AWFUL STORY OF EIDER
Former Ontario Cheesemaker's Tale of Cold-
Blooded Assassination.
A despatch from Boise, Idaho, says:
For three hours and halt on Wednesday
Ilarry Orchard sat in the witness chair
at the Ilaywocd trial and recited a his-
tory of crimes and bloodshed. the like
of which no person ill the crowded
court roost had ever imagined. There
was nothing theatrical about lite ap-
pearance on the stand of this witness
upon who.se testimony the whole case
against Haywood. Meyer and the other
leaders of the Weetern Federation of
Miners is based. 11 was a horrible, ',e-
vening, sickening story, but he told it
as simply as the plainest narration of
the most ordinary Incident of the most
humdrum existence.
To Haywood the story was of .vital
interest. Ile sat with his lawyers sur-
rounding hint in such a position that
he could fix his gaze on Orchard unin-
tr rruptedly, but so placed that oniy
those very near his chair could see his
face. From first to last lie gave Un-
wavering attention, and when occa-
sionally Orchard turned his eyes on his
old comrade whom he was denouncing
as a procurer of assassination Ilaywood
niet therm squarely and unflinchingly.
Mrs. Ilaywood sat beside her husband
all day, but their daughters did not
elate to court until the afternoon. Ilay-
wood's moldier, Mrs. Crothers, and his
half-sister, Miss Crothers, sat near his
wife.
AN ONTAI1IO \IAN.
Harry Orchard when culled to the
siand and sworn gave his residence as
the penitentiary.
"Are you charged with any crime?"
asked Mr. Hawley of the prosecution.
"1 nm charged with the murder of
Frank Steunenberg and waiting trial.
Answering further questions. he con-
tinued: "1 was born in Northumberland
colony, Ontario. Canada, in 1866, and
nm, therefore, 41 years old. Harry
Orchard ds not my true sante. I have
gone by that name for about eleven
years. My true name is Alfred Hors-
ley. I came to the United Stales :n
1896, first to Spokane, where I remain-
ed a week. i went 10 Wallace, Idaho,
in March or April, 1896. 1 first worked
for Markel illothers, driving a milk
wagon, and remained there until about
Christmas, 1896. 1 Then went to n
wool and coal yard in Burke, Idaho,
end was engagerr in that business until
the spring of 18.99, and on my own ne-
cennt ter two years. in 11198 1 sold a
hall interest in the business to \Ir. Mc-
Alpine. \1y business in Canada was
making cheese. I sold all buy interests
in the wood yard and %vent to work
mucking in the nines in \larch, 1899,
oi.nlinuing al it for a month. 1 immedi-
ately became a member of the Western
Federation of Miners."
COUR D'AI.I:NE TROUBLES.
Orchard described the Cour d'Alene
country, giving the railway connections
between the different cities and mining
camps,
':Stale xs'hnt unusual occurrence (here
was at Burke upon the morning.' .1
April 29, 1899," commanded NI. Ilawl.-v.
"On the morning of April 211. 1899.'
said the witness, "when 1 got Ihrough
ereektasl 1 was told there was a special
meeting of the union and everybody was
expected to be present. I went to 'ho
meeting. The meeting w•ns coiled to
order by the secretary, who said it had
been derided that day to go to \Ward-
ner to blow up the still at the Sulli-
van and Bunker Hill mines mid to hong
the superintendent.
SEIZED NOII'TIIF.IIN I'A(:IFIC 'I'iRAIN.
"Arrangements had been mode to cut
the wires along the railroad and take
possession of the Northern Pacific
iran1. At Gem we were to be joined
by the Gent Union. and together we
were to proceed to \Wardner. While the
Secretary was telling us 'hal was
planer' by the Central Union lite Pre-
sident of our local came in and said
he hail not been Informed of the meet-
ing. '(Vhen told the purpose he ob•
jccted to it and there was a discussion.
The notion h1 go to \Wardner was lin-
nlly corried by a small majority. After
the vote nearly every man decided to
go.

which will bring his bloody careerdewn

he killed Steunenberg. The story was!
told before an anxious crowd, %Ricin
siaringly watched every movement and'

ened and grew scary of the Marfuf
details.
IN PAY OF THE DEFENDANTS.
Orchard swore that after his visit to
Denver when he got the money for kill-'
ing McCormick and Beck he was con-
stantly in communication and in Ute pay,'
cf either Ilaywood or Mayer or Pelti-
bone, Perkins or Davis; that one or all;
of theta suggested his various crimes
and that at all meetings held after each

ArrrMf1 I LI) ASSASSINATIONS.
Thursday's murder record exhibited
accounts of repeated attempts to assas-
sinate Gov. Peabody. of Colorado, ex-
Adjulant-General Sherman Bell, who
commanded the Colorado militia at the
strike of Cripple Creek in 1903, Judge
Gabbert, and Judge Goddard, of the
Colorado Supreme Court, who had ren-
dered decisions against the strikers, and
Fred Hearne, manager of the Colorado
Fuel and iron • C.ompany. None of these
was successful, though one attempt to
get Judge Gabbert caused the death es
a mining engineer named Marion Wal-
ley.
This, aside from the Steunenberg
murder. was the most tragic of the
day's stories. Orchard said that Pc-ttt-
L(•ne and Haywood urged hien to g.'t
Judge Gabbert, and that he and Pelle
t.one made a bomb for that purpose.
it was made like all the bombs that
Orchard has described.
THE STEUN1:NB1a3G NIURDi:i1.
Orchard was not asked to go into
detail about the Steurenberg murder.
The story has been told often. But
he gave all the essential particulars,
told how he and Simpkins has passed
under the names of Hogan and Stt-
n-•onds. how they had made one bomb
and set it in vain, how he had tried
vainly to shoot Sleunenberg, and how
he and Simpkins made the bomb that
finally killed the ex -Governor. Ile told
how, on the evening of Dec. 30, he saw
the ex -Governor silting in the lobby et
the Sarateg•i Mee!. 1. how he hustled ap
to his room aid got the bomb. wrapped
it up In a newspaper, and hurried Io;
the Steunenberg Manse and planted lt'
outside the gale, with the usual nt-,
tichment of a string, fastened It to the,
gate and connecting with the deadly
little bottle of acid.
"I hurried away from the house
then, he said. "and nbent tiro blocks'
t' uy i passed the Governor. 1 ran
as hard as i could then. 1 wanted to
get back to the hotel before it went
off. but 1 %vent into the ber-room and
helped the bartender do up a package
he was having trouble with. Then 1
went up to my room."
Orchard said he Ind left a giant cap
in his pocket and a battle of acid, and
the cork came out and set off the cap.
11 made a noise like a gun, he said,
and he was afraid everybody would
rear I1. 11 burned his mat, too.
"Then 1 wens down stairs and went
in to (sinner." said the witness, nn.l
the dreadful tale was completed. The
crowd in the court -morn look n deep
breath. the first for ninny minutes.
Orchard blinked his eyes rapidly. It
was the only trace of emotion he had
shown duritlg those two dreadful days.
1 I was rat near breaking down. how-
eser, for while the layers whispered
he volunteered a trivial correction cf
one detail of his story.
