ANOTHER STATEMENT.
The Theory of Counterfeit Money
Jumped On.

The Theory of Counterfeit Money
| Jumped On.
Let me call your attention to anoth-
er remarkable additional statement,
now, lest l forget it hereafter. Recol-
! lect in the first statement that Blixt
| made, he spoke about Harry having
8 come to him in the morning of Monday,
| the day this woman was murdered,
| and brought him a gold watch with a
| deer on 1t or a horse, he said, just as
II 1t had never been in his possession,
but he had told it was a deer or a
horse. he did not know which-in fact,
1t was deer and horse both; brought
| to him gold watch with a deer and
horse on it, box of cartridges and
roll of money, and asked him to hide
1t. Now. the object of that was per-
fectly plain. This prosecution started
! with the theory originally-this grand
| jury started out originally with the the
DRY that Harry Hayward had in fact
made this woman a loan, but that the
| money he had used was, in fact all
| counterfeit money.
| That was the theory of some of the
detectives. Blixt jumped onto that
theory in his anxiety to invent some
| thing about Harry, and puts it onto
: him and he says, He brought me a
roll of money" The idea was it was
to be counterfeit money And he saws.
1t was rolled up and tied around with
a string" The idea of that was he
would not know it was counterfeit
! money. Recollect how cruelty this
Internal scoundrel put into the inno-
cent and dead lips of Katy Cling, that
J she was
| GOING OUT AFTER GREEN GOODS
This ruthless scoundrel, with fell
hand worse than beast, tries to make
OF that lovely girl a counterfeiter!
These things cannot escape. So he
puts upon Harry the suspicion of coun-
I terfeiting. He testifies he brought him
roll of money, a box of cartridges
and gold watch with a deer or horse
on IT, oh. if the grand jury could only
| nave this case now or ever follow it
| out.
| The watch he lied about The watch
was in Eustis Bros. store He says he
gave that to Harry in the afternoon
MI Eustis, of Eustis Bros store, came
mere and testified to what? That Harry
! Drought that watch into Eustis Bros >
store, to be repaired and cleaned, on
the morning of the Sd. Now, what was
Harry doing with the watch? Harry
was using his watch open and care
lessly, with no sense of discovery,
fearlessly and honorably. What was
Blixt doing? This is the strongest
marx OF collision with Adryl Blixt,
opeolent to the agreement between
hlmself and Adry to put this on Harry.
| undertakes to make poor Blixt the
thn
that Harry is trying to conceal the
| Watch that was taken in the hold-uD
commencing even there to barricade
the way to inquiry as to his own hold
up and robbery of Miss Cling. Right
there-not by a man who knew of the
! hold-up, for Blixt knew nothing about
it, but by man who was the dune
and tool of the man who did the hold
up, and who is now trying to put the
concealment of that watch in as cor
roboratfve evidence that Harry engi-
neered the hold-up.
THE CARTRIDGES.
| Why the box of cartridges? Because
Biixt had been told, or it had been col
luded and designed between him and
| Adry, the whole story of the long car
| tridges, with which the woman was
| to be shot, and the short ones which
were to be placed in the revolver, for
| Adry knew that Harry had no car
| tr1dgeS but the box of short ones.
| The officers had gone down and had
| searched Harrys trunk, and had taken
everything, and the box of short car
tridges were there, the ordinary car
tridges.
Now, to explain the fact that in Har-
| rvs revolver would be found a. car
| fridge which naturally would be there,
this whole story was invented about
| the change of the cartridges in the re-
volver, SO that when they found Har-
rvs revolver there, innocently loaded
with a short cartridge, Blixt, this will
] ing tool and perjurer would, by rela-
| ton with the story of the long car
| fridge, do away with the natural pre-
sumption that arises from finding the
revolver of Harry with his ordinary
| short cartridges. And so in the be-
ginning. at the first stages, Blixt, I'M
| doubtedly by collision with Adry, says:
| Harry brought to me in the afternoon
| in the morning, and took away in the
| afternoon, a roll of money, a box of
| cartridges and a watch, with a deer or
| horse on it,
| Well, there never was any such box
| of cartridges. The watch with a deer
| or horse on it was even then, at that
| moment, in Eustis Bros repair shop,
hanging in the open window If it
| hung one way, the horse showed; if it
hung the other way, the deer showed,
| and there it hung. Caught, impaled,
| transfiXed here on the watch, what be-
| comes of Blixt's story in relation to
! the roll of money and the box Of cart
| ridges? But, does he stop there, does
he swear to the same thing. when he
| comes to swear before you? Oh, no,
| no; the case has changed; the
EXIGENCIES HAVE SHIFTED,
| the counterfeit money theory has been
passed up, the mans place has been
| searched, for everybody has been
| brought in-he had never had any
| counterfeit money-Miss Cling never
had any counterfeit money; that is a
| played-out and abandoned idea. Then,
where will we shift the roll of money,
| too-what? How about the loan? They
attack the loan-they attacked it by
| Adry, to make the $1,000 a package of
| 81 bills! What does he swear to?
| Turn to page 272. What kind of
was 'N~I' II was d SOlu
watch. worth about $50" WAS it a
hunting case watch?" Eyes, it was a

| Der anything about any description
| upon it, whether it was engraved or
| not?' well. 1 think, if am not mis-
| taken. there was a picture of horse
| or deer on one side of the case, a
horse or a deer, I don't remember
which, think it was deer" "How
about the roll of money, did you see
how much was there?" He said there
was $50. all 81 pieces. ''It was paper
money! Yes" Anything around
1t?' There was a rubber string
around it." ''WelI, did you see wheth-
