RICHARDSON TO QUIT CASE
OPPOSED TO DARRoW's METH
obs IN IDAHO TRIAL.
Report That Nusent Is Also Dropped,
and Chicago Attorney Given
Full Charge.

Denver, Colo, Aug. 3.--Attorney p.
#. Richardson, of Denver, who was
one of Haywood's counsel in the IA
nous trial at Boise, Idaho, has with
drawn from any further connection
with the defense of officials and others
of the Western Federation of Miners
In cases now pending before the Idaho
courts. He is quoted as saying that
he will not work with Clarence Oar
row, the Chicago lawyer associated
with him In the cases, any longer.
"The whole sum and substance OF
the matter is that l cannot endure
Darrow's methods" said Richardson.
Il do not sanction socialism, at least
not when 1t is coupled with the trying
of a legal suit, especially when that
case is murder case and means a
mans life. Darrow's closing speech
in the Haywood trial was rank. II
was enough to hang any man, regard
less OF his innocence or guilt"
Advices from Boise, Idaho. received
Thursday night are to the effect that
Attorneys Richardson and Nugent had
been dropped from further connection
with the remaining cases and that
barrow had been given full charge.
Practically all the unions of the city
were represented at a meeting Thurs
day night which had for It's purpose
the perfection of plans for honoring
Haywood on his arrival from Salt
Lake City this evening. A popular
demonstration will be made In which
it is estimated between $4,000 and
$4,000 people will take part, Haywood
will be met at the union station and
will ride to his hotel In carriage
drawn by six white horses, symbolical
of his innocence of the crime with
which he was charged.
An effort will be made to have Hay
wood address the populace somewhere
along the line of march and also to
submit to reception, when all who
wish may shake his hand.
Although President Meyer has been
released on bail he takes the position
that it would be ungraceful for him
to participate in the celebration and
will leave Haywood at Salt Lake and
journey westward.

NEW ATTACK ON SUGAR TRUST
BIZ In Equity Filed for an Accounting
Of Its Business.

Trenton, N. j., Aug. "a bill in
equity which calls upon the American
Sugar Refining company to give an &C.
counting of its business for the past
four years was filed before Chancellor
Magic Friday on behalf of George H
Earle, Jr, receiver Of the Pennsyl.
vania Sugar Refining company, OF
Philadelphia.
The suit, 1t is. said, is the only one
of the kind ever filed in this country
and the step taken by the receiver OF
the Pennsylvania company may be
the means of opening an entire new
field for investigating the trusts. The
suit is separate from that for $780,.
100000 damages which Mr.. Earle in.
stituted against the American Sugar
Refining company in New York. Mr..
Earle, who was appointed ancilary
receiver for the Pennsylvania Sugar
Refining company in New Jersey,
seeks by his suit to compel the Amer.
lican Sugar Refining company to make
an accounting of it's profits since De.
lcember 10, 1903, when 1t secured con,
troll Of the Pennsylvania company. He
holds that in securing the controlling
interest in the Pennsylvania company,
the American company became trus.
tee for the concern and is responsible
to 1t for an accounting.
The American Sugar Refining com
pany never operated the Pennsylvania
Sugar Refining company plant, but the
receiver for the latter company holds
that the old law which makes it neces
sary for a trustee to make profits and
render an accounting of funds placed
in its custody, applies to the Ameri
can Sugar Refining company.

A PASSENGER TRAIN Is
DITCHED NEAR COTOPAXI

Train No. 5, on the Denver and Rio
Grande, a fast west-bound passenger,
was wrecked near Cotapaxi, thirty
miles west of here, Saturday Afternoon
at 4 O'Clock. The train was running at
the rate of 80 miles an hour, when a
break in the gearing caused the rear
trucks OF the second engine to de-
rail. All of the cars in the train were
derailed and five overturned. Twelve
passengers were injured. The chef on
the dining car was badly burned by
hot greese. Mrs. A. Dolly, of Whittier.
Calf, was the most seriously hurt,
several Of her ribs being broken.
When the cars went over the pas
sengers made a scramble for the win
dows. Some fear of fire was enter
tanned, but all escaped without burn
ing. Passengers in the Pullman cars
were not seriously injured, most of
those hurt were riding in day coaches.
The Joe Newman company, which
had just finished an engagement in
the members, however, were injured
and were able to continue their jour-
ney to the west.
Inc front engine was cut from the
train and was run to Cotapaxi. where
a wire report was made to head
quarters in Pueblo, Relief trains with
physicians were sent out from Canon
City and Salida and the wrecking
outfit was taken from Pueblo. All of
the injured passengers were taken to
Salida on q special train.
Passenger train No. 4, east bound,
was standing on siding In sight Of
the place when the wreck occurred.
At the time OF the accident the train
was climbing a grade. One hundred
and fifty passengers were on the train
and the few casualties are regarded as
little short of miraculous. and due in
measure to the fact that the acci-
dent occurred in cut and the cars
fell against the side of the bank in
stead of being entirely overturned.
The wreck tore up 700 feet of track
and 1t was necessary to transfer the
passengers to train No. 4, and to
the second section of No. 5.

dition to those whose injuries were

ANOTHER TEST CASE
WITH THE M,KS CLUB

This concluded the examination of
witnesses.
After the testimony was in Mr.. Tay-
lor asked that a single fine of $500 be
imposed. in order that a test case
might be taken to a higher court
Mr.. Dawson then stated that he had
new case every day. He insinuated
that Mr.. Taylor had so stated.
The man who says that is liar
said Mr.. Taylor. Personally 1 know
nothing of the plan. will be gov
erned entirely, however, by the direc-
tions of Council. II Council directs
a new suit every day the case will be
brought"
Mr. Dawson then made a PROPOSE
ton, on reciprocity basis, to with
draw the objection which was filed
August goth to the advancement of the
injunction case on the Supreme court
docket, providing the City would prom
Use not to prosecute every day. Mr..
Taylor made a counter proposition, Of
fering to use his influence with Coun-
Gil to that end, If the objection to ad-
vance be withdrawn. and If the attor-
neys for the defense would hurry a
record and place the present case be-
fore district court judge for a speedy
and final decision. This was refused
by the defense. and peace negotiations
then ceased.
In the informal discussion Mr.. Tay-
lor expressed his regret that the in
junction case had been heard before
Judge Shaffer of Colorado Springs. 1t
has recently been learned by the City
authorities that Judge Shaffer Is an
Elk and a member of the Elk's club
in Colorado Springs. MIR. Taylor ex-
pressed regret that the case had not
been continued before Judge Bailey.
In his summing up for the defense,
Attorney Dawson asked the Magis-
trate to consider the decision of Judge
Shaffer in the present case. Judge
Shaffer held in his disposition of the
injunction proceeding. that the Elk's
club. bonifide organization, has a
right to dispense liquors to its mem
bers and Is not amenable under the
ordinance which forbids the selling or
giving away of liquors without a prop
er license. Mr.. Dawson argued that as
this decision has not been reversed, 1t
becomes and Is local law. and that
the defense should be given the bene-

erwise, however, and the fine was i'm
posed accordingly.
Both sides agreed that the present
proceedings will be valuable as test
case. insomuch as 1t will decide the le-
gality OF the clubs operation. The case
now pending before Supreme court
will decide only the right of the City
to institute summary proceedings
against the club. as public nuisance.
The cases, brought under entirely DIFF
