cution in the Stunenberg murder
trial Friday, entering in earnest upon
the substantiation and confederation
of Harry Orchards testimony, showed
a continuous thread of evidence con,
Meeting George Petitioners store in
Denver with Orchard at San Fran,
cisco engaged on the Bradley murder
plot, partly another direct line by
which it is hoped to show that Hay
wood engaged and paid Steve Adams
for the same desperate work, and
added special touches of confirmation
to Orchards general story.
Officials of the United States post
Offices at San Francisco and Bepyer

brother Mason Of Adams, they
went straight to the Office of the West
ern Union and sent a telegram to
Haywood in Denver.
The defense headed off an attempt
to get the contents of the telegram
before the judge, but the state indi-
Gated that it would return to the
charge later and further develop the
incident when it has broadened it's
foundation.
Adams Produced in Court.
When the Ogden testimony was in
troduced Steve Adams was brought
into court under guard to be identified.
Adams seemed in a defiant humor and
walked to point directly in front Of
the jury and gazed steadily at the
witness confronting him.
Besides it's work on the Pettibone-
Orchard and Haywood-Adams lines
the state produced several witnesses

Boise, Idaho, June 14.-The men
who are battling to save the life of
William D. Haywood and = the good
name of the Western Federation Of
Miners made their greatest assault
upon Harry Orchard Thursday, when,
carrying the reyieW by cross:examina-
ton 81 his life Of crime down to his
Confession, they bitterly assailed his
guiding motives. -..=- 80
Six days they spent in stripping
him before the jury of every shred OF
morality of character, and then, sud
denly turning upon him in final fierce
attack, they fought with every means
known to the legal craft to convince
the jury that Orchard was committing
crime in falsely swearing away the
lives of innocent men in the hope OF
| saving his own. They carried their
attack to the very language with
which the witness answered theil
questions, and everywhere they al
! legged by forceful implication that il
was put into his mouth by men con
trolling him.
Orchard Weeps on Stand.
Orchard broke down when they re

Uriah, that Detective MCFARLAND re
lated to him when he came seeking
confession. He fought to save him
self, but tears filled his eyes and h
rocked unevenly like faintin'
woman. His voice lowered to huski
ness, and he hid his face in hand
kerchief Then he steadied himsel
and went on strongly to the end. H
defended his motives by saying tina
he had finally experienced conversio
and penitence and had resolved t
make all possible reparation by freel
i confessing all. MCFARLAND had tol
him that he was doing a great servic
for the state, and that states wer
kind to men who served them; Their
was no other promise.
