On his way back to the Jail Friday
afternoon, he said to one of his depu-

When he reached his cell he was
provoked because he had to unpack
his clothes, and exhibited more petu-

He was removed to new quarters on
the top floor, and has a large cell,
which is under the care of Frank

Friday evening he received a call
from Attorney Shumaker, but the usual

Hayward will be carefully watched
from now on, for he has on one or two
occasions thrown out hints indicated
a suicidal intent if the last hope failed
him.
He was asked how he felt yesterday
after dinner, and in a pleasant voice
he replied:
'Oh. about as usual" He laughed
little and said people talked about his
wonderful nerve, which he thought
rather peculiar. Il am innocent" he
said, "and an innocent man is always

The public demanded a victim in
the case Of Hayward, but since learn

the news, I am more convinced of his
innocence than ever
Mr. Erwin thinks if the trial had
been held outside of MINNEAPOLIS it
would have resulted differently.
The case now said he, must take
the usual course. In case a new trial

The jury did not have the slightest
difficulty in agreeing unpon verdict.
1t was mere '-the-whisp that
deluded the Tall Pine in believing that
the rapt attention which he received,
especially from two or three of the
jurors, denoted that his wonderful
argument was receiving any credence
at their hands. The men were evil

lect that could so plausibly account
for the conduct of Harry Hayward,
but there were too many opposing
facts to reconcile even that elaborate
speech to the truth.
According to one of the jurors who
consented to talk about the case, there
seemed to have been no doubt in the
minds of any of them from the first
