A WARY WITNESS
IN cRoss-ExAMINATIoN HE RE-
FUSED TO COMMIT HIMSELF.
WAS EMPLOYED BY Mine OWNERS
His Explanation Was that He Was
Double Crossing Enemies of
Western Federation.

Boise, Idaho-The complete confess
sion of Harry Orchard in the trial of
Haywood involved a record of crime so
monstrous that when it had been fully
disclosed as the chief reliance of
the prosecution for convicting Hay
wood, the defense found latitude on
cross-examination which would have
been impossible had the witness been
confined to the murder of Steunenberg
alone, which he testified ne had COM
mitted for money paid him by the in
ner circle" of the Western Federation
of Miners, including Haywood.
Under cross-examination, Orchard
admitted stealing sheep he had no use
for and also that he had boosted of
committing a highway robbery in San
Francisco he had never committed at
all.
Tales Are Hardly Credible.
The feature of the trial so far has
Deen the testimony Oh Orchard.
According to his own testimony, he
is a tiend incarnate. The tales that he
continued to tell from the witness
stand upon cross-examination and in
which he invariably figured as one OF
tne principals are hardly credible, and
unless the prosecution brings forth
strong evidence to support the story
of his crimes, which, he said, were
nnlrlV oil inctipotnl hu fln NTnrtnrT1
Federation of Miners, it is hard to
conceive how a jury of fair-minded
men could convict the accused.
With a sang froid which possibly
has lever Leen seen before in any
criminal under similar circumstances,
Orchard, by his own confession, stands
as the slayer of 1S men, has admitted
that he abandoned wife and child, and
in his cross-examination has added ar
son to his already long list of crimes.
In fact, according to his own testi-
mony, which was brought out in a
grilling cross-examination, this mar
has confessed to almost every crime
beginning with lying and petit lar
ceny. .....
He admitted that frequently he told
of exploits which existed only in his
own imagination, but were related
with a view of gaining the admiration
of his friends for the temerity he dis
played in the commission of crime.
Orchard Is a Wary Witness.
For several days IN succession Law
yer Richardson, for the defense, pur-
sued the cross-examination of Or
chard concerning his confession of the
series of murders and plottings. The
witness, with remarkable stability, ad-
hered in the main to his story and
shrewdly refused to commit himself as
to precise dates.
1t was in regard to his having been
secretly in the employ of the mine
owners that the testimony brought the
most damaging admissions. This the
witness tried to explain by the claim
that he was embarrassing the enc
mics Of the miners federation.
Haywood, in a telegram to the an
nual convention OIL the Western Fed
Grafton Of Miners at Denver, said that
Orchard was "the greatest liar of the
twentieth century, and that he in
tended to take the stand to refute him,
adding that he would be a free man
inside of six weeks.
