place like home," then beautify it on
this memorable occasion and make

MURDER TRIAL.

actual commission Of the crime, when
It was known that neither Of them had
been in the state for months, for if
Orchards confession be true, then
under the Idaho law they are in fact
equally guilty with Orchard.
No sooner had the federation Off
cials been lodged in the Idaho peni-
tentiary for safe keeping than feder-
alton attorneys from Denver and Spo-
here they sought to release the pris-
oners by invoking the aid of the writ
of habeas corpus. They filed the first
application in the district court, where,
after argument, the writ was denied
An appeal was then taken to the state
supreme court of the United States
About this time application was made
for the writ in the United States dis
trict court in Boise before Judge
Beatty.
After hearing Judge Beatty denied
the writ, and an appeal was taken to
the supreme court of the United
States, making two appeals pending
before the court of last resort.
Finally the court handed down an
opinion sustaining the decision of the
Idaho courts in holding the prisoners
to answer to the charges and stand
trial in this state.
Although that decision was render
ed last fall, the mandate did not ar
rive until the middle of March.
For the last six months, Meyer, Hay
wood and Pettibone have been con-
fined in the county Jail at Boise. They
were allowed to take exercise on the
court house lawn several times each
day, are in apparent perfect health,
and look much heavier than when
they were brought here from Colorado.
Orchard was kept in close confina-
ment at his own request. He was said
to be afraid of dynamiters, and at his
own request he was never taken out
unless accompanied by three or four
guards. While Orchards confession
is considered the chief testimony
against the prisoners, it is said that
fcipher letters and kilograms from
them found in Orchards trunk in the
Caldwell depot a few days after his
arrest, may be of even more import
ance than the testimony of Orchard
himself.
