as follows: $1,000 from Elder Stewart
on a mortgage, with which he won
81, $50 at the Twin City Athletic club
almost Immediately. Then there was
$500 on other mortgages, and finally
he sold the lot to Stewart, who paid
him 81, 565.
He admitted gambling a great deal,
and had some losses, but not SO heavy
as he heard them reported on the
street afterwards. He had not lost
$500 at the club on Sixth street, but
had lost some during the last fall at
Carney's Pacific house on Seventh
street, st. Paul.
Harry took occasion to call down Mr..
Hall once or twice for making his in
terrogations in the form of positive
statements, to which he expected to
afiix an interrogation point and the
rising infection. His attorneys adj
vised him only to answer direct queS-
tons.
He said concerning his connections
with Stewart in business way that
for the last two years it had been
case of beat each other with them,
and as he had come out little ahead
Stewart didn't like it.
In the afternoon Mr.. Hall said he
couldn't see any sense in Miss Ging's
coming back after she took away the
$1,000. Harry said he couldn't either.
Hall pressed him, and Harry retorted,
breeziIy:
well, if you don't see and don't see
[ don't see how it's going to be SEEN"
The state also indicated that it
would endeavor to prove that Harry
met Miss Cling at Fifth street and First
avenue north Friday, Nov. so, and that
he was in Barge's restaurant with her
Saturday evening, Dec. /, the night she
is supposed to have been out riding
with the mysterious man. He said
that he was not in Barge's restaurant
up stairs at all that night, and if he
was in down stars, it was only a pass
ing visit on his way to the street car
from Nicollet avenue. where the Incl
dent of the oranges occurred. Then
Mr.. Hall went into the hold-up and
Harry told his full story of that affair.
He and Miss Cling and Miss Vedder
were driving through the little road
that runs from Lake of the Isles to
Calhoun at the southwest corner of the
former, and when they were about 15G
feet north of the track some one
stepped to the horses head and stopped
them. At first he thought it was
policeman, as they had been singing
quite loudly, but he soon found that
it was a highwayman that had stopped
them. He did not do anything as the
man had a pistol SMACK dab under
his nose He didn't do anything, nor
would he again under similar circum-
stances. He got out and held the
horses while the robber searched the
girls. They hid their money and rings
with one exception, however while he
was giving the robber an opportunity
to go through him. The next day
when he entered the office he found
Adry with that watch as described the
day before, and then ensued the scene
which Adry had described in his tes-
timony as occurring on Nov. 80.
Then Attorney Smith sprang a coup
on the state by calling to the stand two
young men whom the state had already
subpoenaed, in the hope of establishing
that they were the two mysterious in
dividuals who were noticed on Lake
street the night of the homicide by
Miss Gertrude Brown and Frank
Springstad. But the defense had more
to get from Harold C. Stevens, one of
the young men, who is a son of the
famous eX-mayor's secretary, Ed A..
Stevens. Young Stevens said that he
had seen a top buggy, drawn by
light horse, which was driven. rapidly
down Lake street past him, and the
occupant was a thin-faced man, with
light mustache and beard. This was
about Sis, as near as he could judge.
His companion had looked at his watch
some time before. Going home later
they met the patrol wagon on Henne-
pin avenue, between Twenty-fifth and
Twenty-seventh streets. H. Percy
Wood, Stevens companion, corrobo-
rated Stevens story as to the facts gen
orally, but could not identify the de-
scription of the occupant of the buggy.
He did not pay any attention to him,
especially.
