LAWYERS EXPRESS THEMSELVES
Defense Denounces Gov. GOoding-
Prosecution Makes Reply.


Richardson first exonerated the
prosecution from all connection with
the incident and then charged that aft
er having been kept incommunicado
for fifteen months had been allowed
TO talk at a time when his credibility
was being questioned in the examina-
tion of talesmen, and to talk only to
the representatives of the press which
he alleged was sending out trial re-
ports colored against the defense. 1t
was done, he said, for the express
purpose of influencing the jury, and
lit was dastardIy outrage upon the
defense" 1t was patent, he alleged,
that the governor did not intend that
the prisoners should have a fair trial.
barrow followed, and reiterated the
charge that the interview was permit
ted for the purpose of influencing the
jury He said that Orchards assertion
that he had not been promised immuni-
ty was absolutely untrue. barrow said
the governor should be called before
the court
Prosecutor Hawley then spoke. He
said he had just finished reading the
interview, and suggested that possibly
both the defense and the court were
under a misrepresentation. He de-
Tended the Boise papers, and told Of
the constant circulation throughout the
county Of papers in the interest Of the
! defense which had maligned the prose
cntion, so as to create a false I'M
preston as to the motive of the pros
cution and to mis-state what purport-
ed TO be the evidence in the case. He
could not see how the interview could
influence the opinion Of the jurors.
Counsel Borah said that the appli-
cations for interviews with Orchard
were the first things presented to the
| authorities by the newspaper CORE
spondents when the trial first began
! 1t had been reported - not without
purpose, either-that Orchard was in
\ n certain condition. and the news men
wanted to discover If these stories
were true. He referred to the fact
TO prove the fairness Of the Boise
i ewspapers-that it had refused TO
/ publish the story that Meyer haa
served term in the Illinois psnitsRa &
airy.
The court took the matter under adj
yisemeHt. and the work Of getting 8

the question whether the state had a
right TO ten peremptory challenges

number of such challenges had beer

Judge and Defense in the Hay-
wood Case Object TO
Orchards Talk.
PROSECUTION NOT so WORRIED
Counsel for the Defendant Wants
Gooding Cited for Contempt
State Lawyers Intimate That at the
Worst the Defense Has No
Right TO Throw Amy
Stones.

Boise, Ida, May 1S.-Judge Fremont
Wood, who is presidingat the Steunen-
berg murder trial, directed the prose
cutting attorney Of Ada county to make
an investigation Of the circumstances
under which Harry Orchard was in
terviewed for publication Thursday
and take any legal steps that his in
curry showed to be warranted. Judge
Wood drew attention to the publica-
ton Of the interviews when he ascend
Cd the bench, and his request Of coun-
sci for advice as to the manner in
which the court should deal with the
incident brought from the defense the
charge that Governor Gooding and
certain newspapers We're trying to
bolster up Orchards credibility. and
the suggestion that the governor be
cited for contempt.
View of the Prosecution.
Counsel for the prosecution defend
ed Governor Gooding, and the newspa-
pers included within the charges, and
showed that the applications for the
interview with Orchard had been made
weeks before the examination of tales
men disclosed the prejudice against
him. They in turn charged that while
some of the talesmen were entering
court yesterday morning men indirect
~ connected with the defense had
made remarks within their hearing
that were calculated to influence them,
and this affairs is also to be made the
subject of inquiry by the county prose
cutting attorney.
Thinks Something Must Be Done.
In calling attention to the Orchard
interview Judge Wood said that per-
haps their publication was not an at,
tempt to influence the jury, but as IL
was calculated to influence jurors he
felt that something must be done to
prevent a recurrence of such a thing
in order to secure a jury. James H.
Hawley. for the state, expressed his
regret over the publications of the in
terview with Orchard, and disclaimed
responsibility for it. The court drew
attention to the utterances of Govern
or Gooding in connection with the
statement that Orchard Is not to have
| immunity for his confession, and at a
suggestion from Richardson that the
defense could not speak freely in the
presence Of the jury requested all
talesmen toleave the room for an hour
