DOES NOT ADMIT THAT HE HAS MADE CONFESSION Denies that Threats Had Been Made to Get Him to Talk or Immunity Promised Has Become Religious, liv Associated Press. UOISK, Idaho, May 1G. Hnrry Or chard, the prisoner witness upon whom the state chiefly relies to prove the charge that the inner circle of the Western Federation had planned the murder of Steunenberg, broke his long silence today and for over a half hour discussed himself and his imprisonment with a represcntntivo of the. Associated Press, whom he had expressed a desire to see. Orchard stated that he has not been gien mistreatment during his confine ment: he denied that force had been used to secure the statements ho made, denied that Detective McPartland and i.lKcora of the state had promised him inimunity for the confessed criino or ru ward for the value of the alleged con fession. Has "Oof Religion Orchard 's manner of conversation t'uring the interview tended to strongly confirm the assertion that he had been reconverted to the Christian religion. Orchard is in perfectly sound health and body, clear and quick of brain. If there was ever anything in the reports that he is breaking in health and mind there is nothing now in his appearance or manner to give them the shadow of suggestion. One condition imposed upon the in terview by Warden Whitney was that there must be no discussion of the ease of the prisoner himself and when he appeared for the meoting ho asked that the same condition be observed. The prisoner was brought by a gnnrd to the warden 's private offices. The prisoner might havo gone in any walk in lifp except the one his-own story sayitne traveled. He enrho in (juietlv, smiling ns he advanced and looking straight ahead out of a pair of twinkling eyes. Silent as to Case His greeting was self possessed and his manner courteous. Orchard is some where above five feet in height, stocky and plumply built, weighing between KO and ISO pounds. "I don't caro to talk about the case as it stands at this time," he said after the introductions. "I am a little lcary about talking to newspaper men, so if you ask me anything I think I should not talk about I'll tell you." "Is there anything as to your treat ment in general that vou'd caro to say t the public f" "Nothing special to be said. I have been treated very well by everyone since my arrest. T e she: iff at Cald well was very kind o me and since I have been here my tieatment has been very fine all that I could expect under the ireumstances. I nm given the greatest freedom. I have a large room with open windows and exercise every day. "I nttend religious services and talk to some men in the hope of doing them some good." As to McPartland s Way "Was any force or duress of any kind used on you by Captain McPart land or anyone else in securing your alleged confession or statement, or have any promises of any kind been made "u in that connection!" "I never admitted and do not now almit that I ever made a confession," said Orchard. "Mind thnt, but at no time was I ever subjected to force or iressure of any kind and anything I said to Captain McPartland was with "ut force or threat of any kind. Any "ng I said was of my own freo will nid accord. "Just as I talk to you here, nothing ' Ise So promise of any kind has ever ' made me by McPartland or ajy 1 ni- else. ' (rhard said he had been dewn the t Lawrence river and about Wist on--"i and other middle spates. Almo'd with pride ho asked his interviews What they tllOUL'llt about thn irrnnt vut,t He was curious to know about the Tlaw jfal and if Delmas o' the west ield hi" own with Jerome cf tho cast. Ho '"Iked. In a general way above the i -motion of tho Haywood jury a ad '1 he was following the proceedings "' Ineal and other western papers. Ho "iked to bo excused from telling whore i-e had been born or what his churvh ""glit be. As tho interview closed and ' guard came to escort Orchard from tho room, tho latter said: uoou-oyc, gentlemen. I am very 8'ad to have seen you. I wish you all fcood health and hopo to see you again." Cell Location Is Secret As a precautionary moasuro tho ac- ai place in the penitentiary where urcuard is confined is kept secret and subject that warden and guards do uine to discuss. Orchard's custodian "'lay Guard Robbins, is a veteran from " state of Maine who came hero agos k. Over tho main cntranco of 'the J ri3on is the startling and mysterious sigu in huge lettors, "Admission 25 conts." An explanation of tho sign costs tho amount named and tho money goes to tho prison library. Governor Gooding tonight supple mented tho statement of Orchard on tho subjoct of possible immunity. He said: "At timos up to n few mouths ago I feared lost in some of my interviews with Orchard I might inndvertontly have given him some hope of Immunity. I nm now positive that ho has no r. pectntion of such n thing at tho hands of tho state. "This was demonstrated to mo one day by Orchard himself whon ho stop ped me in tho middlo of n conversation and warned mo that I was trending on dangerous ground. Orchnrd said: " 'Govornor, I don't want you to say anything thnt might oven lead me to hopo for immunity from tho conse quences of my crime. I do not expect any and nm ready to nay tho pen nlty.'

TELLS GRAND JURY OF UNITED RAILROADS DEAL How the Boodle Was Divided Will Testify Against Cor poration Officials Before Go ing to San Quentin Prison. By Associated Press. SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., May 16. Abraham Rucf today mndo good his declaration of yesterday that he would, following his plea of guilty turn stato's evidenco nnd assist the bribery-graft prosecution iii its campaign against mu nicipal corruption. Rucf, obeying a subpoena from tho grand jury, shortly before 3 o'clock went in chnrgo of Special Agent Burns and Elisor Biggy to tho grand jury chamber, whore ho took tho witness stnnd and submitted to an examination thnt lasted from 3:20 o'cloek until after 5 o'clock. When the ordeal was over ho called the newspaper mon around him nnd said he had promised tho grand jury to di vulge nothing. District Attorney Lang don and Heuoy refused to' make n state ment. From Burns it wns learned thnt tho only matter in which Rucf was questioned wns tho alleged bribing of Mayor Schmitz nnd eighteen super visors by tho United Railroads to grant a change in their franchise allowing the electrifying of its 250 miles of street railways. How Dlwy Was Made If Burns' understnnding of Ruef's testimony is correct the fallen boss told tho grand jury that President Pntrick Calhoun, Assistant Thornwell Mullally, Chief Counsel Tirey L. Ford and As sistant Counsel William M. Abbott of tho United Railroads, paid or caused to bo paid tho sum of $200,000 for tho privilcgo named; that $61,000 of this was Ruef 's "fee," that $50,000 went to the pocket of Schmitz; that tho remain ing $S9,000 was handed to the super visors, thirteen receiving $4,000 cch, another .demanding and getting $10, 6d6, and Chairman Gallagher being paid $15,000 for acting as go-between. After the examination of Rucf was concluded tho grbnd jury remained in executivo session until 0:30 o'clock. Subsequently a statement wns mndo, but not official' confirmed, that in dictments had been voted against four high officials of the United Railroads nnd Schmitz, ns predicted by officers of the prosecution two woks ago. Seen in prison tonight, Ruef said: "I was received and treated by the grand jury with n consideration which touched me deeply. When 1 entered tho room, evpry ono of thojurors arose nnd took me by tho hand. Didn't "Grill" Eucf "When I finished my testimony every one got up and bade mo good night, with a hearty hand-clasp. There was no disposition displayed to 'grill' mo and the trying task I voluntarily set for myself was made easy by more kindness than I could have hoped for. I do not know when I will bo again called to testify. Perhaps tomorrow. I shall bo ready. "Tho report published today that it is my Intention to tell everything I know, no matter who will bo dragged into shamo and disgrace, is untrue and unwarranted. I stand by tho'statemont mndo yesterday that my purpose is to expose only those who entered know ingly nnd willingly into corruption. I must not discuss tho United Railroads, for I am bound to silence by my prom iso to tho grand jury. But you will recnll I (old you yesterday nftor my act in court thnt there was no necessity, for the offering of bribe money by tho United Railroads; that tho permit de sired by tho corporation would have been granted as a matter of courso by tho supervisors if it had been merely nnd customarily asked for." SOME TIME BEFORE RUEF LANDS IN SAN QUENTIN SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., May 16. Tho understanding is that tho carrying out of the sentence to bo imposed upon Ruef two weeks hence by Judgo Dunne will bo indefinitely suspended in order thnt when the former municipal dic tator and nlly of Schmitz fakes .the stand in court against thoso "higher up" his testimony will not bo that of a convict. Burns is nuthority for the statement that it is the purpose of 'the prosecution to send Ruef eventually to San Quentin, but tho trial of tho cor poration officials who havo been indict ed and of others who hnvo not boon formally charged will, it is thought, tnko so long thnt Rucf's incarceration in tho penitentiary will bo delayed at least n year. No move has been mnde for his admittance to bail. It is said that ho himsolf prefers to remain in tho custody of Elisor Biggy for tho present at least. Schmitz "Not at Homo." Mayor Schmitz both yesterday nnd today denied himself to newspaper men. 'I havo nothing to say; no statement of nny kind to make," was tho mes sago ho sent out. According to Burns, "Rucf will tell everything ho knows," despite his own declaration that ho will not expose or testify against ''thoso who were drag ged into corruption by force of over whelming circumstances against their will." Ruof claims that Schmitz "knew all about tho supervisors' dirty deals." Ruef declares that ho lost' money In politics more money than ho made. It is understood that Ruof will bo re called by the grand jury tomorrow. MAY FORCE SCHMITZ TO EESIGN MAYORALTY SAN FRANCISCO, Cnl., May 10. It is rumored tonight that a movement is on foot to bring about a change in the municipal administration by forcing the resignation of Mayor Schmitz and choosing in his stead Frederick W. Dohrmann, a prominent wholesale mer chant, as mayor. The report lacks ofli cial confirmation. ISAAC STEPHENSON IS NEW WISCONSIN SENATOR By Associated Press. MILWAUKEE, Wis., May 16.

OCCUPY ALMOST ENTIRE DAY IN SECURING JURY Defense Will Make a Strong Fight to Save Prisoner from the Gallows First Witness County Physician. After spending almost the entire day In the examination of jurors twelve men were finally-secured late yesterday afternoon to try Arthur Carkcet, the young miner charged with the murder of George Welch, a fellow workman at the Calumet & Globe Development com pany camp on Lower Pinto Creek on the afternoon of April 2 last. Owing to the nature of the alleged crime, the seeming mystery involved and tho pre emption that the evidence now in the hands of the prosecution will be largely or wholly circumstantial, the qnestions asked in the examination of jurors took a wide range. Come of those examined expressed themselves as opposed to the death penalty for a conviction on cir cumstantial evidence, which disqualified them immediately, and a number of others were excused for unsatisfactory answers to the question of the defense whether they would compel the prosecu tion to furnish and prove 'every link in the chain of circumstantial evidence against the defendant Will Be-Hard Straggle From present indications the case will be a hard-fought one on both" sides and it will probably take up much more time than any trial held so fax this term of court. The defense is in charge of Attorneys" F. C. Jacobs and Thomas E. Flannigan, with District At torney Stoneman and his assistant, L, L. Henry, conducting the prosecution. Immediately upon the selection of the jury, all of the witnesses who had been summoned were sworn and excluded from the room except when on tho stand. Clinton-Rapier, who was arrest ed with Carkect shortly after the crime was committed and subsequently re leased upon proving a- perfect alibi, was the first witness called by the prosecution, but he was asked only a few questions to establish the last time that Welch was seen alive. There was no cross examination. Dr. J. L. Wales, county physician, who made the autopsy upon the body of Welch which led to the discovery that two shots had entered his head instead of one, as had been supposed, A-as next called by the territory'- Here U was that the defense showed that it intended to contest every step taken by the prosecution to place the crime on Carkeet's hands. The defense showed Its Intention to impeach the tes timony of the county physician because of his comparatively short time in prac tice. The doctor was asked by Mr. Stoneman to describe what he had dis covered during the autopsy. He told of removing the upper portion of the ikull, the finding of the two bullett and the fractures caused by both. Claim Not an Expect A conflict resulted when tho district attorney asked the witness the probable result of cither wound, the defense claiming that as the witness had not qualified as an expert, he could not answer properly. After some argument tho witness was allowed to answer and he stated that cither wound would have caused instant unconsciousness and that ono would have caused death in a very short time. He also stated that thero was no signs of burns or powder mark where the shot that entered the brain had been fired. Dr. Wales was still un der direct examination when adjourn ment was taken for the day and it is very probablo that he will be on the stand all morning. The following are the members of tho jury in the Carkeet case: G. W. Rod gers, Jerry Enright, W. F. Harte, B. F. Reynolds, A. J. Bennett, E. W. Booker, John N. Barry, E.
