Boise, Idaho, May 8.-By overruling to-day the motion of the defence for a bill of particulars setting forth what overt acts. if any, there were to con- meet the accused with the murder of former Governor Frank Steunenberg Judge Fremont Wood of the district court of Ada county. cleared the way for the trial of William D. Haywood, secretary of the Western Federation of Miners, which will begin tomorrow morning.

 In cases where bills of particulars are allowable, Judge Wood, who is to preside over the trials of the accused miners. declared the motions must be made before the indictments are plead ed to and before the cases are set for trial.
 Haywood Is the first of four men &C., cused of complicity in the Stuenenberg murder to be tried. The others, Mover, Pettibone and Orchard, the last of whcm is said to have made confess sion, will be tried as circumstances dic- tate, following the conclusion of the proceedingst against Haywood.
 The prisoner, his counsel, and the at torneys specially retained to present the case and plead the cause of the ac- cusing state, are ready for the long ordeal in court, The first and one of the great tasks of the court is to pro- ed tomorrow morning as soon as Sher- if Hodgin has intoned the formal cry opening the court Estimates of the time necessary to select twelve men good and true vary, but few place the time under three weeks.

SHIPS SAIL WITH PARTIAL CARGOES Compelled to Refuse Freight
 on Account of
 Strike. MEN BEHAVING WELL Little Disorder Among the Ten Thousand Men
 Now Out.
MEN BEHAVING WELL

New York, May S.-The contest be- tween the transatlantic and Coast wise Steamship companies and the striking 'longshoremen which followed the refusal of the former to grant Q wage increase of approximately Ss Ia per cent, continued to-day to the dis advantage of both parties. While the men remained idle the steamship people were obliged to sail with partial car goes to their monetary loss,
 The only persons receiving direct and immediate benefit from the situation are the crews of the vessels who. hay ing been pressed into double service, are receiving the wages of stevedcres In addition to their regular pay as ship employees. But with the services Of the crew and such other help as could be picked up the work progressed slowly, and much freight was necessarily re- fused.
 Merchants throughout the country are feeling the delay, 1t is said; con tracts are maturing without the ful- fllment of their conditions, and orders are piling in with no immediate pros- pect of being filed
 It is in this last phase of the situa- ton that the striking 'longshoremen l find their greatest source of satisfac- ton. A general protest of merchants.> they are sure, will impel the steamship men to agree forthwith to their de- mands for higher wages.
 The threat that the trans4Atlantic | lines which are under contract with their respective governments to carry the mails on scheduled time, would be forced to suspend their sailngs tempo rarily is not seriously entertained. The, thinking strikers realize that the cesll- panies would, if necessary, sa1rifioe | freight and even passenger business to fill their holds with coal rather than interrupt or seriously delay the mail service. Rather the strikers expect to cause some inconvenience and money loss that the companies will be glad soon to com etc terms. With the ex- ception of the half dozen lines which have acceded to the demands, tha steamship people tonight remained firm in their determination not to yield.
 The liners sailed as scheduled to-day; They included the Baltic of the White Star line for Liverpool, Noordan of Holland-Amercan line for Rotterdam, the French liner Roma for Marseilles. and the Italia Brasile for Naples and Genoa.
 Though probably 10000 men are idle, there was comparatively little disorder today. The leaders of the strikers have shown a disposition to check any out break against men who are working

TAFT AND F0RAKER.
Cox Names Former for President, and
 FOraker for Senator.

Foraker for Senator.
 Cincinnati. May S.--W. H. Taft for president, J. B. Foraker for United States senator and A. L. Harris for governor, is the programme advised to-day by George B. Cox formerly re- publican leader in Hamilton county in an interview with The Associated Press. Reports from Columbus and Washington had named MT. Cox as en- gagged in negotiations looking toward a compromise between Taft and FSoraker forces. but MT. Cox denied such sug- gestions. As to the Ohio situation, he said:
 Tn my judgment, the time has come for the good of the republican party that something should be done.
 We must carry the legislature next year to elect United States senator and get much needed legislation, and must elect governor and other state officers.
 Our watchword should be success of the republican party and to achieve this we should support W. H. Taft for president, J. B. Foraker for United States senator and A. L. Harris for governor"
 What about your personal differences with Secretary Taft:
 ''I know of no personal differences. There may have been some political differences but they are things of the past and will not be permitted to stand in the way of party success.
 When the attention of Senator For aker was called to the statement. he said:
 T am not sure 1t calls for any re- sponse from me, but will repeat that I do not want any political honors at the hands of the republicans of Ohio except with their hearty endorsement. Therefore if what MT. Cox suggests and recommends should meet with their ap- proval, no one will support Secretary Taft more cordially than I shall.
 Charles P Taft, editor of the Con- cinnati Times-Star and brother of Sec retary Taft, when shown the interview with Mr. Cox, said MT. Cox takes a broad view of the matter. He sees the opportunity to elect another Ohio pres idant and very wisely urges that we get together"

Severance of Athletic Relations With
 Dartmouth Long Contemplated.

Providence, May S.-A statement con cerning the severing of athletic rela- tions between Brown and Dartmouth was given out tonight by the board of directors of the Brown university ath- letic association. The statement in part is as follows:
 "At a meeting of the Brown board of directors on April 26 1t was unan- imously voted to sever all athletic re- lations with Dartmouth college, and a communication to that effect was for warded to Prof. Bartlett, president of the Dartmouth athletic council.
 'FThe board wishes to state that the action of Capt. Skillin in withdrawing his team from the field was by no means the determining cause of this action. The step has long been con- templated and was based on numerous incidents of past years, incidents which have been far more detrimental to the interests of true sport than the recent action of the Dartmouth captain.''
