LONG TRIAL
NEARS CLOSE
STATE CALLS LAST WITNESS IN
HAYWOOD CASE
COURT SAYS END MUST COME
WITHIN WEEK
Scotchman on Stand Enlivens Pro
ceedings by Wit of His Retorts
to Counsel for the
Defense
Ey Associated Press. ¦
BOISE, July 17.-The state of Idaho
rests content with the evidence it has in
troauced nt t c o prove that William D Hay
wood the secretary-treasurer of the
ft^estern Federation of Miners, conspired
%o kill and therefore murdered Frank
Steunenberg, a former governor of the
state. Tomorrow morning Haywood,
through his counsel, will rest his case
with the jury so far as evidence is con
cerned. Possibly some witnesses will be
called in sur-rebuttal, but Haywood s
counsel announce that the case may
close without further evidence.
Judge Fremont Wood has invited argu
ment on his own proposition to eliminate
certain evidence from consideration by
the jury and probably a day will be
taken to present the views of both sides
regarding instructions to the jury. On
Friday morning argument is expected,
and the last stage of the trial will have
commenced.
After having dismissed the jury this
afternoon Judge Wood stated his opin
ion that the evidence introduced by the
defense to prove a conspiracy on the
part of the mine owners, by showing the
deportation of union miners from the
Cripple Creek district of Colorado during
the strikes of 1903 and 1904 was not ma
terial to the issue Involved and should
not be submitted to the jury.
On the other hand, he said, the show-
Ing by the state that Steve Adams was
concerned in the killing of two men in
the Coeur d'Alene district did not appear
to the court to be germaln and should
be eliminated. He announced, however,
that the court would heard argument to
morrow on these points. Further, the
court asked that requests for instruc
tions be submitted.
End Is In Sight
Another announcement by the court
today was a determination to conclude
the case within the next week. Judge
Wood said he would hold three two-hour
sessions daily during the arguments. E.
F. Richardson protested against this, but
he met with no encouragement.
J. H. Hawley will open the argument
for the state and E. F. Richardson for
the defense. Clarence Darrow will close
in behalf of Haywood and the final
argument will come from Senator Borah.
The last day of the state's innings in
the Haywood trial opened with the
V statement by Mr. Richardson that he
\desired the court to order D. C. Scott,
William Dewey and J. C. Routan, wit
nesses who have testified in rebuttal for
the state, to remain within the Jurisdic
tion of the court. This was afterward
explained on the ground that counsel for
thte defense is considering the advisabil
it* of Issuing certain warrants charging
state's witnesses with perjury. Nothing
wasVlone during the day, however, and
late uonlght Clarence Darrow said It was
doubtful if any such steps would bo
. taken.
Rebuttal Is Brief
Only two witnesses were called in re
buttal today, notwithstanding Mr. Haw
ley's statement that eight or ten wit

nesses remained. At the last moment
the prosecution decided not to call trfo
mine owners or Pinkerton detectives, be
lieving this would strengthen their case
beforo the jury. As a result of this de
cision a number of Interesting witnesses
will not be heard.
Bulkley Wells, formerly adjutant gen
eral of Colorado and recently elected a
railroad commissioner in that state, left
for Boise yesterday.
He was In command of the militia
railed out during the labor troubles in
l!) 03 and 1904 and was the man who dug
up the bomb found where Orchard said
he placed it, at Judge Goddard's gate.
Captain James McParland, tho super
intendent of the western division of the
Pinkerton detective agency, who, it was
expected would be one of the most pic
turesque witnesses, was not called. Cap
tßln McParland has had charge of the
case since the arrest of Orchard.
The witnesses examined today were
from Colorado and gave vivid accounts of
the conditions existing around the mines.
O. M. Sackett, employed at the Smuggler-
Union mine at Telluride, a mine owned
chiefly by Poston people and of which
Bulkley Wells is the manager, had an in
timate knowledge of conditions resulting
from the struggle between the members
of the Western Federation of Miners and
the owners of the mines.
Testimony Is Unshaken
No amount of severity on the part of E.
F. Richardson changed Sackett's posltlvo
assertion that the mob of Citizens Alli
ance of the Cripple Creek district took the
law into their own hands as a last resort
and that this organization was made up
of good citizens of the district. He Justi
fied the deportations on the ground that
they were necessary and said they had
been ordered because citizens had reached
the conclusion that men who refused to
work themselves or permit other people to
work should be sent away.
Ho admitted that some of the deported
were Innocent of wrong doing, but stated
positively that they were allowed to come
back when the Injustice was discovered.
Sackett said of his own knowledge and
on information he knew of a number of
murders and outrages committed by the
union miners. He testified point blank
that the calling of the militia and the de
claration of mßTtial law were necessary
to the preservation of life and property.
The last witness of the day was William
Stuart, a Scotchman, red bearded and re
taining the burr of his native language
on his tongue. He was a miner in the
Cripple Creek district during the troubles
and told a story of maltreatment at the
hands of miners who had warned him that
he would have to take the consequences If
he went to work as a "scab."
With native stubbornness Stuart went
to work, however, and today he told of
the consequences. Mr. Richardson dis
missed the witness with the words "that's
all." Stuart wheeled out of the witness
chair and as he stepped down he said
quietly:
"Humph! Well, there's moro if ya want
With this the prosecution rested.

FOR BALLOT RECOUNT
RESULT IN HEARST CONTEST
AGAIN DELAYED
New Law Declared Constitutional but
Higher Court Must Pass on
Candidate's Right to
Invoke It
Hi Associated Press.
NEW YORK, July 17.— Justice Ingra
ham in the appellate division of the su
preme court today announced the court's
decision that the recount law which pro
vides for a recount of the ballots cast
In the last mayoralty election In New
York city is constitutional.
In view of the action yesterday of the
appellate division in Brooklyn in de
ciding that William R. Hearst Is en
titled to a recount under this law, Jus
tice Ingraham stated that It had been
decided to let the case go to the court
of appeals for final action.
This precludes the possibility of a re

KOREAN EMPEROR
MUST ABDICATE
JAPANESE OFFICIALS SEIZE PRE.
TEXT TO COMPLAIN
Cabinet Greatly Excited and No One
Knows What the Next Few
Hours May Bring
Forth
Ey Associated Press.
SEOUL, July 17.— Following a cabinet
meeting yesterday which lasted four
hours, the premier had an audience with
tho emperor in the evening, continuing
for three hours. It has transpired that
the premier made a strongly worded rep
resentation of the gravity of tne situation
caused by his majesty's sending a
deputation to the peace conference at
The Hague. He boldly pointed out the
necessity for the emperor's abdication in
favor of the crown prince, and of his
proceeding to Toklo and apologizing to
the emperor of Japan. The Korean em
peror made no definite reply.
On retiring from the palace, the premier
immediately called another cabinet meet
ing which lasted until 2 o'clock this
morning. The cabinet is determined to
definitely decide on Korea's attitude to
day, or by the time of the arrival of
Viscount Hayashi, Japanese foreign min
ister. It Is believed that the ministers
will insist on the abdication of tne em
peror, at all risk.
The 11-Chlng-Hoi Progsesslve associa
tion, which Is supporting tho present
cabinet, has officially applied to Marquis
Ito to help save Korea from the grave
consequences attending the emperor's
action against Japan.
It is reported that the emperor has
withdrawn 400,000 yen deposited in the
Bank of Shanghai.
It is not considered likely that the
emperor will yield to the demand of his
abdication without a struggle.
Despit the perturbation and excltment
of the court and cabinet, the populace
generally Is calm. Even tne anti-Japanese
association has issued a manifesto urging
the necessity of a peaceful, prudent at
titude at this critical stage of the sit
uation. The emperor, in the opinion of
close observers, has alienated popular
affection.
Custom Outlines Method
Ey Associated Press.
TOKIO, July 17.— Although Korea is un
der an absolute monarchy, the demo
cratic custom has existed since olden days
pear before their ruler. One of them, act
throne of a sovereign whose conduct en
dangers the national welfare. When such
an occasion arises the usage prevails
that all the cabinet ministers shall ap
pear before their ruler. One of them, acting
as spokesman, humbly states the advisa
bility of the emperor's retirement in fa
vor of a rightful successor. When this
state Is reached the emperor is morally
bound to abdicate.
London Expects It
Ej" Associated Press
LONDON. July 17.— The abdication of
the emperor of Korea would cause no sur
prise here. Matters have been drifting In
that direction ever since the Japanese oc
cupation of that country and the Japanese
government evidently regards the dis
patch of a Korean delegation as affording
her the long sought pretext for putting
an end to the present anomalous condi
tion of affairs in Korea. The mission of
Viscount Hayashi, the Japanese foreign
minister, who left Tokio Monday for
Seoul, seems to point to a decision on the
part of the Japanese to secure tho depo
sition of the emperor and assume the en
tire control of the country.
Sends for Marquis Ito
TOKIO, July 17.— The emperor of Korea
has sent for Marquis Ito and It Is likely
that he will receive the marquis In au
dience this afternoon.
It Is believed that a final decision on
the request for the emperor's abdication
will be arrived at this evening, when the
ministers appear In a body before his
majesty.
The report from Seoul that the emperor
attempted to seek refuge in a certain
consulate is officially discredited, but It
Is thought that evidently intriguers are
at work on a plan to remove the empe
ror from the palace.
A rumor that the emperor has private
ly ordered the palace guards, 100 strong,
to shoot any suspicious persons, Is caus
ing dismay to those not cencerned in tho
plot.
Fort Engaged in Mimic Warfare
By Associated Press.
SAN DIEGO, July 17.— The booming of
cannon at Fort Rosecrans this morning
caused some consternation among the
dwellers along the water front. It was
unly an imaginary attack by an imaginary
enegiy, who were supposed to be endeav
oring to run by the fort In the dark. The
San Francisco boys were being put
through maneuvers to acquaint them with
conditions of actual warfare. They are
having a great time today and have been
called unexpectedly to repel Imaginary at
tacks several times To their credit it
should be said the responses have been in
good time and order, and received the
praise of officers and regulars.
SHERIFF ARRIVES TODAY
TO TAKE MAGILL EAST
Man Accused of Murdering His First
Wife Will Have to Stand
Trial in Illinois
Courts
By Associated Press.
SAN DIEGO, July 17.— Sheriff Campbell
of Dewitt county, Illinois, is expected to
arrive tomorrow noon for the purpose of
taking Fred H. Magill and his present
wife, Fay Graham Magill, back to Clinton
to answer the chnrge of murder for the
alleged killing of MaglU's former wife.
If the Illinois officer wishes to continue
his trip without rest his prisoners will be
ready to start back with him on the next
train, leaving at 2 o'clock tomorrow.
Miss Margaret Magill, who has been stay-
Ing at Hotel Robinson since the arrest of
her father and stepmother, will return
with them.
The defense will be that which Is con
tained in the very first words that Magill
uttered when he was arrested:
"My wife committed suicide."
It is a defense that Magill made to the
insinuations and hints current in his home
town, but It Is a defense he did not want
to make In court. Moro than all he did
not want to have to publish extensively
the reasons for her act.
The theory of the defense will be sub
stantiated by letters and by witnesses who
heard Mrs. Magill say repeatedly that she
was going to end her troubles by ending
her life, and by some who heard her say
within forty- eight hours of her death that
she would know peace sooner than any of
them suspected.
One of the letters was found pinned to
her skirt when her body was discovered.
Another was tied up in her handkerchief
and others were In drawers where she is
said to have placed them. If they are for
geries the experts will have ample ma
terial to work on, for there are fourteen
or fifteen pages of them, and they are
written in an undisguised hand.
All of them speak of suicide and most of
them give the reasons. The reasons ex
pressed are Jealousy and constantly re
curring headaches.

SOLDIER IS RELEASED
AFTER YEARS OF DELAY
By Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, July 17. — Released
from a military prison after having
served three years on the charge of
killing two Filipinos, Homer E. Graf
