Bad For Harry.
Minneapolis, Feb. 15.-The state in
winding up its case of murder against
Harry Hayward, delivered a body
blow which staggered the defense. The
first witness introduced this morning
was none other than Peter vallalic,
the hackman Of whom Harry Hay
ward had spoken to Adry as being
willing to assist In the proposed crime.
Vallaiie's testimony was most dapag-
Ing to the defense, as 1t corroborated
III striking way one portion of Adry
Hayward's remarkable story. and thus
rendered thoroughly untenable the de-
lenses pet theory as to Adry's sanity.
Vallalie testified that Harry Hayward
had approached him with questions as
to whether he! had ever ''done any,
thing" and IL so. whether his con-
science had bothered him. Hayward
had later asked Vallalie whether he
would drive hack into Lake Calhoun
and let the occupant drown, for a sum
Of money.
II told him was no swimmer" said
Vallalie, land that was about the end
Of It."
This is the first corroboration of the
stories Of Blixt and Adry obtained
from an entirely outside source,
"Fixed" q Medium.
Simon Gittleson. n pawnbroker told
Of loaning Harry $40 on the three
diamond rings that have figured In the
testimony. While the transaction was
being concluded, Harry had ''fiashed
a roll," the amount of money In which
Gittleson could not determine. Harry
often came to him for ''lucky money"
to use as a stake In gambling.
Mrs. Emma Goodale, a trance mcdi.
um doing business now under the
cognomen Of Afme. Peterson, was an
interesting witness. Harry had come
to her alone and asked her to tell Miss
Cling when that lady should call. that
she would win ut gambling. She de-
INJURED, but he told her II she would
do as he asked, she would never lack
for money. Against the advice Of her
husband, she consented to do as Harry

silk counter at Hale T. Thomas dry
goods store Dec. 3. at 4:35. Miss
Cling was going to make dress for
Mrs. Hazelton. The two left the store
at about 5 o'clock, Miss Cling remark
Ing that she had an engagement with
Mr.. Hayward later In the evening

tense brought out the fact that Miss
Cling did not say which Hayward.
At this point Blixt was brought In
by his keepers, the T rail was entered
in evidence, the two revolvcrs likewise.
and Blixt was placed on the stand
again. He assumed his old posture,
and was asked IL he knew Maggie
Wachter. He did not.

Erwin then asked Blixt: "Did you

Blixt denied this. but 1t is under

that he did.

to bring out any admissions.
Mrs. Hazelton was recalled a mo.

Minneapolis, Feb. 1e.-It was the de.

every side to learn what. tack Mr..
Erwin and his assistants had elected
to pursue. To the layman, now that

When John Day. Smith arose to ad.
