PART FIRST. VOL. 36-NO. 49. ANOTHER SENSATION Harry Hayward Becomes Dramatic When Speaking of His Brother.

ACCUSED HIM OF JEALOUSY And Charged Him With the Holdup of Miss Ging on the Calhoun Road. MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. a careless laugh, Harry Hayward denies the oft-repeated charges of Blixt, and denounces his brother Adry as a liar and a victim of that "green-eyed monsterjealousy." The scene in the court room was one that is seldom witnessed in any court room. The brothers, between whom it is a fight to the death, sat within 20 feet of each other- one in the witness chair and the other back of the attorneys for the state. The looks which passed between them showed the intensity of the hate rankling in the heart of each for the other.

Adry Hayward has a smile on his face that is fuller of malice than his frown. He smiled at his brother, who is accused of murdering Catherine Ging, from the minute he ascended the witness stand until the noon adjournment. It was turn about for Harry, for he did the same thing when Adry was a witness, and the latter may have an Old Testament idea of fair pay. Several times, especially when the accused was describing the scene that occurred when he found his watch in Adry's possession, the elder brother laughed aloud, and with difficulty regained his self. possession.

Lake of the Isles Episode. The principal episode was that occurring when Erwin instructed his client to describe the scene between Adry and himself after the alleged holdup near Lake of the Isles. Harry found it very difficult to confine himself to matters relating only to difficulties between himself and brother. He wanted to go into Adry's threats to kill his father, and it was in connection with this testimony that his feelings got the better of him. As a rule the man is apparently devoid of feeling.

His face expressed indifference generally, but sometimes a trace of curiosity is to be noted in it. No one since the trial opened has seen the slightest trace of apprehension in Hayward's manner or expression. He has never given evidence that he cared particularly for the outcome, except that one morning when the scene occurred with his mother. He Became Vehement, However, in describing the scene in his father's office when he found Adry with his watch, Hayward showed his feelings. For the nonce he dropped his calm, dispassionate style of additions and became vehement.

He leaned forward until, sitting onl the very edge of his high perch, he could lean over and look down upon it. Both hands of the witness were brought into play for emphasizing the points he desired to make, and his glance traveled from Erwin to Nye, from Nye to the jury alternately. A Victim of Jealousy. "My brother Adry is a victim of that green-eyed monster jealousy," he began. "His jealousy of me amounts to a mania--why, if my father, wanted to lend me $50 he dare do it while Adry was in the room for fear of the scene that would At this there was a decided snicker from Adry's corner, and those glancing that way discovered the elder of this brotherly pair in convulsions of glee.

Harry Hayward saw the ridicule his story was receiving and he became enraged. It did not show in any perceptible rising of his voice, but in a marked contraction of the muscles about his eyes and in the broad glint of his white teeth. The witness was going on to describe Adry's repeated threats to assassinate his father when the court interfered and instructed him to refer only to actual scenes between him and Adry. His Tale Excluded. In regard to the holdup Hayward 1 had a tale to unfold which might have carried conviction on this mooted affair, but Mr.

Nye objected to the introduction of this testimony, unless the state would be given a chance to prove that Harry Hayward put the whole thing up himself. When Nye said this Hayward was enraged. He showed it plainly, and, with one hand on each arm of the big chair, looked as though he might spring on the county attorney and choke the life out of him. His eyes snapped dangerously, and he made some very pointed remarks to Mr. Nye.

"We wanted to have this proved," "said Erwin, "and will not limit the examination of the other side in any way. The fuller it is and the deeper they go into this affair, the "You bet," said Hayward, with a good deal of feeling. The result was that the witness was not allowed to speak of anything except what was actually said between them. H. HAYWARD'S STORY.

Defendant in the Celebrated Murder Case Continues His Story, MINNEAPOLIS, Feb. Hayward, the defendant in the murder trial, resumed the stand at the opening of the court. He had evidently been cautioned by Mr. Erwin not to be too prolix The Weekly Established 1858, Daily Established 1890. in his evidence; and showed a disposition to condense his testimony.

His narrative was resumed at the point where he returned to the Ozark after the theater and first heard news that there had been an accident." He had difficulty in persuading Goosman, who was telephoning about it to police headquarters, who was killed. He thought it was Miss Ging he or learned Miss Ireland, and when finally that it was Miss Ging he became very much excited. Convinced She Had Been Murdered. "I thought of all our relations," he said, "and how I had lent her money. I remembered that she had often asked me to lend her my revolver and, a as I vinced tithe she had been murdered.

I thought matter over, conknow what I said to the people there or at the police station. I'd rather you'd take their story for that, as it is probably true. But I was very much excited. I told the officers that she had on a blue dress skirt and not a black one, because I knew it must be so. There are about 60 days in October and November.

During those 60 days I had probably seen her 00 times, and I am sure that out of the 90 times there were 87 when she had on a shirt waist and a blue skirt. That was why I spoke as I did." Sample of Prolix Explanations. This testimony is a fair sample of the prolix explanations to which the defendant seems prone. Mr. Erwin then asked him to describe his experience in the "sweat box," and despite Mr.

Nye's objections, he was allowed to do so. He said he went down town the morning after the murder and was met by a detective, who asked him to go to the chief's office. He did so, and was there under a constant fire of questions all day. He would tell his questioners a lot of things; they would go out and find them all true, and a fresh squad of inquisitors would take their places. Hayward described how he was taken to the morgue and shown the dead body with everybody watching him.

He did not know what he did, but said he felt very bad and knew every one there thought him guilty. He went to Miss Ireland and offered to do anything about the funeral he could. He ordered some roses from a florist, and attended the funeral. On Thursday he and Adry were arrested and put in a cell together. Adry seemed very down in the mouth and Harry had said to him: The Holdup Brought In.

"We're not guilty. What's the use of feeling this way?" But Adry was dispirited and finally Harry had said: what is this? You held her up once. you have anything to do with this?" "Adry was silent and refused to talk any more. After that there was no further conversation betwetn them. This evidence caused a flutter of excitement.

It brought in the story which on Thursday had been ruled out by the court to the effect that Adry was the masked highwayman who last April had held up and robbed Harry, Miss Ging and Miss Vedder, while they were out riding. The fact that the charge was thus brought before the jury will probably lead to a ventilation of the whole episode. Adry, it is understood, will go on the stand and deny the story with an alibi. Mr. Erwin next read the incriminating evidence of Blixt to the defendant, witness, and drew from him explicit denials of the charges made by Blixt.

The same course was followed with Adry's testimony, and this took a good deal of SUSPICIOUS OF THE ALCALDE. Believed the Sloop Landed Hawaiian Refugees and Other Articles. SAN DIEGO, Feb. 26. -The United States revenue cutter Wolcott has just returned from a week's cruise to San Luis Obispo, in search of the 7-ton sloop Alcalde, which sailed from this port Jan.

31, ostensibly on a coasting trip, for which no clearance papers were required. The Wolcott examined the islands of San Clements, Santa Catalina, Santa Cruz, San Miguel and Coronado, in search of the missing sloop, returning to San Diego found that the Alcalde had returned just ahead of her, and was quietly at anchor in this bay. The reason for the search was the belief of the customs officers that the Alcalde was chartered by friends of the Hawaiian revolutionists to meet the suspected schooner H. C. Wahlburg, now held here, far out to sea and take from her certain refugees from Hawaii and such property that might incriminate the Wahlberg if found aboard that schooner.

Think the Story Fishy. Captain Freeman of the Alcalde asserts he was driven south by stress of weather. The customs officials think his story sufficiently suspicious to justify them in keeping the Alcalde under close watch pending the result of the government investigation. They firmly believe the Alcalde met the Wahiburg far out to sea and took her contraband cargo and fugitives, and that the Alcalde landed her cargo on Mexican soil.

Waterloo WATERLOO, IOWA, WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY REV. EDWARD DAVIES. San Francisco's Sensational Preacher Continues to Draw. OAKLAND, Feb. 26.

-Rev. Edward Davies, actor-preacher, word-painter. patron of the waltz and sponsor for bean-poker, continues to preach to immense audiences. He says he realizes that the opportunity of his life is at hand and will try and become a truly great man. He will not feel called upon REV.

EDWARDS DAVIS. to preach if the congregation diminishes, and says he won't speak unless every seat is occupied. He ascribes to jealousy the invitation of the Christian church of Rev. J. Koombs of Connersville, to come to Oakland to correct and discipline him.

Davies said: "I know Rev. Coombs; he is a successful evangelist, but an illiterate manone of the old, old school of theologians. I should welcome him here, however." CREATING MUCH CONTENTION. Expulsion of 8 California Professor for Heresy--His Beliefs. BERKELEY, Feb.

expulsion of Professor Charles Woodworth and student, Maxwell, from the First Baptist church for heresy is creating much contention in this university town. The charges against Woodworth were that he had stated in writing that the Bible contained many errors of history and geology, and that Trinity is only three of the many manifestations of God." Woodworth maintains that Christ was born of two human parents. The professor had also said that "the death of Jesus like the Jewish sacrifices only saves symbolically," and that "the fall of man was not from true holiness, but from childish innocence." The latter statement involved the question of evolution, to which Woodworth firmly adhered as a good method of reasoning, both for science and Christianity. Some of the members of the church arraigned against Professor Woodworth say they will take the matter before the academic senate and the board of regents of the university, arguing that if a man is unfit because of his heresies, to teach Sunday school he is not a proper person to instruct the students of the universsty. this Professor Woodworth says that to eliminate his teachings at the University of California, they must eliminate and put in orthodox clergymen of the old school, who will teach as truths traditions and legends that are no more valuable except symbolically than the myths and legends of ancient Greece.

NOT AT THIS SESSION. Changes in Senate Committee Rules Will Have to Go Over. WASHINGTON, Feb. movement to change the senate rules to the extent of dividing the various appropriation bills among different committees will come to naught this session. A suggestion was made that such a resolution should be introduced and be made to interfere with the pending appropriation bills until consent was granted for a vote upon it, but this scheme has been abandoned.

The programme now agreed upon is that notice shall be given that at the next session of congress, this movement for a reorganization will be pressed until a vote can be had. Life Was Nearly Extinct. ABERDEEN, S. Feb. and Mrs.

GREAT DEAL OF DAMAGE DONE, But the Amount of Booty Secured by the Robbers Was Small. ATLANTIC, Feb. First National bank of Griswold, Cass county, was entered during the night by burglars, who blew open the vault door and then drilled into the front door of the lock safe, put in a heavy charge of explosives, lit a fuse and closed the vault doors. The explosive totally wrecked the vault, doing over $3,500 damage to safe, vault and building. The noise was so great that the burglars made a hasty departure.

Over $100 worth of stamps belonging to the postmaster, and $120 in nickels in the vault are known to have been taken, and probably valuables, but the wreck is so great that it is an impossibility to tell what was stolen. The burglar proof safe inside the vault conta aed $20,000 in cash, and it is not improbable that this safe was entered and the $20,000 stolen. Men are scouring the country for traces of the thieves who are evidently professionals. When the wreckage was cleaned up, it was found that the contents of the time lock safe and burglar proof safe were untouched. PROHIBITED BY FRANCE.

A LIVELY FIGHT. Council Bluff's Officers Have a Battle With Bandits. OMAILA, Feb. The Bee's Council Bluffs special says: A spirited fight between bank robbers and the local authorities occurred here this evening, in which several persons were shot and much powder burned. The oflicers had been notified to watch for the men who this morning robbed the Griswold, Iowa, bank.

Just after dusk an officer noticed a man sitting in the office of the Kiel Hotel who answered the description telegraphed from Griswold. Deputy Sheriff O'Brien was notified and concluded he was one of the men wanted, and called to his assistance Deputy Sheriff Hooker, and in company with officers Peterson and Ward the party entered the office and invited the suspect to jail. As the five men left the hotel, two other hotel guests rose and followed, keeping several yards behind. Just as they reached the court house O'Brien dropped behind, telling the prisoner to walk in front. As he did this the two men who had been following the party commenced firing at the oflicers.

The latter returned the fire, the prisoner and the two strangers separating from the officers and shooting as they ran. For some moments the fusilade was kept up, citizens and other officers joining in the battle, which came general all along the line. Two of the desperadoes were captured and taken to jail and gave the names of John Rielly and James Wilson. In searching for the wounded, the officers discovered O'Brien severely wounded, a bullet having struck him in the abdomen and lodging near the spine. Reilly was hit in the groin; the third man escaped.

It is thought he is now in Omaha, and the police in that city were notified to look out for the man. In searching the men at the jail they found a packet which yielded a large number of postage stamps and a quantity of small change, which fact convinces the oflicers that the two parties now under arrest are members of the gang that robbed the Griswold bank. Motorman Scullen, who was passing the scene of the conflict, with a car, was struck between the eyes by a glancing bullet. At the jail the men who are under arrest refuse to talk upon the subject of the robbery. The World's Fair Tests showed no baking powder so pure or so great in leavening power as the Royal.
