cause of his death. At his deathbed
We're his daughters, Miss Mary Nor
gan and Mass Cornclia Morgan. both
of this city and his secretary. J. o.
Jones
Mr. Morgans home in Alabama was
at Selma.
John Tyler Morgan was one of the
most distinguished members of the
United States Senate, and was so rec
ognzed by all parties. He was born
June 20. 1924 He went to Alabama
when nine years of age. receiving his
education there. He was admitted to
the bar in 1S45, and began the prac
tice of his profession. He rapidly

Is Orchard Really Repentant7

Boise, Idaho-After the horror Of
Orchards recital of the murders he
committed has measurably subsided
the really painful feature of his testi'
mony is his assumption of religion.
This is not done in a boastful, os-
tentations way, but by indirection, yet
so clearly does he seek to convey the
belief that he has had change OF
heart and is now an humble follower
of the lowly Nazarcne that nobody is
in doubt as to his meaning.
For example. when the correspon'
dents were admitted to an inter
view with him about ten days before
the trial commenced-Orch having
been prepared for the visit in dress
and behayior-he made it clear that
he was no longer reading trifling,
trashy novels or the lighter literature
with which the uneducated usually
while away their weary hours; but
that the lives OF Christian martyrs and
of men who had achieved greatness
in Christian works constituted his
mental pabulum. Again he maintained
that about the only thing Mcfarland
said in their frequent conferences
was to buoy him up with religious
exhortations and appeals, for the sake
the truth. The press now recognizes
that Orchard has assumed the role Of
the penitent sinner.
This feature of Orchards bearing
has diagreeably affected many church
members in Boise. 1t has become the
subject of considerable unfavorable
comment. Church members would, Of
course, desire repentance from crimi-
nails, however hardened; but when
such a monster as Orchard processes
a change of heart through the efficacy
Of the Word, they naturally look for
some vidence of genuine contrition
from the person making the profess
sions.
Next to Orchards recital OF his
murders the shocking indifference he
displays in telling of them, and his
sodden, passionless replies when the
scores of other people he might have
murdered had not his plans miscarried
are suggested, has attracted the at
tention Of the thoughtful who attend
the trial.

BOY DENIES ORCHARDS STORY.
Young Neville Viii Swear His Father
Did Not Help Blow UP inde-
pendence Mine.

Cripple Creek, Colo-If Charles Ne
Vile. the sixteen-y ear-old boy. and he
main support Of family. testifies TO
what he has told his mother. the state
ments Of Harry Orchard on the wit
ness stand will again be branded as
falSehoods
He goes to Boise TO tell the truth,
to vindicate his dead father OF having
anything to do with the blowing up
OF the Independence depot and tell all
he knows" said Mrs J. J. Neville, wife
of the late Jack Melville in referring
to her son. Charles. who has been sum
moned as Il witness for the state in
the Haywood trial.
Mrs. NesilIe said she did not desire
TO have her son go as a witness in the
trial, but he has been called, and be-
fore leaving for Boise remarked:
Mother, you would not think as
much of me if | did not go and let
them know that father slept with me
all night aid did not have anything TO
do with the Independence depot
She said that when she left her son
before he took the train for Idaho she
kissed him good by and told him he
had nothing to fear and to tell the
truth. Mrs. Neville then remarked
that to great extent she believed
Harry Orchard in submitting evidence
was Deliberately lying. She said that
IN Sunday, June 5, 1904. the day before
the Independence depot explosion. her
husbanF. son and Harry orchard left
with camping outfit for a prospecting
trip to Wyoming and that the three de
parted from independence just after
dinner and exactly ~: IS p. NJ Accord
ing to the statement of her boy, she
says the party en- route to Wyoming
camped out just before darq at lie Roy,
small toSnsite below Clyde.
She further says that the boy, who
slept next to his father in the wagon
box. knows that the elder Jack Ne
vile, did not leave camp during the
night, as when he awoke at daybreak
his arm was resting over his fathers
shoulders She says that Charles
found Orchard in the same position in
the wagon when he tyouns Neville)
arose on the morning OF June 9Th. the
day of the explosion. as when the
three campers had retireu the night
before. The woman says that her son
is of the opinion that Orchard could
not have gotten away during the night,
blown up the Independence depot and
returned to camp before the boy
awoke.
Mrs. Neville lives with her four
children at Independence. Charles,
the Oldest child. is employed at the
Isabella assay Office. She is running
a boarding house and cares for her
three girls, ranging in age from eight
to thirteen years.

Colorado Boy Among the Drowned.

Washington.-SiX bright young mid
shpmen, fresh from the academy at
Annapolis. all attached to the big bat
tleship Minnesota, have been drowned.
The list of dead contains the name of
Philip II. Field of Denver. appointed
from Colorado on the recommendation
OF Senator Patterson, and who was
graduated from the academy last year
The conclusion was reached at the
Navy Department that either on ac-
count of the lateness of the hour of the
return trip the Minnesota's launch in
her haste had been driven hard into
the hevy sea that prevailed in Hamp-
ton Roads last night, or that the little
boat has been run down by some
giant tramp steamers that make use
roads as refuge in time of storm.
While the launch carried a good
sized party, no one has been found who
can say exactly how many occupants
the launch contained.
The men in the launch appeared to
be in high spirits after an evening of
dancing. How the launch, buoyed up
by so many air-tight compartments,
could have been lost is yet a matter of
speculation One theory is that it was
run into and cut in two by a passenger
vesesl. which may have passed COM
pletely over the unfortunate launch.

Witness Shows Decided Emotion.

Boise, Idaho.-For the first time
since his cross-examination began
Harry Orchard has showed decided
emotion. 1t was when Attorney Rich,
ardson put the witness on the rack
for his neglect to his two deserted
wives. Orchard insisted that Hay
wood and Pettibone promised to care
for the wife at Cripple Creek, but
had failed to do SO. When he admit
ted that he knew his first wife had
worked at cheese making for a living.
Orchards lower lip quivered, he swal-
lowed hard on a lump in his throat;
his answers were short and his voice
very husky. Richardson continued
this grilling for fifteen minutes, but
failed to break the witness down.
When Orchard resumed the stand
Attorney Richardson continued to
question the witness about the at
tempts he made upon the life OF Fred
Bradley in San Francisco. Orchard
said that he roomed near the Bradley
home, being able to overlook it from
his bedroom window.
The confessing witness declared
that he had bought some dynamite for
a bomb before the attempt to poison
Bradley with strychnine in the milk
failed. Orchard thought 1t was the
Judson Powder Company that he
bought the explosive from. Asked the
Of the clerk who waited
On him, Orchard said 1t was a young
ash looking man.

Swear Orchard Did Not Buy Powder

Boise 1daho.-Depositions from the
Judson Powder Company of San Fran
cisco will go far toward shatterng the
testimony OF Harry Orchard given by
him on the witness stand,
The witness for the prosecution
stated that he purchased ten pounds
of dynamite with which to blow up
the Bradley home from the San Fran
cisco store of the Judson company.
The dispositions secured by the de-
fense and taken from the records of
the powder company show that no ten
pound lot of dynamite was sold any
where near the date fixed by Orchard
as the time he boughe the powder.
