mayor, but he did not go to the
Syndicate, but went up to Hainert's
drug store The state will endeavo-'
to show that Hayward visited Miss
Cling at her shop that afternoon,
which will tend to strengthen the
evidence of Mrs. Hazleton.
Then the account of his movements
on the evening of the murder was
gone into, and Mr.. Nye drew from him
the exact location of the residence of
the young lady on Harmon place on
whom he was going to call when he
started out, and tried to make him be-
lieve that he might have gone to the
junction of Huron and Harmon streets.
Here, again, a part of the rebuttal was
indicated in that it was limited that
Harry ran up Hennepin from near the
boulevard, and attracted the attention
of a street car conductor, who had his
car slack up, whereupon Harry also
slowed in pace. Harry denied, how
ever, that he had ever been in that part
of the avenue under those circum-
stances, and repeated his story of
Thursday as to his whereabouts on
the night in question. The time given
by MT. wye III his QueSllOuS, ~, dtSO
indicates that the state is coming to
the figures of NJ. D. Wilson, at whom
it has scoffed previously. The theory
now is that Harry ran and walked
rapidly back to the Ozark, leaving Miss
Cling on the boulevard. Then he sent
Blixt out ahead of him, went down
and saw Mrs. BliXt and visited Miss
ireland's room for a very short time,
then, returning to the boulevard,
near Blixt, who stood at the junction
of Kenwood and Hennepin while Harry
cut across the foot path. Hayward
then returned to the Ozark for his in
terview with Adry.
In the matter of time this theory is
reconcilable with all the testimony,
save that of himself and parents. 1t is
necessary to have him leave the dining
room seven or eight minutes before
the time at which he says he did, but
not at a time any earlier than that
fixed by Miss Vedder and other trust
worthy witnesses. Time enough for
him to meet Miss Cling at the corner
of Hawthorne park at about 7:l5 on
her way up from the West. Their
drive out to Kenwood would occupy
at the outside five minutes more or
until 7:2G, and with the run to Huron
avenue, which the state hopes to cor
roborate, Harry would be back at the
Ozark at 7:25 to start BliXt out before
the day elevator boy went off watch.
Then he could see Miss Ireland as she
says, about 1880 and likewise Mrs
Blixt, returning to the scene of the
murder at 1877. This allows five min
utes in the Ozark.
Adry says he left his fat at 7:43 A
small difference in watches, however,
would account for this discrepancy
From this on the rest of HayWard's
story may be true, and, in fact, the
actual time would corroborate it, eX-
cept that instead of having in view
the calls he speaks of, the state will
assume that he was really covering a
portion of that space so that if any
one met him on upper Hennepin ave-
nue. that evening he could account for
his presence in that vicinity. A mod
crate walk to Fifteenth street from the
time that he was in Adry's room
would tally correctly with his time at
the block on Fifteenth and Laurel.
When court opened in the morning,
Harry called attention to some mae
curacies in the testimony as pub
lished in the Tribune, and then Mr.
Erwin admonished him to merely state
facts and converse tons in his testi-
mony, as his explanations would prob
ably displeaSe as many people as they
would satisfy. He could not please
everybody whatever he would do.
Then after some Treliminaries, Har-
ry took I'D the story of the inquisition
at the city hall and said he did not
have anything to eat on the day fol-
lowing the murder from breakfast
time until about o'clock Wednesday
morning. He was kept during this
time by the mayor and the assistant
county attorney and several crews of
officers, who took turns at quizzing
him. When they got through the
mayor asked him if he had any OBJ
lection to remaining, and he said he
did. He wanted to go to the West
and said they could leave an officer
with him if they wanted to, but the
mayor said he could sleep on. the
lounge in the chiefs office. Next
morning his honor came to him and
told him that he thought that he was
the victim of circumstances, and re-
leased him from cusody. He also
described the sensational manner in
which he was shown the corpse of his
sweetheart at the morgue.
BliXt's story was denounced as false,
preposterous and untrue. He ad mitted
that he was present after the T rail
was cut, and said that his attention
had been attracted to the basement
by the noise the operation made. AS
ha H.
told him where to shoot to kill, this
might have come from casual con-
versations, which were had occasionally
at night in the basement. The police
man on the beat usually came down
there about II o'clock p. NJ, and they
frequently talked of such subjects.
His conversation with the young doctor
at the Crooked lake camp came from
long interest in matters of physiology,
he having contemplated studying med
icine some.
Then he took up Adry's malice, and
told the jury how he and the two girls
had been held up by a profane high
wayman near Lake Calhoun. and the
next day he found his watch in the
possession of his brother Adry.
HE reproached Adry and asked him
how he could do such things. Adry
replied that he had no conscience and
that he had mania for setting fires
and burning buildings. He had even
talked of killing his father and horri-
fed by this recital, Harry had asked
other parties about their conscience.
Among these were Valley, the hack
man, and Elder Stewart"
II wish you'd ask Stewart about this
conscience business" interpolatd Har-
~, rather savagely.
