Minneapolis, Feb. 1L-Adry Hay
ward. the brother of the man accused
of numbering Catherine Cling, was in
court this morning before the trial
began.
His wife sat beside him with traces
of recent tears upon her cheeks; but
Adry maintained a mask of smiles and
joviality. When Harry was brought in
by the deputies the eyes of the two
brothers met, but there was no sign OF
recognition, other than a smile of COM
miseratiOn on the face of Harry.
The Insanity Dodge.
DIR. Thadeus T. Hayward, the third
brother was present, and was Visibly
more cordial to Harry than to Adry.
1t is understood that he will go on the
stand and state that his brother Adry
is mentally incapable and, in fact, in
sane. When asked this morning
whether he would be a witness he re-
fused to either affirm or deny it, and
when further questioned as to whether
Adry is insane, he replied: "lf he is
not, he has been very near it several
times in the past

Eustin was resumed at the opening OF
the court, with the story of his inter
view in the Oneida bank with Harry
Hayward about the loans he had made
Miss Cling.
Mr.. Erwin interposed an objection,
that the information had been OBJ
tanned under duress, but this was over
ruled and the mayor repeated the now
familiar story.
The cross-eXamination developed
nothing but objections from the state
which were sustained and exceptions
noted by the defense.
