 Did you try?"
 No, sir. After the wagons passed and the governor had gone, I went and got the bomb. The streets were almost de- serted. We threw the bomb in the river and reported to Pettibone that we had failed. He said it was too bad Lay for Hearne.
 After this we tried to shoot Governor Peabody, hanging around hls house for long time, but not getting an opportunity. We also tried to shoot Frank Hearne of the Colorado Fuel and Iron company. Haywood said Hearne was trying to fix the legislature against and would be a good man to get out of the way. He also said that Dave Moffatt, president of the First National bank, was another. He said he was convinced that Moffatt was behind the people who was fighting the Western Federation of Miners"
 Adams and Orchard watched around Moffatt's house for some time with gun, but accomplished nothing.
 After Judge Goddard.
 We were also told to get after Judge Goddard who, Haywood said, was instru- mental in defeating the eight-hour bill. f,-tff taa1 by the supreme court of Colorado.
 At the fall elections Peabody was suc ceeded by Governor Macdonald. Peabody went to live at Canyon City. Mover, Hay wood and Pettibone all three told me to keep after Peabody It was arranged that l should become life insurance solicitor" Orchard declared he got recommenda- tions for that position with one of the big agencies in Denver from MT. flaw kins, an attorney and partner of E. F. Richardson, one of the attorneys now representing Haywood and from J. c. Sullivan, president of the State Fedora ton of Labor
 Iur Richardson listened keenly to this part of the witness story and made notes | upon it. Haywood surrounded by his family, sat stold at times, but on oc- ! casions leaned far forward in his chair. | gazing steadily at Orchard with his single | eye
 | Orchard said ne uec1ueu 10 prepare u | bomb to place beneath Peabodys bed 1 room window at Canon City, Col.
 Bomb Exhibited.
 1 The state here created something of | sensation by producing in evidence the | lead casing of the bomb. It was the size ] of two-gallon can. Orchard identified l it. He said he had shown the casing to | Pettibone in Denver and loaded it in the | basement of Pettibones store, the lat l ter assisting him. Thirty pounds of giant 1 powder were used.
 l Pettbone, Orchard declared, gave him I s1OO before he returned to Canon City with the bomb On his way to the lat I ter place a companion heard clock ticking in the grip with the bomb and wanted to know what 1t was.
 q told him jokingly that it was a bomb and I was going to put 1t under | Peabody if I got chance" Orchard l went on. But when reported this con versation to Pettbone, he told me l had better not try 1t on Peabody at that time He said, however. that he wanted something pulled off before the convention-that we must have something to show for the money we had spent.
 Bomb for Gabbert.
 "Pettibone and I then went to work l and prepared a bomb for Justice Cab bert. We made it our of half gallon syrup can. using ten pounds of giant | powder.
 l "Pettibone and 1 planted the bomb in ] vacant lot which Judge Gabbert crossed i on his way home. We left the wire out of the bomb and to this we inteded fasten- 1 ing pocketbook. The idea being that | Judge Gabbert would pick up the purse l and thus upset the bottle of sulphuric acid inside the bomb. We tried one day to fasten the purse. but Judge Gabbert came too fast and we had to leave 1t alone.
 | "Pettibone had to go next day to Salt Lake City to attend the convention of the l Western Federation of Miners leaving me l to attend to Judge Gabbert He said we must certainly do something before the | convention. I was afraid to touch the old bomb so prepared new one. As Judge | Gabbert started out the next morning, | I rode ahead of him on a bicycle and 1 fastened the pocketbook to the wire I l rode off down town and did not hear | an explosion until an hour afterwards. man named Wally had picked up the l pocketbook and was killed. Judge Cab | bert had passed without noticing it.' | When he reported the result to Petit | bone, the latter said 1t was hard luck" | Orchard told the details of his move |
