FAMOUS HAYDEN MURDER CASE IS.
 NOW RECALLED.
Especial from United Press. )

Especial from United Press.
 New Haven, oct. 27-The famous Hayden murder case in Connecticut in 1879 is recalled by the Richeson case in Massachusetts, today.
 Old residents recall the sensation when Rev. H. P. Hayden, young Methodist minister, of North Madison, was arrested and indicted for the mur- der of Mary Stannard. a young do- mestic in the minister's residence. Arsenic was found in the dead girls stomach and shortly afterward it was discovered that MT. Hayden purchas- ed arsenic before her death. The girl was pregnant.
 Sensation followed sensation when a box of arsneic was found and when the medical examiner announced that he had found bloodstains on a rock in a stream where the minister is sup posed to have bathed his hands just after cutting finger in opening the alleged box of arsenic. The poison found in the barn was exactly the same as found in the girls stomach. later proven to be moth grOwths. It was the states claim that the poison found in the barn was used.
 The lawyers in the case, many of whom are still living, were the leaders of the Connecticut. crmiinal bar. Thos. M. Waller, later governor, lead the states forces. 'TSam'' Jones of Hart ford, was the brilliant leader of the defense. The trial lasted two months and was reported quite as extensively as the present Richeson case. Hay den was released after the jury dis agreed and although the case was on the docket for twelve years he was never brought to trial again. He left the ministry and engaged in several businesses in New Haven dying only a few years ago.
