HAYWARD SKELETONS.


Ths Family Life Evidently Model Of In,
felicity--Adry's Testimony.
MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. l3.--The cross-ex-
animation OF Adry Hayward IN the
murder trial brought out fearful con-
dition of affairs in the Hayward family,
in their domestic relations. Adry is
evidently indignant at the course being
pursued by the defense. He answered
all questions with cynic smile and an
air of qualification. The brothers are
evidently possessed of violent hatred
for each other, of long standing. The
scene in court between the mother and
her two boys had evidently had great
effect ON Adry and had male his night
sleepless. His eyes were duh and heavy.
Not In Position .to Answer.
Erwin began his questioning roughly,
and asked Adry about the trouble there
was between him and his father and
Harry.
Were you not crazy on Oct. 7?'' he
asked.
well, as to that" replied Adry. 'I'm
not in position to answer = and he
laughed as the court ruled the question
ont.
With regard to the echarge that he had
embezzled money from his father, Adry
admitted that he had been charged with
doing so by both Harry and his father,
but he had charged at the time that the
money had been stolen from his fiat by
Harry for the purpose OF fomenting
trouble. On Oct he had been request
ed by his mother to go to her apartments
and talk the matter over. The inter
view was stormy one. Harry had con-
tinually said: Why don't you give
father back the money! Adry claimed
that the books were straight, and that
Harry had the missing money. Mrs.
Hayward became incensed at her elder
son, and he turned to her with the re-
tort: Mother, II you think I'm dis
honest. why did yon raise
such litter Of Pups9-,
Then came threats from Harry that il
= Adry did not 60 out Mt once he would
knife him. Later Harry had told the
witDess that his father was carrying q
revolver and would shoot him on sight.
THAT was all that made the trouble
between my mother and myself, said
Adry.
Don't shake your head. mother, = he
added, looking straight at Mrs. Hay
ward, who sat beside Harry, tits all
true and you know it. I'm telling the
truth"
Tell ii all, tell it ALL" cried the
mother, leave ont nothing.
Some Questions Not Allowed.
Mr. Erwin asked number of ques-
lions which were ruled out by the court
Among these were the following.
did you tell your father and mother
that you were being shadowed?''
did yon not tell them that folks were
peering into the windows constantly,
and the next one who did it would get
the contents Of your reyolverg''
did you tell yonr father that Won
met man on yonr fishing trip who told
you that you had had trouble and would
have more, and that you were SO inn
pressed with it that yon had yonr life
insured?,
did yon often threaten to rob street
cars?''
One Impeaching Question.
One impeaching question which was
allowed, was this:

The Press., 1895-07-25

In an editorial upon the Connecticut legislature of 1895, Isaac Bromley of The New York Tribune says some pleasant things about Speaker Fessenden and some true things about Senator Platt
 stIt seems to be agreed on all hands that Speaker Samuel Fessenden discharg- ed the functions of presiding officer with unusual ability and to the entire satisfac- tion of all parties. Sc much so that the closing hours of the session were made vocal with his praises; political friends and opponents vielng with each other in their cOmmendation of his impartiality, his geniality and his other excellent quail tiles. He is to he congratulated upon his success in the discharge of the duties of so trying position. It is not impossible. however, that his qualification may be somewhat alloyed by the suggestion which has appeared in some quarters that he is nourishing an ambition for a much higher position, for which his present popularity will be used as stepping stone. Doubt less he would like to be United States, senator. That is an ambition of which no man need be ashamed. But it can hardly be true that Mir. Fessendon would set himself up, or permit his friens to set him up, as a candidate for the office now so worthily and usefully filled by Orville H. Platt so long as that gentleman con- sents to serve his state in that place. Senator Platt is one of the most modest unaggressive of men, but we only repeat what all his colleagues in the senate will confirm, and what the great majority of Connecticut republicans know to be the fact, when we say that Connecticut has never been more faithfully and ably rep resented in that body than during his term of service. No senator has greater influence as a wise and prudent counsel Tor, nor is there one in whose steadfast integrity and uprightness greater influence is reposed by all parties. MT. Fessenden is too wise politician to permit his own honorable ambition to put him in posi- tion of rivalry with Senator Platt.
 "The republicans of Connecticut have, upon the whole, come through the perils of great victory without having suffered the serious damage to which it exposed them. But they have to remember that they are not by any means strong enough to indulge with safety in internal dissen- tions or factiOnal disputes" :"
