GOOD WITNESS FOR DEFENSE
His Testimony Conceded to
Have Hurt the Case of
the State.

MINNEAPoLls, Feb. 13.-The cross-ex-
animation of Adry Hayward IN the
murder trial brought out fearful con-
dition of affairs in the Hayward family,
in their domestic relations. Adry is
evidently indignant at the course being
pursued by the defense. He answered
all questions with cynic smile and an
air Of qualification. The brothers are
evidently possessed of a violent hatred
for each other, of long standing The
scene in court between the mother and
her two boys had evidently had a great
effect on Adry and had male his night
sleepleSs. His eyes were duh and heavy.
Not in Position to Answer.
Erwin began his questioning roughly,
and asked Adry about the trouble there
was between him and his father and
Harry.
"Were you not crazy on Oct. ~" he
asked.
''Well, as to that replied Adry, "I'm
not III position to answer and he
laughed as the court ruled the question
out.
With regard to the charge that he had
embezzled money from his father, Adry
admitted that he had been charged with
dong so by both Harry and his father,
but he had charged at the time that the
money had leen stolen from his fiat by
Harry for the purpose of fomenting
trouble. On Oct. Z he had been request
ed by his mother to go to her apartments
and talk the matter over. The inter-
view was a stormy one. Harry had con-
tinually said: "Why don't you give
father back the money! Adry claimed
that the books were straight and that
Harry had the missing money. Mrs.
Hayward became incensed at her elder
son, and he turned to her with the re-
tort: Mother, If you think I'm dis
honest, why did you raise
Such Litter of Pups?"
Then came threats from Harry that if
Adry did not go out at once he would
knife him. Later Harry had told the
witness that his father was carrying a
revolver and would shoot him on sight.
THAT was all that made the trouble
between my mother and myself, said
Adry.
"Don't shake your head, mother" he
added, looking straight at Mrs. Hay
ward who sat beside Harry, cts all
true and you know it. Tn telling the
| truth.
"Tell it all, tell it ALL" cried the
mother, ''leave out nothing.
Some Questions Not Allowed.
Mr. Erwin asked number of ques-
tions which We're ruled out by the court.
Among these were the following:
''Did you tell your father and mother
that you were being shadowed?"
Did you not tell them that folks were
peering into the windows constantly,
and the next one who did it would get
the contents of your revolver?''
s'Did you tell your father that you
met man on your fishing trip who told
you that you had had trouble and would
have more, and that you were so i'm.

insured?''
