The last part of the interview went directly to the posltiou of Orchard In the pending rase and was directly answered. It was: Was force or duress of any klud used on you by Captain Ale Par land or any one else In securing your alleged confession or statement, and have any promises of any kind been made to you In that connection?" I have never admitted and dont admit now that I have ever made a said Orchard.

Orchard said he had been down the St. Lawrence and had been about Wisconsin and other middle states. Almost with pride he asked hia Interviewers what they thought about the great west. He waa curious to know about tbe Thaw trial, and if Delmas, of the west, had held bis own against Jerome, of the east. He talked In a general way about theformatlon of the Haywood Jury. He asked to be excused from telling where he had been bom and what hla church might be. As the Interview closed and the guard came eo escort Orchard from the room in whieh the interview genthe latter said, Good-bytlemen, I am very glad to have seen you. I wish you all good health and I hope to see you again. Aa a precautionary measure, the actual place in the penitentiary where Orchard la confined la kept secret and the subject la one that tbe wsrdeij and the guards decline to discuss. Orchard's custodian today was Guard Robbins, a veteran from the state of Maine, who came here years ago. He used to help General O. O. Howard fight Indiana and for years waa constantly In service with him. Over the main entrance to the prison la the startling and mysterious sign In hugo letters, "Admission 25 Cents, an explanation of the sign costs the amount stated and the money goes to the prison library.

San Francisco, May 18. today made the following statement to the Associated lYesa; I am informed that many person, are censuring Mr. Ach and Mr. 8hortrldge for their action In retiring from my rase yeslerday. I wish to say that I expressly approve their course and from their standpoint they could not. consistently have taken any other. I am grateful to both of these gentlemen for their valuable services and 1 appreciate and value their continuing friendship, the warmth of which haa been In no manner affected by tbe action of yesterday. "They took the position that Inasmuch as I had Informed them that I waa not guilty of the charge and Intended so to state to the court, they could not, as my attorneys, tolerate a plea of guilty, which had no basis and waa against facta. It la tbe sentiment of Mr. Ruef that no more toe at advocates or friend and no morn able and faithful men ever conducted an Important case tn thla city. Difficulties Increasing in Completing the During the one session of the Haywood trial held today, eleven talesmen were examined before a satisfactory Juror was secured to replace William Van Ora-dalthe grocer at No. 3, who was examined jester. lay afternoon on a peremptory challenge from the state. Aa court adjourned today the defense exercised Its first challenge by relieving Alisa Pride, a fanner at No. 5. Mr. Pride had testified during his ex-- a saltation that he hag Invited to dinner the deputy who Served him with a Jury summon a. He and the deputy diacnared the raae for some time, their talk hinging particularly upon Harry Orchard, who la to be tbe principal witness for the state. A talesman waa called In to replace Pride, but hia examination waa deferred until tomorrow. Aa the work of jury selection progresses, the difficulties In the way of completing the panel seem ever to be increasing. Today one after another of the talesmen were excused because of the strong opinions they entertain- - i ed ss to the guilt or innocence of tbe man accused of conspiracy In concoction with the death of former Governor Steunenberg. One man called for service, but dismissed by the court because he was prejudiced against the state because of various acts attributed to Uie prosecution during the past year. Each ride still haa nine peremptory challenges to exercise, anj memoem of there remain the special venire to draw from. The jyry panel as It stands tonight Is as follows: A. L. Ewing, carpenter; Joel Matthews, farmer; Samuel D. Gilman, farmer; Walter Shaw, farmer: Frank E. Madden, who as yet haa not been examined as to bis qualifications; Wm. L. McGuflln, coal dealer; George H. Mclntire, farmer; W. N, Radge, farmer; Orrie Cole, raining broker; W. W. Blshv, real estate dealer; A. P. Burns, retired business man; Samuel F. Russell, fanner.
