MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Feb. ga
When court reassembled this morning
County Attorney Nye began the cross
examination of Hayward, but was
unable to shake his story in any es-
sential particular, although he dem
onstrated that the witness memory
as to dates and happenings about the
time of the occurrences he described
was not of the best. He said that he
was born in Macoupin county, Illi-
nois, twenty nine years ago, and had
lived in Minneapolis for twenty-fv
years. He declared that the testi-
mony of both Blixt and Adry Hay
ward was false. The court refused
to let him testify as to the probable
reasons why Adry should have sworn
falsely against him and several sharp
legal clashes occurred
Il was introduced to Miss Cling l
think in January, 1894, by Mr..
Speaker, at the boarding house. 1
met her at first perhaps as often as
once week. After awhile Imet her
as often as twice week, Then you
might say we began to be getting
fairly we'll acquainted. Things went
on in that way during April. We
kept getting better and better ac-
auainted all the time-more and more
intimate. From July and August on
through December we were what you
might call lovers, suppose.
TO the question whether his rela-
tions had been improper Hayward
replied, with more feeling than he
had yet shown: mo sir She was a
true and noble girl to the best of my
belief, both toward me and toward
everybody else"
"Now did you go riding with her?
Describe to the jury your intimacy
with her"
"Well, I've been every place with
her. We've been just like any other
young man and young lady. I've
taken her driving. We've gone to the
theater, to suppers and I've taken her
to church. I've been calling on her
and we have walked together on the
streets and everywhere. Iguess we've
been every place together. I've taken
her riding dozens of times and to the
theater. 1t would be impossible to
mention all the places we have been.
I've gambled and gambled pile. I've
gambled high and lots of it.
acknowledge l tried to keep it from
the public, but did not try to dis
guise it from any young lady or young
man who knew me intimately. Every
body who knew me we'll knew of it
and every young lady who knew me
well knew it too. 1t was no surprise
to any one who knew me we'll"
In answer to further questions,
Hayward said that he had played faro
and roulette in almost every large
city in the United States and many of
the small cities = Minneapolis, St.
Paul, Seattle, Alaska, San Francisco,
San Diego, Los Angeles, Encinito,
Mexico, Colorado Springs, Manitou,
Glenwood Springs, Denver, Pueblo,
Cheyenne, New Orleans, Omaha, Kan.
sas City, Chicago, Duluth, West SUI
perior, Toledo, Cleveland, Syracuse,
New York city, the club houses at
Long Branch, Anthony park and
Gloucester. He had gambled for
about seven years. Questions as
to the game of faro followed, and
then he declared that he had always
aimed to have considerable money
while playing so as to have better
show to win after losing for time.
Catherine Cling knew that he played,
and one evening she and another wo-
man went with him to a gambling
den and played. Then she gave
money to him at various times. He
described the various winnings and
losings he had made for her. While
in Chicago he lost S1,54O.
