Impression of hygienists thai our diet Is one-

the roe which we actually eat has relatively

Is much less completely digested than of
animal foods. One.fourlh or one. third of

escape digestion and thus be \seless for

HAYWARD WilL PLEAD ON SATURDAY
Dlxt Has Set , UI' I Strong Dorense-Now
Evidence Said to have Ucen Discovered
Connecting UIyynrd with a
Green Goods timing.
:
MINNEAIOLIS. Dec. 17.-Claus A. h3lixt .
the self-confessed murderer of Catherine Glng
was arraigned In the district curt this morning .
Ing and In a weak voice pleaded not guilty.
The state had rather expected I plea of
guilty and asked Dxt : I he understood what
ha was doing. He said he did . and the plea
was entered. Attorney A. H. O'Del appeared -
peared for him. Dlxt having refused to see
the attorneys appointed by the court to un-
dertak the case. The case was cet for trial
January 7 In spite of O'Dell's demand that It
b set not earlier than January 27. Dlxt
was . a picture of ply and misery In court ,
and seemed scarcely able to stand.
The cass against the two Hay wards In the
municipal court were formally dismissed this
morning the grand jury having taken action .
When Bixt stood up at the bar and his
attorney entred the plea or nol guilty County
Attorney Nye was much taken hack. Tic
spoke sharply to the prIsoner ant naked' If he
, understood what he was doln ! Bust : seemed ,
dazed but finally said . hal defiantly . that !
he did. Mr ; Nyc was therefore forced to face
the probability of the trial of the case , wher
he had expected a plea ) at guilty. nlxt
made no explanation of his acton and the
state _ asked _ none. u , _
. Harry . uaywara will l arraigned In the I
same court st 5:30 : this afternoomm . 'flits hour I
IS chosen to avoid the curious , crowd which I
bas been watching for the arraignment for
several days.
The defense will be on the plea of tern-
porary Insanity brought on by the habitual
use Of alcoholc stimulants given by another
for time purpose of provoking the deed. Mr.
O'Del claims to have medcal : ettmony Which !
will bear out this theory.
Hayward . he claims was unable to secure
the sarvcis : of Bust In the fearful crime
until he hall tilled him with 1 pint of
whisky , taken almost at one dose . He intends .
tends to show timid alcohol had a crazing ef-
feet ordinarily on Dlxt and that In this case
the effect was more than ordinary . Ills past
history shows that ( whlsly affects him so as
to mallo him temporarily insane , he claims.
Wih this defense 1Ixt can S 01 the stand
alli tel the story against Hawart. and that
story wi blacken Hayward more than ever
All hopes of Hayward , therefore that Dlxt
wi not testify against him have practically
disappeared for It will be mist's aIm to have
I hayward tried frt and convicted , I possible ,
and this wi let him off with perhalls I too-
and. or . as the attorney believes . third degree
verdict.
ONE O A GREEN GOODS GANG.
Al afternoon paper says : The latest development -
velopment In the Sling murder case Is the
discovery of evidence that leads the authmori-
ties to time belief that Harry Hayward Is the
western agent or an eastermm goods
wesler enter green ! con-
cern whose headquarters are at New York ,
with IJrlnclpal branch at Chlcao. The tnt
clew lo this was given by one of the member
of the Klng whose conscience was quickened
by the murder ot Catherine Glng. A day
after the murder Julia Gng , time twin slter
of Kite , who resides at Auburn , N. Y. reo
celvet an anonymous letter laying that her
sister had ben murdered , and that she had
better have the mater investigated . A
search , the letter intimnated , would bring time
facts to light In the case , and time guilty
parties to justice. The tone of time letter , as
well as several hlats therein , leads . the au-
thorites to believe that IC the murder had
not been solved as quickly al It was the
wrier would have furnished evidence enough
t lead to the solution of the affair . The
authorIties or NII York did tko up the
clew , and following It up discovered Ilat
the writer wa a member of a green goods
gang which 111 been operating extensively .
What additional facts the omcera discv-
ere Ilnve been kpet secret , but It has been
learned that the connecton of Harry HIY-
wart with the organIzation has l'en of long
standing and timaj } In his series Of a
In various paris of the country Hayward hi
handled a larga amount Cf the fictitious cash .
sufficient to gain the entire confidence or the
gang.
The loney which Catherine Gng obtained
from Hayward jlt previous to , her death
will be' shown 'to have been a portion of the
green goods which passed Into her posses-
sion from Hayward , who afterwards found It
necessary to put his victim out of the way to
prevent exposuro. The authorites do not
claim that this was the main cause of Miss
Gnls removal , but that It was time factor
which counted. _
BAlmy HAYWARD DROUGHT OUT.
harry T. Hayward was brought over from
St. 'Paul ' this afernoon to plead to time Indictment -
dictment charging him with the murter of
Catherine Ging . but asked a continuance ,
and was granted till Saturday morning next
to make his plea. At 5 p. m. court was
opened , with JUdge Hicks on the bench , and
Hayward stood before the bar as the clerk
read tie Indictment. Hayward gave a slight
sneer 'when that official read the document
ehargh\g \ him with murder In the first de-
gree , for aiding , abetting . counseling , commanding -
manding , procuring and hiring Claus A.
Bixt to 1(1 Catherine Ging. For a few
moments only he paid attention , then he
turned abC 1001'01 at ( lao little crowd of
attorneys and eyed the crowd with evident
Interest. Never OICI did he quail .
"tVhAt Is your plea. guilty or not guilty ? "
asked the clerk.
"If the court please . " broke In his attorney -
torney . "we weult ask until ! Saturday morn-
lag to plead. "
"Very well . " said the court , "If the county
attorney toes nol object , we will give until
Saturday morning at 10 o'clock. "
That was al The prisoner was then
lodged In the county Jai , In a cage directly
below that occupied by Blxt , his accom-
plce. and apparently In the best of spirits ,
ordered hits supper sent to him as soon as
possible. ,
