 Was any opportunity given you to con- suit with counsel or your fanily?"
 Senator Borah was on his feet here with an objection to going into the matter of the extradition of the prisoners, saylns it was immaterial and irrelevant
 Attorney Darrow declared it was highly important s showing the conspiracy. He contended that the arrests were made by Pinllertons and that the prisoners were turned over to Bulkeley Wells a member of the Mine Owners association, to bring them to Idaho.

 The defense here introduced a series of telegrams and letters which passed between Haywood and R. J. Hanlon, financial secretary of the local union at Silver City. Idaho. The first of these was from Haywood to Hanlon, directing the latter to employ John F. Nugent, now a member of the defense's counsel as at torney for Orchard at the expense of the Western Federation of Miners to protect the interests of the organization at Boise. Hanlon replied that Nugent desired par ticulars. Haywood in reply said that the press dispatches indicated that another conspiracy was on foot to connect the Western Federation of Miners with grave crimes. The federation, he declared, de- tended no one guilty of crime, but in the past found that If it had not de- fende dsome of it's accused members they would have been the victims of con spiracy.
 Secretary Hanlon then wrote to Hay wood and told him MT. Nugent was will ing to take up the case if it appeared there was to be an effort to put the crime on the Western Federation of Miners. Hanlon declared that he thought it un- wise for the federation to employ counsel at the time, as 1t would give the cap italistic press an opportunity to say the federation was concerned in the crime. Haywood wrote in reply that he fully appreciated the delicacy of the fedora tions position and the antagonistic atti- tude of the capitalistc press, but he said tlere was no doubt that everything would be done to point the finger of suspicion at the Western Federation of Miners An objection was raised to this question, but Judge Wood allowed it to be answered.
