Boise, Idaho, May 10.—Moyer, Hay wood and Pettlbone are today analyz Ing the list of state’s witnesses pre sented In court yesterday by Prosecu tor Hawley. The accused men and their attorneys say there are no sur prises in the list; It Is, they say, Just a roll call of men adverse to the Western Federation of Miners. Mins Owners 8ubpenaed. Former Governor Peabody and for mer Adjutant General Sherman Bell, of Colorado; Bulkley Wells and Floyd Thompson, together with halt a dozen members of the Colorado Mine Owners' Association are In the state list of wit nesses. Within forty-eight hours fourteen ad ditional guards have been appointed to the prison where Orchard Is confined, and peremptory orders have been given that no one but the warden shall leave the place. Orchard Once Mins Owner, Among the ex-members of the Fed eral convention who have been aub- penaed by the prosecution Is Ed Boyce, first president of the miners' organisa tion. Harry Orchard was once Boyce’s equal partner In the Hercules mine, one of the richest mines In America. Or chard sold his Interest for $500, and that Interest today Is worth $4,000,000. Governor Steunenberg drove Orchard from the state, and that compelled him to sacrifice his share In the mine. Boyce held on to his share and today Is worth mlUlons. Resulted In Murder. Haywood'u defenders claim that Or chard's resentment toward Governor Steunenberg drove him to murder, and this will be one of the contentions of the Haywood trial. Governor Gooding has given orders that no newspaper photographers shall take pictures of Orchard. Detective McPartland, who keeps constant sur veillance on the assassin of Steunen berg, Is almost afraid to admit that Orchard Is at the penitentiary, so fear ful is he that someone will get over tho walls and talk with tho Informer. The trial of Haywood adjourned yes. terday afternoon shortly after 6 o’clock until Monday morning, because the Jury panel had been exhausted. A feature of the examination was that all of the talesmen questioned swore they had not been Influenced by the letter of President Roosevelt, the speches of other olllclals of the national or state governments, and a majority said they were Republicans, PA CKA GE LEFT ON DOORS TEP NOT AN INFERNAL MACHINE, BUT JUST SWEET GIRL BABY ATLANTA ELKS WANT CONVENTION .

A story of a young mother’s break' Ing heart and her effort to hide her Identity was told to C. Robert Jones and his wife shortly before midnight Thursday, when a basket containing a tiny girl baby was left on the door step of their home at 65 Bradloy ave nue. There waa a knock at the Jones' door, a man's voice saying there was a package for Mr. Jones, the rush of feet and the rattle of cab wheels and then a lone baby’s pitiful wall. Pinned to the clothes placed In the basket, was a note and every word of It told of wrenches at a mother's heartstrings. At 5 minutes to 12, Mr. Jones, who Is a well known street car motorman, was awakened by a knock at his door, and when ho asked what was wanted, a man's voice answered, sayTog there was a package for him. Then Mr. Jones heard some ono run nlng through his front yard, and he heard the crack of a whip and the sound of a retreating carriage. Inves tigation showed there was a basket on his porch, and, at first, he hesitated to pick tt up, thinking It was an Infernal machine. But a pitiful little wall," said Mr. Jones, “soon told me that I had noth ing to fear.” No Children In House. Mr. and Mrs. Jones have been mar ried over ten years, and have no chil dren of thtlr own. Many a time Mrs. Jones has expressed the wl$h for a girl baby, and this fact evidently was known to the mother of the little waif. Here le the pathetic little note the mother wrote In pencil. In an excellent hand: "Dear Mr. and Mrs. Jones: I bring my precious little one to you and I hope you will take her and ralso her as your own, as she should be. She Is of the best blood—blood that no one can be ashamed of. Cherish her as your own and she will always love and obey you. As you have .no children of your own, I give you my precious darling, os I know you both to be kind and gener ous-hearted. 1 know you wtn always love her and would not part with her for anything. Take her, for her sake, not mlne/and hide the shamo of a poor, unfortunate girl. Don't Judge me too harshly bocauso I-wanted you to have my baby to be your own. Her name Is Ruby Jeannette.” The Little Layette, With the baby were some clothes, medicine arid a bottle filled with warm milk. Tho clothes looked, as If they had been made by an Inexperienced hand and in a hurry. The' girl is about a month old and appears to bo healthy. ’ although Mrs, Jones thinks she has been neglected. ■While Mrs. Jones Is not.strongly op posed to keeping the baby, Mr. Jones thinks It Is his duty to allow tho au thorities to take charge of tho waif, and ho has communicated with Chief Turner,, of the county police. As he lives Just outside of tho city. Probation nfilccr Oloer can not tnko charge of the matter,-but he will consult with Chief Turner. “My heart-goes out to this little waif,” said Mr. Jones, "and my wife will tenderly care for her until wo find a home for her. Who tho mother Is I haven't the least Idea, but-It Ih some one who knows about my wlfo and my self.” - • > ■ All day hundreds of people In tho neighborhood of the Jones homo.called to see the little waif, and she is re ceiving every attention. .
