th f-d3rot!on; Oeorae A. Pettlbon-?, a

' lit I mid to have made a confession and
!t has been the task- of the prosecution to
endeavor to corroborate this confession
wherever possible. The fart that Hoy
't wood's "in Is the flr?t called for trial Is
.'. rerorded as Indicating thnt the prosecuting
' attorney believes their strongest evidence
Is against the secretary of the federation,
.Th outcome of hls(case will determine the
action to be taken with regard to Moyer
j find Pettlbone. Bhould there be a convlc
i t!nn of Hnywood, Mover, r nnd -Pettlbone
will bo called for trial In the order najned.';
', On the 'other band, nn acquittal of Flay
I wood undoubtedly would mean nn aban
.:. donlnent of the case against the other ae-
fused tfflcers of the miners' organisation.
Orchard, will not be tried until all of the
. other cases are disposed of.
'-Orchard's Fate .Uaared
'. It Is slid that the evidence against him
. Is so strong that he cannot-hope for other
than a conviction of murder In the first
degree, regardless of the verdicts upon
,: the Indictments against Haywood, Moyer
- and Pettlbone. Orchard, It Is said, has
been promised no degree of clemency what
' soever In giving evidence tor the state.
Havlnrr admitted his active part In the
'heinous crime of blowing the former gov
ernor pf -Idaho to pieces with a. bomb at
'tha gate of his residence, Orchard- unques
tionably will have to pay the capital pun
j tshment for his confessed crime.
Caldwell, where tho murder waa com-
mltted, la the 'county seat of . Canyon
. county A. change of venue to Boise, the
'' capital city of Idaho and county seat of
Ada. county, was granted on the motion
,tf the defense, It being allleged In behalf
; of the prisoners- that a fair trial In Canyon
:' county would be nn Impossibility. Hay
' wood. Moyer and Pettlbone were trans
ferred to ths county Jail here, which com
prises the basement floor of the county
court house. The court for whlrh the
'esses was set Is linown as the court of the
t'Thlrd judicial district. The presiding Judge
Judge Fremont Wood, a native of
'. Malno, a former practitioner at tho bar
; In thin city. Judge Wood Is regarded as a
I careful, deliberate man, and the prosecu
tion and defense In the present trials be
r'lleve that he will leave no stone unturned
; to see that Justice la done.
' Orchard, the self-confessed murderer of
Governor Steunenbcrg and the accuser of
Haywood, Moyer and Pettlbone, is confined
In tna Idaho state penitentiary, several
mllrg out of this city. He Is kept under
! -careful guard at all tlmea.
i '. Cnae Sot Dlaensne l on Streets.
Boise, at the outset of the famous trlols.
' 3 on the surface almost tha least Inter
ested community of any In the United
- State. The case of the miners ) never
discussed upon the streets, and the author-
j Itles of the city, county and stato have
.. taken oareful but not spectacular steps to
'prevent any sort of disturbance.' '
The peoplo bav( determined .that thie
t rases nhall be tried In tha courts, not upon
j. ihe street corners. There s-ems to be no
uurstlon here but that a fair trial will bs
r iisd and the best of feeling apparently pre
' vails among those most prominently con
r neeted with tha case. Even the more
"radical of the supporters of the accused
" miners ore In good humor and are ready
ta chaff with their acquaintances over the
. hdvantagrs or shortcomings of socialism,
f -The good feeling nnd widespread desire to
lj re-rent anything oven nppronchlng a flare
j of disorder wns evidenced late Inst night,
When Mayor Haines summoned before him
'.a. socialist orator who wns here eight
months ago haranglng audiences at the
.street corners and protesting the absoluta
Innocence of the men accused of the mur
'dr of Governor Bteunenberg. The mayor
, explained to the socialist editor and
f speaker that tha conditiors of quiet and
-calm prevailing In Oolse was so gratifying
L to tha citizens that they did not think It
; advisable that there should be public speak-
Ing at this time.
It was nutated out that tha matter of
rth guilt of the accused parties was a
n atter of determination for a Jury and
publlo oratoiy on the subject nilglit tend

? Which would be regietted on all sldus. Ths
'' Interview was moat satisfactory, ending by
,ins mayor's caller declaring that he had no
1 Intention of speaking during the trials and
t that he agreed with all the mayor said. '
,V - Speculation as to tbs length of the Hay
'wood trial has resulted l;i giirssrs ranglpg
from two weeks to five months. There are
Soma who believe that the task of, selecting

These otlluers were elected Thursday
morning by the Nebraska State MedTcal
association,, which closed Its three-day ses
sion at Crelghton Institute later In the day.
Lincoln was unanimously chosen as the
plnco of meeting for tha next annual' as
sociation. A lively discussion was precipitated by
the Introduction of 1 a resolution by Dr.
A. B. Bomera ot Omaha deprecating tha
practice of paying and receiving commis
sion, on the part of physicians In order to
ecure practice from others, particularly
as relating to surgical . cases. The reso
lution strongly condemned the practice as
contrary to professional ethics and recom
mended the expulsion of members from the
county and state medical association who
Indulged tha practice and that this asso
ciation go on- reoord as unalterably opposed
to the practice:
Dr. Homers spoke In favor of the
resolution as did Dr. Hepperlln of Beatrice,
Ur. Inches, Dr. Aiken and others. Dr.
Hepperlln said he operated a sanltorlum
and had been compelled to pay commis
sions for patients and strongly deprece.ted
the practice as vicious and' Inimical to
professional ethics. He had, however,
quit the practice, but was aware that It
was still being continued.
"The payment of commission Is generaMy
practiced by specialists," ha said, "and
the practice could not be too strongly
condemned."
Wide Publicity Advocated.
Dr. Somers was In favor of the widest
publicity being given the d.sapproval of
the practice of paying , commissions and
that this association should go on record
as strenuously opposing It.
"Let us charge a fair and honest Tec
for our services as physicians and then If
the case must go to a surgeon or specialist
let him exact his fee wholly Independent
of tho fees of the regular practitioner, but
enter Into no colluBlon with them. Lei.
cucli stand on his own merits."
Dr. Hepperlln said:
"There Is another evil we should take
cognizance of, and that la the commis
sions demanded of us by druggists."
The discussion became animated and a
motion Anally prevailed by a unanimous
vote condemning the commission practice
In all its phaxes and referring the matter
to tha county societies to discipline the
commission takers and glvera.
A resolution from the County Medical so
ciety of Fillmore county asking the state
association to assist that county In the
prosecution of professional fakirs and
street corner specialists' was also discussed
at length, arid the sentiment, while largely
In favor of. granting such assistance, was
finally referred to the commute on public
policy and legislation.
X resolution was adopted declaring the
Western Medical Review of Omaha aa the
official organ ft the state association aa
prevailing under the previous contract, ex
cepting that a fee of II per member should
be paid. that, publication, quarterly in ad
vance, The contract reaerves to the asso
ciation the right through Its committee on
publicity to censor the publication of ob
jectionable advertising matter. This, oo Ha
mate of control la to consist of the presi
dents of the society and th two lice presi
dents, ' . .
Xanlnatloa roaxmltee Dropped.
On motion of Dr. Everett of Lincoln, It
was decided. to abolish the nominating com
mittee as a useless, adjunct. All nomina
tions for office shall hereafter be made in
the open house of delegates and elections
be made by secret ballot. I
Amendments to th by-laws were passed i
providing for raising the assessment fee
from K to 13; setting aside 11 per member
aa a medical defense fund and authorising
tho medical defense committee to employ a
competent attorney, paying him a sufficient
retainer in case arising-from alleged mal
practice. The recommendation of the board of
councilors to approprlAte the sum of $200
aa a medical defense fund waa adopted.
A motion to the effect that no money of
thla association shall be appropriated by
this house of delegates for the payment
of any hrtel bills or railroad fare, for the
expense of the delegate to the American
Medical ' Educatloral association meeting,
except for councilors, wa lost by a tt
vote.
A resolution of sympathy Was unani
mously voted -by m standing vot to Dr.
Morehead, In respect to his recent bereave
ment in the death of hi wife.
Tho visiting' women, members of the
families cf tne delegates, were entertained
Th'.irsday afternoon at a theater party at
the Orpheuni.
Smoker Ends Cession.
" Ths association closed It annual meeting

Modiral Institute, at which about 160 mem
ber of the association were royally en
teitulned. Refreshments were served xnd
n entertaining program wag enjoyed. Carl
P.elter convulsed the audience with hi
torlf; Oube Rasgorshek mystified them
by hi alelgrrt of hand tricks, and the Paci
nian Cowboy quartet charmed them with
several of their characteristic piece. Jo
Unrtcn sang two selection In a ploaslng
manner and responded to several encore.
Dr. Fred Lake, who wa chairman of th
committee on arrangements, said: 'This
year's meeting of. the. association waa the
Urgent In point of attendance since the
association was organised. Many of the
members brought their wive with them,
and they have been constantly entertained
by Omaha women with lheater patties,
automobile rides, etc., and many express
their regret thnt the meeting does not last
longer." Dr. Lake wa unable to attend
the smoker last night . on account of a
stranger. In the person of a new daughter,
arriving at his home yesterday.
At the meeting yesterday afternoon the

Von Mansfelde of Ashland to fill the va-oant-
place a regent of the State university.

Many Rail Broken.
After tho adjournment of the meetings
of the director of the Union Pacific and
Southern Pacific today Mr. Harrlman gave
out a letter from Operating Officer Krutt
schnltt, which he had rend to the directors
of both companies, showing that 448 rails
had been broken during February, of which
179 were ninety-pound rails, which had been
In use only five or six month. This waa
a little Indication of what the railroads
had to contend with. As the companies did
not make the rails they were not respons
ible, he said, but It was, however, one of
the very serious conditions which railroad
companies had to face. Mr. Kruttechnltt
said that he had discussed this matter with
half a,doxen operating officers of other Ilnea
and finds their experience to be about the
same.
General Manager Mohler of the Union

the delay with characteristic American
good nature.' The men organised a base

women strolled about or sat on the blue

COLUMBUS. O., May (.-Representative
Burton, who Is her In the Interest of the
presidential candidacy of Secretary Taft,
said:
"I am here In accordance with the pro
gram ' for a conference In regard to the
candidacy of Secretary Taft and also. In
the Interest of the primary reform move
ment. The pronunclamentos from Toledo
and Cleveland mean -that Ohio will be for
Taft for president, and I am very glad
for that. In Washington In promoting
Secretary Taft's candidacy the greatest ob
stacle I met was the question, 'Why, he
won't have his own state, will he?' or a
question as to whether the state would be
divided. As long as things remained In that
condition I would have Insisted On the pri
mary In order that Ohio should express
Its choice. I now feel that the necessity
for primaries has been eliminated."
Chairman Arthur Voris, the manager of
the Taft forces In Ohio, said today:
"The purpose of Taft's friends In agitating
now the question of the choice of Ohio
republicans for the presidency was to dls
pl the notion that he would not. get the
united support of Ohio. .The events of the
last few weeks seem to have culminated
today in the voluntary withdrawal, without
stipulation, of all opposition and In the
complete reall2atloh " that tho repub
licans of Ohio are solidly for Taft for
president and the movement will go for
ward now with every prospect of hi nomination."
