other French restaurants by acting as
their attorney.

Heney's Statement.
In his opening statement to the

putting plainly before them, consecu-
lively, step by step, the plot to hold
up the restaurateurs.
He told how the mayors influence
was used with the police commissions
ers; of the meeting at the mayors s
house, and of the various meetings at
which the hOld-up was consummated.
I'm the year 1904, with Police Com
missioners Howell, Drinkhouse, Hut

up.
known as the municipal brothel, at
$40 Jackson street, an extensive house
of prostitution, in which Ruef and
Schmitz shared, was raided by Hut
ton; and because of this the mayor
put police detectives on Hutton's trail
and put up a diabolical plot to ruin
him in the eyes OF the people of San
Francisco"
Heney went on to tell how the
prosecution wouiu show that Ruef
and Schmitz plotted to hold the
French restaurants up for a stipulated
sum before they could renew their Ii
censes; how Hutton was dismissed
from the board on trumped up
charges because he would not vote
for the renewal on Schmitz's request,
and how the money was collected
from the proprietors and handed to
Ruef, to be divided with Schmitz.
The trial is proceeding slowly as
there are constant objections and
lawyers squabbles.

NEGRO Wife SLAYER
WILL Be HANGED

Tucson, Arz., June After being
out a number of hours, a jury in the
case of the territory of Arizona VS..
H. J. Groce. "a negro. returned a ver-
diet of murder i'm the first degree
yesterday. He will be sentenced to
hang.
Groce and his wife lived in Dallas,
Texas, where Groce earned an honest
livelihood as a cook By hard labor
and close saving he had accumulated
sufficient to purchase a modest home
in the city's suburbs.
From this home the woman took
her departure, ostensibly to visit her
mother in Tucson, but really to keep
an appointment with a Pullman por-
ter, Jenkins by name, who had been
a lOdger in the house
Groce, it was claimed in the evil
dence, gave the woman money for
the trip and suspected nothing until
ner failure to return set him think
ing. Then came a letter, 1t was
short, but convincing. Il am not
coming back"
He came to Tucson, tried to re-
Sconcile the woman, and on her re-
fusal to be good, killed her.

Defense is Calm
The defense is not worried over the
case, but admits that Orchard did
not tell as much as they expected he
would.
Haywood has made no statement
today, but it is apparent that he will
deny every fact stated by the wit
ness.
His wife and daughters took their
usual places in the court room to-
day.
James MCFARLAND. Of Denver, the
man who secured Orchards confess
sion, is prominent figure in this
case.
To him is due not only the Or
chard confession, but the transforma-
ton in the criminal himself and his
steadfastness on the witness stand
MCFARLAND pointed out to the man
not alone his guilt, but his responsi-
bilities and what reparation should
be made before the prisoner could
be at peace with himself and mis-
Creator.
\ Vast Work.
Then began the careful work OF
proving up the Orchard statements
of making arrests and gathering to-
gether the greatest array of witnesses
ever called for in criminal proceed
ing in this western land, all of which
was done under the personal super
vision of Mr.. MCFARLAND.
With him 1t was not enough that
the one man should be arrested and
punished-he worked back to the
headwaters to the very fountain
spring, with what result the world is
now learning.
For the last twenty years McPar-
land has had charge of the western
division of the Pinkerton National
agency, with headquarters in Denver.
In that time Mcfarland has had the
management of every big undertake
ing in which the agency has been en-
ployed, west of the Missouri river.
His Record.
He is recognized the nation over as
the great specialist in conspiracies
and far-reaching crimes. He is a re-
markable man in many ways His
memory is prodigious, and his intu-
LESSONS in human nature is a never
ending source of wonder to those
who have studied him in his profes-
SiDnal capacity.
Mcfarland has been with the Pin
kertOn agency for forty-tiVe years
Previous to this he had followed the
sed on both sides of the Atlantic.
When Allan Pinkerton, the foun-
der of the agency, required young
alert. intelligent man for service in
the civil war, the seaman Jim" Me
larland, who was about to enlist in
the federal navy, was recommended 70
him, and the daring recruit soor
! made himself invaluable. From
that time MCFARLAND has been with
The agency and had not little to dc
with its rise.
