dictment was returned In July, 1905.
The decision Of United States District
Attorney Ruick TO begin q series Of
trials Of hank officials With this old
indictment instead Of the recent Boise
one is the result OF tactics praOtioed-
by the defence In asking for con
tinuancOe.
Attorney Ruick said the charges In
this indictment are practically the

for the defense and West was a Wit

objection, asking for time Ia which

that Attorney Ruick said they had

Then the defense said they would be

JURY
is SLOW WORK
But One Man Secured on Regular
Panel

Boise, Idaho, May l7.-During
the one session OF the Haywood trial
held yesterday IL talesmen we're ex-
amined before a satisfactory juror was
secured to replace William Van Ors-
dale, the grocer, at No. 2, who was
excused on a peremptoTy challenge
from the state. AS court adjourned
the defense exercised its first chal.
lenge by relieving Allen Pride. q
farmer at No 8. Mr.. Pride had testi-
fed during his examination that be
had invited to dinner the deputy who
sreved him with a jury summons.
He and the deputy discussed the case
for some time, the talk Ringing prac.
tically upon Harry Orchard, who Is
to be principal witness for the state.
A taleaman was called to replace
Pride, and his examination began
this morning.
As the work of jury selection pro.
crosses, the difficulties In the way of
completing the panel seem ever to be
increasing. One after another Of the
talesmen were excused because of the
strong opinions they entertained IS
to the guilt or innocence of the men
accused of conspiracy in connection
with the death of former Governor
Steunenberg. One man called for
service, but dismissed by the court
indicated that he was prejudiced
against the state because Of the var
iuus acts attributed OF the prosectu.
tion during the past year. Each side
still has nine peremptory challenges
to exercise, and there remain 81
members Of the special Venire to draw
from.
