STATE III EFFORT
TO GET ADM
SECONDARY FACTS
Husband Trying to Wean Her From "Musical Obsession."
Attorney Borah Argues in the Haywood Case for the Presentation of a Telegram Pertaining to Conspiracy.
BAD WEATHER HAS CUT. DOWN THE ATTENDANCE.
tate Has Produced Witnesses That Confirm Various. Phases of the Testimony Given by Harry Orchard.
Boise, June 15 Disagreeab'e weather has reduced attendance on the Hay'ward case. None of the Haywood family was present when the state resumed today presenting incidental corroboration of Orchard's recital of
crime. Attorney Borah argued for
the admissability or secondary evidence and asked that the state be per
mitted to show the substance of the telegram Adams sent from Ogden to
Haywood, not endeavoring to show
that the telegram ever reached Hay
wood but wanting to show it as
declaration of conspiracy and there -foir binding on nil conspirators. It made no difference whether it ever reached Haywood or not, ho axffwd. Attorney Richardson argued against th admission of s;;c!i evidence. Governor Peabody and wife and daughter came into court during the argument. The court overruled the objection. Detective Pindar quoted Adams' telegram iA follows: "Wm. D. Haywood. Denver, Colo. I am in trouble; send me $75 at once. Steve Adams." Joseph C. Houston, assistant cashier of the First National bank, Denver, identified Haywood's signature to cancelled drafts. I
A plan is inuler wav to take, Steve Adams to Colorado to be tried for the murder of Arthur Commins at TeJluridp. This is conditional on Adams refusing to testify against Haywood and corroborate Orchard. The plan is to dismiss the Tyler case at Wallace on which Adams has been tried, so he can be taken to Colorado. In addition to the documentary evidence, presented Friday, the state produced the grocer who had a shop opposite the house where Fred Bradley lived in fcan Francisco, and who said that he knew Orchard there under the name of Barry. He corroborated much that Orchard had testified to regarding his doings in the neighborhood of the Bradley home. Peabody Shudders at Comb. Witnesses were also produced who corroborated the story Orchard told of the failure of his first attempt to blow up the Vindicator Mine anJ regarding tome things that he swore to as to the successful second attempt in the same mine, when McCormick and Bradley were killed. Ex-Governor Peabody of Colorado, on whose life Orchard made numerous attempts, all of them he says at the instigation of the federation leaders, was one of the most interested spec
tators in court during the afternoon session. He was shown inside the rail, and took a chair that backed up directly against the court clerk's desk. He had scarcely sat down when somebody called his attention to the i fact that on the clerk's desk, so close that he could reach out and touch it, stood the leaden case of the bomb Orchard took down to Canon City to .blow him up with. The governor 'looked at the thing, blinked hard a moment and then turned his back upon it. Later he was asked what he thought of it. "It did not look good to me," he said. "It didn't look a bit good to me." Police officials of Ogden established the arrest there of Steve Adams and A. T. Williams. They "were sealed np in an east-bound car loaded with fruit and when arrested for trespass each had ? brace of revolvers. When released through the influence of a detective, who was a brother Mason of Adams, they went straight to the office of the Western Union and sent a telegram to Haywood in Denver.
Contents of Telegram Barred. The defense headed off an attempt to get the contents of the telegram before the jury, but the- state indicated that it would return to the charge later and further develop the incident. The state, through an official of the

IT IS HINTED THAT IN.CASE THE DECISION IS AGAINST THE PENNSYLVANIA IT WILL CARRY THE CASE HIGHER.

Or. S. ft. Smith of East haven has gone to Madison, liui.. where he is attending to duties in connection with the new insane asvlum bein?; built at that place- rr. Smith is an advisor for the new institution.
The three members of the Indiana Railroad commission, their clerk and engineer will come to Richmond June 23. and inquire into the local situation surrounding the interchange of freight
between the Pennsylvania and C, C. Sr L. railroads. Their action is taken simply because the Pennsylvania refused to be a party to the interchange originally. The men will carefully go over the proposed location for the connection and the physical conditions will be
studied thoroughly. The engineer will make a survey of the proposed spot of union and in fact the commission will take in al! the details of the sitxiation before they meet with the representatives of the two railroads and shippers on the evening of the same day in the Commercial club .rooms. The legal advisors for both the C, C. & L. and Pennsylvania will appear before the commission in this city and set forth their arguments in favor or against the interchange. The shippers too will have their best speakers present and oratorical fireworks are expected when the matter
gets well under discussion. It is hardly probable the commission will decide on anything definite while in this city but will consider the matter for some time before a final decision is rendered. The C, C. & I- is as willing as ever for the interchange while the Pennsylvania is as set against it. It is hinted that the Pennsylvania will car
ry the matter higher, it tne decssion of the commission is against the big corporation.

j been decidedly too raany questionable
advertising schemes in Richmond recently and that it is again the duty of the merchants to draw a halt on such advertising as it effectively did a few years ago. The advertising the merchants mean is that carried on programs, tima tables, etc. This medium the merchants have found has paid iftle or no dividend and is sometimes called "charity" advertising in
that it is given simj'ly because the promoter is a friend or the organization is a local one, and the merchants feel that granting a few inches of advertising is good policy. The merchants claim that they have been victims for solicitors to work upon for much advertising of this nature and it has been a loss of much money to them. It was the concensus of opinion at the meeting Friday night, that the lines should be drawn closer in reference to advertising and some discrimination shown. It was also stated at the meeting that the merchants of Richmond have lost several hundred dollars each year by unprofitable advertising methods. A committee was appointed to
which all merchants belonging to the association will refer advertising solicitors before they grant advertising This committee will have to sanction
it befo-e the merchants will take any space in the advertising schemes. The committee appointed is composed of Cash Beall, chairman, E. W. Craighead and John Zwissler. The merchants also decided to told more frequent meetings than has been the custom since the Merchants' Association and the Commercial club joined.
G. W. CALLAWAY IS SICK
Former Member of Board of Commissioners.
G. W. Callaway Is in poor health. Mr. Calloway, whose home is in Milton, was formerly a member of the Wayne county board of commissioners and is a well known man. Several Richmond men, have recently visited him.
John Brown, the colored man who attempted suicide Thursday afternoon, after shooting his wife and Mrs. Lulu Fee, is reported as being greatly improved, and the attending physician, Dr. W. G. Huffman, states that the man has a fair chance for recovery. Friday niglif he slept " nearly all the time and1 his breathing was quite easy. The wounds in his right lung were dressed this morning and appeared to be in good shape. In case inflammation does not set in. Brown will undoubtedly recover. It was reported Friday that the man was not only suffering rom his wounds, but also of pneumonia. His physician states
that Brown has not the slightest symptom of pneumonia. Brown is still guarded closely-by the police. The past two nights he has been guarded by Officer Bundy. An officer has also been detailed to watch him throughout the day. It was not feared by the police that the man would attempt to escape, owing to his enfeebled condition, but it was thought that he might make a second attempt to kill himself. Does Not Want to Die. Brown does not want to die now. He
apparently realizes that recovery
means a long sentence In the state prison, but in his great desire to es
cape death this fate seems to have no terrors for him. He talks but little
of his deed, the full significance of it
probably not having dawned on him as
yet.
SETTLEMENT PLAN IB FREIGHT CASE COMESJ NAUGHT President McGowan of the Traction Company Has Refused to Accept Two of the Substitutions in Franchise. COUNCIL TAKES ACTION AND WILL STAND PAT.
Does Not Desire to Drive Interurban Freight Business Out Of Richmond, But Will Insist Upon Rights.
Once more are the city and the Trrrt Haute Indianapolis & Eastern traction company at a deadlock in the settlement of the acute traction question ia Richmond. Two of the substitutions placed in the traction franchise agreement submitted to the board of public works have been rejected by President Hugh McGowan and the council has notified Mr McGowan through President Merrill of the board that thesa two substitutions must stand without altercation. At the present time it looks like the traction problem In Richmond is a hoieless ravel which will never be straightened out. Friday afternoon, over the long distance phone. Mr. McGowan informed1 Mr. Merrill that the clause which, compelled the traction company to acoept transfers to and from interurbam anl city cars, and the clause which provides that no traction freight train run through this city, shall be composed of more than two cars, were ob
jectionable to him and his associates.
Mr. McGowan stated that he would
leave at noon today for a summer out
ing in Europe and he requested Mr. Merrill to have the council consider the
objections raised and to take some ac
tion before noon today. Mayor Schillinger late Friday afternoon issued a call for a conference between the council and tho board of publicrrwork At - thl conference Mr. Merrill laid McGowan's complaint before the city officials. He also stated that McGowan's objection to the limitation of cars constituting a freight train was not a serious one, this being so intimated by Mr. McGowan, but that the traction company would- positively refuse to accept the transfer clause.
Council Will Stand Pat. The courK-.il men voted in regarfl to the stand to be taken by the city on the transfer question, and it was unanimously decided to insist that the objectionable clause be retained in tho franchise agreement. This morning Mr. Merrill communicated with Mr. McGowan over the long distance phono and told him of council's action. Mr. McGowan did not seem to be surprised but said that he regretted the sction. Mr. McGowan stated that in no other city which the T. H. I. tV E. runs through, were transfers to and from interurban and local cars accepted, and that his company would refuse to establish such a precedent In Richmond. He gave as his reason that If. his company agreed to such a plan the traction cars would- be crowded with local passengers and that their through
