Adry held the shoe up with out
stretched foot for the jury to look at,
Did you have friend named
Frank, who knew Blixt?'
Erwin then asked Adry If lie had
gone out to KenWood boulevard with
BliXt. II he had gone out with Blixt
ton place beyond Lake Calhoun, and
selected the place where Miss Cling
was to be murdered, and whether he
had not said to BliXt Frank will pro-
tect you if these is any trouble
Adry denied ever knowing Blixt to-
any extent, and had not walked q
block with him. ..
THESE questions on the part of the
defense indicate possible purpose Of
setting up that it was Adry and not
Harry who cOnspired to commit the
murder with Blixt, and the much
talked-of pointed shoe tracks at the
scene Of the murder were made by
Adry. The cross-examination of Adry
was concluded a little later in the
morning. He declared that he had re-
ceived no promise Of protection from
the state, and that he had told the
story upon the advice of Elder Stew
art, who was his friend and his at
torney. He had elected to stay in Jail
most Of the time since the arrest of
Harry upon Stewards advice, and to
save himself annoyance from reporters
and others. He had not been under
arrest, but could come and go freely
If he wanted to. He had no feeling
against his brother, but what he was
daily overcoming. He pitied Harry,
and would do anything to help him
out Of his trouble. This last answer
was stricken out.
John Patton and T.. e. Dodge, insur-
ance agents, testified to conversations
they had had with Harry about in
surance on a lady's life, and how such
policies could be assigned to him as
security for a loan.
No HypnOtlsm.
In the cross-examination of Witness
Pierce he said nothing had ever been
said to him Of any objection on the
part of Miss Cling to taking a $4,000
policy when the loan was $1,000.

]. G. Purple, agent Of the Travel
ers' Insurance company, was called.
He saw Hayward first in Miss Gings
shop on Nov a. The witness ex-
planned to Miss Cling III Haywards
presence how an accident policy he
had just delivered to her differed from
one written the day before. The pay
ment on the second policy was for
$1,000, the indemnity running for 26
weeks only, instead Of 50.
Miss Cling had told Purple that she
was about to borrow $1,000 and want
ed the policy so that it could be paid
in one sum instead of on the annuity
plan as provided by the first policy
Harry had next gone to the Travellers
office, about the middle of the next
week. He had brought there the New
York Life policy, together with the as
signments. The witness was shown
a paper, which he called an assault
clause" which was delivered to the in
sured after being sent to the home Of
flee. The witness had next seen Hay
ward at the corner Of First avenue
south and Fourth street. 1t was the
Wednesday after the murder. Purple
had accosted Hayward, saying: "You
seem to be having pretty hard racket
now. hope you know that you don't
have to answer everything"
Hayward had said: "Well, I have
told them all know" and then asked
Purple: "When can 1 arrange about
the payment of that money!"
Purple had then left with the re-
mark: THAT is matter between you
and our company"
