Dofors tho jury In support of It charge,
will tomorrow morning formally asaort hU
entire Innocence and outline the evidence
he proposes to produce n order that the
presumption of innocence still resting In
the mind of the Jury- may become a fixed
Judgment. Clarence Derrnw, as attorney
for Haywood, will aay that his client la not
only not unity of conspiracy to assassinate
Frank Steuncnberg, former governor of
Idaho, but that Haywood la In fact the
victim of a conspiracy to disrupt the West

gulso of letal procedure condemn to death
the chief officers of the federation of which

be able to prove probably will take up
moat of the day. Court meets at 10 o'clock
and takes recess at noon. Mr. Darrow savs
that ha expects his speech will occupy at

will be an exhaustive presentation. Ho
will assert that Haywood bv sheer force

of a miner working- for day's wages to
become the secretary and treasurer of a
labor organization with upward of 6"0on
members. Ho will show that Haywood
was elected to office, by the members of the
Wcslorn Federation of Miners throtirh site

and his honesty. He w.l" point out that the
personal character of the men had not been I

Mr. Darrow -vlll not attempt to deny
that many foul crimes have been com
milted. Ho will not deny that Steunenberg
wns assassinated, but he will maintain that
his client had nothing to do with thl sor
any other murders and that the state has
not connected Haywood wtlh any con
spiracy. He will eharrre a conspiracy on
ino part or the , Mine Owners' o-soclatlon, J
with n hrf meirWs'.itp and " unlimited

It wilt be asserted that the Orchard story i

niltted. In his speech to th ecourt on Sa
urday last Mr. Darrow Intimated that there
was not evon rroof, other than tho state
ment of Orchard, that Orchard committed
tha Crimea he has enumerated.
Orchard's Alleged Motive.
It will be asserted thai the conspiracy
as between Haywood, Moyer, Pettlbone,
Orchard and Adams was a fabrication of
Orchards, who. In order to save his life, i
brought the others Into It and that the !
price of thfl confession was the pardon
of the actual murderer of Bteunenbnrg.
The motive of thW murder. It will ho
asserted, la to be found m Orchard's
desperate poverty, and the fact that he
saw his old partners In the Heroules mine
rich and prosperous while he, a hunted
criminal, robbed tills and attempted burr
lory in order to replenish his pocket. It
will be charged that Orchard borrowed
money from August Paulson In Wallace In
order that he might have enough money
to go to Caldwell, kill Bteunenberg and get
away.
The taking of the testimony for tha
defense may begin on Monday, but It Is
drt.tful .- after Mr. D" flnlslicd
his address the court will take up this
phase of the case. Counsel for the do-
Counsel for the do
fense are of the opinion mat me nrsi
witness will be called on Tuesday morn
tng. Judge WooTJ, however, la anxious to
push tha case to completion and It may
be that from now on ha will extend the
hoars.
Tha defense expects to take not more
than ten days with the Introduction of
evtdsnoe, but counsel for the state will
go Into a close examination of all the
witnesses biought to upsat the Orchard
story, and for this reason It Is thought
that tha case for tha defense may Uke
up a longer time than waa occupied by
the state. The rebuttal testimony will
take probably a week. The speeches and
verdict may take the greater part of an-
other, so that It Is not thought that the
conclusion will be reached before the end
c July.

BERLIN LIKE BIQ VILLAGE
Dr. Ernest II. Nenfeld Declares Ber
liner Ilnve Few Refinements
Present la Other Cities.
BERLIN. June 23. (Special.) Dr.
Ernest Hans Neufeld. writing in his new
weekly review, the Beglelter. declares
that Berlin, In spite of Its position as tha
capital of a great empire and notwith
standing; the great numbe-of Intellectual
leaders, artists, authr 1 merchant
princes Included a. . 'inhabitants,
Is really nothing more. -e village.
The writer comes to '..-( ln after
a careful study of L "Si, V Tork
and Paris, which he li. 'vr the
purpose of being able to j, these
three cities with the Gerrm. lie
criticises the manners and c. of
the lierllners with merciless JZ. &
cites a number of examples u
their primitive simplicity In n.
spects. ,. '
Having occasion to confer on business
with a great German munufacturor who
employed several thousand hands, tho
writer found that this Industrial leader
wore no callar, tie or cuffs, but enveloped
himself In a coarse woolen garment in
stead of a skirt. He was wearing the
cheapest possible kind of boots and he
was smoking a H penny cigar. On the
following day the writer paid a visit to
a great German scientist and found that i
the celebrated scholar bad an unwashed ,
neck, unclean hands, the manners of a
Hooligan and a voice like the hound of
the Baskervllles. Investigating the vari
ous features of night Ufa In Berlin, the
writer foond that Germans of good so
cial standing whom he met at different
pleasure resorts showed an unaccount
able desire to Introduce themselves to
him after one or two minutes' acquaint
ance, never forgetting to communicate lo
Mm their names, titles and dignities In
full. Going Into society, the writer found
that tho Berlin women were, as a rule,
dressed like kitchen maids on a rainy
winter Sunday, and that apart from their
appalling habits of dress were hopelessly
unintelligent and uninteresting.
Pursuing Uls Investigations among other
classes of Berlin population, the wrlttr
found that shopkeepers, waiters und
worklngmen were, as a rule, far less po- ,
lite than their like In London, Ports and .
New York. These and many other con- ;
elusions leau me unirr iu uwiu. umi .

SENSE OF RELIEF IN FRANCE
Government Sends I,arae Forces

Districts.
of
PARIS, June 23. A profound sense of re
lief pervaded the French capital tonight at
the check to the outbreak In the south,
which Is described by ex-Premier Rlbot as
the worst Internal crisis in France
In the last thirty-seven years. The govern,
nvent now apparently la satisfied that it
has the situation well In hand, and that
the overwhelming forces of troops garri
soning the whole area effectually will pre
vent a recrudescence of the armed revolt
against the central power. Buch a mobili
sation of military power has not previously
been witnessed In the life of the third re
public. All the towns and the majority of
tho villages In the two disturbed districts
are armed canirs.
Tonight's dispatches represent that a gon
eral surface calm prevails, although there
are one or two storm centers In Isolated
districts. There are some evidences, too,
of anxiety over possible developments to
morrow, Sunday being Trance's favorite
day for a demonstratlop. Both civil and
military authorities however have made I
ample preparations for eventualities.
Senators and deputies representing the
south called at the Elysee palace tonight
and asked President Fallieres to Intervene
j personally to secure the release of the
members of the Argelllcrs commltte eundor
arreet. as the surest means of ensuring
pacification. The president regretted that

effect and remove the principal grievances
of the wine growers, and finally, the bish
ops In the disturbed area exhorted the
people to avoid any further violence.
The result Is that Premier Clemenceau Is
able to give his colleagues a generally
hopeful report of the situation, but tho
plunned visits of President Fallieres to
Royan and Bordeaux and all the minister
ial engagements for festive functlona In
the Immediate future have been cancelled
or postponed, all on account of national
sorrow at the bloodshed In the south of
France.
A new feature of this situation was the
statement made by the minister of Jus
tice today that among the persons ar
rested In connection with the rioting in
the disturbed departments were members
of local royalist clubs which bore out the
cabinet's claim that considerable of poli
tics Is mixed up In the movement.
A delegation of senators and deputies
representing the south of France visited
President Fallieres at . the Elysee palace
thta afternoon and appealed for his good .
offlces to bring about the release of M. j

other channels, such as the Industrial and
railroad features. One of the most striking
statements made was that during the first
six years of the twentieth century the asso
ciation of North America has made ft
growth In nearly every department exceed
ing the entire fifty years' history of the
nineteenth century. This applies especially
to the Increase In the value of tho associa
tion property on this continent.

W. M. Davidson, superintendent of In

spoko In the morning at the First Metho

the Young Men's Christian association, Mr.
Davidson said:
"The new structure enables the educa
tional department to provide the best even
ing classes for the working boy and man.
The library appointments, reading rooms,
gymnasium and other features attract and
hold the young men In healthy surround
ings with Christian Influences. Every dollar
put Into that building Is an Investment In
tho young manhood of Omaha. It cost
imono, with I&0.000 still owing. The people
of Omaha do not wish to see the building
dedicated with, a debt hanging over It.
There Is pride enough, loyalty enough and
belief enough In this city to justify that

" stop there. We will use those boys and
the association to reach out and touch the

LOCAL OPERATORS FOR SMALL
Omaha Telea-raphera Are a I'nlt la
Supporting; the 'Frisco
Fight.
The Omaha local No. 10 of the Com
mercial Telegraphers' I'nlon of America, at
a meeting held In Barlght hall Sunday aft
ernoon, fully endorsed the action of Presi
dent Small of that union and pledged Its
metntuMS to the full support of their head
officials In their efforts to secure a favor
able termination of the San Francisco
strike. Reports rend Indicated there was
no likelihood of the Omaha telegraphers
being called out nt present, but the resolu-
lion provides rcr tn emergency should it i
come.
Steps were taken to see to the enforce
ment of the Nebraska law providing a pen
alty for officials of corporations who use
Intlnildat'on of any kind against members
of lsbor unions or secret societies. The
matter was brought up through ft report
that a superintendent had recently cnne to
the city end endeavored to secure promises
from several members of the union that
they would withdraw and who Is said to
have used strong language to those who In
sisted on standing their ground. A com
mittee will be appointed to watch this fea
ture of the struggle between the companies
an dthelr men.
New Members Tnke nfn.
Several new members were taken In at
the meeting and two or three who had
dropped out were reinstated. A committee
wns appointed to gather 1iforniatlon and
furnish It to the press. This committee
Is mode up of one man from each of the
five branches of tho commercial telegraph,
work. Other members were Instructed to
do no talking for publication.
The secretary read an official report from
headquarters, showing there was no conflict
between President Small and Vice President
Koenonkamp and that the slight misunder
standing over the San Francisco strlko
was duo to the Inability of the two men
to get Into communication promptly. Vice
President Koenenkamp made an offlclul
statement to the effect that perfect har
mony exists and that President Small Is
fully supported by the executive board.
Considerable feeling was shown over the
position taken by sub-chief operators with
regard to the union. It was stated th.it
these under officials had benefited equally
with the rank and file In tho general raise
secured by the union from the telegraph
ccmpnnles and that their opposition to
the union was unfair.
A report on conditions at San Fran
cisco showed that about two days' busi
ness was hanging on hooks and that mes
sages were passing through Omaha from
twenty-four to Torty-elght. .hours old
Members were urged In no manner to
Interfere with men working tn tha San
Francisco office, and there will be no tam
pering with wires or equipment. How
ever, ft gorilla warfare is on and It Is
probable receivers In San Francisco will
receive little consideration from rapid
senders.
II. Braul, president of No. 10, presided
and W. J. Klrkland, secretary, was at his
table.

The St. Joseph Live Stock exchange has
given up the light against the packers nu
their post mortem Inspection buying order
and bc traved the Intel vsts of their patrons.

porter. "It Is simply a betrsyal of the Interests
It should represent and a blow to the mar

These expressions ore fairly representa
tive of the general sentiment among live
stock commission men and raisers through
out the west toward the action of the Live
Stock exchango at St. Joseph In adopting
the resolutions which provide for tho ac
ceptance of the post-mortem Inspection of
entile at the yards.
It Is openly charged by the exchanges
and Interests In other cities bveldes 6L,
Joseph, Chicago, Omaha, St. Louis, Kansas
City and Sioux Clly, that theso resolutions
were drawn by and adopted at the com
mand of the packers. It ts openly charged
that these resolutions were "fixed up" In

Instructions, went bac kto St. Joseph and
had the resolutions adopted.

tho action of tho St. Joseph exchange dally.
Hero Is the way In which the Chlcugo)
Live Stock World proceeds to treat tho
mutter;
Ignoring the unanimous sentiment of the
live stock growers and shippers, It hus re
SKiniled nwkly to the crack of the lush,
wslked tamely to the block and had lis
mnnacles forged In position.
St. Joseph stands discredited as a com
petitive live stock market. It Is merely a
spot on the map where a few communion
men do as they rocelve Instructions from
packers' headquarters, and where live stock
shippers, provided they aro foolish enougli'
to send stock there, have ftn opportunity to
barn a tew days later what packers have
decided to allow them for It.

This Is the position which Omaha and
South Omaha dealers took at tho outset
and It Is the position they have main
tained unflinchingly. Only Saturday Tho
Bee was advised by an official of tho
South Omaha Live Stock exchange that It
I had not and would not recede from this
poaltlon. He said It had not and would
! not agree to the post mortem Inspection
1 of anything. He said the South Omaha
! exchange would never subscribe to the
'. agreement made by St. Joe and scorned
I uch concession. He said the matter was
"ln the lr" at 8oUth mah nJ

as the one at St. Joe had done.
