ness. When his attorney began to lead
him into the details OF the circumstances
attending the tragedy, he went 'up in
he air as a horseman would say, and
made a bad impression.
In fact Hayward made such poor Job
OF telling his own story that the court sug-
gested that il would be better to get ON
with the evidence and not explain motives
and beliefs so much.
As whole from the testimony given
by the witness he has not made any
points for himself and his appearance
has told against him According to his
story, his gambling deals at Chicago. with
Miss Cling as a partner. were in the early
part of the year and finally in August he
refused TO use her money for that purpose.
The witness tried to carry the impression
to the jury that he suspected that she was
pursuing her gambling with others, but it
was only by innuendoes.
Strange to say, the states attorney
made no objection, allowing him TO have
All tho rope he wanted. His explanations
aud opinions were all allowed TO 20 in
without comment Mr. Nye liked them.
They gave latitude for cross examination.
One queer point was that while Harry in
sisted that he mover loaned Miss Cling the
$1,000 but only gave IT to htr TO Keep for
him until he demanded it, her note to him
refers TO il as q loan.
Money Transactions with Miss Cling.
One feature was when he took the long
letter written to Miss Cling by him in
which he wanted her to Jet him have the
money. In the original there appeared
some very light pencil marks He tried
to explain that he did not know they were
thero when he wrote, and finally said it
did not make any difference anyway, for
the meaning was the same whether the
pencil words were used or the ones in ink
II he had made the marks, he thought
they would have been in ink.
The most interesting part of his evidence
TO the audience was when he came 10
that part of the testimony which brought
to the day Of the murder He was more
hating more uncertain than ever at this
point. He led up to it by describing the
scene Of the signing Of the 81, 600 note 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.

was not prearranged that Blixt should
come there at that time and telling Blixt
to say he saw many large bills The elo-
vator man had said Harry had the bills in
an envelope
Blixt said they were in n roll. and Har-
~ said they were on the table ont of the
envelopes, and that Bnxt must have seen
that they were large bills. Harry caused
n laugh by stating that he made a special
" Of 500 bills
