Peary Makes Changes In Plans TO
His Next Dash North.

Boston. Commander Robert E.
Peary has decided upon some changes
in his next attempt to reach the north
pole, according to an interview with
the explorer.
'The main improvement over the
last PLAN" said the explorer, will be
that / shall continue farther to the
westward along the North Grantland
coast and then when take to the ice
shall bear to the windward and thus
offset the continuous drift to the east.
"The second great difference will be
that | shall so arrange matters that
there can be no recurrence of the un.
fortunate contingency that cost us
the prize last year. There will be no
separation of the parties this time as
there was last, and shall have the
relay system so perfected that at any
time, in any event, can reload am.
pie supplies and press forward with
the pole party. For the rest there
will be the dogs and the Esquimaux
just as upon the former expedition.

Man Who Confessed to Many
Crimes Now Reads Only
Religious Books.
IN An Interview He Says That He Is
Being Well Treated, and Denies
That the Alleged Confession
Was Obtained BY Force.

Boise, Ida.-Harry Orchard, the
prisoner-witness upon whom the state
Of Idaho chiefly relies to prove its
charge that an inner. circle of the
Western Federation Of Miners planned
in conspiracy the murder OF
Governor Steunenberg, broke his
long silence on Thursday, and for over
half an hour discussed himself and
his Imprisonment with representatives
Of the press, whom he had expressed
desire to see.
Orchard denied that he had been
submitted to any mistreatment during
his long confinement, denied that du.
ress or force had been used upon him
to secure the statements he has made,
and denied that Detective MCFARLAND
and the officers of the state have
promised him immunity for his con-
fessed crime as reward for the value
Of his alleged confession in the hands
of the state.
Orchards manner and conversation
during the interview tended to
strongly confirm the assertion that he
has been reconverted to and is deer
In the zeal Of the Christian religion.
The illustrations used nv him tn ex-
press change is the kind of books
he reads were Christian-like in char
acter and religious in tone.
Orchard Is perfectly sound and

brain. II there was ever anything in
the reports that he was breaking in
health and mind, there is nothing now
In his appearance or manner to give
