The coming of R. j. Kennedy of New

ISOLATED Press work in Boise during
the Meyer Haywood Pettibone trials,
is an Indication of how the case IL
viewed by the Associated Press, which
necessarily gets its ideas of values di-
rect from the 500 papers 1t serves
Mr.. Kennedy has for the past sew
eral months been general superintend-
eat OF the system, and before that had
for year been night manager in the
New York Office. He will be assisted
by an efficient force.
One of these is Martin Egan. who

ing train brings additions to the very
large number Of people connected with
the case who are already on the

That there might be some delay has

go on with the trial in May OF last
year by the dismissal of the appeal
mentioned.
They acted within their legal right
in the refusing. but the refusal should
have precluded themselves or their
friends complaining OF the delay"
Attorney Darrows Statement.
ON the cause OF the delay Clarence
barrow, of counsel for the defense. had
this to say;
"The defendants have not only been
ready for trial but have insisted on
trial all the time, since the indictments
were returned IA months ago. Every
motion for continuance has been
brought by the state and has been re-
sisted by us.
after the men were brought TO
Idaho, writs Of habeas corpus were
asked in the state court and the federal
court to cover any question OF jurisdic-
ton that might arise. Both of the
cases were appealed to the supreme
court of the United States, and the
cases advanced for as early hearing
as we could get.
"The United States statutes provide
where an appeal Is pending to the SUI
preme court Of the United States, no
Judgment or execution can be carried
out pending that appeal.
"As applied to this cast, this statute
means that II the defendants had been
convicted and sentenced to death inn
prisonment in the penitentiary, the
sentence could not have been carried
out until the supreme court had pass !.
ed upon the appeal but in the mean
time the courts Of Idaho had the same
right to try the men while the appeal
had been disposed Of.
III there could be any doubt under
the statute, which there could not tina
supreme court OF the United states
expressly decided the matter in this
way in the case of Mrs. Rodgers, Of
Vermont, who was tried and convicted
pending such an appeal"

Many Detectives in Boise.
(Capital Evenlng News.l


Boise people are not discussing the
merits and dement's Of the Meyer Hay
wood Pettibone cases, nor are they
showing any unusual interest In the
cases other than to note what Is going
on by way of preparation.
The case of the State of Idaho VS..
William D.. Haywood will be called
Thursday morning. May O., and already
great many strangers are in the city
whose occupation is not known. The
offices of the attorneys for the state
are guarded day and night by special
officers and Sc evraPli nektroednmf
officers and several Pinkerton detec-
tives have been here for over week.
1t is reported that rs deputy sheriffs
have been sworn in to maintain the
peace and to assist In case any trouble
should arise. Detectives and special
agents are in evidence about the feder-
alton attorneys and they appear to BE-
busy.
Expects No Trouble.
A Pinkerton man said today that be-
tween SO and rs men from Colorado
are in the county. many OF them being
in Boise. When asked II he thought
there would be any trouble. he ridiculed
the idea and said there is not the
slightest danger.
He added. however. that the safest
and best plan to prevent trouble. was
to be prepared to meet 1t IL II should
arise. and the most thorough prepare.
tions have been made. An ofiicer said
today that at given signal 200 armed
men would be on the street in mo.
ments time II required.
The matter of securing a jury 1t is
recognized win be very dificult While
some attorneys think a jury viii be
obtained and the teial entered upon In
two weeks, others are equally positive
that 1t will take month.
BY the terms of a law passed last
winter, the state Is given the same
number Of challenges as the defense,
which gives the prosecution big adj
over the old system that pre-
viously prevailed.
Changes at Court House.
At the court house Sheriff Hodgin
will make several changes. The big
tables and chairs VIII be removed to
make room for smaller ones inside the
bar and an effort win be made to ac-
about so representatives Of
the press.
Outside Of Boise there appears to be
more interest manifested in the COM
Ing trials than is shown here. The
Eastern press is already full OF hot
air stories. One sent by the Hearst
people follows:

Defense Causes Delay.

James H. Hawley, the leading coun-
sci for the prosecution, was asked to.
day to explain the reasons for delay
in the trial of Haywood, Meyer and
Pettibone. Much comment has been
caused throughout the country by this
delay.
1t has been charged that the state has
wilfully caused the delay and that the
prisoners have been kept In confine-
ment without trial for an unwarranted
period.
Mr.. Hawley said:
''The revised statutes of the United
States, treating of appeals to the
United States supreme court from tn I
United States circuit courts in habeas
corpus proceedings where a prisoner
is held by state courts. makes null
and void any action OF the state court
pending an appeal.
THE great majority OF courts OF last
resort hold any action upon the part
Of the trial court absolutely void until
the decision Of the higher courts has
been actually rendered.
1T will be seen therefore that If in
May. 1905, we had proceeded to trial in
the trial could before the appeal had
been rendered the defendants would
have been discharged as they could not
. second time be put in Jeopardy Of
their lives.

who will try the Haywood case, but as
his decision is not appealable, it is not
thought that this will cause any post
ponement.
When Governor Steunenherg was
assassinated, the Mine Owners assoc
citation offered a reward of $4,000 for
the arrest of the murderer. Later this
amount was returned to the Mine Own
ers' association by Governor Gooding
with the statement that the state or
Idaho would defray the cost of the
prosecution of the murderer or muir
derers, who ever they might be.
The defense fund raised by union
labor throughout the country and. as
an emergency fund. by the Miners
Federation, is reported to be very large
and the total cost of carrying on this
case from first to last will be enorm-
Gus.

Statement By Pinkerton.

This trial edition" evidently is to
be rushed to the part Of the country
most concerned with the trial.
Robert A. Pinkerton said this after
noon that it was only another mani
festation of the propaganda of the
federation to arouse sentiment for the
accused men.
''They are trying 1t East, West, North
and South. wherever they think 1t will
do the most good" said Mr.. Pinker-
ton. "They are trying 1t In every way
possible. We have nothing to say
about the book Of course, now. II ex-
ceeds legal limits, but that It another
matter. I do not know Friedman. 1
do not recall that he was ever an en-
ploye. I have not read what he has
written.
"These men are beginning to realize
that the fate OF those who are ac-
cused is to be left to the jury in a
court room afr trial, and they are
trying to shape the trial."

Review Of situation.

Stripped of the conclusions drawn
all Of which are favorable to the men
and condemnatory to the detective
agency, and Of assertions which do
not appear to be supported by docu-
mentary evidence, the book pretends
to give picture of the labor situation
in the mining districts of the West
during the years 1902 to 1905. 1t shows
Titanic struggles between the employ
ers and employees in many industries
in Nebraska, colorado, wyoming, Ida
no, Arizona and California.
It refers sllghtingly to john Mitchell
Of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea, once and finally it lays bare. or
pretends to lay bare, the inside work
ings of the detective agency, its
methods and manners.
It riddles the accusation that there
was ian inner circle" in the Fedora
ton which directs the attacks. and
uses Mcfarland as a central figure for
its condemnation.
'The Pinkerton Labor Spy" is the
title of the work.

to the Pacific coast in prefence to
European tours by reason of her
extensive acquaintance in the west
and her knowledge of conditions,
Mrs. Weatherred is well qualified for
the work she is following.
When the Portland Journal sent its
famous party of Oregon girls to Ho-
nolulu Mrs. Weatherred was in
charge of the party and but recently
she was asked to chaperone party
of Hawaiian young ladies who will
return the Oregon call this fall.
The Daily Oregon Statesman Of
Salem says:
Mrs Edyth Tozier- Weatherred, who
is one ofthe most Travelled Amer
leans, and thoroughly familiar with
the beauties of her own country, will
leave the latter part of this week for
the Hawaiian islands, where she is to
act as chaperon for a party of young
ladies from Honolulu, who will come
to this country
1t will be remembered that Mrs.
Weatherred, chaperoned the Oregon
girls to Honolulu two years ago,
when the Portland Journal inaugu
rated a popularity contest, and she
has just returned from a second trip
to the islands with a private party
of young ladies of San Francisco, so
that she is very familiar with the
duties ahead of her
From her frequent visits there, she
has learned much of the people and
/ is enthusiastic over the culture and
refinement she found among Hawaii's
lest people. Particularly was she
of the young women, not only in
singing but in conversation. The
progress of the people there she said
might be inferred when it is known

came from Hawaii. and was for
time in Salem, in the job Office of
Mr. Griffin, a pioneer of 1892, and is

There will be ten or twelve young
ladies in the party, some of whom,
are princesses, and who are being sent
from Hawaii by leading news
Iaper there, to return the call made
by the Oregon girls. The Oregon
Honolulu girls will meet them in
Portland where sort of grandsrally
and reunion will be held The party
will be the guests of the Oregon
state fair for couple of days, and
will also visit other points of inter-
est about the capital
Following is the itinerary: The
party will leave Honolulu on August
q and seven days later arrive in
Victoria, where they will be enter
tanned, as indeed they will be at the
various points visited. From Victo-
ria they will go to Vancouver, b. c.,
Bellingham, Seattle, Everett, Olym-
pia, Tacoma, Portland, Hood River,
La Grande, Salem, Sacramento, Los
Angeles, Redlands with side trips to
the beaches, then to Mexico and back
to California where they will visit
Mt Lowe, Palo Alto. Berkeley, Santa
Barbara, and San Francisco, from
which point they will sail for home
some two months after arriving in
this country.
