They also introduce letters showing Haywood’s role in deceiving Mrs Orchard during 1905 amid Orchard’s testimony.

Darrow Defends Haywood in Steunenberg Case at District Court
Clarence Darrow outlined to the jury the defense of William Haywood in the Steunenberg murder trial. He denied a great conspiracy, argued Orchard lied from a private grudge, and claimed the federation aimed at better wages rather than illicit plots. He alleged Mine Owners and Pinkerton agents conspired to discredit the federation and implicate leaders to end the movement.
