killer of the leaders Of the Western Fed,
Grafton Of Miners; his exploits had
eclipsed even those of Steve Adams
kid" Minister, and others who had en-.
loved the confidence of the inner circle
Tracing Orchards movements about the
time of the tragedy, Mr.. Hawley told OIL
his meeting with Jack Simpklns. a mem
Der of the executive committee OF the
Western Federation, who agreed to help
in the destruction Of Steunenberg. The
two went together to Caldwell on their
mission Of murder. Had Caldwell peen a
mining camp there might not have been
anything strange in Simpkins going tnere
but it was a small town with an agricul-
tural population, and the man who was
an organizer Of the federation could have
had no good reason for remaining here
day after day under the assumed name
Of IL Simmons"
For Orchards Defense.
"Aud after we consider all the evidence
how can we arrive at any other conclusion
than that Orchard was actuated solely by
a desire to serve his employers and to earn
more money by his misdeeds"
AS connecting Haywood. Meyer and Petit
bone directly with Orchard at the time OF
the killing Of Steunenberg. Hawley read the
letter which reached Orchara m .ne jan d.
in the handwriting of George A. Pettibone
The letter read:
THAT was sent to Jack for you and
should reach YOU SOON" At this same time
HAYWOOD admitted sending draft for 500
to Jack Simpkins, saying the latter had left
the money with him when he started out on
a prospecting trip.
Nearing the close of his address. Hawley
dwelt for some time on the rush Of the
federation's attorneys to defend Harry Or
chard. He told of the 1880 retainer paid
to Attorney Fred Miller of Spokane. and
demanded to know why the federation
should defend its members accused Of crime
any more than the Masons. the Odd Eel
lows or any other organization defended Its
members-that Is. not at all.
II tell you. gentlemen of the jury. that
n Harry orchard had killed a man who had
not been prominent in political life-a man
who had not incurred the enmity of Meyer,

CRUSADE AGAINST DOGS.
Owners Must Pay License Tax or Lose
Their Pets.

Beginning with August l the Districts dog
catchers will institute a crusade against all
dogs not wearing tags of the current year.
The Commissioners yesterday directed Sam
Einstein, poundmaster, to make plans for
this crusade, which means that every dog
caught On the streets without a 19O7-19OS
tag will be captured and taken to the dog
pound.
Thus far during the current fiscal year
only untagged dogs have been seized; tag
ged dogs have been passed by Mr.. Einsten
and his active assistants, whether the tags
which were on the dogs We're those of the
current year or the year just ended. In
issuing this order the Commissioners eX-
pressed themselves as determined to deny
dogs without 19O7-19OS tags the liberty of
the streets.

Struggle in the River.

Lee Terrell hurried to him to save his
cousin. He went out in the deep water and
caught hold of the drowning man, thinking
he would be able to hold him up until he
could get back to the shallow water with
him. He told his cousin to hold on and be
careful, but the drowning boy was badly
frightened and excited that he probably did
not hear what said to him. Bruce
held to Lee and the two went to the bottom
of the river together. They rose to the
surface of the water and the younger of
the two made a strong effort to get
nearer the wall, but instead of going in
that direction he was again pulled beneath
the surface of the water 1t was then that
he realized it was a question of one or two
lives being lost, his strength beginning to
fail him. and he pushed his cousin off.
The latter went down for the last time and
the survivor managed to reach the shallow
water and save his own life.
While the exciting river tragedy was
being enacted, 1t is stated. more than
dozen men and boys stood upon the
wall and watched the proceeding with
out making any effort to assist the men
in the water. The police were informed
that they did not do much as throw
a stick of wood to the men or attempt to
get a boat to go to their assistance. A
few minutes after the young man had lost
his life the harbor police were searching
for his body, and then a number of volun-
teers We're on hand. Five minutes after
the police reached the scene Of the drown
ing they had the body of the victim of the
accident on the wall working hard to
restore life.

About thirty minutes after the drowning
occurred the police from the harbor pre-
Cinct recovered the body of Bruce Terrell
and took it ashore. They worked for some
time. using artificial means of respiration,
but they were unable to resuSctate him.
Bruce Terrell came here from Blackstone,

months ago and accepted position in the
yard of the Southern Railway Company.
He boarded at 18th and f streets south

1t is said that he had been in the habit of
going to the river occasionally to take a
bath and swim. He was not a good swimmer,
however, but since coming here he had
become more proficient. Yesterday after
noon he went with his cousin TO the river,
going into the water from the sea wall
opposite the foot of 18th street. They had
been in the water some minutes before
the young man from Blackstone went be-
yond his depth and shouted for assistance.

Referring to the testimony of DR.. I. L.
MCGEE of Wallace. Idaho, that he saw
Orchard there during the summer of 1904
Mr.. Hawley said Orchard could not have
been there. and that DR.. MCGEE was either
grievously mistaken as to dates or stated
a deliberate talsehoOd.
MCGEE was recently arrested for perjury
AS to the killing of Lyle Gregory, Mr.
Hawley said the evidence showed that
Gregory was a companion Of Detectives
Scott and Sterling. against whom the West
ern Federation of Miners had grievances
Orchard must have been serving the fedora
ton in killing the man, for he had no per-
SOnal motive.
Again in this crime of killing Gregory
we find Steve Adams directly involved. and
George PettibOne as giving the instructions.
Again may I ask. why these two men have
not been called here to deny these allega-
lions or charges made against them.

your intelligence"
The prosecuting attorney next went over
the various attempts made by Orchard on
the lives of Judges Goddard and Gabbaert
and Gov. Peabody. The escape of each of
these men from destruction, especially Pea
body. was miraculous. Mr.. Hawley de-
clared and the motive for their removal
lay in the Western Federation of Miners.
and not In the breast of the man hired to
commit the crime The size and destructive
character OF the bomb finally made by
Orchard to destroy Peabody would seem
incredible If the deadly engine itself had
not been introduced. After he had spoken
nearly an hour at the afternoon session. Mr.
Hawley finally brought his argument down
to the death of former Gov. Steunenberg.
Murder Of Steunenberg.
HE appears to have been particularly
obnoxious to the Western Federation of
Miners" said the attorney. The articles
which have been introduced here from the
Miners Magazine show the lasting hatred
that the organization bore him. Never
has a man been more vilified than he was
Frank Steunenberg had been a member of
a Dor union. so when the mining troubles
started in northern Idaho the leader of the
Western Federation of Miners thought he
would be found on their side. But Steu-
nenberg thought more of law and order.
and his firm course in stamping out the
disorders aroused the enmity of the min
ers' organization. If there is one class
Of men the leaders of an organization like
this despise above all others 1t is those

A SAMPLE OF HEAnsTIs,.

In a recent issue of his New York
paper. Mr.. Hearst discussed the failure
of the city bond issue. and made II
the occasion for attacking the McClel.
Ian administration.
In most of the other Cities said he
there is no trouble in floating bonds
which generally command premium
Yet the paper of this, the richest city
in the nation and in the world, goes
begging, even though the time limit is
rates are raised.
The investing public has no faith
in the Mcclellan administration. Placed
in office by fraud, it's conduct of public
affairs has been marked by the play
ing of petty politics and by incompe-
tence. extravaganza and corruption"
Now, it is we'll known that the mar
ket for all sorts of bonds is greatly de-
pressed and 1t Is next to impossible to
sell any municipal 4 per cent. bonds
at par. But as soon as New York
raised the interest rate OF her new
bonds to 4 1-2 per cent. steps were
taken to organize syndicate to pur-
chase Them and it is now said that the
bonds will be underwritten without
difficulty.
This shows how reliable is the Hearst
newspaper in It's statements and how
logical in it's conclusions.

roo MUCH PROSPERITY,

In spite Of the hard-times talk in
financial circles. our foreign trade for
July showed large increase over that
of last year.
The imports in July of this year
amounted to s1e4S3O,966, as compared
with S102,592449. showing an increase
of s22.23S517. The exports for July
also showed a large Increase over the
same month of last year. amounting
to s12S,555.235, as compared with
Sill. 693.274 in July. 1906, which is an
Increase of s16,s61.961.
For the seven calendar months end
ed July 30th last, the total imports
were $s76.11o,149, as compared with
s739,e51779 in similar period last
year. In the same months this year
the exports aggregated s1.069, 005.60T.
as compared with s96o536,o02 in the
first seven months of last year.
The cry in financial circles is that
we are doing too much trade for our
scant capital. y This cry, comes from
foreign lands as well as from the
United States. and experts agree that
there must be recession In trade be-
fore the financial pressure is removed.
That is doubtless true, but 1t is hard
for layman to understand how. the
world can be bankrupted by pros
perity.

pamphlet which issued that this re-

had been all absorbed by manufac-
turers and jobbers, and that farmers

If that be true, there must be very
