ORCHARD ORCHARD INTERVIEW Has MADE TROUBLE At BOISE

as possible and guarded in every possible
way TO prevent any communication with
the outside. It occurred yesterday at
the examination Of one of the jurors
that there was some question Of the
amount Of credence that should be
placed on the testimony of Orchard.
The governor of this state, who has
done things which have been questioned
throughout the. entire United States, if
not the civilized world, having supreme
charge Of the penitentiary Of this state
and his appointee, Mr. Warden Whit
ney, who has at all times been his obedi-
5ent servant and agreeable advisor and
assistant in all that he has done, to
allow Associated Press representatives
and that particular portion Of therneWs-
paper fraternity who are reporting this
case agreeably and cordially upon the
side Of the prosecution, to visit the
penitentiary yesterday to interview
Harry Orchard.
B 1T is as patent as the fact that I
stand here that it was done for the ex-
press purpose of influencing these jury
men for the purpose Of rehabilitating
Orchard, for the purpose Of giving him
5credibility in the eyes of this jury and

The court interrupted to send for the
prosecuting attorney, and when barrow
resumed he suggested that the COVER
nor be called before the. court
Senator Borah said that he declined
to submit to the proposition that the
newspapers. had interviewed Orchard
for the purpose of influencing the jury.
He said they could not control the
newspaper situation. He would not ask
the defense to publish their articles to
suit the prosecution and he was not
going to undertake to control the stu
alton. E.sS= .sr:
! The other development of the day
was the raising of the question as to the
right of the state to enjoy ten per-
enptory challenges. The state had for
merly but FIVE, but at the last session of
the legislature, which was subsequent
to the ASSASSINATION Of Governor Steun-
enberg, the law was amended, giving
the state ten, the same as allowed the
defense. The question was whether
this amendment constituted ex-post
facto law.
After argument the court ruled that
the law was not ex-post facto and that
the state had the right to ten scfal-
lenges. In arguing the matter Richard
son said the weight of authority was
with the contention, Of the state, but
he said that his side intended to make
the most of the point in a higher
court if circumstances warranted, and
he made tie assertion that the legisla-
ture of Idaho had amended the law be-
cause Of the case Of Haywood, Meyer
and Pettibone.
" Both Hawley and Borah denounced
this statement and. the Judge said the
court would not for a moment assume
that the motive Of the legislature had
! been improper.
The fifth perer1ptory challenge, rep
Presenting a total of three by the de
Tense and two by the state, was nlade
late this afternoon and at adjournment
an effort TO fill the place made vacant
was in progress.

mont Wood, who is presiding in the
Steunenberg murder trial, today di-
rected the prosecuting attorney of Ada
county to make an investigation Of the
circumstances under which Harry Or
ehard was interviewed for publication
yesterday, and to take any legal steps
that his inquiry showed to be warranted.
Judge Wood, after his interview with
1.-THE prosecuting attorney, assembled the
bench this morning, and his request Of
COUNSEL for advice as to the manner IN
which the court should deal with the
incident brought from the defense the
charge that Governor Gooding and cer-
tain newspapers, moved BY the dis
closure that there exists a prejudice
against Harry Orchard, had sought to
influence the jury by an attempt 70
bolster up the credence that may be
given to Orchards story.
The defense suggested that Governor
Gooding be cited for contempt. Counsel
for the prosecution defended Governor
lGooding and the newspapers included
within the charges and showed that the
applications for the interview with Or
lchard had been made weeks before the
Examination Of talesmen disclosed the
Iprejudice against him. They in turn
