Minneapolis, Mimi, Feb. 22.-Ner-
vous, contradictory, uncertain, garru-
lous, rambling and explanatory.
These words explain the aspect Of
Harry Hayward ON the stand. When
the attorney began TO lead him into
the details of the circumstances at
tending the tragedy, he went up in
the air." us 4 horSeman would say,
and made a bad impression. At times
his voice would sink away until it
was hardly audible, and he had to be
cautioned to speak SO the jury could
hear him. Hardly person in the vast
crowd believed what he said. AS 4
whole, from the testimony by the wit
ness, he did not make amy points for
himself, and his appearance told
against him.
The most interesting part of the evil
dence was when lie came to that part
which brought him to the day of the
murder. He was more halting, more
uncertain than ever at this point He
led up to it by describing chat scene
of the signing of the $1,000 not in the
Oneida block. and after he was all
through his evidence was a mixture
of the testimony of the elevator boy
and of BliXt. He only impeached
BliXt in saying that it was not pl'ear-
ranged that BliXt should come there
at that time and in his not telling
BliXt to say that he saw many large
bills. Harry swore that the night of
the murder he arrived at the Ozark
flats at 6:45 O'clock Then he told of
doing an incl edible number of things
before 1:22, the time that he came out
from supper and went to his fiat. In
that time he washed in his bath room,
changed his clothes throughout, went
to the basement, went up to see Miss
Ireland. went down StairS again and
had his supper. He left the fiat after
going to see his mother twice. calling
upon Miss Ireland, talking twice with
Mr. and Mrs. BliNt ON the first floor,
going into the basement and fOndl.ng
his dog and washing his hands. Then
he went down HennNpin avenue Il
Short distace, intending to go to the
block, retraccd his steps and went to
the corner of Henncpin and Laurel
avenue. and there he looked ut his
watch and it was thirteen minutes Of
eight, He stated that he went up to
Laurel avenue intending to call upon
a young lady. and then remembered
that he had an engagement with Miss
Bartelson. He looked at his watch TO
see if he had time TO 90 there. and
thought that he would take her to the
theater He followed this by recount
ing the trip to the RarteSpn residence,
and giving the time rs RartclsOn
