When taken to task by his. wife he declared amid hiccoughs that he haJ gone to tho Ferris wheel and the wheel had got stuck. His wife said she could not accept sueh an explanation.

1 "Why, nty dear, if you don't believe It," said the man. "Ill take, you out and show you the wheel." Next considered by the attorney was the blowing up of tho Independence depot. He demanded to know why young Neville, who was said by Orchard to have been with him the day of the explosion, was brought to Boiw, but never put upon the stand to, corroborate tho confessing witness. "There is something behind this prosecution," declared Richardson. "But I do not mean Mr.

Hawloy or Senator Borah. I have no fault to And with them. I think that the Jury, the Court and every one will say that In the main this case has been tried fairly and decently by the attorneys on both But somewhere there Is Influence winch kept young Neville off the stand." CALLS EXPLOSION PLOT. Richardson charged that the Independence explosion was the result of a plot by the mine owners to extirpate, root and branch, the federation of miners which was trying to control wages and secure work for Its members under proper conditions. Answering Mr.

Hawley's taunt In his, opening address as to why the defense had not put Steve Adams on the stand, Richardson declared he wanted to be perfectly frank. "It would have beon a case of dog eat dog, and Hawley and Borah knew it. Under the same Influences that worked on Orchard, they secured a confession from Adams which he repudiated. They have the confessions and we have the repudiation. The whole truth, gentlemen, Is that one was afraid to put him on the stand and the other didn't dare to.

"In passing here. I want to say that the only reason Moyer was put on the stand was that not one scintilla of evidence was brought here to connect him with any crime except the unsupported word of Orchard. As to George A. Pettlbone, he will take the stand at his own trial, and explain satisfactorily the transactions he had with Orchard." Richardson spent the last half -hour of the evening session in providing an explanation of the explosion at the Bradley residence In gan Francisco. He arguel the Impossibility of a bomb explosion, but Insisted that a reservoir for escaping gas had been formed in the walls and under the flooring, and that when it came in contact with the lighted cigar, the explosion occurred.

F. Richardson began today the opening address for the defense to the Jury which holds the fate of William D. Haywood in its hands. On account of the heat Judge Wood announced that he had aban doned the Idea of holding three court sessions a day. The views of the Jurors were taken end In agreement with those of coun sel It was arranged to hold morning and evening sessions until the case goes to the Jury for final decision.

The evening session will continue fronf 6 to 8:30. i For fiftwn minutes before Mr. Rich rdson began to speak, the courtroom had to -bo closed against tho throng vntcn nougnt admittance. Mr. Richardson plunged directly Into the death of Gov.

"Tcnih I shall devote myself, as I have been Invited to do, to the reasons why certain witnesses did not testify for the prosecution and as to why certain others did not testify for the defense.

"Eleventh, and finallyI shall discuss this case as It appears before this Jury. i "When I have finished these eleven subdivisions, I will have done all that 1 van do to help the Jury In arriving at a proper and Just verdict in this case." MUST BE CERTAIN. Discussing the law as applied to Orchard, Mr. Richardson said the corroborating evidence ifl support of the confessing witness must be so strong that standing by Itself, separated and apart from the witness's story. It Is sufficient to remove all reasonable doubt as to the defendant's guilt He charged that the State had no corroborating circumstances of this character, as relating to tho murder of Gov.

Steunenberg, and for that reason a general conspiracy was charged arid all the events of the Colorado labor wars were gone tnto. ''But, gentlemen of the Jury," said Mr. Richardson, "the general conspiracy that the prosecution complains of Is a lawful conspiracy. If this be a conspiracy then you are in a conspir acy If you are a Democrat and vote the Democratlo ticket The Western Federation of Miners was in a con splracy to elect Its men to office, to shorten hours and fix wages, and every one of these objects is lawful yet In this country." Delving Into the Coeur d'Alene trou bles, Mr. Richardson declared that most of tho mines there were owned by the Standard" Oil Company and he proclaimed that wherever conditions were such as to create a Rockefeller at one end of the line and a man with a gaunt dinner pall at the other, more or less friction and trouble Is bound to occur.

The Bunker Hill property had been turned In for taxation at but after the mll was blown up a loss of $300,000 was claimed. OBJECTS OF UNION. Before taking up the Crlpplei Creek troubles, 1 Mr. Richardson returned to V. I 1 TT tion of Miners and pointed out what Its objects had been to better conditions, to care tor Its sick and dying, the wid ows and orphans of Its members.

He ridiculed the Idea that any one could claim thpt 40,000 worklngmen organized for their' betterment could be termed 40,000, criminals. As to Cripple Creek, Mr. Richardson dwelt again upon tho fact that many of the mines were owned by. the Standard OH Company. Wherever that company operates, be It In Colorado or Michigan, the attorney asserted.

there was always some sort of labor trouble. "And labor," he exclaimed, "always gets the worst of It. I don't know whether labor Is always right or some times wrong, but I do say that It Is not right that the laboring man should bear the brunt of what he doesn't do, Richardson next told of the coming of Harry Orchard into the Cripple Creek district. He recalled the early crimes, of which Orchard confessed selling short-weight cheese, burning the store, gambling, etc. He even gambled away his interest In the Hercules prospect according to his own story," said the attorney.

The defense claims Orchard lost his Interest in this mine by being driven out of the country and it was for this that he murdered Steunenberg. Mr. Richardson went on to explain his statement as to the gambling, that Orchard transferred the mine but temporarily to Dan Carolan, the present owner, and was cheated out of Its re demption when compelled to leave the; country. If this were not true, the State would have, put Carolan on the The attempted train wreck on the Florence and Cripple Creek road. Richardson discussed briefly as having been conclusively shown up as a "Pln-kerton plot." He next entered upon the Vindicator mine explosion arguing that it was an accident pure and simple.

Orchard, hr. said, claimed credit for this as he did for many other crimes he never committed. KO CONNECTION SHOWN. T1W contention of the defense, Rich ardson declared, is that no matter whether Orchard committed the crimes to which he confessed or not, no con nection has been shown between Or chard and the defendant at bar. Con cluding his discussion of the Vindicator explosion, Richardson declared again that the preponderance of tes timony showed it to be an accident.

Orchard's testjrnony as to receiving money from the Western Federation of Miners for crime was not corrobo rated by a single witness, Mr. Rich ardson declared, and should not be considered. Both Moyer and Haywood denied that they had ever given Orchard money and the State had failed to show any fund from which only such money couia nave Deen paid. As to the value of their testimony, the attorney said Moyer and Haywood stand in practically the same light as Harry Orchard and are entitled to the same belief. As to the coming of the militia to Cripple Creek, Attorney Richardson said they came at the behest and In the service of the Mine Owners' As sociation, whose members were as scssed so much a month to buy the certificates of indebtedness Issued by tne state.

Referring to Moyer's arrest at Tel lurido for descratlon of the flag. Rich ardson declared the thirteen statements Moyer had hAd printed on the folds of "Old stlory" wer indubitable truths and would be shown as truths when applied to evidence In the Haywood case. REVERE "OLD "As to 'Old Glory I want Jo tell you men that the flag is as much thought of and as niich revered by the Wes tern-Federation of Miners as by any comoinAtlon of capitalists who use It for their purposes in any part of the wona. Mr. Richardson declared that whl'e under the ruling of the court he was not allowed to discuss the deportations from Cripple Creek or the employment of detectives In tho various miners' unions, he wanted to dwell ss much a possible on conditions Coioraiio.

"I want to weave Into your the thought that will come to you when we reach the tragic event st Caldwell; so you will understand why we nave on the one side, Harry Cr chard, finely dressed and clothed and In safety, Hlthouph he Is the confostod murderer of jour late Governor, and on the other the effort to lake the blood of these men to jjet them out of the wsy at thft Instigation and th benefit of those nsines i-hal! -ren tlnn hereafter.

No Englishman would have dared to so presume.

Imagine my astonishment when His Majesty, instead of resenting such familiarity, seemed to quite approve of it, and they fell to talking in the most confidential manner." "Well, go ahead, gentlemen," said Mr. Clemens, as the newspaper men lined up to greet him. "I rather expected that you would come to inquire how I like America." To the question, "How did you enjoy dining with the King?" he. replied, "the King enjoyed It."

The exact number will not be known until the cor rected list of saved Is sent out frdm Eureka and San Francisco. One entire Los Angeles family, ex cept one member, was lost; Pasadena Is represented In the list of dead with three or four names, and Santa Ana possibly by ono. In addition to these, there were among the lost several per sons who had Just left the homes of Los Angeles friends after having been entertained here, some of them for several months.

News of the wreck brought grief into scores of Los Anseles homes. Many persons from this city had departed recently for the north, intending to take steamer from San Francisco, and some of them had failed to specify upon what steamer they intended to sail. Their relatives were, therefore, uncertain as to their fate, and In many cases they are still uncertain. Local offices of the steamship com pany Rita every newspaper omce in the city were besieged with Inquiries from anxious relatives, who feared that their loved ones might be among the Until the list of saved was received, there was no possible way of allavin these fears.

After entertaining their guest with automobile rides and trips about Southern California, the party left this city. Friday, on the Coast Line. They secured passage on the ill-fated steamer, and according to the press reports, all were drowned.
