Minneapolis, Jan. 24-The immense
attendance at the Hayward trial pro-
cecdiugs to-day indicated plainly an
intense public interest In this case.
The sensational incidents Of the day
consisted In an effort by q pretty but
too susc. ible damsel to shower floral
fav0.s on :hc accused. and In tho ar
raignment OF certain newspapers by
Erwin. The examination went on all
day-an incesssnt routine Of chai-
longing and releasing Jurors The
three mon who had been selected up
to the present writing. Messrs. Newell,
Webb and Philbrich, are kept under q
close watch by Deputy Johnson. i
Minneapolis. Jan. 25. - Up to $50
three additional jurors had been Sc
cured In the Hayward case. They
were John Smith, of 1887 East Frank
lin avenue. the tenth man called dur
ing the day; II. b. Timberlake, the In
surance man, who was the twenty.
third man examined, and Charles Hut
OF Robbinsdale. The personnel Of the
jury up to date is an unusually good
one, and the jurors selected seem
especially fair and impartial men.
Twenty-Five men ere examined.
Adry Hayward made a statement
last night to the attorneys for the de-
Tense in the case against Harry Hay
ward that, metaphorically speaking,
knocked these gentlemen all In a heap.
Late yesterday afternoon Erwin pre-
sented an order Of the court on Coun-
ty Attorney Nye to produce Adry
Hayward at his request. Adry was
brought over from st. Paul during the
afternoon and held in readiness fos
an interview with Messrs. Erwin and
Smith until court adjourned. Mr.. Err
win Is, Of course, very close mouthsd
as to the impression made upon him
by Adry's statement. Both attorneys
for the state are satisfied that they
have strengthened the states case
by submitting without protest to the
interview dc handed on behalf Of the
defense. Adry's story was the same
essentially as that told the authorities,
but in detail 1t was more complete. .
Minneapolis, Jan. 26.-There were
several interesting Incidents prior TO
the opening OF the Hayward case this
morning. Judge Smith took exception
to the statement In the morning pa
pers that he had issued an order for
Adry Hayward's appearance before
the attorneys for the defense. Judge
Smith pointed out that no such order
was necessary, and he objected to the
statement that such had been issued.
The crowd this morning was fully as
large as on any previous day. Prob
ably about fifty women We're present
IN the court room. Three Jurors were
accepted, making eight the total num-
Der selected. The new men are
John Kimball. n farmer from Cham
plin: Neil Mcneil, living at Dayton,
and also { farmer; and Z. r. Dickey.
a millwright and electrician, living In
the city.
Minneapolis, Jan 81. - Nine jurors
have hus far been secured in the Cling
murder case.
Minneapolis, Jan. 29-Nine lnen have
proved acceptable for jurors in the
Hayward case as the result Of five ana
one-half days work. They are Lind
say Webb, G. s. Philbrick. John Smith,
j. RI. Timberlake, John kimball, Neil
Mcneil. B. F. Dickey, Charles Pribble
and John Denney, and in the opinion
Of the attorneys they are exceptionally
good men. How long 1t will take To
secure the balance OF the jury Is a
matter for speculation. The defense
has eight peremptories left and the
state three.
