Boise, Idaho, July 1S.-The exodus
or witnesses in attendance at the Hay
wood trial commenced in earnest to-
day. 1t is estimated that five hun
1red witnesses have been in town at
Inherent times. Argument on the
admissibility of certain evidence oc-
cupied today's session of the court.
1t is expected that the case will go
to the jury by next Wednesday even
ing or Thursday. The defense rested
Immediately after court opened this
morning without calling any witness
in sur-rebuttal.
Judge Wood announced that the
opening argument for the state to the
jury would be made tomorrow by At
torney James II. Hawley. The jury
was not brought in today.
Beside arguments as to the admis-
sibility of certain evidence, the con-
sideration of instructions to be Civ
en- the jury occupied considerable
time. On this subject Judge Wood
heard the views of the opposing coun-
sci, who were requested to give their
opinion as to the materially of the
evidence showing deportation OF min
ers and employment of detectives by
mine owners and citizens of Colo
rado.
Accuses PinkertOns.
Darrow was the first to speak to-
day. After referring to the latitude
allowed the state by the court, Dar-
row took up the Coeur d'Alene trou-
bles, saying that Haywood at that
time was an obscure member of a To-
cal union of the Federation many
hundreds of miles from the scene Of
disorder.
Darrow spent some time discussing
and citing authorities as to the ma
teriality of evidence showing threats
against Governor Steunemberg on the
nf "A rA Ia oh, a
the Independence depot explosion Ill
rectly to Detective Sterling. He
charged also that PinkertOn detectives
had Joined unions and fostered riot
and disorder.
He closed with a whirlwind appeal
spiracy against the Western Fedora
ton. Senator Borah will reply to
Darrow's argument this afternoon.
Detectives Inseparable From Issue.
AS to the employment of detec-
tives, Darrow declared most, or prac-
tically, all of the testimony in the
case was secured by the Pinkertons,
and it would be impossible to dis
associate them and their methods
from the issue.
He said that the defendant was
compelled in refutation Of the charge
Of the murder Of Governor Steunen-
berg, TO meet all sorts and conditions
through Orchard to bring in some
thing about an alleged attempt to
wreck a train, and of course this de-
fendant was held up as the guilty
party.
Did They Cause Wrecks?
Was it immaterial for US to show
that an attempt was made by detec =
tives in the employ of the railr 1Id
company and mine owners assOcia-
ton TO cause this wreck? / thllk
not. Neither was 1t incompetent for
us to show that the men who per-
petrated the crime merely wanted to
create an impression or appearance
of attempted train WI ecking 50 as TO
trump up another charge against the
Western Federation"
AS to the Bradley explosion, Dar-
row said it was entirely competent
to produce evidence that the eXplo-
sion was caused by gas. 1t was also
proper to show that the Vin1.cator
incident might have becI an accident
rather than design.
