 That's all," said Darrow of the de- fense.
 Hold on,' called Senator Borah. who was conducting the examination for the state.
 Did the fact that you were summoned l by a Plnkerton change the postoffice records in any way?''
 No sir" laughed the witness
 The next step in tracing the letter was the introduction of Miss Pearl Moore l of the Denver postoffce. Miss Moore l identified an entry which she wrote on 1 the received registry book" which show l ed the receipt of letter from "J Wolff" l 1725 Stout street, Denver" addressed to U. Dempsey, San Francisco"
 The record was admitted in evidence. Do you know who lived at 1725 Stout l street at that timer" asked Senator Bo- 1 rah.
 From Pettibone's Residence. MT. Pettibone," replied the witness l Miss Moore was briefly cross-examined. She said she was subpoenaed by the l Pinkertons.
 "AnI did they tell you that Mr. Petit 1 bone was in business on Stout street." asked Darrow.
 No. sir replied the witness, who | was then excused.
 This en6ed the tracing of the letter, aud ] the prosecution turned to the task of corroboratlng Orchards testimony as to l his experiences In the Vindicator mine | at Cripple Creek Clarence l.. Harrah was called to the stand. The witness worked in a cage in the Vindlcator mine 1 in 1903 at the time Orchard said he and | t.,f. 0f,A Af a carload of powder they had discovered. l They were discovered by a cage man, l but drove him back by shooting at him. Hurrah told on the stand today of hav- l ing discovered man In one of the tun- nels.
 Shot at Cage Man.
 The man shot at him and he went back l to his cage. Harrah said he saw only 1 one man. The incident occurred 800 feet 1 down in the eight level. On cross-exam- inatiol Harrah said he reported the mat 1 ter to the mine superintendent. No one l was found. The military later in the l night made a search of the entire mine, 1 but found no one.
 "Who first talked to you about this matter in connection with this case?" 1 asked Mir. Darrow. "A man who said he was a United 1 States deputy came to the mill in Colo | rado City, where I was working, on l May 20'
 Harrah said he had nothing but the mans word as to his authority. The deputy said it was his business to sub poena people, Harrah could not remem- l Der the name the man gave. The deputy told him to go to Denver to the Pinkerton | detective office. He talked with Mir Pret- 1 lyman there and made arrangements to l come to Boise. Counsel for the state and defense got l into a wrangle over Harrah. MT. Darrow claiming the witness was trying to shield l the Pinkerton's connection with his tes- l timony
 Senator Borah said there was nothing of the sort, the witness could not under stand the questions. Harrah denied any intention to dodge anything. | During Harrah's testimony some wom- 1 an among the spectators gave an audible | hiss. Judge Wood said if there was any | demonstration of any kind in the future l he would clear the room
 Recess was taken with Harraw still 1 on the stand.
 After recess Harrah was asked but a 1 few inconsequential questions and eX- cused.
 Cage Men Testify. | Charles Johnson, another cage man in l the Vindieator mine, followed Harrah l Johnson was in the mine when the ex- | plosion killed Superintendent Mccormick and shift boss Melville Beck At the time of the explosion the mine be- | ing worked with non-union men.
 The cross-examination by Attorney Rich | ardson was directed to an effort to show 1 that the company kept powder stored on | the sixth level. where the explosion oc- cured Johnson said some powder had been stored on the eighth level, but that so far as he knewA none was stored on l the sixth
 Johnson said he was first spoken to about coming to Boise by Floyd Thomp- son, secretary of the Mine Owners as- sociation. He consulted with the PinkeT- tons before coming and was furnished | with expense money.
 Here the prosecution veered to new course. introducing witness to corrobo- rate Orchard when he said Haywood told him he had sent Steve Adams to Cali fornia to get Fred Bradley in 1903.
 Steve Adams Produced. J. H. Mcintyre, a special officer of the Southern Pacific company. testified to ar resting Adams and another man in a | sealed fruit ear which had arriver in Ogden from California. The men were heavily armed.
 The witness was confronted by Steve Adams. who is here under arrest. He identified Adams as one of the men arrested. Orchard testified that Haywood had said Adams got in some trouble en route home and he had to send him some l money at Ogden.
 The defense objected to Mclntyres testi- | mony having nothing to do with the Steunenberg murder, but Judge Wood ruled to admit it.
 Mclntyres testimony was corr ]. by City Jaior Snyder of Ogd | charge against Adams and hls 5i | ion was that of trespassing.
 The next witness was ]. F. Per ] detective of Ogden. Over the | the defense thc witness was al
