1t was after being out for 81 hours
that the jury which at first had been
divided eight to four and then seemed
deadlocked at ten to two, finally came
to an agreement shortly after the
first faint streaks of the coming day
showed gray above the giant hills
which wall Boise to the north and
east The weary, snow bearded old
bailiff who had kept an allnight vigil
before the door of the jury room was
startled into action by an imperative
knock from within. Events moved
rapidly enough after this and when at
last the principal actors in the trial
had been gathered into the court
room at a few moments before 8
o'clock the white envelope handed by
the foreman to the Judge was torn
open and the verdict read.
II came as an electric thrill to the
inquiry among the Jurors after
their dismissal revealed some Of
the elements entering into their
decision. Samuel D. Gilman, the
last man to be won over to- the de-
tense, declared that a majority of the
mon seemed convinced that the gener-
al tone of the courts instructions in
iicated that the defendant should be
freed. Finley Mclean, who voted
consistently for acquittal from the
first, declared that the judges In.
structions seemed to settle all doubt
as to the course he should take.
Jur-r James Robertson, the good
aatured Scotchman at whose house
lere in Boise Governor Steunenberg
boarded for more than two years,
said:
II couldn't reconcile myself to vot-
ing any ether way than with the de-
tense from the very first and l think
that under the law and the evidence
there was nothing else for us to do.
The last fellow who held out against
acquittal belongs to the same frater-
nal organization that do. There was
some talk of a compromise on sec
ond degree verdict, but we wouldn't
stand for that-it either had to be &C.
luittal or would have stayed there
forever"
Juror Samuel F. RUSSELL, the senior
Of the panel. said:

HAYWOOD IS FREE
Jury in Famous Case at Boise
Returned a Verdict Of
Not Guilty.
CAUSED BY JuD5t'S CHARGE
Gov ooodine Announced That Meyer
and Pettlbone VIII Be Tried On
the Same Charge Notwith-
standing Result.

Boise, July 29.--Into the bri ght sun
light OF beautiful sabbath morning
into the stiffness OF city drows.
with the lazy slumber of summer
Sunday, William D, Haywood, defend
ant In one of the most noted trials in
volving conspiracy and murder thai
the country has ever known, walked
Sunday a free man, acquitted Of the
murder of Former Governor Frank
Steunenberg.
The probability of a verdict Of &C
quittaI in the case Of the secretary
treasurer and acknowledged leader
of the Western Federation of Miners
had been freely predicted since Satur'
day when Judge Fremont Wood read
his charge, which regarded as strong.
ly favoring the defense in its interpre.
tation of the laws Of conspiracy, cir
cumstantial evidence and the zorro.
boration of an accomplice who con.
fesses.
1t was freely predicted that in the
event of Haywood's acquittal the state
would abandon the prosecution of his
associates, Charles H. Meyer, the
president of the Federation, and
George A. Pettibone- of Denver
Statements from counsel and from
Governor Gooding issued Sunday dis
pei this view of the situation. Gov
ernor Gooding said:
"The verdict is great surprise to
me, and believe to all citizens OF
Idaho who have heard or read the evil
dence in the case.
II have done my duty. have no
regret as to any action have taken,
and my conscience is clear. As long
as God gives me strength shall CON
tinue my efforts for government by
law and for organized society.
"The safe will continue a vigorous
prosecution of Meyer and fettibone
and Adams and Of Simpkins when ap-
pretended. There will be neither
hesitation nor retreat"
Application will be made to Judge
Wood Monday morning to admit
Meyer and Pettibone to bail, and 1t
was said Sunday night that in the
case of Meyer, against whom the
state is admitted to have its weakest
case, favorable consideration would
not be unexpected.
Not the least interesting Of the
comments made upon the verdict Sun
day was that of Harry Orchard, the
self-confessed murderer OF Governor
and the witness upon
whom the state chiefly relied to prove
its claim of sinister conspiracy
against the Western Federation Of
Miners. When told at the state peni-
Tertiary that Haywood had been &C
quilted, Orchard said:
"Well, l have done my duty. | have
told the truth. l could do no more.

II lack the voice and the strength,

He paid q tribute to Senator Borah
as the able counsel who would follow
and plead for law and order and speak
OF the flag and the country.
Eloquently barrow appealed for
mercy, and justice. He said he had
known Haywood for years and that
the day of his conviction would be
a sad day for him. The sun swould
not shine and the birds would not
sing.
"But 1t is not for Bill Haywood,
I plead" he cried. "or for his widow
or his orphans. If he dies, 10000

and wherever the English tongue Is
spoken and throughout the civilized
world they are wondering about your
verdict. If you decree his death the
spiders and the vultures Of Wall street
will send up poems Of praise and
wherever men live who hate Haywood
because he works for the poor you
will receive your need of praise.
"But If you acquit this man there
are millions Of men-out on the broad
prairies, on the wide ocean, In the
factories and mills and down deep IN
the earth-there are women and chill
dren who will pray for you. These
men and women and children stand
here with me tonight stretching out
their hands and imploring God to
guide your Judgment and impiorlns
you to save Haywood"
Mr.. barrow finished abruptly ana
as he walked to his table plainly
showed his emotion and many women
in the audience were in tears. Court
adjourned until Z p. m,
