consumed the first hour of the morning session, and then Senator Borah, look ing toward the bench, said in a quiet tone:
 Tt will be a few moments before the next witness arrives"
 The crowd knew Orchard was to come. and in keen expectation watched the two doors of the room. It was to be realization at last. The prisoner witness, long sequestered at the peni- tentiary, was to be produced.
 Haywoods mother Mrs. Carruthers, of Salt Lake City, and her daughter, sat beside the prisoner and his wife, they having arrived here yesterday from Salt Lake. Mrs Carruthers Is a handsome woman of middle age, and her daughter Is pretty girl of 20. The prisoners two daughters were absent. Haywood had a note book and at in- tervals took notes of the proceedings. Horse1ey had spent the night and morning at the office of James H. Hawley and was brought to the court house in carriage with three armed guards. Strangers entering the court room during the morning were searched for weapons, and when Orchard reach ed the building the doors of the trial room were locked and extra deputies posted outside the rail- Sheriff Hodgin cleared an aisle back of the seats of the Haywood party, and when he got signal from the judges chambers that all was ready, he nodded his head to MT. Hawley.
 witness's Dramatic Entrance.
 Call Harry Orchard said the States leading counsel in a loud tone.
 The chamber door swung open and out marched Orchard led by Deputy Sheriff Rass Beamer and followed by two penitentiary guards and two de- tectives, all armed. They walked him on the march around the rail and then faced the crowd while he climbed to his chair. Far in the room a man stood up to get a better view, and deputy sheriff shouted, "Sit down."
 The other deputies instantly started forward, and if the man had not taken his seat quickly, they would have jumped on him.
 There were a few preliminaries as to HorseIey's birthplace, and real name, and his first days in the North Idaho country, and then Hawley led him down to the destruction of the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mines.
 He was telling of the meeting of the Burke union of the Western Fedora tion of Miners when the defense made its first strong attack. Attorney Rich ardson objected to the Testimony on the ground that the events occurred
 
 of the central body of the Federation, and that he was in no way connected with it. Senator Borah contended that the State had right to prove the facts about the Bunker Hill and Sul- livan mines for the purpose of showing why the Western Federation of Miners had taken umbrage at Governor Steun- enberg.
 Judge Wood ruled that the general facts were admissible. but put a limita- tion on the amount of details that could be shown.
 Similar objections and similar rulings were scattered throughout the testi- mony of the star witness, Judge Wood invariably allowing considerable 1ati- tude on the promise of the prosecu- tion that later witnesses would connect the details with the case now being tried.
 The first witness today was J. M Brunzell, a hotel proprietor of Nam pa, Idaho Brunzell identified the names of Thomas Hogan and John I. Stmpkins in his hotel register for No vember, 1905. Hogan or Orchard was at the hotel with Simpkins on Novem- Der 13. The presence of Simpkins at Nampa on November ' and at Silver City on November 8. 1905. was estab- Iished by A. Hinkey and J A. Connors, hotel keepers in these respective cities.

 During tho giving of testimony. Hay woods mother, a gray haired. kindly faced woman, wearing spectacles. ent- cred the court room for the first time and took a seat beside the prisoners wife. Haywood's sister also was pres ent today for the first time.
 Following Hinlxey and Connors on the stand came c. H. Wentz. a bookkeep- CT of a mining company at Warin. Ida ho. Wentz said he knew Jack Simp- kins. He identified the photograph of Sfmpkins which was offered and ac- cepted in evidence over an objection from the defense. Wentz also identi- fled Simpkins's signature in the vari- ous hotel registers Simpkins some- times went under the name of Sim mons. The hotel registers were allow ed in evidence by Judge Wood. the de- fense objecting and excepting to the ruling Wentz was not cross exam ined.
 Guy Feight of Nampa told of seeing Orchard and Simpkins in company at Caldwell prior to the assassination of Governor Steunenberg.
 There was delay of several min utes after the conclusion of Feight's testimony, Senator Borah simply an- nouncing:
 'The next witness will be here in moment"
 TnoroadIately there was intense ex-
