Defense in the Haywood Case Has Secured Some Evidence That It Considers Will Be of Benefit to It.

MANY PECULIARITIES SHOWN IN TESTIMONY. Orchard Is Standing Up Well Under the Cross Examination Admits That He Had Worked Long on His Story. Uois", Ji:ne 8. Harry Orchard, con fessed assassin, now trying to fend 1 W. D. Haywood to the gallows, will' r.ot admit that he was a detective at the time he was suggesting and executing dynamite 'plots at Cripple Creek and Denver. This is the only part of his testimony that so far caus- : him ary ptirturukition. He is slow to ansv.er cross questions relating to lii.s connections with the detectives who were working in Colorado to Lreak up the Western Federation of Miners. Orchard cannot or will not explain "why it was that during the time Shcrli.an I Jell was supreme in the Colorado milling towns and the district mound the mines was under martial law, he was never interfered with by the pickets or the officers, though ev ery other union man was subjected, j to couiCant surveillance. Nor doeu lie explai.i why it was that his home was never searched 1v soldiers and the Iioinej of miners who lived next j door to him were ransacked moiethanj once. In all other matters Orchard j is quick to answer, telling of his nrnr-j dors and other crimes with utmost j nc.nchalrr.ee." ; ' Main Story Unbroken. t His main story is unbroken as jet hy cross examination, the defense having succeeded only in discrediting parts of Ms tale. He continues to recite that his assassinations were paid for by Haywood, Moyer and Pettibone. The most significant feature of tips man's testimony is the peculiarity of his memory. He recalls and repeats substance of conversations with Haywood, Moyer and Pettibone, where in they told him to. go. forth with bombs and sawed off shot gun and kill. "Was assassination such a trival nffair with you that you planned and executed murders without heed to when and where and with whom you talked about it?", asked Richardson. "I talked with Haywood,' Moyer and Pettibone about it," was Orchard's 1oft repeated reply. Another phase of this strange creature's testimony is that he was at all times willing and ready to murder Imt he wanted some one with him. Defense is Benefitted. When the court adjourned for the day the defense had succeeded in petting before the jury considerable . evidence that is expected to prove a henefit to them as a result of the thorough grilling of Orchard by Attorney Richardson. By a series of Questions Richardson succeeded in getting Orchard to admit that when he blew up the Independence depot, the government was seriously considering the withdrawal of troops from tho Cripple Creek districts at the request of the Western Federation of Miners, who had proved that they could preserve order. Richardson evidently tried to get the witness to admit the explosion Mas planned by tha mine owners association in order to kep the troops in the district, but the witness succeeded In evading direct statements- of any Jilnd at this time. Orchard insisted that Haywood and other leaders wanted to blow, up -the depot to impress other members of the federation with the fact that the Strike was not broken. Standing up Well. Orchard is standing up well under tross examination, but the de'ense Succeded in getting him to admit that Jus entire story as related on direct testimony had been reduced to writing and that he had been revising and filtering it for more than a year in order to publish it as a history of his life. Questioning along the line of the Independence explosion lcame tirepome and monotonous, but it was jlain that Richardson was trying to pet th witness to tell just whom he paw In the Cripple Creek district when he returned in order to call them in rebuttal. Orchard named half a dozen men that he saw but abFolutoly denied seeing the mine officers or the latter's detectives. He admitted helping John Neville burn his paloon In order to collect the insurrnce to gt-t money for a prospecting tr!; after exploding the mine under the depot. Orchard said he started the fire himself, and after the insurance was collected got a hundred dol lars. He was on the Independence j matter, whep uuuux adjouucd for the i

Visitors Separated Mr. Jessup And His Able Assistants From a Game on Saturday Afternoon at Athletic Park.

GOOD SIZED CROWD ENJiOYED THE PLAYING. Moore, a Central . League Catch, Was in the Box for The Locals and His Work Was the Cream. (BY TORT.) DECATUR 3; RICHMOND 1. Another sad tale to tell. Decatur separated Mr. Jessup and able Assistants from a game Saturday afternoon at Athletic park score 3 to 1. It was a game easy to gaze at and 350 fans enjoyed every minute of it. The contest was a pitchers battle in which Lefty Geyer for Decatur carried off tho pelt because old Dame Fortune was pulling for him. Our second South Bend recruit, Mr. Moore, who joined the team by the "high hurdle route, was in the box and his work was the cream. Never did a twirler have harder luck than this Mr. Moore. He whiffed nine Decatur batsmen, allowed only seven hits and was given faultless support, brilliant at times, and still had to bow the knee to his clever but fortunate opponent, the said Mr. Geyer. Moore's team mates .also tasted of the 111 luck which was on tap. The nine hits allowed by Geyer were scattered throughout the game, many coming after two outs had been made for the locals. Line drives were made off of Mr. Geyer labeled "swats" but scne ' careless outfielder was always in the road and these drives were gobbled in without the fielders moving ten feet. Moore' Good Impression. Moore is onra of the star members of Manager Grant's South Bend Central league team. Friday Moore became Involved in a heated oratorical contest with his manager, wfcicn resulted in the clever slab artist doing a Brodie out of the Grant camp and he started out to win a home with some alfalfa league club in Indian Territory. Manager Jessup who has his ear to the ground listening for ball players, heard the big noise between Grant and Moore. Before the latter could put Dayton in his wake, Jessup got into communication with him and induced him to turn his back on the t UUIli"u u. j d-d lmpression on the fans and with any kind of luck would have won the game. If Manager Jessup can arLronra to toon him Tifr ATonre W?ll lie ! a tower of strength to the team. Justice in Again. Justice, who has been out of the game for several days nursing a sprained side, appeared at his old position Saturday and his work was one of the distinctive features of the game. The veteran showed by his work that he is now back in old time have one of the best second base guardians playing independent ball. He fielded six chances with ease ana poled three hits out of four times up. All of the Quakers played a splendid fielding game. Fisher in left made a sensational one hand catch of a foul ball whHe running at full speed. Burns, the big left fielder for Decatur who played one game for Richmond at first base early in the season, i-tar-red for visitors. He lined out three hard drives, one a-double, and made (Continued on Page Two.) A "Lost Ad."

None of the Work Shown Ts More Creditable Than That From the Brushes of th Quaker City Group.

ESPECIALLY PLEASING TO THE ASSOCIATION. Practically All the Paintings; Have Been Hung and Every-; thing Will Be in ReadinessFor the Opening. Although there will he representa-. tions of the work of famous artists th; country over, at the local art exhibit, which will oin to the public next Tuesday night, no pictures are more; beautiful or better done than those from the brushes or Richmond's owa artists. The paintings and art crea-, tions from the hands of the Richmond! group are absolutely the best that wi!b! ever have been presented to the admir-' ing gaze of Richmond people. Theyj are excellent, and more thoroughly represent the high character of the work done than any of those ever sub.j mltted to the local exhibit by the Qua-; ker artists. t One of the choicest of the entire se,' lection, although it Is with much te merity that one can be selected over, the other, is the landscape painting, a. scene on Clear creek a few hundredj yards back of Earlham college. Tho picture Is from the brush of J. E. Bun dy, and Is a handsome one. The color blendings and outlines are exceedingly well done. , It In with much, pride that the local association is presenting it. t. "A Spring Morning" and. "Near Marietta, Georgia," are two ofMr. Bundy's selections. He has two other selections, however, which have; not been catalogued, but which an very pleasing and a credit to him. Florence G. Chandlee has three paintings listed. "Tho Italian Boy" is an excellent portrait, as are the t paintings, "The Judge" and "The Scribe." Both of these pictures ara large ones and exceptioally well done. Mrs. Eogemeyer's Work. Mrs. Maude Kaufman-Eggemeyer ha' a water color landscape representing a rainy day ou a street corner, which it well executed. Her picture of a colored woman, however, Is by far thi best which' she has yet submitted , to the local association. It Is natural Inj the extreme and all who have seen It' since it has been hung are praising Jt. "Early May," "Oc tober Morning" andf "Shadows on the Snow" and "Autunm; Morning on the Farm," are the four' catalogued pictures of Frank J. Girar-' din, and to say that they are rnof-tf excellent Is stating the matter but: mildly. The entire group Is charac-j teristic of his high grade work, and shows the same poetic sentiment that charcterizes his other works. Thej art association is particularly proud of j these three selections. f A. W. Gregg has three still llfes and" a picture entitled 'The Old King Home-! stead near Centerville." All are final and particularly Is this true of his' still lifes. They are exceptionally well executed. W. A. Holly has a landscape, a fig-, u re, and a painting, "The AwakenlngJ Spring," and an "Old Orchard." AI1 fare well done and occupy conspicuous II places in the exhibit, which speaks wel for their worth. Alice G. Locke has three water colors that are splendid. They certain-j ly reflect credit upon her, and her work generally along art lines. Alden Mote has "Out In the Pas- i ture" and "Hazy Afternoon." on exhib-' It and they do credit to the author. They are very well done, as are all those pictures which he has submitted! heretofore. ; small, is one of the test portraits evert listed in Richmond's Art association catalogue. It Is a most excellent i likeness. The portrait of her father, j Theodore Newman, i well done. Hrj other two pictures are "Mon Favori"' 1 and "Marigolds," all of which make a worthy group. M. T. Nordyke has a number of land-1 scapes that are noteworthy. ; A number of local artists are also represented in the class for sketches, j and in other departments of the ex-' bibit. - Paintings Ail Hung. Practically all of the paintings for j the exhibit have been hung. It is confidently predicted by those who have' already seen a portion of the exhibit! that the hanging is the best that Rich- j taond has ever known. The work has ! been in charge of J. E. Dundy and ha has arranged the pictures as he wouM construct one. They are grouped wc-11, according to size and makeup. !- Mrs. M. F. Johnston, president of 1 the hwal association, has received a -letter from a director of the Manche-!,
