HAYWOOD THE GENIUS
And STRENGTH OF PLOT
Is What the Prosecution will Say in Its
: Opening Argument TOday--Defense
is Dissatisfied with Jury

Teral part of the Western Federation
of Miners, the particular part of Will
liam d. Haywood, alleged in connec-
tion with the murder of Steunenberg.
In the work of securing the Hay
wood jury the court has been in ses-
sion fifteen days. One hundred and
fifty-siX talesmen have been exam
ined. OF this number "a have quail
fled, including the twelve men now
in the box. Juror Orric Cole was ex-
cused on account of sickness and J.
e. Tourtellotte was excused after re-
examination on the ground of oppo-
sition to capital punishment.
A brief description of the jury fol
lows:
Thomas B. Gess-A farmer, now
engaged in the real estate and insur-
ance business of Boise, occupies the
first chair. He is democrat, born
in Missouri and is SO years of age.
Cess knew former Governor Steunen-
berg well and while he said he had
formed an opinion in the case, he as
serted that he would be able to lay
this aside if selected as a juror.
Finley McBean-In the second
chair, was born in Scotland and emf
grated to Canada. He is SO years old
and owns a ten-acre farm five miles
west of Boise. He is a republican. A
powerfully built man with sandy hair
and moustache, his ruddy complexion
and strongly-built frame give evil
dence of years of hard work and ex-
posure. Mclean, in reply to ques-
tions as to opinion and prejudice,
said that the more he read and heard
about the case the less he knew.
Samuel ID. Gilman-Is 81 years old
and owns a ranch near Star, in the
southern portion of Ada county. In
politics he is a republican and came
to Idaho from Oregon. Gilman is a
grizzled blonde and his rounded
shoulders and stopped frame show
that he followed the plow the greater
part of his life.
Daniel Clark-A farmer and stock
raiser, is 32 years old, the youngest
man on the jury. He was born in
Missouri, but came to Idaho with his
parents when he was six months old.
He is reputed to be a man of consid-

STRANGERS
OPINION OF
THE STATE
A Californian Who Is Greatly
Pleased With Nevada and Its
Outlook.

''It is interesting to watch the peo-
pie who arrive in Ely daily" said one
of the citizens today, as the train
pulled in. Il met man recently
who came from the central part of
the state of California. | asked him
what he thought of Ely.
| have not been here very long
he replied. but | can say, and | say
| it honestly, that the town is much
better than | had anticipated. You
people here don't realize how well
this town is known. From the part
OF California that | came from
know of many who are coming here
to see what they can do. Everybody
in that section of my state speaks
well Of Ely. In fact, it's the town
of Nevada today. Ely will be more
than camp, as you people in Ne
yada like to call your towns. Ely,
mark me, will be city and in a few
years the population will be some
thing that your Nevadans can proudly
boast of.
"'I watched very carefully all
along the way. The country is vastly
| different from anything L ever eX-
Iperienced and at first my Impressions
We're not favorable to Nevada. But
there is something in the makeup
of the people out here that makes you
| feel at home. 1t drives away the
| blues and a fellow hasn't been here
a day before he forgets that he ever
| lived anywhere else and is glad he's
| in Gods country. That's my opinion
of Nevada. My parents lived in Ne
yada, and although they have spent
the last twenty years in the heart of
California, where flowers bloom all
the year round and where there is
more than sage brush, they have
never felt at home. There is some
thing lacking that they just can't ex-
plain. If the people of California
possessed the energy and get-up of
your citizens their inland cities, with
al the natural advantages nature has
given them, would be much larger
| and prosperous.
"These remarks coming from
stranger" said the citizen, certainly
speak well for us. The best of it all
is that he meant it, but on account
of his desire l do not care to divulge
his name. He intends to be one of
us, however"

Telephone Question Not Settled

At the regular meeting of the
board of county commissioners yes
terday all the county bills were ap-
proved and ordered paid.
Attorney Devecmon again ap-
peared and laid the proposal of the
telephone company that wishes to
build line from Ely to Blackhorse
before the board with another re-
quest for a franchise permitting the
company to go ahead with the con-
struction work.
The commissioners asked that a
bond be put up guaranteeing the
speedy completion of the Work, and
as no action at the time was suggest
ed by the company the matter was
held over for decision until tomor-
row.

SEAMEN STRIKE
ABOUT ENDED.
MANY GO BACK
MINISTER OF MARINE IN FRANCE
WILL NOT PROSESCUTE
DESERTERS.
TO INCREASE THE PENSIONS
Three Thousand Iavre Men, How
ever, Refuse Governments
Offer.

PARIS, France, June 3.-The eX-
tended strike of the seamen has Vir-
tually come to an end with the capit-
ulation of the strikers, who are eX-
pected to resume woGk at the home
and colonial ports tomorrw morning.
Captain Lapeyre, one of the strik-
ers' delegates, conveyed this informa-
ton to Minister of Marine Thomson
at late hour this evening. He in
formed NJ Thomson that the strike
committee, assembled in Paris, had
telegraphed the following message to
all ports
1.-The delegates have been in con-
ference with the minister of marine
and the naval committee of the cham
ber of deputies. The minister has
abandoned the prosecution of DESERT
ers, and he has requested the naviga-
ton companies to reinstate all The
officers and men. The members OF
the naval cominittee assured the
delegates that M. Thomson's PROPOSE
ton in the matter of pensions would
be improved. The delegates, there
fore, Immediately proposed that the
strike cease"
In the course of his conference
Thomson declared it was impossible
to accede to their demands. He said.
however, that any proposition would
be considered if the strikers returned
to duty Immediately, in which case no
punishment would be meted out and
the ship owners would be requested
to retain both officers and men in
their former positions.
4 x,F aIUsffA
and his promise that no penalties
would be inflicted apparently con-
vinced the strikers that it would be
wiser to accept the governments
proposal to increase the pensions of
seamen from $40.80 to $72 and of Of
ficers from $156 to $500 a year, than
to continue to paralize commerce.
Later in the day delegates received
similar advice from the president of
the naval committee of the chamber
of deputies. At the end of this con-
ference the delegates talked the mat
ter over together with the result that
the message unreservedly advising
their comrades to return to their du-
ties was drawn up and sent.
The only possibility of hitch APP
pears to be that the men might de-
cline to follow the advice of their
delegates, but persons who are well
informed, regard this as unlikely, and
there is reason to believe that work
will be generally resumed tomorrow.
Dispatches received here say that
meetings were held this evening at
various points, at which it was voted
to continue the strike, but it is evil
dent these steps were taken before
the receipt of the messages advising
the cessation of the strike.
HAVRE, June 3.-Three thousand
strikers held meeting here this
evening after the receipt of the mes
sage from the delegates advising the
men to resume work. In spite of this
recommendation the meeting voted to
continue the strike until the pensions
