State Realizes That 1t Will Be
Hard to Convince Jury That
Evidence Is CreditabIe.
WILL CALL HARRY ORCHARD
JUDGE FREMONT WOOD WILL
RENDER HIS DECISION AS TO
A BILL OF PARTICULARS ON
WEDNESDAY,.

Boise, Idaho, May 7.-Realizing that
its star witness is an acknowledged
self confessed perjurer and murderer,
and that it will be difficult task to
worthy of confidence attorneys for the
state will call Harry Orchard as their
first witness in the Haywood trial. Or
dinarily. in most trials, he would be
held as trump play at the close.
Judge Fremont Wood will on We'd
nesday decide if on the eve of his trial
for the murder of former Governor
Steunenberg. William Haywood is enti-
tied to receive bill of particulars
specifying the overt acts charged
against him. The motion of the de-
fense for this disclosure of the case o.
the state was argued at length and at
the conclusion of the discussion the
court announced that it would make a
decision at the time stated.
The prisoner, under guard of sheriff
Hodgin and two deputies, was brought
into court for the argument and of his
counsel, both Frank Richardson of
Denver, and Clarence Darrow, of Chi
cago, pleaded in his behalf. Senator
Borah alone spoke in behalf of the
state, although James H. Hawley, his
associate, was in the court room when
the proceedings began. The discus
sion always earnest, was characterized
at times by deep feeling and dramatic
intensity.
In answer to Judge Wood Mr.. OAR
row said that the defense was not
ready to go to trial, but Mr.. Richard
son interrupted him to make the quail
fication that the defense was as ready
as it ever could be under Circumstance
es, where the state was withheld from
it. He said that in all other respects
the defense was ready.

Market House Improvements
Are Considered and a New
Walk Suggested.
INVITATION is ACCEPTED.
CITY FATHERS WILL ATTEND A
NIGHT SESSION OF THE GAR
FIELD SCHOOL-MR. BUSSEN'S
CLAIM WAS ALLOWED.

Councilman Englebert Monday even
ing at council stated that he was
greatly pleased with the improve
ments that have been made at the
market place on South Sixth street
and then made a motion to have the
board of public works consider the
advisability of putting cement walks
on South Sixth street from Main to
A This, Mr. Englebert stated, would
make the market all the more attrac-
tive.
A communication from the Starr
Piano company calling attention to
the condition of the walks on South
A street from Second TO Third was
presented. About one-third of the en-
ployes of the company use this street
going and coming from work and the
walks are said to be in very bad con-
dition.
Council accepted an invitation to at
tend an evening session of school at
the Garfield school next Thursday ev-
ening. Several councilmen attended
the evening session held last year.
The special committee appointed to
investigate the claim of Annie Bussen
for s156.30 for seven months and fif-
teen days. unexpired term on the city
liquor license of her husband, the late
Benjamin Bussen, reported favoring
the allowance of the claim. Council
allowed it.

Sub-station Will Be Located at
Intersection of Fl. Wayne
Avenue and Eighth st.
ACTION BY THE COUNCIL
GROUND is OF NO USE TO THE
CITY AND THE TELEPHONE
COMPANY AGREES TO SEE THAT
1T is SUITABLY BEAUTIFIED.

A contract entered into between the
city and the Home Telephone compa-
ny of this city, leasing for term ci
ten years a plot of ground at the inter
section of FIT. Wayne avenue and
North Eighth street, just west of the
Akron hotel building, was ratified
Monday evening by the city council
The ground was obtained by the city
some years ago from the p. c. c. 4
ST. l.. railroad The railroad company
in making this concession stipulated In
the deed that the ground should be
used by the city only for park pur
poses. The Home telephone company
desired the land for the location of a
sub-telephone station and negotiated q
lease for the property with the city on
the consent of the railroad company.
When the matter was first brought
up in council Monday evening, Coun
Gilman BarteI opposed immediate rat
ification because he thought council
should first make an investigation
Just before adjournment Mr.. Bartel
stated that he had no objections TO the
immediate ratification and council
Immediately acted to this effect.
Handsome Sub-Station.
The property is triangular in shape
and is only small strip of land. For
years it has been an eye sore. 1t has
been used for a dumping ground and
no effort has been made by the city to
make it into a park. In consideration
for securing lease on this plot of land
the Home telephone company agrees to
erect a handsome sub-station, made of
brick and cement, SOW the ground
with grass seed, erect a wire fence on
the east side, plant trees. vines and
other shrubbery and to allow the prop
erty to be used as public park,
There probably will be some protest
because the city has turned over a
piece of public property to corpora
tion without receiving any compensa-
tion, but the city officials feel that
they have acted wisely in the matter.
The land is of no value to the city and
by leasing it to the Home Telephone
company it will be changed from an
eye sore to a small, but attractive
park.

DIVISION OF WARD
IS FORMALLY UP
Petitions From the West Side
Have a Total of Two
Thousand Signatures.
SENTIMENT is GENERAL
IF FAIRVIEW is SEPARATED FROM
WEST RICHMOND, THE FORMER
PROBABLY WILL BE KNOWN AS
THE EIGHTH WARD.

Numerous petitions signed by over
1000 residents of Fairview, asking for
a division of the Seventh ward, which
includes all of the city west of the riv-
evening and then referred to the ordi-
nance committee and the city engi-
neer. The petition asks that that part
of the city located north of the tracks
of the indianapolis division of the P
c. c. & ST. l.. railroad, commonly
known as Fairview, be made into "a
seperate ward.
There is no doubt but that the senti-
ment for division of the Seventh
ward is general. The number of
names attached to the petitions pre-
sented to council is a proof of this
and it is very probable that at the
next meeting of the city council. in
two weeks, an ordinance Will be pre-
sented providing for an additional
ward to the city.
May be Eighth Ward
That part of the Seventh ward To-
Gated north of the Indianapolis divis-
ion tracks probably will be known
as the Eighth ward. West Side peo-
pie state that the city west of the
river is entirely to large for one coun-
Gilman to represent and they point to
the fact that the west side is growing
in population more rapidly than any
other part of town.
If council provides for an addition
al ward it is probable that special
election will be held in Fairview inn
mediately following such action for
the purpose of electing representa-
tive 10 the common council The peti-
TONERS ask that if a division of the
Seventh ward is made. the new ward
shall remain a residence portion of
the city. thus barring all saloons.

The Richmond Amusement associa-

important propositions now pending
before the coliseum owners. as to what

have been made. Rumor has had it
for several weeks that polo woul:l
again be played next year. since the
skating craze seems to have some
what abated. but according to the
statements of one OF the directors.
such will not be the case as polo is
dead in the west. for the present at
least, and the exhibition games played
between the four Indiana gas belt cit

PETITION FOR WAGE
INCREASE TOCOUNC|L
Firemen Ask the Municipal
Body to Put Them on a
Footing With Police.
PRESENTED BY DEUKER.
ORDINANCE WAS REFERRED TO
THE ORDINANCE AND FINANCE
COMMITTEES AND WILL BE RE-
PORTED ON LATER.

True to the prediction made in the
Palladium, after the board of public
works had turned down the petition of
the members of the Richmond fire de-
partment for an increase in wages. the
fire fighters have carried their petition
to council. At the council meeting
Monday evening Councilman Deuker
introduced an ordinance increasing the
wages of members of the fire depart
ment as follows:
Fire chief-S1oo per month.
Assistant chief-SS0 per month.
Captains. drivers. laddermen, pipe
men-SlO per month.
The ordinance provides that this in
crease in wages shall become effective
June / After the ordinance had beea
read il was referred to the ordinances
committee and the finance commit
tee. 1t is regarded as almost certain
the ordinance will be favorably acted
upon. and it is probable it will be r.
ported to council at its next meeting.
Ever since the board refused to act
favorably on the petition the firemen
have been lobbying among the coun-
cilmen. and il seems TO be the opinion
of the councilmen that the salaries Of
the members of the fire department are
too small for this day and age of good
wages.
City Controller Parry states that the
appropriation for fire department for
this year has been exhausted and Mon
day evening. at his suggestion. coun-
Gil appropriated an additional 500 for
