Haywood, whom it charges with the murder of Frank Steunenberg., This announcement was made this afternoon by Senator Borah, of the prosecution, and when Clarence Darrow of the defense, took up the di- rection of the arrangement of the time he made ir very clear that directly the State closed, he and :. his associates would move the court for an instruc- tion directing a verdict of acquittal. It Is now anticipated that the State will close by noon; that the afternoon will be devoted to argument of the cx- pected motion of the defense, and If the court rules adversely on the mo- tion. the opening statement in behalf of Haywood will be made by MT. Dar- row on Saturday.
 The prosecution succeeded today in again showing a direct connection with the store of George Petitions in Den yer and Harry Orchard at work on the Bradley crime In San Francisco, and promised to make connectionw with Pet tibone personally by handwriting ex- perts who will be called tomorrow. Original records of the Pacific Postal Telegraph Company were produced, showing that in September and octo- ber, 1904, remittances of $97 50 and S48, Respectively, were made. the afirst by "J. Wolff and the second by "P. Bone from 1725 Stout Street, in Dem yer, the address of Pettibone's store, to H. Green, in care of Peter L. Huff. at 2l1 Taylor Street, San Francisco.
 The State also showed that while at Silver, City, Idaho in 1899, Haywood declared that Steunenberg was 3 ty- rant and a monster, who should be ex- terminated. and by James Kirwin. act ing Secretary Treasurer of the Vest ern Federation Of Miners. that Jack Simpkins and Marion Moore were made members of the Executive Committee of tho Federation in 1905, and that con. troi Of ali expenditures were vested in the President and Secretary Treas urer
 Judge, Wood admitted many of the strongly -worded articles of The Mn CTS Magazine. in which Frank Steunen- berg was bitterly. denounced, and. as one after another they were let in, Borah read them to the jury. These were admitted as showing the animus against Judges Goddard and Gabbert of the Supreme Court of Colorado, whom Harry Orchard swore ne tried many times to kill
 The State introduced in evidence the decision of those judges on the Colo rado eight-hour law and the habeas corpus aplications of Charles Mover.
 Senator Borah also read from the issue of the magazine of February, 1900, an editorial entitled, Another Outrage" and dealing with the all leged circulation of a petitiopAby Gov ernor Stunenberg for continuance of the Federal troops in the mining dis tricts of Idaho. The editorial declared that Steunenberg was being well-paid for prosecuting the miners union, de- nounced him as a Hessian and as an interruptions person, never known to speak the truth. The next exhibit was A long extract from a speech by Ed Boyce, President of the Federation at the time delivered on Miners Day at Butte, Mont, in 1900. Boyce devoted himself mainly to a denunciation of the Standard oil Company in connec- ton with it's invasion of the copper field. Boyce referred to Governor Steunenberg as the hireling of the oil trust.
 Under the heading. "Eight-Hour Law" Senator Borah read an edito- rial calling on the miners of Colorado 10 defeat Judge Goddard at the polls. holding that he was instrumental in upsetting the short day for working men.
 Another article read from the maga- zine included a resolution adopted by the Federation and signed by Haywood and others. denouncing governor Steunenberg for requiring all persons seeking work in the Couer dAlene to renounce af1liation with any union.

 With the opening of court today, the State of Idaho continued the lntro- Auction of evidence supporting the story told by Harry Orchard in the course of the occupancy Of the witness chair for seven days. There still re- main some few points to be corrobo- rated but up to the present the cpain has been woven with skill and nearly every major and minor statement made by Orchard has been corroborated by substantial witnesses The planting of the bomb at the gate of Justice Cod dard, of the Supreme Court of Cobra do. which Orchard said was done at the request of the "inner circle" of the Western Federation, has been corrobo- rated by the Justice himself and the method of his testimony showed clear ly the legal mind of the man, who find ing a bomb at his gate loaded with giant caps and dynamite with all the appliances described by Orchard as an invention of one of his o-conspirators, sealed the evidence in envelopes car ryinR the signature of the finders in cluding the then Adjutant General of the State and then sealed them in a steel vault. The seals were only broken in the presence of the Judge himself who identified them and their contents in open courts himself opening each envelope and himself ac- counting for the explosion in his pres- ence of the dynamite which was dan Gerous to keep.
 Jury Brought In.
 The jury was not brought into court today until after, Judge Wood had handed down his opinion as to the ad- instability of certain articles from the Miners Magazine. The evidence In the case on trial" said Judge Wood shows considerable difference to the case cited yesterday by counsel for the defense. and generally known as the anarchists case.
