right ta introduce Pender's testimony
as to his knowledge OF the contents
of the telegram. Judge Wood said
he had no doubt as TO the admissi-
bility OF the evidence, but ruled that
the state must lay the foundation 10
show that the original telergam had
been destroyed. Senator Borah ar.
gued at some length and quoted au-
tl.orities. Mr.. Richardson argced
that there was no possible iule OF
law under which the evidence could
be introduced. For the sake OF ar
gument he admitted that Adams
sent the telegram TO Haywood when
he was stranded and beating his way
back To Denver from mining camp
In California, but maintained that
this could not be construed TO mean
that conspiracy existed between
Steve Adams and Haywood.
The court admitted the testimon,
as declaration from Steve Adams,
whom the state sets up as a cocoon,
spirator.
