gave in detail the story Of his preliminary
visit at Caldwell in September and No

said. at the express order of Haywood.
Pettbone. and Meyer. Haywood had told
him what Steunenberg looked like. and
that he was in the sheep business. Simp-
kins was with him on his preliminary
visits in November. but left Caldwell be
fore the assassination
Orchard was not asked 70 20 into de-
tail about the Steunenberg murder. The
story has been told often and often But
he gave all the essential points. told how
he and SimpkiIs had passed under the
names Of Hogan and Simmns; how they
had made one bomb and set it in vain.
how he had tried vainly to shoot Steunen-
berg and how he and Simpkins made the
bomb that finally killed the ex-governor.
He told how. on the evening Of Deem
beT 80 he saw the ex-governor sitting IN
the lobby of the Saratoga Hotel. how he
hustled up TO his room and got the bomb.
wrapped it up i'm a newspaper. and hur-
ried to the Steunenberg house and plant
ed it outside the gate. with the usual at
taChment Of a string fastened 10 the gate
