Given By Orchard.


torney appeared at the defendants
counsel table when the Haywood trial
/ was resumed this morning, making
| the tenth of long list of attorneys
engaged in behalf of the accused
miners officials. The newcomer is
Walter E. Mccormack of Chicago
Mccormack has been engaged in
search for evidence for the defense
in Colorado and has been in Boise
only since the defense opened its
case
The first witness today was Mrs.
Lottie Day, who knew Orchard at the
Bellemont rooming house in Denver
under the name of J, Dempsey. Mrs.
| Day said she met Orchard just prior
to the annual convention of the West
ern Federation Of Miners in 1904
Once while she was talking to him,
| Haywood and man named Mcdonald
who was also connected with the Fed
Grafton came in Orchard introduced
| her to Haywood and then went away
| with him. Mrs. Day said that she
was first summoned as witness by
! the state.
Swore to Kill steunenberg.
The witness related conversation
she had with Orchard when the latter
| told her that poverty had separated
him from one woman he loved and
that Steunenberg was responsible for
his being poor and he would get even
with him if it was the last act Of his
life. The witness said Orchard told
her about gambling and said that ne
always kept little money put away,
that is when he made raise" he
put some money away with Peis bone
and drew it as he needed it.
| On cross-examination Mrs. Day said
she now conducted a rooming house in
Cripple Creek but lived most of the
time in Denver. She said she was ir-
troduced to Orchard by PettiAone
whom she knew two years prior TO
1904. Pettibone, she said, never Wis.
tied Orchard.
Opposing Attorneys Clash Again.
| Mrs. Day said that Orchard declared
he would have been millionaire II
it had not been '"for a decision OF
Governor Steunenberg." There was
a clash between the attorneys on
opposite sides when the prosecution
announced it might want to examine
Mrs. Day further at later date. The
defense objected to keeping it's wit
nesses on their own expense after it
had finished with them, Finally
Judge Wood ordered Mrs. Day to re-
main in Boise until released by the
court.
| To Take Care Of Witnesses.
| John d. Elliott, an old soldier. was
the next witness. He said he met Or.
chard on a railway train late in No
vember, 1905, and that Orchard told
him he was the agent of the Mine
Owners Association and that there
would soon be pulled off a plot that
would destroy the leaders Of the
Miners Federation. Elliott submitted
to a long cross-examination. At its
conclusion Judge Wood announced
that all witnesses would be excused
as soon as they testified except those
whom the state desired to remain in
Boise. AS to those he said the state
would pay their per diem expenses.
Editor Mines Magazine Testifies.
i John M. ONeill, editor of the Min.
ers' Magazine, was the next witness.
He declared that Meyer and Haywood
had nothing to do with the magazine.
although they occasionally wrote
signed articles He said that some
times he consulted some of the mem
bers OF the eyecuii-c board as to what
to say i. the magazine, but usually
he consulted no one.
Il Some of the editorials were read on
crss-examination and O'Neill said he
. wrote them and was responsible for
them One Of these contained this ex-
preston "The press dispatches re.
port the dissolution of Steunenberg
via the bomb route" Another editor
| ial In infammatory terms detailed the
] outrages in the bull pen In 1899, at.
; tributing to Steunenberg the responsl-
bility of the "black brutes of soldiers
/ who outraged the wives and sisters OF
, the miners and who refused the re-
! quest of a miner who, with the dew
of death upon his brow, asked for a
, minister and was told he could make
his confessions in hell"
W. F. Davis, a leading member OF
the Federation, was called as the
luncheon adjournment was taken.
