Newspaper Offered in Evidence.
While Cogsweu was on the stand the
state offered in evidence a copy of the
Idaho Tribune published at Wallace and

tanned a three-cOlunn account of the
bl0wing-up of the Bunker Hill and Sulli-
van mill. which the state desired to place
before the jury in answer to Attorney
DarrOws opening statement that the de-
tense would snow tDaL the crown WHICH
attacked the mill was an unorganIzed
mob. In the argument which arose over
the admissibility of the newspaper, Attor-
neys Hawley for the state and Richardson
for the defense had a sharp clash and
personalities were INDUCED in for the
first time since the trial started.
Judge Wood took the matter under ad-
visement, indicating that he probably
would not admit the paper in view of the
fact that the defense had introduced no
evidence in support OF the opening state
ment by counsel for the defense.
