CHICAGO, June 22.— "What do I think of the railroad situation? de manded M. E. Ingalls, former president of the Big Four, repeating the question. "The railroads are looking up. The reason Is that the railroad people have finally got so that they can wake up in the morning and think of President Roosevelt without having nervous dys pesla or stage fright, and that helps a good deal." Mr. Ingalls is spending a few days with his son. George Ingalls, general freight traffic manager of the New York Central lines west of Buffalo. "It was this way," continued Mr. In galls, "for some time the railroad men were afraid the president was going to swallow the railroads or confiscate them. Now they are beginning to find that it Is not quite so bad as this and a more healthy condition is the result. "What do you think of the president's plan for the regulation of the rail ways as outlined In his recent speech at Indianapolis?" "How can we judge of It? He talks both ways. Evidently when he thought of Harriman he let a little vitriol flow out of his pen and when he. forgot him his disposition toward the railroads grew sweet. "So you see you can take the speech both ways If you are a railroad man, but one thing is evident, and that is the railroads have got to obey the law and this will be good for them." "Do you see any hard times headed this way?" he was asked. "Can't say that I do, but there will be a general backing up of business every where. This will not hurt the railroads, however, as they have got more than they can take rare of now." AMPUTATE LEG TO SAVE WOMAN'S LIFE By Associated Press.

BADLY CRIPPLED (Continued from Pajre One.) a meeting of the board this afternoon to discuss the present situation, and until after that time no one has any authority to say what position the board will take. "The strike at San Francisco had been legally authorized by the board last Friday before the companies showed a disposition to accede to any thing. Since making my official report to President Small I have not been able to get In touch with him and have nothing but newspaper reports to go on." FRUIT DEALERS IN EAST SAY STRIKE WILL CAUSE SERIOUS LOSS TO SHIPPERS By Associated Press. CHICAGO, Juno 22.— President Sager of the Chicago board of trade and Sec retary Wren of the Chicago stock ex change declared last night that the San Francisco telegraphers' strike will have little effect upon boards of trade or stock exchanges in Chicago. Fruit dealers asserted that the strike Is likely to have a serious effect upon their business. Shipments of perish able fruits, it is declared, will be seri ously hampered as a result of a lack of telegTaphlc communication with San Francisco and Oakland. At the Western Union and Postal offices ln Chicago all messages for both strike points were accepted subject to delay. NO WALKOUT EXPECTED IN LOS ANGELES; STRIKE IN NORTH IS SATISFACTORY "Business moving slowly. Serious delay east owing to storms and north due to San Francisco teltgraphers' strike," is the report made by Western Union officials last night. "We are experiencing no trouble with operators in any part of the country excepting Oakland and San Francisco. Oakland wires are manned and we are sending to them. We are accepting messages subject to indefinite delay and at senders' risk." This is the way a telegraph official put the case last night. , , No serious apprehension is felt that the strike will reach Loa Angeles. Both company officials and telegraphers are anxious to avoid a spread of the trouble. An official of the telegraphers' or ganization said last night: "We are anticipating no trouble here. The Oakland men seem to be accom plishing all that can be expected. The grievance is there and the men are lighting their own battle most admir ably. President Small is there on the ground and all over the country tele graphers havn confidence in him. I saw a telegram from him this afternoon in which he said there was no signed agreement between Commissioner Nelll and any official of the union and the telegraph company. There was no agreement and no repudiation. Col. dowry's letter was the only document, and in that t\e promised to abolish the sliding scale, a thing he has heretofore steadily asserted has not existed. He also announced that hereafter the 10 per cent increase would apply to all telegraphers. This Is interesting, in asmuch as it has been claimed that the increasa had been given in every in stance. "We are in this affair in the interest of humanity. That eight hour day looks good to us and I guess when the smoke has cleared away we will have it. "Those two carloads of strike break ers from the east consists of Just nine telegraphers. They may be coming to the coast on free transportation just for an outing. "After Mr. Small's arrival in San Francisco a copy of Col. dowry's let ter was wired to him. The letter did not contain any concessions, and he could not see wherein there was any thing to accept. "Commissioner Neil absolutely re fused to take up the San Francisco grievances, stating that on account of the condition of labor affairs In San Francisco he vould have nothing to do with It. "There Is no misunderstanding be tween the members of the union's ex ecutive board. These printed reports are evidently inspired for the purpose of biasing public sentiment and to create the Impression that the men are squabbling among themselves."

CHICAGO, June 22.— Passenger rates on all railroads of the United States will be reduced to 2 cents a mile.

This was the decision reached in Chicago yesterday after a long and heated discussion by the lead ing railroad presidents of all the west ern and transcontinental roads.

Following the meeting of the officials of the roads several admitted that they had been forced to bow to public opin ion and anti-railroad legislation. They said that no further fight would be made on the 2-cent laws already passed and that the roads would accept the Inevitable. TO ASSAIL STORY TOLO BY ORCHARD (Continued from Posre One) writer knew the alias of Harry Orchard, contained the statement that "that" had been sent to "Jack" on December 21, 1905. Orchard testified that Pettl bone, one of Haywood's co-defendants, wrote this in the less harmful act of deceiving Mrs. Orchard. Through Or chard's letters runs the suggestion that the federation officials were keeping Mrs. Orchard in funds, but this, too, rests on Orchard's word. Haywood, Pettibone and Orchard are located together on two or three occa sions In Denver, between the spring and fall of 1905, and Orchard lived at Petti bone's house as a guest during the month of August, 1905. Show Feeling Against Victim Articles from the Miners' Magazine and some testimony as to the Coeur d'Alene strike of 1889 show animus to ward Steunenberg on the part of Hay wood and other leaders of the federa tion. On the general conspiracy set up in allegation by the state the general showing has been as follows: Orchard has been traced through all of the more Important movements con nected with the alleged attempt on 'the life of Fred Bradley at San Francisco by independent witnesses, and his story of the poisoned milk has been carried down to the chemist who analyzed it. It had been Independently shown that while Orchard was at San Francisco Pettibone, using false names, tele graphed money to him twice through the Postal Telegraph company and that a registered letter or package was sent to San Francisco from Pettlbone's Den ver address under one of the names used by Pettibone In sending telegraphic remittances. Other than by Orchard's word it has not been shown that the Bradley explosion was caused by a bomb. The casing of the so-called Peabody bomb has been produced and its history largely proved by outside witnesses from the time it was in Denver until It was dug out of the Ice In the Coeur d'Alene river. Miss Peabody confirmed one detail of the story Orchard told of the attempt to shoot her father, and Orchard's story of his Journey to Can on City to kill former Governor Pea body is given general confirmation by the evidence of William Vaughn, who was Orchard's traveling companion. Orchard went to Canon City ostensibly as an insurance agent, and tha state has produced a letter written to the insurance company for him by Pettl bono. The discovery of the Goddard bomb has been established, but the earlier history of the bomb and all of the plot centering around It rest upon the tes timony of Orchard. Reason for ani mus against Justices Goddard and Gabbert has been shown by witnesses adverse to Moyer and the miners' In terests in Colorado. Orchard's story of the first descent into the Vindicator mine is corrobor ated by the eager, whom Orchard *» countered and attempted to kill.

His story as to the Vindicator outrage Is In part support ed by outside testimony. The circumstances that have claimed general attention are the showing that soon after the Vindicator explosion Orchard Joined Moyer aB a bodyguard and accompanied him on a trip to Southern Colorado, and the fact that Orchard spent the month of August, 1906, as a guest of Pettlbone at the lat ter's home In Denver. Fails to Connect Haywood The chief corroboration of Orchard's testimony has been as to things he did and the time and manner of their doing, and it is contended by the de fense that aside from his testimony there Is not a single piece of inde pendent evidence against Haywood or any fact that Independently connects Haywoo'd with the crime charged or any other crime. Counsel for Haywood will not outline their defense until Monday morning, but tfieir course during. croBS-examlna tlon, particularly when they laid the foundation for their impeachment of Orchard, and the personality of many of the witnesses they have summoned here, make their general course quite clear. It is manifest that they will endeavor to show that Orchard killed Steunenberg to be revenged for the loss of the Hercules mine, and several witnesses will swear that they heard Orchard tell the Hercules taje and vow that he would kill Steunenberg. They will probably show . also that Jack Slmpklns was a prisoner in the "bull pen," where a negro thrust a bayonet into his cheat, circumstances that gave the two common cause against Steunenberg. There will likely be a showing that all of the financial relations of Hay wood and Slmpklns came in the natural and regular course of conducting the business affairs of the federation. In this connection as well as to the grants of money and food to Orchard and his wife and Steve Adams, the books and records of the federation will probably be produced. Orchard's testimony as to the al leged intimacy of himself and the fed eration leaders and his story of tha events at Cripple Creek, extending from the first attempt at the Vindica tor down to the destruotion of the In dependence station, will probably be di rectly controverted by practically all the men named by him. Many of them are now here and they are expected to take the stand and swear that he per jured himself. There will also be a general showing that movements, acts and attitudes of Haywood, Moyer and Pettibone during 1903, 1904 and 1905 were largely at variance and strongly inconsistent with the recital of Or chard. Attack Bradley Story ■ The Bradley story will be subjected to severe attack and in this connection the discrediting testimony of Bradley himself will be used. There exists a strong showing that Bradley's house was blown up by a gas explosion and not by a bomb, and this will be used to all possible advantage. Orchard's story about the letters con nected with the alleged plan to deceive his wife will in all probability be di rectly controverted and generally dis credited. There may be a Bhowing that Orchard did go to Alaska. Marion Moore will be a witness for the defense and it is understood that he will direct ly deny that he carried Orchard's let ter to Alaska. The legal aid extended to Orchard will be explained by a gen eral showing that it has over been the custom of the federation to provide counsel for Its members.
