ARMY IS NOT RELIABLE
French Government Anxious Over the Recent Incidents of Military Mutiny. fife HAS A TOUGH PROBLEM TO FACE Labor Treason To Be Punished—Revolt of the Wine Growers ■“<l Albert Given Himself Up and Pays Clemenceau His Loan British Commons Adopts the AntiLords Resolution. JZ.
Paris, June 27—The government's hope that the return of Marcel.n Albert, leader of the wtue growers' movement, to the south after his interview with. Premier Clemenceau would result in a change of attitude on the part of his followers hns been blasted. The federated committees have decided to maintain the civic strike, and the "redeemer” or “apostle,” as he is variously termed, had no alternative but to surrender himself to the authorities in -accordance with his promise to M. Clemenceau. Nevertliel ss the excitement in the disturbed territory continues to subside, and the government believes that, barring some unfortunate incident which, may ag in inflame the people, the latter will gradually eome to their senses and realize that, a prolongation of the present situation will only Increase their misery. Troops Give Trouble Now. The government now, apparently, is quite as much concerned about the insuborinatlon manifested among tioops as the attitude of the wine growers, for in spite of the efforts to minimize them new incidents showing the lack of discipline in the army are occurring daily. The government seems to have awakened to the necessity of dealing sternly with the demoralization engendered by the Socialistic anti-m!|l- - propaganda, and the press commends the decisions of the government to exile the mutineers of the Seventeenth Infantry, and to postpone indefinitely the bill providing for the abolition of courts martial In time of peace.

increasingly difficult, anil M. Clemenceau’s sole object seems to be to weather the storm until the summer vaeatlonof pnrllamentaffords a breathing spell. The government has announced that It will prosecute the members of the General Federation of Labor who signed the manifesto felicitating the Seventeenth regiment on the mutiny, and Inviting their comrades In the army to follow their example. Albert Surrenders Himself. Montpellier, France. June 27.—M. Albert’s comrades of the committee of \rgolllers have from their prison issued a statement repudiating the “apostle” and declaring their solidarity with the decision of the federated committees to continue the civil strike. M. Albert arrived here and was conducted in an automobile to the detention prison, where he surrendered himself. I-a ter M. Albert sent a letter to Premier Clemenceau as follows: “In two or three days you will have proof that I kept my promise. Inclosed find the 100 francs you loaned me. for which accept my thanks. As agreed, I have surrendered myself to the authorities.” ATTACK ON THE LORDS Campbell - Bannerman’s Resolution Passes the Commons, 432 to 147. London, June 27.—The three days’ debate In the house of commode ended at midnight when Premier Camp-bell-Bannerman's resolution in favo of curtailing the power of the house of lords in vetoing bills passed In the house of commons was carried by 432 to 147, nmid loud ministerial cheers. The amendment introduced by A. Henderson (Laborlte, Durham) for a to al abolition of the house of lords was previously rejected by 315 to 100, the minority being composed of Lab-rites, Nationalists and a few- Radicals. In this division the Unionists as a body abstained from voting. The speeches throughout have been of an Interesting character, maintain ing a high level. Herbert H. Asquith, chancellor of the exchequer, in winding np the debate remarked incidental ly that in his view the opinion of the country was against a single chamber. By adopting Premier Campbell-Bnnn»r-man’s resolution, he said, they woo'd take the first and longest step on the road to the final emancipation of the people. The premier on leaving the house was given a great ovation. DEVILTRY OP RUSSIAN REDS Bomb Exploded in a Public Square to Aid a Big Robbery.

HAYWOOD’S DEFENSE
His Lawyers Begin by Laying a Further Foundation for Im* peachment of Orchard. HIS REPLIES DO NOT HESITATE Witnesses Swear That He Threatened to Kill Ex-Gov. Steunenberg. \ Others Testify to His Frequent: Consultations with Detectives of the Mine Owners—lndependence Station Explosion.
Boise, Ida., June 20.—The first direct testimony in defense of William _D. Haywood has been offered, and it Hvas chiefly directed toward showing that Harry Orchard, blaming Frank Steutienlcrg for the loss of his interest in the Hercules mine, had threatened to have revenge by killing him, and that theeonduct ot Orchard and Sterling, both before the Independence explosion, when they were frequently seen together, and afterwards, when Sterling called off bloodhounds that were following Orchard’s trail, justified the inference that the mine owners Inspired the crime. Orchard Called on Again. The calling of the first witness for the defense was preceded by a further examination of Orchard to permit the defense to complete its formal impeaching questions. These questions were nearly all In connection with the allegation that Orchard killed Steunenberg because of an alleged g.udge growing out of the sale of his interest In the Hercules mine. Orchard, maintained bis old calmness and spoke in the low pitched, soft tone. He agdn denied that he ever threatened to kill Steunenberg because of the Hercules mine, and again asserted that he sold his Interest in the mine two years before the trouble that drove him out oti northern Idaho. -r— — Witnessed Contradict Him. Two witnesses called later in the day swore that Orchard did threaten to kill Steunenberg because of the Hercules matter, and the defense has prepared the way? for such testimony from a dozen more witnesses. The two heard were F. R. Reed, once of Crip pie Creek, and now of Goldfield, Nev.. and Charles A. Sullivan, formerly of Cripple Greek, and now a watchman in the Brown hotel In Denver. Redd said he heard Orchard make the statement* and-threat in the miners’ hall In Cripple Creek, and Sullivan swore that while he and Orchard were fellow boarders at John Neville’s place In Cripple Creek Orchard repeatedly said thft.t_but.for Steunenberg he would lja

The cross-examination showed that both were members of the Western Federation of Miners and that Sullivan was a friend of Hdywood, Moyer and many of the union leaders at Cripple Creek. Dr. I. L. McGee, a mining broker of the Coe or d’Alenes, another impeaching witness, swore that Orchard told him in 1904 at Wallace, Ida., that he was a “spotter” for a detective agency. Orchard denied this conversation'; denied that he was in Idaho at any time in 1904. Several witnesses, principally women, Who kept lodging houses at Cripple Creek, located Orchard at various conferences toith Sterling, the detective for the Mine Owners’ association, prior to the Independence explosion, and there was a further showing as to meetings between Orchard and D. O. Scott, the detective for the Florence and Cripple Creek railway. Another witness told of the effort to locate the men guilty of the Independence station outrage by starting a bloodhound from the cl.air rung used in pulling off the mine explosion. He said the dog took the read to Colorado Springs, the one over which Orchard fled in the night', and „tbat when he reported to Sterling he get enters to call the dog off. Sterling said lie knew who blew up the station, and , later said that Steve Adams bad done so. Tbe state fought the admission of the bloodhound story, and also opposed the admission of evidence covering general features of the Colorado labor law, but in both Instances the court ruled with the defense. One of the witnesses did not come up to the expectations of the defense. Ira Blizzard, contracting agent for the Florence and Cripple Creek railroad at the time of the Independence depot explosion, said lie Immediately went there and saw the wire and chair rung which served as clues. The defense alleges that the Independence station was all but an abandoned affair and that its destruction might have been planned by others than the Western Federation of Miners, “What sort of a depot was it?” asked Darrow of the witness. “The depot was In good condition,’/ replied Bllz ard. “It was a nice,,,up-to-date, station, with a good waiting room. It had a platform in front of It.” BJlznrd declared that the Independence depot was usedas a stopping pla{*Cbut there was no ticket agent there.
