In the Courtroom.
1T is BROTHER AGAINST BROTHER.

The Attempt 60 Bring Miss Ging's Murder
ers to Justice Brings Out n Peculiar State
of Affairs That Existed In the Hayward
Family--The Mother Listener.
MINNEAPoL1s Feb 13.-In the trial OF
Harry Hayward for the murder OF Miss
Cling the state has presented all its strong
testimony and expects to be completely
through today This afternoon the defense
will present its side and then for the first
time the public will know just which one
Of the lines OF defense has been decided
upon.
The state has fulfilled the promise made
by Mr. Hall In the opening and has proved
on the stand all that is outlined to the
jury. 1t is wonderful as we'll as an aw-
full tale. 1t reads more improbable than
any Of tho dramatic writings Of the most
sensational French noyellsts. IL is almost
past belief Brother against brother, in
decd, has it been for years in that family,
and now perchanoe it Is a life for life
Sitting there stolidly, unmoved, the
mother Of those two sons heard the attor-
ney for tho prisoners opening accusation
present tho foundation for laying the
crime at the door Of her frstborn. In
that crowd. not too finely strung, not too
tenderly constituted, there was a tremor
Of horror A crowd which had laughed
gleefully at a proposition to tear wom-
an s head off with an elevator was trans
figured with disgust at the proposition OF
sacrificing one son on the altar Of family
preference.
The cross examination OF Adry Hay.
ward brought out fearful condition of
affairs In the Hayward family in their
domestic relations. Adry is evidently in
dignant at the course being pursued by
the defense. He answers all questions
with cynical smile and an air Of gratin-
cation. The brothers are apparently pos
sessed OF violent hatred for each other
Of long standing. Rhe scene In court Mon
day between the mother and her two sons
had great effect on Adry and had made
his night sleepless. His eyes were dull
and heavy.
Family Row Aired.
Erwin began his questioning roughly
and asked Adry about the trouble there
was between him and his father and Harry.
Wore you not crazy on Oct. 7s' he
asked.
well, as TO that I" replied Adry. TIN
not in position to answer, and he laugh
ed as the court ruled the question out
With regard TO the charge that he had
embezzled money from his father, Adry
admitted that he had been charged with
doing 80 by both Harry and his father. but
he had charged at the time that the mon
ey had been stolen from his fiat by Harry
for the purpose Of fomenting trouble On
Oct he had been requested by his moth
ar to 20 TO her apartments and talk the
matter over The interview was a stormy
one Harry Hayward had continually
said
Why don't you give father back the
money!"
Adry claimed that the books wero
straight ana that Harry had the missing
money. Mrs Hayward was inoensed at
her elder SON, and he turned to her with
the retort Mother, II you think I'm dis
honest. why did you raise such litter OF
pups" Then came threats OF Harry that
II Adry did not go out at once no would
knife him. Later Harry told the witness
that his father was carrying revolver
and would shoot him on sight.
That was all that ever made trouble
between my mother and myself, " said
Adry.
Don't shake your head mother, he
added, looking straight at Mrs. Hayward
who sat beside Harry ITS all true and
you know it. Pm telling the truth. =
Tell IL! Tell it all r. cried the mother
Leave nothing out.
Life Insurance Agents Testify.
During Tuesday afternoon several life
insurance agents testified to conversations
which Harry Hayward had with them in
regard 70 the issuance Of policies When
Gilbert told how he had met Harry in q
iewelry store had asked Harry why he did
not let him write policy spoken Of soma
time before Harry had told him that he
did not want any insurance, and then told
him that he was about to have policy
assigned TO him
Following up the talk Harry asked him
II companies paid in cases OF murder He
wanted TO know il a company would pay
| n a person was burned in a building and
| the remains were so chnrred that they
could not be recognized. The agent in.
formed him that as a rule, they would re-
/ quire identification, although there had
been cases OF hotel fires whore tho compa
nies had paid when the persons were
known to be in the building. This closed
the testimony for the day, which wa,
4 practically all the important testimony fol
the state, and paints the history OF one d
the blaokest crimes, II the state S story ii
not broken by the defense, in the historJ
Of the world.
