Deny Knowing Orchard

appeared as he insisted on q direct
answer and Haywood appeared re-
luctant. Haywood in turn was as
courteous as the cross examiner. In
variably he addressed Borah as ''Sen.
ator,' and repeatedly asked per-
mission to explain when he thought
there might be some misunderstood
ing.
Once when Senator Borah pressed
Haywood as to his sentiment toward
former Governor Steunenberg, Hay
wood said quietly and with smile:
81 felt no different toward Steun-
enberg, senator, than do toward you,
or any Of those people,.
Seator Borah looked up quickly,
but he did not smile. He said quiet
ly: eyes, have been given to
understand something of the sort"
and did not pursue the subject.
Haywood made no effort to deny
his knowledge of Orchard and his
affairs or his connection with Simp-
kins. lie was pressed closely a 8 to
the passage of kilograms relating to
engagement of counsel to defend
Orchard. and in this connection ad :
mitted that Simpkins had retained
counsel, but that there was no record
of any report from Simpkins to the
officials of the Western Federation Of
Miners. Haywood explained the
draft sent to Simpkins for 800 on
December 1, 1905, on the ground
that Simpkins had left the money
with him for safe keeping. He had
no knowledge of the receipt OF the
IN oney and has not heard from
Simpkins since that time.
Haywood in many particulars con
flrmed Orchard, but where OrohaEC
connected Haywood or the Western
Federation with the crimes, the wit
ness was emphatic and prompt IL
his denials. He showed no hesita
tion or desire to conceal the fac
that Orchard had visited him at hi
house or that he on different occas
ions had had intimate conversation
with Orchard. Throughout Haywood
rang the note of antagonism to wha
he calls the capitalistic class and hi
confirmed view that only by such me
thods as those followed by the West
ern Federation can the workingmal
hope to control the situation.

times he is forced to go begging OF

The only available literature strictly

THE BAR SINISTER.

"The Nuuanu dam is like an illegit-
innate child, conceived in haste, born
in arrogance and carried on in ineom-
potency and the bar sinister is upon
it," he concluded.
Rawlins wanted two minutes more
but Correa objected and Rawlins sat
down.
Tbs vote on the motion TO table was
lost by a majority of one, whereupon
Kaleiopu moved that the vote on House
Bill 13l be reeonsidered and that the
same be brought back from the Sen
ate.
Sheldon advised caution. To bring
the bill back would kill it and who
would suffer most9 If the committee
report be amended to include a proviso
regarding the contract cancellation 1t
could be accepted.
The vote to reconsider the appro-
priation bill was lost by a big ma
jority and a motion was put TO send
the majority report back for eorree-
| ton.
Kaleiopu burst out into a remark
about a .tkeko'', which the Speaker
promptly ruled out Of order. The mem
Der from the Fifth then again spoke
at length on the folly Of further dis
cussion Of the reports. He p~rophesied
also the defeat OF the Loan bill in
the Senate and moved again the tabling
of the report.
