Boise, Idaho.--Wm. n. Haywood,
charged With the murder Of Frank
SteunenberR. left the witness chair
after he had been under examination
six hours, the time being equally d.
vided between prosecution and de-
fense.
Haywood's testimony in his own b.
half practically closes the side Of the
defense. Counsel for defense an
nounccs their close and the state will
begin the rfbuttal unless motions 10
strike out certain parts Of the evil
dcnce should be brought forward by
the defense. Counsel for the state
announces their willingness to stay by
the instructions Of the court TO the
jury and will not consume the time
with arguments on motions to strike
out.
There is prospect now that the
case may be brought to conclusion
within two weeks
The cross examination Of Haywood
brought out large attendance. When
Clarence Darrow, Haywood counsel
closed the direct examination Of his
dlient and quietly remarked, lyon
may cross examine" the prisoner wiz
ness turned in his chair and faced Mr..
Borah, his pale face and jaws firmly
set. There was stir in the court
room and then an absolute silence.
BorAh's cross examination, Away
rapid Are, was more than usually
quick bat from first to last Haywoo.s
preserved complete self possession and
control.
Notwithstanding the subdued air
Of consideration, Of quiet speech and
courteous bearing maintained by Sen
ator Borah and the defendant there
was not moment throughout thu
three hours of cross examination that
the atmosphere did not tingle with
possibilities. Once when Senator Bo-
rah pressed Haywood as to his senti-
ment toward former Governor Steun~
enberg, Haywood said quietly, and
with . smile:
II felt nc different towards Steun-
enberg, senaspr, that l do toward you
or any Of these present =,
Borah looked up quickly, bpl hs
did not smile. He said very quietly,
"yes. I haye been given u UNDER
stepa eQmething oA that sokt ;, end
id not pufs2c the sa65ect.
Much Of the testimony wal . repc-
titicn in detail Of what MoSPr said.
Haywood, however, made no Stffort
to deny his knowledge Of Orcha}d and
his affairs, or his connection with
Simpkins. He WAS pressed closely ~
to the passage Of kilograms relating
to the engagement Of counsel to de-.
fend Orchard and j. came out that hr
knew Simpkins had retaincd counsel
but that there vas no record Of any
report from Simpkins to the officials
Of the federation.
Like Mover, Haywood had never
heard Orchard make threats against
Stsnsnenberg though he had heard o.
Orchards assertion that he had an
interest in the Hercules mine.
Haywood explained the draft 10
Simpkins for 800 on December 81 |
1905, on the ground that 6impkins had
left the money with him for safckecp-
ing. Haywood had not heard from
6impkins since.
Haywood in many particulars, cor-
drmed Orchard, but where the feder-
alton was concerned, the witness was
smphatis and complete in his denials.
Hs showed no hesitaney or desire -
ecnceal the fact that Orchard had

Hess Initiated

The Phoenix Democrat of re-
cent date has the following to
say about one of our fellow
townsmen.
In response to a call issued by
the president of the Badger Fight
ers' association, announcing
that c. Hess, Jr., of Holbrook
had just "blown into town" and
was anxious to take the first
degree of the association, lovers
of the game early in the evening
began to congregate around the
Ford hotel to be present at the
initiation.
Bets were placed on both sides,
and after a short talk by the an
nouncer, c. Hess agreed to pull
the badger, at the same time
making a liberal bet on his
choice Another prominent man
being equally sure that the dog
had a good chance decided to
hold him.
The barrel was raised and
Hess, giving a yank, the badger
was drawn from the hole and
the fight was on. 1t was a short
and decisive battle, the badger
getting a little the best of it at
first, but as hide began to fly
they were pulled apart and the
fight declared a draw:
G. F. Austin refereed the fight
and in a neat little speech, an
nounced that Hess, having taken
the first degree, was all right for
the second degree, but Hess de-
clined to proceed further with
the ceremonies. The "Bi" degree
is usually taken with pleasure by
prospective members when once
they have taken the "Byght" de-
gree, but Hess declined to comply
with that part of the ceremony
and is therefore not a member of
the Badger club.
