Haywood-Moyer-Pettibone Case, Attorney Edmund F Richardson of Denver, Boise, May 11, 1907, w: text.png

BOISE, Idaho, Feb. 21.-Charles E. [H.] Moyer, William D. Haywood and G. A. Pettibone, leaders of the Western Federation of Miners, today were taken to Caldwell, where they were arraigned before the Probate Judge on information charging them with the murder of former Governor Frank Steunenberg. Each of the prisoners stood mute, refusing to plead.

Attorney E. F. Richardson, representing the prisoners demanded an immediate preliminary hearing, but it finally was agreed that the case should go over until next Tuesday, when a further continuance may be ordered.

Attorney Richardson maintained that the information filed against the prisoners was not sufficient, as the affidavit charged the commission of a crime in Caldwell, whereas Moyer had not been in the State of Idaho since October last, and the two other prisoners had not been in Idaho in years. There was in the information no word of conspiracy, he said. The court overruled his objection to the information and his motion for the dismissal of the prisoners. They were committed without bail.

The three prisoners were brought back to Boise this afternoon and were again taken to the State Penitentiary, where they will be kept in close confinement. They will be permitted to read books.
