HOWARD, CORNER 16th ST. Bee 6-17-'07- OPEN SATURDAY EVENINGS.
JUDGE WOOD AROUSED
(Continued from First Pace.)
publications of this morning came from
the prosecution. But they are very ob
vious. The presence of prospective Jurors
alone prevents my saying what I would
otherwise."
Judge Wood ordered all members of the
pedal Jury panel to leave tho court room,
excusing them for one hour. He then
directed Mr. Richardson to proceed.
Prosecution Exonerated,
. "I want. In the first place," said the
attorney, "to exonerate counsel for the
prosecution from what has occurred. This
man Ac-hard, after being secluded for
fifteen months. Is suddenly mad accessible
at this time while we uro in the midst
of Jury selection. It occurred In tip ex
amination of one of 'the Jurors the thcr
day that there was s?me preiudlce per
haps against . this man Orchard and his
testimony.
"Thereupon the governor, I this state
organizes a party and takes the newspaper
fraternity not all, but the representatives
of the Associated Press and that portion
- Of the press which Is reporting the trial,
. agreeably and colorably lown to the peni
tentiary, of which he is the supreme offi
cer, and hns them Interview this man.
"It was done, your honor, for the ex
press purpose of influencing these Jurors
to give credence to this witness.
"It was a dastardly outrage on this de
fendant. Anything that the court can do
to protect Itself and to protect this de
fendant and Insure to him the fair trial to
which he Is entitled will be heartily sec
onded by me.
"We do not believe tho attorneys for the
prosecution are, responsible. We have been
watching them closely, and If they think
they have done anything that we do not
know, they are much mistaken."
"I call on them now to denounce these
things as emphatically as we have done.
Criticise the Governoi.
"We especially object to the purported
Interview of the governor, saying what
he had done to establish the credence of
the witness.
"If it was not patent before that the
governor of this state never intended that,
this defendant should have a fair trial, it
Is very evident now."
Clarence Harrow, for the defense, was
next to be heard. He said:
"There can be but one purpose In this
Joint reception of Governor Gooding and
Us friend, Mr. Orchard. It was to influ
ence the case at this time. I scarcely
know how to frame my attitude In proper
language. It seerns to me that this effort

to give Mr. Orchard credence must have
come from the disclosures made here as
to the attitude of certain talesmen."
Mr. Darrow characterised Orchard's
statement as maudlin religious Idiocy. He
said that every man must know that the
statement of the governor as to Orchard's
waiver of Immunity was absurd, to think
that a man would willingly put a halter
around his neck. Mr. Darrow exonerated
the prosecution from any hand In the
matter, but denounced the incident as the
most flagrant attempt to Influence a Juror
he ever saw.
Court Bends for Prosecutor.
Judge Wood interrupted to ask that the
county prosecuting attorney be sent for.
Mr. Darrow said he had not thought
enough yet to say what ought to be done
; In tho premises. It might be that the
i case should not be tried at this time. "We
' are entitled," he wen on, "to try this de
' fendant face to face with all the witnesses
against him. I think the governor should
be called In here before this court. Not
another citizen of the state is so much
j responsible as he. If this matter calls
for contempt he should be punished."
j Mr. Darrow said the newspapers should
be given to understand what Is expected
of them In the administration of Justice.
J He clroed by Buying that he was prepared
to leave the matter to the court.
! Mr. James II. Hawley. leading counsel
for the prosecution, followed nnd Bpoke at
considerable hiilh. He said that ho
deeply regretted any occurrence that might
prejudice the case, but he disclaimed any
responsibility.
Mr. Hawley pointed out that for the last
twelve months there had been a continuous
circulation of papers misstating what was
evidence or that purported to be evidence
and evidently Intended to Influence the
case. "This particular witness (Orchard),"
he said, "has been continually referred to
In a manner calculated to prejudice him in
the public mind. Many persons who are
Interested In the defense have, we admit,
talked to prospective Jurors.
Persons who aro Interested In the de
fense have, we admit, talked to prospective
Jurors. This we have heard of and only
this morning a matter of this kind wus
reported to us as having taken place on
the lawn of the court house.
Iteturnlrg to the case in hand, Mr. Haw
ley "pointed out that the position of Orchard
had for the last year been consistently mis
represented. The prosecution had been be
sieged by newspapers for an Interview with
Orchard.
Mr. Hawley, referring to tho published
Interview with Orchard, said that he could
see no reason why the authorised repre
sentative of the Associated Press should
not be allowed to see Orchard In order
that It might give the public Information
as to the mental or physical condition of
Orchard. Mr. Hawley could sea no objec
tion in this. He could not see how any
right of the defendant could be impaired.
He could, however, understand hew an in
terview with the governor purporting to
give an expression of opinion by the gov
ernor flight have a bad effect.
Mr. Hawley did not believe there was any
Idea on the part of "Governor Gooding that
what he had to say would iave any influ
ence on witnesses or Jury. Mr. Hawley
said the prosecution heartily deprecated
anything that would In any wsy Influence
Los oaM. Be far aa the good taste In the
matter was concerned he agreed with the
defense, but as to the effect he entirely
disagreed.
"Tho court would like to be advised as to
its duties in tho case," said Judge Wood.
Continuing, Mr. Hawley repeated he could
see no reason why the Associated Press
should not be allowed to see Orchard and
send out the Interview.
Mr. Hawley said if any Injury was done
It was done to the prosecution, which was
the loser.
Senator Borah followed Mr. Hawley, He
said that ever since they reached the city
all of the newspaper men had frequently
requested permission to see and interview
Harry Orchard. They did it as a part of
their newspaper business.
Idea of Newspaper Men.
"It Is going a long way," he declared,
"to say that the first newspaper men of
this country, representing the first news
papers of the country, had as their objeot
the influencing of these Jurors, or that they
attempted In any way to interfere with the
case on trial."
Senator Borah charged that the defense
was running newspapers whose sole object
was to create prejudice.
"We do not run newspapers," declared he,
with a display of feeling. "The newspaper
men who have come to this trial have a
perfect right to their opinions and to an
expression of them. They would be ninnies
and fools if they came here without opin
ions. I resent the proposition that they
intend to control or Influence this Jury in
any way."
"The question is," said Judge Wood, "was
it Intended on the part of anyone."
"I don't believe It was, said Senator
Borah. "I will say this, though, that if
this man Orchard had been In my keeping
I would haVe put him on exhibition long
ago and kept him there.'
"Nothing has passed from the control of
the prosecution calculated to hurt the men
here on trial. If any has been done it has
been done to the prosecution."
ttaestton Governor's Hlsht.
"What right has tne governor of this
state to be prosecuting this case?" shouted
Mr. lUchardaon. ,
"The governor is the chief executive of
the commonwealth," rejoined Senator
uuiah. "tin believes a crime has been
committed which involves the integrity of
this state and If he bad laid down in the
face of his duty he would have been unfit
for his high office If he is to be criticised,
let the criticism come from the people of
the state and not from the attorneys rep
resenting the defendants in this case."
"The people did criticise him,-' shouted
Mr. Darrow, "and he would not have been
re-elected if It had not been for the Mor
mons." "In that case," declared Senator Borah,
"the Mormons for once Indicated their
good citizenship and their love for law
and order. The governor may have be:n
Indiscreet yesterday In this matter, but
that Is all "
Judge Wood Interrupted to say that his
course In the matter had been made clear.
He said that some time ago a proposed
Juror had reported that be had been spoken
to In reference to the case.

ALPORT ON CHURCH UNION IS READ
Dr. Charles Roberts Presides at -sloa
as Moderator ana) Great la
tereat Is Manifested by
Irlecates.
COI.l'MBl S, O., May l?.-New Impetus
was given to the movement for Sabbath ob
servance today by the Presbyterian gen
eral assembly when resolutions were
adopted looking to a thorough organisation
for Its advancement, Practically the en
tire afternoon was given to the discus
sion and adoption of tne report of the
special committee on Sabbat h observance.
A provision in the resolutions submitted
which urged Presbyterian families to give
preference in buying to those werchants
who clnso their shops on the Lord's day
wa sstrlcken out on the ground that it
would, in effect, amount to a boyoott.
The resolutions adopted recommend the
appointment of a committee In each pres
bytery to promote the movement for Sab- I
bath observance, urge ministers to die- '
courage funerals on the Sabbath, disap
prove of sports, excursions abd other secu
lar uses of the Sabbath; urge the omission
of Monday recitations In seminaries and
colleges so as to aid students in ob
serving the Sabbath, favoring a Saturday
half holiday for all workers, and condemn
ing Sunday newspapers. It was stated that
there are upward of 8.000.000 persons now
employed on the Sabbath tn the United
States.
The assembly also received and adopted
the report of the committee on church co
operation and union. Provision was made
for representation at the next congress of
the federation of churches. The report
further recommended that each of the In
corporated boards of the Cumberland
church branch proceed to transfer all
property and accounts to the proper boards
of the Presbyterian church to carry Into
full effect the agreement for a united
church.
Iteport on Church I'nlon.
The assembly was opened at 9 o'clock
today by the new moderator. Dr. Roberts.
Mayor Badger welcomed tho assembly on
behalf of the city.
The report of the special commission on
church union and co-operation was then
submitted. The entire report was listened
to with great Interest, but the portion
awaited with most Interest was that in re
gard to the articles of agreement adopted
at the last general assembly, To put the
articles Into effect it is necessary for the
assembly to elect thirty-two representa
tives to the council of ths reformed
churches In America, holding the Presby
terian system. This council was to consist
of four representatives, ministers or rul
ing elders, from each of the constituent
churches for each 100,000 communicants or
fraction thereof up to 300,000, and where a
church has more than 300,000 communicants
then four representatives for each 200,000
communicants or fraction thereof. The
last assembly referred to this committeo
the work of providing a plan for the eleo
tlon of the representatives of the Pres
byterian church in the United States of
America. The committee today submitted
the following plan:
"The first two members of the delegation
to be moderator for the time being and the
stated clerk, the other members to be
divided lnto three classes, consisting of
five ministers and five ruling elders each,
one class to be elected by this assembly
for one year, one for two years and one
for three years, and the . election there
after to be annual, one class of ten mem
bers each. The report recommended that
the assembly appolnt,a committee to nom
luate the thirty delegates by classes.
Union with Reformed Church.
The committee also reported having dis
posed of the following matters In the man
ner named:
As to union with the Reformed Presby
terian church, action to be postponed by
the general synod and the committee rec
ommended that the assembly postpone fur
ther negotiations "until God in His provi
dence shall open a way for their resump
tion," Informing the general synod of the
reformed church of this section and assur
ing the reformed church of a desire for
its continued prosperity.
As to relations with the reformed church
In the United States at a joint meeting of
a committee of the reformed church and
the Presbyterian church In the United
States of America, at Charlotte, N. C.
Resolutions were adopted recommending
to both assemblies appointment of com
mittees to further consider the question of
closer relations. The committee therefore
recommended that the matter be recom
mitted to the committee on co-operation
and union.
Federation ol Christian Chareh.
As to the plan of federation of ths Chris
tian churches of America ths Presbyterian
church In the United States of America
being entitled to thirty representatives in
tlie federal council, the committee recom
mended that the twenty-four members of
the committee on oo-operatiou and union
be made representatives and in addition,
the following: Kev. J. Ross Stevenson, Rev.
D. Stuart Lodge, Rsv. William L McEwan,
D. D., Hon. Robert N. Wilson, Hon. John
M. Gaut and S. 8. Brownell
Concerning certain overtures from the
Presbyteries of Bellingham, Olympls, Puget
Sound and Spokane, regarding organlo
union with the reformed churches holding
the Presbyterian system, the commltee
recommended that the assembly adopt a
resolution expressing willingness to enter
into such relations of such co-operation,
federation or organlo union as may be
mutually acceptable. This because ths re
formed church in the United Stales has not
had opportunity to act on the resolution of
the committee on closer relations of lis gen
eral synod.
Reconstruction of Boards.
Upon the proposition for reconstruction
and consolidation of the boards and perma
nent committees of the Presbyterian church
in the United States of America and of the
Cumberland church, the committee recom
mended that the assembly adopt resolu
tions directing each of the Incorporated
boards to proceed as promptly as possible
to transfer all its property and accounts
to the appropriate board of the Presby
terian church in the United States of
America and to legal dissolution unless
otherwise directed by competent legal
counsel; and that in the meantime each of
these boards be considered as holding
boards only unless otherwise specifically
directed by the assembly. The committee
states that the situation has been compli
cated by the bringing of civil suits In the
courts and for this reason advises the as
sembly to proceed cautiously and take no
action beyond that recommended.
The committee recommended that the
amended charter of the Cumberland uni
versity be reoognlsed as the law defining
the relations of the theology department
to the general assembly; that the trustees
shsll reqnlre all theological professors to
adopt the confession of fnlth of ths Pres
bvtrtan church In the United States of
America before sssumlnir their duties, and
that at least two-thirds of the trustees of
Cumberland unlverklty shall h members
of ths Presbyterian church In the T'nlted
BUtes of America. On adoption of these
