COlored Man Was Last Witness in the Haywood Trial This
 Morning
WILL ASK ACQUITTAL

Boise, Idaho, June 21.-The Hay wood trial was resumed at half past nine this morning. After colored man had testified that he recognized Haywood as the man who purchased a horse from Orchard, the state rested its case at 1G:20. Adjournment was taken then until this afternoon when the defense will move for acquittal The state failed to secure the re- ceipts of the Western Union Tele- graph company. showing the trans Nfers of money from Haywood to Steve Adams, but they had a telegram showing that they would be forth coming. The defense agreed to ad- nit them when they arrived After the presiding judge had ruled against the admission of the dissenting opin- ion to the Mover habeas corpus case the state rested and the way was open to the defense.
 Boise, Idaho, June 21.-What is expected to be the last day of the direct evidence to be produced by the state of Idaho against William b. Haywood, the secretary treasurer of the Western Federation of Miners, charged with the murder of Frank Steunenberg, former governor of Idaho. will be occupied by the evi- dence filling in the gaps left open because of the absence of witnesses or documents. More documents are expected to-day and other delayed .coroborative evidence will be intro duced. The state will go back to the San Francisco chapter of Orchards story and may produce the record of the sale of the gunpowder with which Orchard says he made the bomb which he says he exploded at Alfred Bradley's door. This will complete the corroboration of this chapter.
 So far many statements made by Orchard in his confession on the stand have been corroborated. He told of the houses he visited and the rooms he occupied in San Francisco; he told of experiments with the pe- culiar bomb which, he says was in- vented by Pettibone. He told of re- ceiving money from Pat Bone" who. he said was Pettibone; he told of the poisoned milk; he described his plans to blow Bradley and possibly his whole family to their death with bomb loaded with dynamite; he gave his hotel address, and each statement has been corroborated by witnesses whose testimony has not been suc- cessfully assailed in their cross ex- animation.
 The defense will not attempt to deny or contradict Orchards state- ments that he Is many times a mur- derer or that he is guilty of crimes of which he stands charged, but they maintain their client. Haywood, had no connection with them and today or tomorrow will move that the charge against Haywood be iismiss- ed because the state has failed to show his connection with any of the crimes of which Orchard has told or to connect him with the specific crime of which he stands charged.
 IT luc dCtiOu Oi tHt ueIShse lO uls- miss is denied, the defense will com mence it's innings on Monday next. Clarence Darrow, of Chicago. will make the opening speech and will present the case for the defense. Then will follow theevidence. Already some fifty witnesses are here and that they will contradict Orchard in many lar ticulars Is foregone conclusion. The defense will be conducted by MT Darrow and he intimates that there are surprises to come. The evidence to-day. according to the states coun- sel, will be important ia the linking of Haywood. The real struggle be- gins with the opening of the case for the defense and the outlining of it's case. It is possible that the court will adjourn until Monday when an ad- journment is taken this afternoon.
