THE HAYWOOD TRIAL.

Senator Borah made the closing ar
gument in the Haywood case, a
brilliant effort for which he was highly
complimented, even by Clarence Oar
row and Haywood himself.
Senator Borah began the closing adj
dress for the state in the Haywood
trial, resenting the attacks of counsel
for the defense on his associate, Mr..
Hawley, asserting the trial had been
absolutely fair and denying that the
state of Idaho was making any fight
on labor or the poor.
Clarence barrow, of counsel for Hay
wood, bitterly denounced Orchard, j.
II. Hawley, and every one else con-
nected with the prosecution OF Hay
wood, sneered at education and the
constitution and pleaded eloquently
for labor as against capital.
Forsaking the theory of vengeance
as Orchards motive for the murder OF
former Gov, Steunenberg. E. F Rich
ardson argued that Orchard was in
the employ of the Pinkerton detec.
tive agency when he killed Steunen-
berg. and that the murder was part
of conspiracy to hang Haywood.
This sudden departure was followed
by a tremendous denunciation OF
Capt James MCFARLAND and the
Pinkertons and passionate vitupera-
ton of Orchard, Gov. Gooding of Ida
no, Senator Borah, Gov. Peabody OF
Colorado; in fact, all who have acted
on the side of the prosecution OF
Haywood came in for share of the
avalanche Of Richardson's peroration

CONFLICT is ALL OVER.
Roads Agree To Put Low Rate Int
Effect in North Carolina

Raleigh, N. c., July 23.-The con.
iict between the state and the rail
roads over the new state rate law,
was amicable adjusted yesterday at a
conference between Governor Glenn
and officials of the roads.
The Southern railway and the At
lantic Coast line, through their gener-
al counsel and the stockholders of the
Atlantic Coast line, who had enjoin-
ed that road from putting into effect
the state Lucent rate, through
their counsel agreed to put the rate
into effect Aug. s. An agreement also
was reached to proceed in orderly way
in the courts, and to end pending
cases and indictments.
Governor Glenn last night gave the
following:
1.-THE government considers the vic
tory in the matter of the state against
the railroad as one for state rights
and the people. There were many
things that aided the victory.
First, the righteousness Of the
cause; second, the determination Of
the people through their officers, no
longer to submit to the opposition of
the railroads or the interference of
the federal courts.
"The governments feel that it is
great step forward for state rights
and that If other states will continue
the fight begun in North Carolina
and insist upon their senators and
congressman trying to curtail the,
growing power of the federal courtsl
In the future there will be no trouble
to control the railroads and other cor
porations"
