be home the following Friday. He
said he was on his way home with his
uncle and was two blocks behind his
father when the explosion occurred
l.. J. Bowman, James Russell and
Steve Dempsey, proprietor of the Pa
cific hotel at Caldwell, traced the
movements of Orchard and Simpkin.
The latters was identified by a pho
tograph, which will be the first ex-
hibit offered in evidence by the state,
and was known to all the witnesses
as Simmons" Dempsey identified
the hotel register, where Orchard as
Hogan and Simpkins as Simmons,
had signed their names on November
8, 1905, and it was marked for iden-
tification.
The defense objected to practical
ly all the days testimony except that
relating to the death of Steunenberg
on the ground that it was immaterial
and in no way connected with the de-
PENDANT.
Several conversations of Orchards
were objected to on the ground that
they were in no way binding upon
the defendant. Judge Wood, how
ever, permitted all of the testimony
to stand on the undertaking of the
prosecution to later show the con-
nection.
When court sits at 9 o'clock to-

mony as to the events at Caldwell
and then Harry Orchard will take the
stand. Orchard is to be brought in

the crime itself were called to locate
Harry Orchard, who went to the town
as Thomas Hogan at various local
hotels and around the Steunenberg
home and to show that two months
before the crime John l.. Simpkins, a
member of the executive board of
the federation, had Joined Orchard
and had lived with him for several
days in the same room.

broken to fragments by the great
force of the explosion, while the skin
that covered them was unmarked.
John G. Rice, N. S. Ellis and A

traced orchard about the town at va
rious times before and after the
crime, and then Julian Steunenberg,
son of the dead statesman, to tell
how Orchard had, three days before
the murder, inquired of him about
his fathers movements.
Julian Steunenberg is a strong

his face and he shielded his eyes,
