Identified Orchard and connected him with
the house. They all confirmed the date as
within three or four days of the explosion
and Mrs. Swan swore that sha opened the
front door to get the morning paper a few
minutes before the explosion and saw noth
ing on the steps. There will be further
testimony tomorrow as to tho Bradley
Incident.
Immediately after (he noon recess former
Oovernor Pes body of Colorsdo met Harry
Orchard In tho office of the counsel for
the prosecution. The meeting was unex
pected as far as Orchard was concerned,
and when he saw Peabody advancing to
ward him with hand outstretched, he
blanched and began to tremble. "I am
ashamed to speak to youv governor; I am
ashamed to look at you," faltered Orchard.
"Oh, that's all right, said Peabody,
laughing. "You need not be ashamed to
speak to me now."
Orchard began crying, and when Peabody
succeeded In reassuring him, he said:
"I am glad that t did not kill you, and
that I am spared the thought of that crime
at least."
Orchard and Peabody spent fifteen or
twenty minutes together and parted In a
friendly way.
Orchard's Examination Hemmed.
In opening what he hsd announced would
be his last days cross-examination of Harry
Orchard today. Attorney Richardson, coun
sel for William Dt Haywood, turned sud
denly on the witness and said:
"Have your usual talk with Mr. Mc
Partland this morning?"
"I saw him for five minutes In Mr. Haw
ley's office."
Orchard declared that the Haywood case
had been discussed but casually. Mc
Partland had said he was quite 111 with a
heavy cold and just able to keep out of
bed.
During yesterday's examination Orchard
said he hadwrltten to Moyer from Wal
lace, Idaho, asking for some money.
Orchard had gone to Wallace after the
first proposed attempt on Oovernor Bteun
enberg. Richardson asked further about
the Moyer letter todsy, wanting to know If
Orchard ever received an answer to It.
The witness said ha had received no direct
answer, but as a result of the letter Jack
Blmpklns gave him $100, which he said
Haywood had sent to him. Orchard only
had Blmpklns' word as to where the money
came from.
Leaving Wallace, enroute back to Cald
well to assassinate Bteunenberg, ' Orchard
said he and Jack Blmpklns first went On a
week's hunting trip Into the St. Joe river
country of Idaho. They traversed the
trivfl on which It was said Steve Adams
had killed Fred Tyler, the man for whoa
murder Adams has once been tried, the
Jury falling to agree.
How Ho Drew Expense Money.
The return trip to Caldwell was made
by way of Spokane. Blmpklns said that
as an excuse for going along he would say
he was visiting locals of the Western Fed
eration. This would also enable him to
draw expense money from the Union.
Orchard said there was "no arrangement
at the headquarters whereby Blmpklns
should help In the Bteunenberg plot. On
this second trip to Caldwell, Orchard said
he and Slmpklns wore there for about
three weeks. The witness mado several
trips" to Nampa and Slmpklns went to
Hailey, where tl'ere was a federation lot.il.
During the time his attorney was trac
ing Orohard's movements prior to tho i s
sasnlnatlon of Governor Bteunenberg. Hay
wood scorned utterly unconcerned. He read
several letters which Mr. Durrorv, one
of the defense's attorneys, handed him.
Orchard fixed the date of his second
Caldwell visit as some time In November,
"905.
"Well. If you and Blmpklns went t
Caldwell In November t- kill Bteunenberg,
why didn't you do ItT" demanded At
torney Richardson.
"We did make an attempt to, but It
wasn't successful."
Slmpklns then went back home to Wal
lace, saying It wouldn't be good for etlh tr
himself or Orchard If they were caught In
company.
".Slmpklns had agreed to come," Orcli
continued, "but he began to get scared
after we were on the ground."
Slmpklns Helped Make a Bomb.
"Now, as a matter of fact," asked Rich
ardson, "was Slmpklns with you any longer
than It required htm to visit tho federation
locals at Hailey and Silver City?"
"He was with me In Caldwell about a
week."
"All at oncer
"No; he was there twice."
Slmpklns started for home about Decem
ber 1, 1905, and Orchard, said he had not
Been him from that day to this.
While In Caldwell Slmpklns helped him
manufacture a bomb.
"Was that the bomb. which killed Stou
ner.bergT" '
'It was the same powder. t later
changed the casing from wood to tin.
Orchard denied that he had ever tried to
sell what ho claimed was a nonfreezable
explosive. Orchard also laft Caldwell after
the. failure of the attempt with Blmpklns.
He called. Will Easterly of Silver1 City up
on the telephone and asked him If he
didn't want to come over to Caldwell and
'toko part In a oontracl." Easterly de
clined, saying he was too busy at home.
Orchard thed went to Salt Lake City to get
a man named Shoddy to help him. Shoddy,
however, could not be found.

Returning to Caldwell alone. Orchard
went to the Saratoga hotel, where be be
came acquainted with the employes of the
place. He made no effort to conceal him
self. Richardson wanted to know why It
was that with plenty of opportunity to
kill Bteunenberg on one of the governor's
trips to his sheep ranches Orchard bad de
cided to una a bomb In the olty.
Orchard Distasted with Himself.
"Well, I got disgusted with myself at not
being able to get him, so I finally de
cided to us the bomb and get rid of the
thing and get away," said Orchard.
"But you took the materials for a bomb
when you first went to Caldwell T"
"Yes, sir."
"And you Intended to use a bomb from
the first?" ' .
'tss, sir. If the opportunity offered."
Attorney Richardson Jumped over the de
tails of placing 'the bomb at the Bteunen
berg residence, picking the witness up at
the point where he began to run back to
the hotel after seeing Bteunenberg ap
proach the place of his death.
"Yon were warm and excited when you
leached the hotel, weren't your
"I was warm. I tried not to be excited."
"Tou were calm enough to help the bar
tender tie up a bundle?"
"t field my finger on the string while he
tlei up m parcel."
The cross-examination here digressed to
a scheme Orchard planned to ride a short
distance on a train with Bteunenberg and
set the bomb In a grip under the governor's
seat. With the paraphernalia all ready
Orchard got aboard the train one day, but
Bteunenberg missed It. The fact that others
In the car would have been killed In the
explosion did not appeal to him.
Returning to Orchard's actions after theH
assassination of Bteunenberg, Richardson
wanted to know If the witness hod hot de
liberately gone to his room and scattered
powder and plaster of parts about the
place.
"No, sir, 1 did not," replied Orchard In a
positive manner.
He said he came back to the hotel with
the Idea of cleaning up some things In his
rip.
"What was In Itr
"Some cayenne pepper, potash and acid."
"What were you doing with the pepper?"
VI had It to put on my shoes when neces
sary so as to prevent dogs taking up my
trail."
When Ho Was Arrested.
The examination again digressed to show
that while he was in Spokane Orchard
called on Attorney Fred Miller, now asso
ciated with the defense, and employed him
to sue the railroad for detaining his trunk,
which had been lost In transit. He gave
Miller a power of attorney. Orchard mudo
no attempt to leave Caldwell the night of
the explosion, but slept as usual in his
room at tho Saratoga hotel. The next day,
Sunday, he was suspected and placed un
der parole. Monday he was arrested. The
first attorney Orchard saw was J. B. Sulli
van of Denver. Sullivan had acted once
for Orchard In a civil case In Denver. Sul
livan suggested that Orchard havo a local
attorney.
"Did you tell Sullivan you knew an at
torney named Miller In Spokane?"
"I said I had received a telegram from
Miller. Sullivan wired Miller to come on,
and he reached Caldwell something more
thun a week after the arrest."
Orchard remained In the Caldwell Jail
eighteen days and was then brought to the
penitentiary here In Boise.
Richardson hero attempted to show the
coercion of Orchard through solitary con
finement "Where were you put when you readied
the penitentiary?" he asked.
"In the new cell house."
"What sort of a cell?"
"A steel cage."
"With solid walls?
"The walls are solid, the front and door I
were barred
In Solitary Confinement.
"Vou were In solitary confinement 7"
"I don't know what you call It."
"Were you taken to the penitentiary with
your consent?"
"No, sir."
"Were you advised as to your r'ghta aout
belne confined In the penitentiary?"
"No. sir."
They didn't tell you where they were tak
ing you?"
"No."
"And after being put In the cell you were
not allowed to speak to anyone?"
"Yes. sir, I could speak to the man In the
next cell and to the guard lnront."
"Vou couldn't seo the man next door,
could you?"
"Yes, when he went out In front."
"Who was the man next door?"
"Bob Wedd r."
"A condemned murderer?"
"Yes."
"And for the most part the guard outside
your cell sat silent V
"No, sir. lie spoke a good deal to the
man next door and lie spoke to me often."
"Where were your meals served?"
"In the cell."
"They were passed In to you the same as
to the condemned murderer?"
"Yes. sir. The door was opened and the
meals were handed In."
Orchard said his cell was 5 by 7 feet.
"Tou were not allowed to exerclre or leave
your cell?"
"No. sir, not at first."
"And you were not allowed to read?"
"Yes, sir, I had new books from the
library."
"No i.ewspapers?"
"No. sir."
Enter McPartland.
"Now. after you had been In confinement
ten days, who ilrst tame to see you?"
"Mr. McPartland."
"Did you know him that he was a Plnk
ertonf" "Not until that time."
"So lie came and sat outside your cell
door?"
"No. sir; I was faken to th clerk's office
and saw him there."
Orchard said he complained to McPart-'
ana about being placed In the penlten-
tlary. He told the detective the authorities
had no right to put him In th penitentiary.
i as he had not been tried or convicted.
"Did McPartland talk to you about your
past lifer"
"Yes, air."
"And his past life?"
"Yea, sir.?'
"And the Molly Magulres?" ;
"No, sir; not at first."
"Did he Irst talk of the Bible?" .
"No. air. not at first. Wi did talk
later about th Bible."
"And McPartland tola you about King
David who was a murderer, had repented
and became a man after Clod's own heart?"
"II told m about King David, yea."
"And about what a bad man St. Paul
was?"
"V talked about St. Paul; yes air."
"And about David killing Uriah and steal
Ing his wlf?"
"II told m David had been a murderer
and had gotten forgiveness."
Heart ( Criminal Toara4.
Her at least the heart of the criminal
was touched th thick armor was pierced.
Tears welled to Orchard's eyes. H shook
them off and wiped th stain away with
bis handkerchief. But Orchard did not
hesitate with his replies they ram a
promptly aa ever and lie soon regained con
trol of fctmaelf when Richardson plunged
into a line of questioning Intended to
develop what McPartlaad had told Orchard
concerning U'.e story of the Molly Magulro
In tho anthracite coal fields of Pennsyl
vania Orchard said Mc Pert land had told hlin a
good deal about the lawlessness of the
Molly Magulres. '"
"Did he tell you about .'Kelly, the bumf "
"Tea sir. .'... i
"And that Kelly had oommltted many
murders, but turned state's evidence and
esoaped punishment?"
"He told me be was a witness."
"Did he tell you he had promised to pro
tect Kelly and had kept his wordf
"No. sir." .
"And that after the trial be gave Kelly
SI.OiiO on which to leave the country?"
"No. sir." " '
"What did he tell you?"
"He said a subscription had been taken
up and said 1700 of lW0 had been collected
for Kelly."
"And that he was allowed to leave the
country?".
"Yos, sir."
"And that Kelly 'had reformed and be.
come a good cltlien?"- x
"I think he said Kelly never did reform."
"Did he tell you about a man named
Kerrigan getting off for testifying?"
"No. sir."
Iteferred to Belief In God.
Orchard said that when he was first In
troduced to McPartland the detective
wanted to know if the prisoner believed In
God.
"I had been thinking about such things,"
said Orchard. "McPartland said he be
lieved I also had something to do with the
murder of Bteunenberg and that I had been
at the headquarters of the Western Federa
tion of Miners."
Continuing his questions about the Molly
Magulres, Richardson wanted to know if
McPartland had told Orchard of a man
named "Muff" Lawlor.
"No, sir," tald Orchard.
"Didn't McPartland tell you that up to
the time he was sent Into the anthracite
coal fields there had been but three mur
ders there, but after he became a member
of the miners' union and the Molly Ma
gulres there were twenty or more?"
"No, sir."
Wide Lattltnd Allowed.
Before the witness was allowed to answer
the question, however, there came a vehe
ment protest from Attorney Haw ley for the
state, who declared that no latitude of
cross-examination gave counsel the right to
put an imaginary conversation Into the
mouth of a witness and thus prejudice the
Jury despite the fact of denials of any such
conversations. .
Richardson In reply derlared that Orchard
had been "fitted" for this examination, was
an accomplice and a master criminal, but
was now trying to help the state.
"U there has been Influence or Inducement
as to securing this evidence we have a right
to Inquire Into It," the attorney concluded.
Judge Wood said he would allow the
widest latitude.
"Didn't McPartland tell, you that every
man of the Molly Magulres who turned
j state's evidence was Allowed to go free""' i
i uun i. nnuvr inai ne. oki. some or them
escaped."
"Did he promise you 1700 or S?00 If you
confessed and Involved others?"
"No, sir, ho did not."
"But that was tho Impression he left
upon your '
"I don't know that there was any Im
pression that I doubted the truth of what
he told me about the men."
DOCTORS IN KAUFMANN CASE
Testifies aa to Cnnse of the Death of
Amti Polrels and Stnto
Rests.
FLANDRBAtr. B. D.. June IS. fSneclal
Telegram.) The testimony of Dr. Arthur
Sweeney of 8t. ' Paul, and Dr. Frank EJ.
Coulter of Omaha," experts summoned by
the state, was a feature of today's seesion
of the K""fmann murder trial. Their tes
timony was of Importance in supporting tho
cause Of the prosecution. Dr. Sweeney
stated tho existence of the tnany wounds
upon the head and body of Agnes Polreis,
the girl whom Mrs. Kaufmann is charged
with htvlng murdered, was sufficient to
cause death. The witness also believed the
blood clot found on -the brain of tho girl
was due to blows on tho skull at that point.
He further testified he believed (loath to
be due to blows on the heud with a blunt
Instrument. WlttiM") In company with
other physicians for' the state, had made a
microscopic examination or t- girl's brain
on Thursday' of last week and found It In a
healthy condition with not the slightest
evidence of disease.
Dr. Coulter, amonn- other thin. tin,t

Thus far the state apparently has made
out a very strong case, which has been
strengthened by the testimony of the medi
cal experts. Should the defense, as ex
pected, be based upon the ground thnt the
girl was sick from causes for which Mrs.
Kaufmann was In no way responsible, and
that because of the blood clot forming on
the brain affecting the motor area, she had
no control over her limbs and received the
wounds, bruises and cuts which have played
