Telephone No. 230 KNEW LATTER AS TOM HOGAN Tells in Detall How Orchard Sug- gested Blowing Up Nonunion Board- inghouse and Also Proposed Killing Business Rival of Witness for $100. Boise, Ida., July )—In the Haywood trial here Max Malich, another of the men implicated by the testimony of Harry Orchard, made his appearance as a witness in behalf of William D. Haywood. He directly contradicted all of Orchard’s story relating to him. Malich was the leader of the Austrian smelter workers at Globeville and conducted a saloon and store and hotel there during the strike. Orchard tes- tified that Malich proposed to him that he dynamite a hotel at Globeville filled with nonunion men and offered Bim $100 to blow up the store of Will- famn McDonald, a business rival, and privately informed the prosecution that Malich had burned himself with “Pettibone dope” while preparing to burn his own store and had later burned his store with “Pettibone dope” and that Malich had agreed to help him with an alibi when he killed Detective Lyte Gregory. Malich swore that Orchard had pro- posed destroying the nonunlon. hotel and’ the killing of McDonald and that he had refused to have anything to do with either crime. He also dened all knowledge of “Pettibone dope” or ts use in his store and swore that rchard told him that but for Gov- ernor Steunenberg he would be a rich man and that he would kill him. Malich was called to the stand immediately after the opening of court. Malich is a carpenter and miner. He was a smelterman at Globe- ville, Colo, at the time of the strike in 1003. Malich said he was an Aus- trian, as were most of the men in the Globeville smelters. . Malich said he knew Orchard under the name of Thomas Hogan. He was introduced to him by a Pinkerton de- tective, A. W. Gratlas. Malich said he did not know Gratias was a detec- tive at the time, for he was working secretly and was acting as president of the local Smelter union. The wit- ness sald it was In February, 1905, that he met Orchard, who was then living with Steve Adams and his wife. Malich had become proprietor of a small hotel and bar at this time, Orchard testifled when on the stand that Malich had suggested to him the blowing up of'a hotel where 150 non- union miners were living and had helped him steal 100 pounds of dyna- mite from the Union Pacific powder- house. Malich declared that the tes- timony was all false. He said that Orchard, or Hogan, came to him one day'and sald: Proposed Blowing Up Hotel. “What is the matter with you folks out here; the ‘scabs are getting the best of you? Why don't you blow | that d—n hotel off the earth?” He sald he replied: j “Tom, T wouldn’t stand for it under the clrcumstances.

C. thing like that I'am going to denounce you” 5 3 Malich sald he ¥new nothing about the taking of any powder from the Union Pacific. Malich testified that he next saw Orchard in May, 1906. This time Orchard told him the smelter com- pany’s store was taking all his trade away from him. He offered to “do up” Willlam McDonald, the proprietor of the store, for $100. Malich said he told Orchard;that he had all the trade he wanted and he would not have anybody killed on his account. The next time he saw Orchard was when the man was writing hail insurance. He lent Orchiard $30, which was sent back to him from Rockyford. Asked as to Orchard’s financlal condition the winter he lived with Steve Adams Malich sald he had to let Orchard have money five or six times, being pald back when the latter “made a raise” at gambling. Malich then told of Orchard accom- panying him to a bathhouse, where the latter again suggested “doing up” Billy McDonald, but Malich declared he did not want anything like that flone for him. Orchard, he sald, then got to talking about former Governor Steunenberg and sald that if it had not been for him he would have been a millionaire. Asked if he had ever talked to Orchard with regard to or assisted him in making bombs for Judges Goddard and Gabbert or any one else Malich caused a ripple of laughter by replying: | “I never saw a ‘boom’ in my life.” Malich also testified that two un- successful attempts were made to blow up or burn his place of business while running a store in competition with the mine company’s store. It was finally destroyed by fire June 21, 1905, while he was absent on his ranch in another part of the state. The witness was cross-examined by Senator Borah. He was required to trace his movements from the time of bis arrival in this country in the early eighties down to the present time. McParland’s Brother Testifies. The next witness for the defense aroused unusual interest. He was BEdward L. McParland, a brother of Pinkerton Detective James McPar- land, who has been in charge of secur- ing evidence for the state. The wit- ness sald he was not a member of the Western Federation of Miners but & shoemaker by trade. He was at work in his shoeshop in Victor the day of the riot there fol- lowing the Independence depot ex- plosion. After the shooting started McParland said five men came to his shop and said they wanted him. He was marched between lines of soldiers to the train and taken to Colorado Springs, where he and several hun- dred miners were transferred to the Banta Fe road and taken to within a short distance of the Kansas line. The engineer of the train refused to take the men across the state line. ‘“After we lefs the train three vol- leys were fired over our heads and we were told to never-come back,” said McParland. “We went into the fields for some time, when along came a train which slowed down. The engi- neer asked us if we were the deport- ed men. He then told us to get aboard and he took us into Holly, Colo., where we remained for some time.” . “Did you ever go back to Victor?” “No, sir.” The next_occupant of the witness .chair was Joe Mehliet, a native of Austria and formerly a smelterman, ‘He said he first met Harry Orchard at Globeville in January, 1905, but de- nied that he had ever assisted Orchard or Adams to steal powder from the Union Pacific powderhouse or any- where else. “Did you ever have any conversa- tion with Orchard about blowing up & hotel?” T"“Yes, sir. Orchard came to me one day and asked me if I could tell him how the hotel was situated. I had worked there two years and told him what I knew. He then asked me if I didn’t want to come along and help him blow it up. I told him no; that I wouldn't stick any finger in it, as I never intended to kill anybody.” Mehliet said he never talked with Orchard as to any attempt on Gov- ernor Peabody or anybody else. Meh- Het first met Orchard through Detec- tive Gratias, WILL REMAIN NEUTRAL.

[You May \Need It & SCROFULA sonmm. | Scrofula is not a disease that is acquired, ¥nder ordinary circumstances. g It is a deep-seated family blood taint, handed down from generation to gen- 3 eration, blighting the lives and sapping the vital forces of innocent persons E who have inherited this legacy of disease. Parents who.are blood relations or who have a consumptive tendency, or blood disease of any character, are sure to transmit it to their offspring, and it usually takes the form of Scrofula. Swollen glands, brittle bones, weak eyes, sores and eryptions on the body, Catarrh, and often deformities with hip disease, are tle principal ways in which the trouble is manifested. In some cases the blood ‘is so filled with scrofulous germs and poisons that from birth the sufferer is an object of pity because of suffering and a total lack of health, while in other instances favorable surroundings and prudent living hold the disease in check until later in life, A deep-seated blood disease like Scrofula can only be reached * by the very best constitutional treatment.
