TWISTED MURDER CASE.
More Love Letters Read-A Bedroom
 Scene.


 Winsted, Conn.,, Oct 29.-The Hayes murder trial was continued in the Litchfield county superior court to-day, and at 2:30 this afternoon the defense rested its case. The prosecution im- mediately called several witnesses in rebuttal It is now believed that the case will go to the jury at the end of this week.
 This case probably has no equal in the court annals of the state in the number of love letters which are being introduced as evidence, This afternoon four more affectionate letters from Hayes to Miss Cooke were taken from pile numbering over a hundred, mak- ing in all fifty letters which the jury has listened to since the opening of the trial.
 The first witness called in rebuttal by the prosecution was William H. How arth, formerly chief of police of Lowell, Mass. Witness testified that Hayes family in Andover was quarrelsome one and he had been called there sev- eral times to quiet disturbances.
 Mrs Fannie Cooke, step-mother of
 
 quarrel between Hayes and Miss Cooke during the Christmas season of 1900, at which time Miss Cooke was about to make trip to Unionville and the ac- cused objected
 "They were sitting together on the porch one evening"" said Mrs. Cooke, "and suddenly Winnie rushed up to her room crying. After visiting Winnie came down stairs and told MT. Hayes, who looked flushed and angered, that Winnie was sick. He said she had been driving with other men and that he did not think she had treated him right. He was finally allowed to visit Winnie in her bedroom. When I went to the bedchamber and said: MT. Hayes, I think it is time you went away now.' he did not pay any attention to me and continued to whisper to Winnie. as if he was trying to extract some promise from her"
 George l.. Cooke. father of the dead girl, was recalled He remembered en- tering his daughters bedroom on the night in question and seeing Winnie lying on the bed crying. with his wife and Hayes standing in the room. Wit ness says Hayes left the room after he said to him: If there Is any gentleman about you you will go."
 Mrs. Lillian B. Tibbals of Norfolk testified as to the jealous disposition of Hayes.
 Mary R. Champion, at one time roommate of Miss Cooke at the Gilbert Home, told of a visit of her nephew, Clarence Rexford of Concord, Mass, to the room occupied by witness and Miss Cooke Cross-examined by the defense the witness was asked. Anything wrong about his conduct there?" Wit ness sharply replied "No. sir.
 Any reason why he tHayes) should be jealous?" inquired Judge Briscoe. Indeed, mo-" responded the witness, emphatically.
 Wade Cooke, brother of the dead girl testified that his sister had received fox skin as a present from gentleman friend.
 pr. George W. Brown of Winsted the last witness of the day, who attended Hayes at Colebrcnk River, stated that the prisoner vas not insane at that time. At 3.30 o'clock all the witnesses for the state had been heard and court adjourned until 10 o'clock tomorrow

STILL. EXAMINING SCHLEY
LEMLY CONTINUES HIS RIGID
 CRoSs-QUEST1ONI
Exceedingly Slow Progress Made-.fes- rerday Consumed In Investigating the Cruise from Santiago to CicnfuegOs- The Examination Being Made from n Carefully Prepared List of QuestiOns- Sharp Answers by the Witness.

Washington, Oct 29-The cross- ex- animation of Admiral Schley was con- tinued throughout the session of the court of inquiry to-day. The prog ress made was exceedingly slow Prac- tically the whole day was consumed in questioning the admiral about the cruise from Cienfuegos to Santiago and the motives and influences that govern ed him in turning back after his squad ron had arrived in the vicinity of the latter port. This latter branch of the ross-eXamination had not been con- cluded when the court adjourned.
 The blockade at Santiago, the recon noissance on May 31 and the battle of July still remain to be covered. It Is hardly probable that the judge advocate can conclude before adjournment to- morrow. After he finishes quite a num- Der of questions prepared by the mem- bers of the court will be submitted. The judge advocate In conducting the cross examination used a carefully prepared typewriter list of questions They called for a comparison of statements Admiral Schley has made either in his direct testimony, in his communication to the senate or in his dispatches to Admiral Sampson or to the navy de- partment; with the testimony of wit nesses who have preceded him and the logs and signal books of the other ves- sels of the fleet.
 The questions were not asked in chronological order but jumped from one subject to another and from one stage of the campaign to another. Throughout the strain to which the witness naturally was subjected while under examination the admiral retain ed his customary composure. Only once or twice did he display impatience or weariness. At one point when asked a question he replied that he had been asked the same question yesterday. at the same time telling what his reply had been then. On another occasion when he was being searchingly inter- rogated as to his distances from shore at Cienfuegos, and as to whether the distances were matter of a record, he responded rather tartly:
 "Oh, no. I did not know they would ever become matter of such great tm- portance, or should have plotted them and made memorandum, as l should of many other things"

Certificate of II Heasonabie Doubt Granted
 by Justice MncLenn.

New York, Oct 29--Justice MacLean in the supreme court to-day granted a certificate of reasonable doubt in the case of Johann Most, the editor of the Frelheit an anarchistic paper, in order to stay his sentence of twelve months Imprisonment for the publication of an article entitled Murder vs. Murder . which appeared on the day of Presi- dent McKinley's assassination.
 Justice MacLean says the only proof to support the judgment is that Most purloined an article, expressing certain sentiments, written by another half a century ago, and published it as his own lin a paper professedly of some circulation but which circulation is shown by the sale of but a single copy that purchased by the police, probably for the purpose of prosecution" He further says that 1t may be doubted reasonably whether the judgment, even with that support, should stand, as pla- giarsm is not a criminal offense under the laws of the United States.
 Tt is not shown" says Justice Mac Lean, that the defendants expression OI DOITOWGu Stlltlliltlllb IldS WOIhtu jury to any individual by falsifying any fact, or to the public peace or health, or that his acts were attended with cir- cumstances likely to disturb or endan- ger the public peace or health, or that his acts were attended with circum- stances likely to disturb or endanger the public peace or health"
 The justice also says that the con- tention that the publication has openly outraged public decency rests solely up- on the language of the article itself, and the indecency repressed by the law rela tes rather to action of words which nature and propriety require to be con- cealed and suppressed and to public displays, sale and exhibition of evil books and prints.
 "The indecorum of this pilfered screed," says Justice MacLean, Ifs of another sort. It prates of humanity immortality and morality, reason and conscience, but carries no suggestion of the obscene"
 These utterances, Justice MaoLean says, do not come within the meaning of the section of the code under which Most was prosecuted.

If the drill which is pounding away
day and night out in Salem township
on the 200 acres of land which Mr..
j, G. Noble has leased finds good
flow of gas, heintends to celebrate and
invite all the folks out to participate.
Mr.. Noble has gone away from the
developed field and taken 1000 acres
under lease. He also has contracted
for the purchase of several hundred
acres north of Gas City and if he gets
all the gas he wants he will build big
factory. But for the exhaustion of
the water supply the first we'll would
have been finished about the middle of
this week. l.. b. Pearson's pond has
now been tapped and work will be
pushed.
Celebrate" said he, speaking of
finding gas, ''why if get a good well
there I'm going to build u big plat
form. hire an orchestra, light jets and
invite all lola and Salem townships to

How To Get City Water.

Applications are pouring into the
city hall for city water and ques.
tions are being asked, showing that
there is lot of uncertainty and many
errors in the minds of the public. In
the hope of clearing up the matter a
REGIS TER reporter interviewed the
city superintendent and attorney for
such information as they could give.
If you want to use the water make a
written application to the city clerk,
in person. When there is water
superintendent appointed he also can
give permits, and Mr.. w. l.. Allison
is acting temporarily in that capacity.
At the time of making applications
you deposit SO with the clerk. if you
live on an S0-foot street, or $40 if you
live on a 100-foot street. This pays
for the tapping of the main, the stop
box and pipe to your property line,
which is about where the fence would
be in front of your house. You then
engage the services of one of the four
or five plumbers engaged in the busi-
ness and he will complete the laying
of pipes and the connections in your
house,
If you happen to live on a street
down which no main goes you must
apply to the council for instructions
as to procedure. Several such cases
have already came up. 1t seems pro-
bable that when two or more people
go in together and make applications
and furnish the pipe, or the cost of
same, the city will tap the nearest
main and lay the pipe to the proper
ties, as in other cases, and the cost of
the extra pipe will be returned to the
consumer in free water rental until
pipe is paid for.
Two gangs are now at work max
ing connections and applications will
be served in th O. Ger of their fling.
1t is misde uor for any person
not licensed plumber to turn the
water off or on at the stop box and
this ordnance will be enforced. Rules
