market Moderately increased supplies
of stock cattle would meet a good re-
ception at this market.
The week opened on a declining
market for live hogs which was a
condition against all expectations. It
was thought generally that the COM
ing on of favorable weather for corn
planting would largely curtail the
market movement for hogs but contra
ry to this the total supply reported
in sight was about the same as a
week ago. Packing interests were
bearish at all points and succeeded in
forcing a reduction 5 to 1-2 cents.
Hogs were of good quality, largely
in mixed droves but running to quite
strong weights. Sales ranged from
s6.4O q s6.45 for the bulk with top at
the latter figure.
Receipts of sheep were moderate at
all points and were made up largely
at this market of wooled Colorado
lambs. Trade was fairly active and
prices unchanged.

ORCHARD
INTERVIEWED

Boise. Idaho, May 1.-THE inter
view given by Harry Orchard yester-
| day to the Associated Press mas
provea the falsity of the statement
that he was kept incommunicado and
that he was insane, or that a confes-
sion had been forced from him. Dur
ing the evening the doors of the pen
itentiary were opened to the newspa-
per men for the purpose of showing
these charges to be false. The ap-
pearance of the man and the state
ments he made completely exploded
the charges. Orchard said that any
thing he may have said was of his
own free will and not caused by any
threats OF promises of immuaity Or
chard denied that he had a personal
grievance against Governor Steunen-
berg. as mas been alleged, but refus-
ed to state the nature OF his alleged
confession There IS much specula-
will Ibe admissible
The sixth day of the trial OF Hay
wood commenced at ten o'clock this
morning. Judge Wood. before the ju-
ry was brought il, drew attention
to the interviews with Orchard pub
lisned in the morning newspapers,
which he said undoubtedly was calcu-
lated to influence the witnesses and
the jury. While this matter was un-
der discussion the witnesses and jury
entered
The Judge said: while such pub
lications appear to the court as not
precisely in contempt, they are new
ertheless calculated to influence the
jury in this cause Something must
be done to prevent a recurrence of
this if we are ever to get a jury.
The court is much surprised at this
publication at this time, and would
be glad to hear from counsel on the
subject"
Counsel for the state said they had
always been opposed to the publica-
ton of anything tending to prejudice
possible jurors. Attorneys for the de
fense exonerated counsel for the
prosecution from what mad occurred,
but Richardson claimed that sudden
ly making Orchard accessible at the
time the jury WAS being selected, af-
ter seclusion of fifteen months was
evidently done to influence prospec-
tive jurors. The fact that the Cover
nor allowed the newspaper men to
have the interview at this time was
for the oxnreSc nTrDOSa he said of
gaining credence for Orchard. He and
Darrow vigorously denounced the ac-
ton. Judge Wood sent for the coun-
ty prosecuting attorney and instruct
ed him to make an investigation of
the facts connected with the Orcn-
ard interview and to take such ac-
ton as he found warranted.

GUNSUL SAID TO HAVE
WON CASE AGAINST PAGE,

The following from the Albuquerque
Journal of Wednesday will be of inter
est to Roswell people, Maynard Gun
sui being well known here and having
a host of friends IN this city:
While the final DEGREES in the case
of the Gallup Electric Light company
versus Gregory Page ct al. will not
be signed until today, it is understood
that the decision of the district court
will be generally in favor of the
plaintiff The inference is based up
on statements made to the attorneys
in the case by the court indicating
what his findings will be in the case.
While it cannot be positively stated
until Judge Abbott issues the formal
decree, it is rumored that the decision
will mean an injunction against Page,
Harry Coddington and the other de-
PENDANTS from engaging in the cleo
trio light business in Gallup.
The public is familiar with the de-
tails of the suit brought by Maynard
Gunsnl and J. G. Darde1, of the Gal
lup Electric Light company and others
The plaintiffs allege that after selling
the Gallup Electric Light plant to Gun
sui, Page entered into a contract
with the latter not to engage in the
electric generating or supply business
in Gallup in competition with plain
tiff. Gunsul alleged that Page is the
financial bacl1er of the Pacific Improv
ment company of which Harry Cod
J. A. Gordon, Gus Mulholland
and Palmer Ket1er are the ostensible
incorporators. The defense repre-
sented by Attorney E. w. Dobso1 has
denied altogether that Page had any
thing to do with the new company
and the decision, it is understood will
sustain the contention of the plain
tiff that Page is the financial hacker
of the defendant company.
Gunsul in his complaint also sued
for damages alleged to have been sus-
tanned by reason of the competition
of the Pacific company. What the
decision of the court will be as to the
damages has not been intimated.
Attorney w. B. Childers appears
for the plaintiff in the case.
