HAYES MURDER CASE
BEGUN IN JUDGE M'CLERNAN'S
COURT IuIs AFTERNOON
LARGE CROWD OF SPECTATORS
HAYES on Hand With Two Attorneys
Shaved and Neatly Dressed-Slow
Work Getting Jury-Long
Trial Expected.

The trial of Patrick Hayes on the
charge of numbering William j. Nc
Caine was begun at o'clock this after,
noon.
The courtroom was crowded with spec
tatOrs and some of them were required
to vacate their chairs for the benefit Of
unseated jurymen.
Hayes was in court with his counsel,
Judge Wines and Maurice English, and
he was neatly shaven and nattily
dressed.
County Attorney Breen and Assistant
County Attorney Mackel represented the
state. When the trial opened the work
of getting a jury was begun.
This will be long task probably, as
the publicity given to the killing of Nc
Caine was widespread. Also, good
many men oppose capital punishment,
and are therefore disqualified as jurors.
The securing of a jury may take day
or SO.
The state added five or six witnesses to
the Is or 16 already listed this afternoon,
and in all probability 30 or 40 witnesses
will be examined at the trial. No doubt
the case will last four or five days.

BAILEE BUYS BEER.
Failure to Return Bailor's Change
of &x,75.


complaint was issued today by Depz
uty County Attorney Lynch charging
James Brady with petty larceny in the
stealing of $4.75, which belonged to RobS
ert Toole.
The complaint was lodged in the jus<
tice court of H. s. Libby of MeaderA
vile.
According to Toole's story he visited
Brady at the latter's home, near thk
Braund house, on Monday, and while
there entrusted a five-dollar piece to
Brady to buy a can of beer win. !
Toole says he authorized Brady to buy
20 cents worth of beer and return the
change. 3
He alleges that Brady bought the beer
and brought it back to the house, but
out of that he has never paid back to
him his $4.75 in change.
So he charges Brady with maliciously
stealing and converting to his own use
the sum of SAFE while acting as baiee.
