LOYALTY OF
STUDENTS
DEMONSTRATION IN ASSEMBLY
THIS MORNING WHICH
SHOWS FEALTY.
President TisdeI Denies the Assertion
That There 10 Lack Of Loyalty In
Student Body and and Is Given
Ovation Of No Uncertain Meaning
During Assembly.

At the assembly Of the students Of
the university in the auditorium this
morning, President Tisdel referred to
the recent examination by State Elk
aminer Henderson of the charges rf
graft" preferred by G. e. Morton,
formerly a member of the faculty.
The president said that from his OBJ.
servations Of the result of hat inves,
tigation, there was never anything t.
the charges whatever-merely a differ
ence of opinion upon the part of a
member of the faculty concerning the
administration of the affairs by his
superior.
There Is No D~isIoyalty.
In reference to a publication in a 10
cal paper, an enemy of the university,
a few days ago, the president stated
that if the writer had known as much
about the alleged "~disloyalty of stu.
dents to the institution" as the presi.
dent himself knows, he wouJ not
have made the charge. There is no
disloyalty and certainly the students
are to be commended for their loyalty.
Heartily AppIauded.
The remarks of President Tisdel
were listened to with close attention
by the students and we're heartily ap-
plauded, the demonstration being of
such a nature as to leave no doubt
that the students are not only loyal to
the institution but desired to rebuke
any imputation to the contrary.

sULLEN AND MoRosE AND MAY
REFUSE TO ANSWER CUES
TIONS WHEN PLACED
UPON THE STAND.
After He Had Made Confession, Which
He Later Repudiated, He Went
Back With General Wells and Dug
Up Skeletons of Some Men Who
Had Been Murdered and Of Which
He Told-Orchard Still on Stand.

Boise, Idaho, June 11.-There is
much speculation as to what Steve
Adams will testify when placed on the
stand as a witness for the state against
w. d. Haywood. Adams is said to be
sullen and unlikely to answer any ques-
tions.
Dug Up Some Skeletons.
1t is said hat after making a con-
fession, which he subsequently repudi-
ated, he went to Colorado with Gen
eral Buckley Wells and produced evil
dence, including skeletons, that clear
ed up the mysteries of several disap-
pearances..
Where He Stood to Fire Shot.
He was taken to Telluride, it is said.
where he pointed out the spot where
he stood to fire the shot that killed
Arthur Collins, manager of the Snug
gler-Union mine. The weapon used
was found, it is said, where he had
secreted it.
Not Depending Upon Adams.
Counsel for the prosecution say they
are not depending upon Adams to re-
peat his confession. but have without
his testimony sufficient co%rroborative
testimony.
May Be Tried in Colorado.
1t is said that should Adams be &C;
quilted of the murder for which he is
yet to stand trial in this state, Colo
RADIO authorities will make requisition
for him and try him on a charge of the
murder of Collins.

PART To BE PLAYED
BY ADAMS IN CASE
that it had in part been inspired by
Detective Mcfarland.
and Ian ceruapt

that it had in part been inspired by
Detective MCFARLAND.
Orchard and Jap Servant.
There was at first an effort to show
that Orchard had never seen or heard
of the Japanese servant who cleaned
the porch at Linforth flats the morning
Bradley was blown up until McPar-
land told him about him.
Waited for Jap to Leave.
Orchard denied this, and swore that
he saw the Japanese, and determined
to wait for the Japanese to leave be-
fore he placed the bomb.
How Building Was Blown.
Then the defense endeavored to dis
credit his story of the purchase of
dynamite from the Judson Powder
company and the entire claim that a
bomb was used by showing that the
walls of the. Linforth building were
blown outward, and that Bradley had
been blown into the street.
Bradley Stood Sideways.
Attorney Richardson demanded that
the witness explain how the explosion
had these effects. Orchard said he
could not explain, but expressed the
opinion that Bradley was standing
sidewalks to the bomb and the ex-
plosion followed the line of least re-
s%istance, and it carried him into the
street.
Made Diagram Of Entrance.
At the request of the defense, Or
chard stood before the jury and drew
a diagram of the entrance to the Lin
forth flats.
Came Back as Soldier.
Orchard told Of returning to Denver
from San Francisco, saying he dis
guised himself as a soldier and wore
glasses.
Don't you know soldiers never
wear glasses?" asked Richardson.
81 didn't know it, no." said the wit
ness.
Jumped On Roosevelt.
Then Attorney Hawley, for the state,
chimed in: you forget Roosevelt at
San Juan, Mr.. Richardson"
He was not a soldier!" shouted
Richardson.
And he wasn't at San juan" de-
clared Nugent of the defendants
counsel.
Orchard Shows Emotion.
For the first time since the cross
examination began Orchard this morn
ing showed decided emotion. 1t was
when Richardson put the witness on
the rack for his neglect of his W. de-
serted wives.
Said Haywood Failed.
Orchard insisted that Haywood and
Pettibone promised to care for his
Cripple Creek wife, but failed to
do so. -
Voice Grew Husky.
When he admitted that he knew
his first wife had worked at cheese
making for a living, his lower lip quiv-
cred and he swallowed hard on the
lump in his throat, and his answers
were short and his voice very husky.
Failed to Break the Story.
Richardson continued the grilling
for fifteen minutes, but failed to break
down the witness.
