THAT BRADLEY EXPLOSION
Was 1t Gas or Ono OF Orchards
Bombs?-Day Devoted TO Hear
ing Depositions

Boise. Idaho. July 9.-Part OF the
San Francisco dispositions dealing
with the Bradley explosion were read
to the jury that is trying William ID.
Haywood. and the rest OF them VIII
be presented today. The reading be
gan directly after the court sat. with
Clarence Daryow and Senator Boran
alternating for their respective sides
Bradley had testified in suit for
damages at San Francisco that the ex-
plosion was caused by gas. and dam
ages were awarded against the gas
company for a gas explosion. This
was before Orchards story was pub
lished. Since then dispositions have
been taken at San Francisco for use
in this trial. and both sides declared
themselves satisfied with the showing
made.
The state counted it a victory that
Bradley had receded from his first
and positive statement that 1t was Il
gas explosion, and was prepared 10
believe that a bomb might have been
used. The prosecution was also
pleased to have it shown that Brad
ley was still inside the door when the
explosion occurred and particles OF
glass from the doors. hairs from the
rug outside the door, and pieces OF
stone and cement from the mosaic
floor OF the vestibuIe were blown into
his body.
The defense, on the other hand, IS
satisfied that the dispositions show
that it would have been impossible
for Orchard to have reached the yes
Thule and placed the bomb in tbs
manner and time described by him
that the evidence. and particularly
the effect OF the explosion. shows thai
gas leak was the cause.

How the Vessel Operated.

The vessel leaves the city of Chi
cago each weekday and proceeds to
an anchorage at the intersection of
the state lines of Illinois, Indiana and
Michigan. There, it is alleged. those
who control the vessel conduct gam
bling operations of various kinds. Re
turns from all the race tracks in the
country are received on board the ship
by wireless telegraphy, and the pas
sengers are afforded every opportunity
to wager their money on the races. In
addition, it further is asserted, they
may play at faro, roulette, poker. or
any other game Of cards or with any
known gambling device.
