Orchards Past a Secret.

Before employing an attorney lo ue . fend Orchard, Haywood said the organi- zation did nothing to discover what Or chard had been doing prior to the murder of Governor Steunenberg. Neither was there any investigation to determine the mans guilt or innocence. The federation officials went over transcript of the evl- dence of the preliminary hearing before engaging Miller and paying him $lo00 Orchard made no request to be fur nished an attorney.
 "The second telegram you sent to Idaho as to the employment of counsel, say ing that the federation defended no man guilty of crime, but in the past had found that all of it's accused members were in- nocent and would have been the victims of a conspiracy unless the federation would come to their assistance. Was that telegram given out to the Associated Press at the time it was sent?'
 Tt was given to the press, yes, sir.
 ''When did the federation cease to de- fend Orehard?"
 'I can't say exactly as to that, sena- tor. but I think it was when Attorney Miller came here to Bose and was told that Orchard had no further use for his services. Mir Miller made no report to me about that"
 Did you know that Orchard was in the Occur D'Alenes with Jack Simpkins in the fall of 1905?'
 No, sir
 Did you ever discuss with George A. Pettibone the whereabouts of Orchard?'
 No, sir"
 Did you ever tell Pettibone you had sent Simpkins draft for slOO?'
 No, sir"
 But Simpl5ins did leave S100 with you and you sent him a federation draft on December 21 19O5?" Not a federation draft, no, sir. You have the draft?
 "Yes, sir"
 Tt is signed by you as secretary treasurer" Yes, sir" This ended the cross-examination. On redirect examination Haywood said he had an impression that he had heard Orchard speak of having once owned ar | interest in the Hercules mine. But l have heard so many tales of wot since I have been secretary of the feder ation I cannot say positively about Orch ard" he added. | In all his acts in connection with tho | defense of Orchard. the witness said h' | first consulted with general counsel | Murphy. l Senator Borah on re-cross examination | asked:

SEWALL CREW MAY
Be CANN|BAL VICTIMS

SEATTLE, October 3O.-Captain Gaff-
ney, master of the big sailing ship
Arthur Sewall, reported to Nave been
wrecked near Cape Horn, seems to
have been born under an unlucky star.
Capt. Gaffney was in charge of the
full-rigged ship Roanoke when she
went down; was master of the Susque-
hanna when that vessel foundered;
commanded the Iroquois when she
went On the rocks. and took the Ken
ilworth into Montevideo in a leaky
condition.
The Sewall was under charter to the
Pacific Coast Company to bring 5000
tons of Pennsylvania anthracite coal
to Seattle.
SAN FRANCISCO, October 31.-Re-
insurance on the overdue American
ship Arthur Sewall was advanced to-
day to fifty per cent. There is some
speculation on the vessel, which is be-
lieved by many to have foundered off
Terra del Fuego while bound from
Philadelphia for Seattle. The ship is
out 211 days.

There is always a particular pleasure
attached to the arrival of a vessel Of
the Togo Kisen Kaisha; first of all,
for the reason that these boats are
among the most graceful in build of
any plying the Pacific Ocean, and next
for the reason that their officers are
numbered among the finest set of men
that honor this route with their pres
ence. Yesterday evening at o'clock
the T. X. K. Hongkong Maru, Captain
FiImer, the younger, and the son of
his father in every way, locked at
the Hackfeld wharf from Oriental
ports. She was a day ahead of time
as far as schedule was concerned and
she sails at noon today for San Fran
cisco, with mail, a little sooner than
local business men expected.
The Honglong Maru brought $50 tons
of cargo for Honolulu Captain Riley,
port captain for H. Hackfeld & Co.,
agents for the Togo Kisen Kaisha, at
once set his gang of stevedores to
work to handle the large freight, with
the result that before II o'clock this
morning every ton of the vessels
freight will be on the wharf and the
ship will get away on the stroke of
noon for the Golden Gate.
There were but four stopover passen-
gers for Honolulu, Miss ]. Crabtree
and Mr.. and Mrs. K. Ito and child.
Among the through passengers is r.
Asano, a son of the president of the
Togo Kisen Kaisha; NJ. Shitaishi, di-
rector and general manager of the

is a vessel; ]. c. Apuy, accompanied.

weight, representing over 5000 tons
Besides this she had
sixteen horses, four mules, four bulls,
fourteen crates of poultry and 226 pigs,
in the way of a top-load. She sounded
like a farmyard as she entered port.
Her dozen passengers enjoyed the trip
down in spite of cool weather and a
couple of days of rather fresh winds
toward the end. The Nevadan locked
at Brewers wharf and had a good
sized crowd TO meet her. Greene is
still her genial master. Lansing, her
old purser, is now holding down a job
for the Standard Oil Co. in San Fran
cisco and his place is taken by Thu
bert, formerly of the S. S. Mexican
