HAYWOOD JURY
Becoming Restive and
Nervous Over the
Long Trial.
DEFENSE NEARL YCLOSED

Boise, Ida, July 5.-Upon adjourn
ment this afternoon until Monday
morning, counsel for w. ID. Haywood
announced that with the exception OF
Haywood and MoyeT, and some depo-
sitiOns from San Francisco, the de-
fense would offer no more witnesses or
testimony on its direct case.
The depositions deal with the Brad
ley explosion. and have been sent
from San Francisco, but have not yet
arrived. Il is expected that they will
be here by Monday surely, and Will
then be read TO the jury II they are
admitted in evidence This and the
examination Of Haywood and Meyer,
II the latter is really placed on the
stand, will probably not occupy more
than two days. After that the state
will begin its rebuttal. This wall
take several days more, and then
there will be three or four days OF
talk, so that IL is not likely that the [,
case VIII get to the jury before July
20.
Judge Wood has requested counsel

Wood will examine the requests and
let the lawyers know what his ac-
ton will be regarding them, before
they start in on their arguments. This

10 consider IT,
JURORS WANT kXERCISE.
Just before adjournment this after
noon Judge Wood said tnat some OF
the jurors had been complaining tnat
they did not get enough Of exercise.
Juror Samuel F. Russell, who has
whiskers that are the pride OF the /
county, spoke up and said:
you see Judge. most OF us like a
little exercise now and then, but some I
Of us don't want any and the bailin's ,
won't let any Of Us go out without the
rest"
Judge Wood said that the supreme
court Of Idaho had upset three OF {
four verdiets on the ground that the !
Jurors had been allowed TO separate
and that II was necessary 10 be very
strict on that line. One verdict nad |
even been upset because a Juror had
stepped into a cigar store TO get
cigar while the rest OF the jurors
stood outside.
Lawyer Darrow said that the de-
tense would agree TO any stipuation !
that would allow part Of the jurors
70 exercise under the eyes OF some OF
The bailiffs, while the rest stayed at !
home with other bailiffs. Then up
spoke Juror A. p. Burns. remaTEing:
Il want to know what right the bail
hfs have to impose on the jurors. II
one OF us happen to step across the .
Iidewalk> they tell us we're our OF ,

IF the bailiffs impose on the jur-
Dts well have to get some new bail. \
