ELEVEN THOUSAND FIRE LOSS

miri In I'm I on llloel.. Fully
Covered by Insurance.
Fire In the Tnxton block Friday night
did 10.KI damage to stock of the W. 8.
I rtalduff confectioner, according to the stuto
' inent of Mr. Halduff Saturday morning, the
' Roi.da was stored in the basement under
I I'.ie Mandelberg Jewelry store and of a light,
Inflamable nature and some damage was
caused by smoke. It was all covered by
Insurance.
Smoke and water caused about $1.0fl
damage to the A. Mandclherg Jewelry stock
chiefly to the leather goods. This also
was covered by insurance, which has al
ready been adjusted.
At 12:30 o'clock Saturday morning dense
volumes of smoke began pouring out of
the west and north windowa and doors of
the Faxton block and out of the man
holes In the sidewalk. The amoke carried
a strong; Incense of burning pine and Its
density made It difficult to locate the (Ire.
It was finally located' In the south end of
the basement under Mandelberg's Jewelry
store and the Halduff confectionery and
cafe. BaldufY's bakery occupies the entire
basement, and some of the partitions and
coal bins were found to be on fire and also
the floor of Mandelberg's store. The smoke
was drawn up through the two elevator
shafts and filled the entire building,
creating the Impression at first 'glance that
the entire block was on fire. The amoke
was so thick In Mandelberg's store that
firemen could not enter until a draft was
created to clear the rooms.
The firemen were somewhat worried over
a report that a quantity of gunpowder
was stored under the sidewalk In front of
the Townsend gun store. By 1 o'clock all
signs of fire were gone.
this morning were lengthy, making abuu.

Instructed the Jurors In accordance Willi
his ruling made some days ago after argu
ment by counsel as to the admissibility of
the evidence bearing on the connection ot
Bteve Adams with crimes committed in
north Idaho. ThlH evidence, and also that
Introduced hy the defense regarding de
portations In Colorado and the employment
of rinkertnn detectives by the mine own

consider on the ground tint no prior con
nection had been made In either ease
Instructions as to the necessity for clear
and conclusive proof beyond any reasonable
toubt of every material fact were followed
by the quoting of the Indictment on which
Haywood, together with Mover and retti
Kone were arrested. On this subject Judgo
Wood says- 1
Three Count In Indictment.
There arc llnee counts In the Indictment
but the substance o,' each of them is the
unlawful willful dellheiate, preniedlaled
fend felonious killing of the said Frank
Hteuneiiberg with malice aforethought
The essential element of the offense
?hargd In the Indictment consist of tin
following features:
(1) There must have been a killing- i'i
that killing must have been unlawful' lib
It mut have been willful; (4) it must have
been deliberated upon; 1S1 It muat have
been premeditated; i) It must have been
accompanied by malice In the mind of tin
person or persons doing the killing, and.
inless these features, and each and every
M of them, are proven to your aatlsfae
Lion, beyond a reasonable doubt then lh
lefendant cannot In anv event be i-on-rtrted
of murder In the first degree.
The language of the statute Is given as
16 murder In the first and second degree
nd voluntary a,nd Involuntary man
slaughter.
Continuing, Judge Wood said;
If It Is possible for you lo reconcile tl.e
facts In this case upon any reasonable
theory consistent with the innocence of tho
d.-fenduiii. William I). Haywood, It Is your
duty lo do so and tltui 'lie defendant not
guilty.
I further instruct you, gentlemen of th
Jury, that while proof has been admitted
of the commission of other crimes by the
defendant and his associates, and lending
in prove the coinmiatun of such oilier
Crimea by them, that it has only been
admitted for the purpose of showing the
existence of a conspiracy to accomplish
certain object and that such crimes ami
the crime resulting In the death of ex
Unvernor Steunenberg aa well, were all In
cident of audi conspiracy, bui you muat
not forget Unit i he defendant Is being
tried for the murder of Frank Steunenbwg.
and for that crime alone. But you are
privileged to take such other mutters Into
consideration us part of the evidence In
the rase and as Incident and circum
stances bearing upon the question of his
guilt upon the charge of murder of Frank
St -until berg.
Three Possible Verdicts.
I'nder the indictment in this case the
defendant may, If the evidence warrants
it. be convicted of murder of the first de
gree, murder of the second degree or inan-
al.iughter.
II makes no difference, however. In this
case what crimes have been committed In
Colorado, in the Coeur U'Alenes or else
where, or who is responsible for the com
mission of such crimes. If any there be.
The defendant cannot be convicted unless
the state has established beyond a rfa
8., nuhle doubt that he Is guilty ot the felon
ious killing of Frank Hteunenherg
A conspiracy, within the meaning of the
criminal law. consists of a combination be
tween two or more persons for the pur
pose of accomplishing a criminal or un
lawful object, or a lawful object in an
unlawful manner. As applied to this case
and under this Indictment proof of con
spiracy Is only proper insofar aa it may
tcihl to show a common design to encour
age the particular murder charged against
the defendant, and it can only be Intro-

duced for the purpose of establishing the
position of the members of the combine aa
accessories to the crime of murder.
What Constitute Conspiracy.
It la not essential to the formation of a
conspiracy that there should be a formal
agreement between the parties to do the
act charged. It Is sufficient if the minds of
the parties meet understanding so as to
bring about an intelligent and dellbefute
agreement to do such acts and commit
the crimes charged, altnough such agree
ment be not manliest cd by any formal
words. A conspiiacy In tha first Instance
may be established by evidence having no
relation to the defendant, by acta of dif
ferent person at different times and
places or by any other circumstances which
prove Its existence. It Is sufficient if the
state proves beyond a reasonable doubt
tharauch a conspiracy existed at the time
of the commission of the unlawful act and
that the defendant on trial was a member
of such conspiracy. An act done by a party
to an unlawful conspiracy In furtherance
thereof and naturally flowing from the
common design Is the act of each and all
of the conspirators, and where murder Is
commlttod as the res. lit of such a con
spiracy each one of the conspirators, even
though he was not present at the place of
the crime, if he aided, abetted and en
couraged the commission of the unlawful
acts resulting in the crime charged, is
guilty.
If the prosecution has fslled to prove
these facts beyond a reasonable doubt you
should find I he defendant not guilty. If,
however, you believe In this case from (lie
evidence beyond' a reasonable doubt that
the defendant, William D. Haywood, aided,
abetted, advised and encouraged the kill
ing of Frank Hteunenberg. then the de
fendant Is guilty snd it would be imma
terial whether he was actually present at
the time of the killing or not.
Corroboration Is Kaaentlal.
The Jury is Instructed that the witness.
Marry orchard, claims that he was an ac
complice In the commission of the offense
charged in the Indictment. I'nder the
statutes of this state a person cannot be
convicted of a crime upon testimony of an
accomplice unless such accomplice Is cor
roborated by other evidence which of Itself
and without the aid of the testimony of an
accomplice tends to convict the iefendant
with the offense charged, and the corrobo
ration is not sufficient if It merely shows
the commission of the offense or the cir
cumstances thereof.
By corroborative evidence is meant sddl
tlonal evidence of a different character to
the same point.
The law icws with distrust t lie testi
mony of an accomplice on account of the
motive he may have for laying the respon
sibility of his crime upon another when bv
so doing he may secure Immunity for his
own participation in the crime charged.
Kcr this reason the law exacts such cor
roboration, and although the Jury may be
lieve that the testimony of an accomplice
Is true, still the Jury could not convict the
defendant upon such testimony une they
further find that the testimony of the ac
complice is corroborated by other and in
dependent evidence.
This corroborating evidence need not be
sufficient of itself lo establish the guilt of
the defendant, but It must tend In some de
gree to Implicate and connect the defendant
with the commission of the crime charg-a.l.
How lo Establish Corroboration.
In order to ascertain whether or not I he
testimony of the aci-tinphre la corrobor
ated, a the law provides it must be tit-fore
a conviction would be warranted, you
should eliminate from the cae the evident e
of the accomplice an. I examine the evidence
of the other witnesses, with the view to as
certain If there be evidence lending to con
nect the defendant with th offense. If
there is. the ace.iplic i orroboruted : if
there Is no inculpatory evidence, theie is no
corroboration, thoigli the accomplice mav
be corroborate.! m regard lo anv numlier
of facts swinn to hy hlic.
In this case the si.ite r, lies upon circum
stantial eyidence to establish the connec
tion of the defendant with the conspiracy
sought to be proven hv the evidence taken
i In connection with the direct testimony of
me accomplice, narry tircnard.
In order lo further Justify an Inference
of legal guilt from circumstantial evidence,
the existence of the Ineulpstorv facts must
be sbsolutely Incompatible with the In
nocence of the accused upon any rational
theory, and Incapable of explanation upon
and reasonable hypothesis other than that
of his guilt.
As to Promise of Immunity.
If you believe from Hie evidence that the
witness. Harry Orchard, was Induced or In
fluenced to become a witness and to testify
In this case by any promise of immunity
from prosecution or punishment, or by any
hope held out lo him that If he testified
against the defendant he would not be
prosecuted or punished, then the Jury
bhoiild take audi facta into consideration
In determining the weight which ought to
be given to testimony so cbtalned. Such
testimony should be received by the 1ury
wnn caution ana scrutinized with great
care.
And If from the evidence It appears that
any favors have been extended bv the
authorities of the state of Idaho to the
witness. Harry Orchard, ami there is any
promise, either express or Implied, relating
to further favors to lie received bv him on
account of his testimony In this rase, then
those are proper muiters for the con
sideration of this turv as affcetlng th
credibility of his testimony.
Certain articles have been received In
evident In the Miners' Magazine for tha
sole purpose of determining whether or not
any motive existed upon the pait of the
defendant to participate in the offense
barged In the indictment ami not for the
purpose of establishing In any wise the
commission of such an offense.
Oefrudant aa Witness.
The Jury is further instructed that bv
statutory provision the defendant In a
criminal case is made a competent witness
In his own behalf, ami where lie testifies
as In this case, becomes the same In all
respects aa any other witness. aiul ....
testimony must he tested bv the same
I in. .-n iram mai are applied to other
i witnesses, and the Jury may take Into con
sideration, the interest lie may have in
me,, case in neierniinlng the weight to
he given to his testimony.
In conclusion, you are' to determine the
question us to whether or not the de
fendant killed and murdered Frank
Steunenberg as charged In the Indictment
or aided and abetted such killing If so
you should find him guilty. If not you
should find him not guilty.
I'nder the Indictment In this case tho
defendant may, if the evidence warrants
it. tie convicted of murder of the nrt de
gree, murder of the a coud degree or
manslaughter.
Gentlemen of the Jury, the court now de
livers this case into your hands. It Is
your duty lo consider It and deliberate upon
It without fear ami without favor. If the
evidence shows that any Individuals, any
person In any private or oflh lal capacity
or any class or classes of people are In
terested In any way In the conviction or
u .initial of this defendant such fact or
facta should not be considered by you or

IsONHOX. July 27.-RU' William Ramsay,

researches Into radium emanations. In
this connection the announcement Is made
that he has succeeded In degrading copper

The Lancet today says the discovery
marks an epoch In the history of chemical
science and believes It Is n realisation of
the transmutation of metals. The an
nouncement Is likely to reawaken the dis
cussion of the transmutation of elements,
which raged a year ago, when several
prominent scientists repudiated the trans
mutation Idea, while others Jusl as strongly
supported It. Sir Ramsay himself modestly
disclaims ability to transmute elements,
but he believes that the result of his de
gradation of copper will be of far reach
