NO SENSE OF DIRECTION Is Confused on Points of Compass, but Unshaken on His Facts. A s. Knllo. tlirt state's tr witness Jit t:iu trial of Caloh A. Inlow, cliarRetl with t lie murder of Thomas "Eddie" White, floundered In n .'lonh of questions relat ing to direction nnd t lio points of the coiiipnsa during t!)c trial yesterday after noon, nnd became confused that when he was asked to point youth from where lie .stood, lie pointed directly to the north. Tills was uter Rollo had revealed his only pregnable point by stilting that lie could never toll direction? without, a com pass In hie hand and had never possessed tlio aonso of direction. He bad admitted fhat even after h had lived for several j ears a few mlle3 from Hilling, Mont., and bad been to that town many times, j he could not tell the direction, though Ins could wallr or drive- there by day or by nlKht. After floundering in tltis maze for some time he was rescued by JudKc Morris L. Ritchie, who permitted Rollo to explain his .situation in his own way, and by one minute of skillful ijuestlonlnh' Judge Ritchie landed Rollo on solid ground asaln. After that there was no falter ing in Iila testimony. Witness Was Weary. Tho incident occurred during yesterday afternoon's session after Rollo had under gone many hours of searching cross-examination. He was mentally and phy sically weary and had bocome tangled and confused in describing directions. Judge Ritchie took up his examination and Instructed Rollo to point -to the south, the direction ho was traveling on the night White's car was approaching him. Rollo stood up and after a. moment's hesitation pointed directly to the north. Judge Ritchie then took up the examina tion In earnest and within sixty seconds had Rollo straightened out. The defense hfid required Ttollo to Il lustrate with tho stenographer's table representing the automobile, tho incidents be saw at the time White was murdered. Rollo. after the court had taken him In hand, said that tho automobile np proached him from the south, near he west end of Third East street. A man jumped from the west side of the street to the west, or left side of the automo bile and fired. The figure was close to the automobile, so close when the shot was. tired that the man could have -touched The bullet that passed through White's neck was fired from the left side and the skin was powder marked, thus bcar ing out all of the features of Rollo's story 1n so far as it related to the posl tlon and manner of the shooting. Rollo said that the second shot was rhcil an Instant Inter and the two figures run down the sidewalk on the left or west side of -the street toward a house fur j ther to the south. Rollo followed them until he had passed the automobile and then lost sight of them In the durk- Had Interesting Career. Rollo said, under cross-examination, that hu was a graduate of -the University or Edinburgh In Edinburgh, Scotland, willi the degree of bachelor of arts; that he had been a horticultural expert for the British government on the west coast of Africa for several years; that he had taken part In a tribe war of the natives and was struck on tho face with a war club and disfigured ; that he had suf fered yellow fever in Africa: had been held up by three robbers at Great Falls, Mont., all of whom were afterwards cap tured; that he had been injured in a run j' way or two: was Injured once on ship-' 1 board and had suffered his share of ac- 1 i-idents and misfortune. When he saw the shots he believed at first that there had been a robbery, but 1 when he saw White crouched on his seat he thought tho man was dmnk and that the shots had been fired by some one In fun. Me lighted a cigar near the automo bile, and when he returned to tho scene with the officers the following week he took them to the spot where he had lighted the cigar and found the charred match tips. After walking south for several blocks ic came to a main road running east and west, where he turned and met a labor ing man with a dinner pail. He ex plained that he had become lost and asked for directions back to the city. The laboring man, -whose Mdentitv lias j never been learned by the officials. 1 showed him his road. lie walked to State 1 street and then to his room. Show Some Discrepancies. Some apparent discrepancies between Rollo's testimony at tho preliminary hearing and that given earlier, in the present trial were found by tho defense. Hollo explained these by saying that at tne time of the preliminary hearing ho wiin 111 and under the case of a physl- Ian. Jie was then terribly confused, and ku6 he did not know at that time -whether he "was on his head or his feet." Wlien hn got back to the rooming JBJJ liouse he told the landlady, May Leslie. that he had seen some shooting and thought at first that he had got mixed up in another holdup. He read none or rho papers oa Saturday or Sunday, be ing loo busy -with his exhibit at tho fair to give them any attention. Attorney E. A. Walton for the defense asked Rollo if ho had not gone back to the seen of the shooting the next raorn ing about daybreak, and if he hod not seen a crowd of women about tile auto mobile, and if he hud notakcd them what tins trouble -was and tell thorn that hr waj a stranger in the city looking for relatives and had become lout? 1 "No, I didn't." Rollo answered. "I was too busy. I did not take a walk except J to go to tho fair grounds. I did not sea a. crowd. I did not ask any women about the trouble, because I am not in the JBJI habit or going into crowds. I did not j xay T was lost nnd a stranger, nor that 1 was looking fon a relative." First Told Officer. The first tim ha deacrioad what lie had scon waa on a train tho following Sunday night, when he told Deputv Shoriff Halo of Utah county of his ox pcrionco. Hale had told him of the mur- dnr and of the manner of Wlilte's death, and Rollo said, "I'll bet that's the shoot- ing I saw." ajid then told Hale all about it "That was tho first timo I opened my mouth about the details of tho affair, as I'd say on my dying oath," Kaid Rollo. pounding the arm of his chair with om- phasls. At the beginning of the cross-examina-tlon yesterday Attorney B. A. Walton Hsktd the witness if hn was familiar with a block map of the streets, and ln dlcated a chart drawn for the purposo of flluptratlng the testimony of various wit- "Ko. rin familiar with fruit trees," he snapped. He was aiked to Indicate the route of his trip on the chan and said if he did hr,d have to indicate it backwards, as the map was upside down.

Goslien Is Hasten ing Back to the City to Offlciato at Last-Eites of His -Friend. . The funeral of Louis L. Tern", "who died suddenly Tuesday afternoon in the offices of Dr. A. J. Hosmer, will be held at 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon from the family residence. 1229 East South Temple -street. The sudden death of Mr. Terry caused a profound shock in local busi ness circles and among his host of friends and relatives. Mr. Terrv was a member of the firm of Brown. Terry & Woodruff, proprietors of the Troy laun dry, the largest laundry in the world. Dr. Edward D. Woodruff, president of tho Commercial club and member of the firm with which Mr Tarry was asso ciated, returned from the trades excur sion yesterday morning, called back by the sudden death of his partner. Mr. Terry was in good health at the time the excursion left Monday morning. It is probable that the Rev. Elmer I. Goshen will officiate at tho funeral. Dt.

Ills testimony had covered a period of six hours. During tho entire time Ttollo impressed the spectators by his candor and his earnestness and by hlH fldolitv to detail throughout his narrative. When confused by questions concerning direc tions he would admit with amazing frankness that the sense of direction was never possessed by him, but ho would vol unteer to Illustrate tho answers to the questions. These Illustrations were plain and Rollo's testimony was declared by the prosocution to have been of great value to the state's case. Identified Mrs. Inlow. Ransom M. Usher, a street car con ductor living at G34 Third East stroot, testified that Mrs. Inlow had boarded his car. on the MIdvale run, at Ninth South and State streets, when bound for tho city, on the trip that ended at Main and Second South streets at 12:32 o'clock on the morning of October G. He said that he had been taken to police headquar ters that day by two detectives and Mrs. Inlow was poiuted out to him by a "fat Follcemati," whom ho afterward paid waa nspector Carlson. He identified Mrs. Inlow at that time aa the woman who had boarded his car. Usher said tlm police took him to a room of which Mrs. Inlow and the jail matron were the onlv other occupants, and aBked him if she, Mrs. Inlow, was tho woman who had boarded his car. He had identified her in that manner, Hoj remembered her face distinctly, but could' not remember if she wore a hat or veil. He was not sure who paid her faro, though a man got on th car at the same time. He was not able to Identify Tnlow as the man, though Inlow was pointed out to him by the police. He did not know where the woman left tho car. The cross-examination, which was con ducted by Attorney Wlllard Hanson, was of a most energetic character, but Usher was not confused. Hanson asked Tj6her If he could identify any of tho passen gers on that trip if he were to see them in the courtroom at that moment aside from two men peroonally known to him. "Yes, there's one I could identify," Ushr answered. "Who's that? Was that the woman the police pointed out to you as Mrs. Jnlow nnd whom you identified at the police station?" "Yes. Mr. Inlow." Usher answered. "I remembered her face." He declared that he had no doubt whatever as to the accuracy of his Idan tlfi cation. Motorman Testifies. Axel Carlson, motorman of th car on thct trip, testified that the car stopped at Ninth South and State streets to take on passengers. A man and a woman boarded thn car at the front end. He knew neither and would not bo able to identify them. Luther Ensign, a youth living at 715 South Second West street, testified that he saw White's automobile about 8 o'clock on the morning of October 5 at ths point whore White was killed. He noticed that the red tall light was burn ing and hn extinguished it. It was an oil lamp. The trial will be resumed at ?.30 o'clock thin morning, as it will be necessary to ndjourn court a little earlier than usual this aiternoon, some of the attorneys in the case having business in the supreme court, today. PROPOSES HE STMT 01 01 II City Engineer Urges Appro priation of $24,000 to Be gin Actual Construction. MOVE IS NECESSARY City's Rights to Lake Phoebe and Twin Lakes Reservoir Building in Danger. A motion that the city appropriate $25,(100 with which to continue Iho work on the proposed reservoir dams on Lake Phoebi: and Twin lakes at the luiad of Big Cottonwcod canyon was made at the city commission mcctinc yesterday by W. II. Korns, commissioner of water supply. Accompnnyinic t ho motion was a com munication from Sylvester O. Cannon, city engineer, calling attention to tho necessity of resuming operations on the dum.iltes if tho city's rights, as granted by the state and federal governments, are to be preserved. No allowance for this work was made in the 1013 budget, and if the appropria tion is made the, money will have to bo diverted from funds created for other Im provements proposed for this year. For this reasoa the question was referred to tho committee of the wholo for consid eration. Will Oppose License. Each of the commissioners Is in favor of carrying on the work of the lake res ervoirs if some way of providing the money can be arrived at. Commissioner Korns is of the opinion that the project Is of such importance that the money should be taken from other funds to carry it to completion. About $5000 was spent In preliminary work on the dam at Lake Phoebe last year. The city engineer, in his recommenda tion, urged that $24,000 bo appropriated with which to begin actual construction of the dam at the outlet of this lake and that another ?1000 be spent in prelim inary' work on tho danistte at the outlet of Twin lakes. He pointed out that under the rights conceded to tho city by the federal government and tho stato con siderable work must be done on the dams this year in order to hold those rights. The Lako Phoebe project is in condition to bo actually undertaken, unci the Twin lakes project should be ad vanced far enough to protect tho city's interests, ho declared. Commission Favorable. As agreed upon by the commission Tuesday, a resolution was passed in structing the city, attorney to go before the district court and ask for a rehear ing on the application of Sam Scarcelli for a saloon at 228 West Third South street. A protest against tho saloon has been filed with tho commission, signed by 190 residents of the neighborhood. On behnlf of these protestants the city will oppose the license. Innsmuch as the city failed to make protest at the time an opportunity for doing so was given by the court on the original hearing, it is doubtful whether a rehearing will be granted. MAY MOVE BUILDING TO FAIR GROUNDS Structure Which Will Contain Utah's Exhibits at Panama Exposition May Be Brought Here. A plan to got an additional building for the Utah state fair grounds without ex pense to the state is advanced by Horace S. Ensign, secretary of the fair board. Tho Idea Is to have the Utah building at the Panama-Pacific exposition built so that It can be taken down and moved to the Utah fair grounds after It lias served Its purpose in San Francisco. In dis cussing the matter yesterday Mr. En sign said: The general way Is to spend a lot of money for an attractive building that at the close of the exposition must bo disposed of as junk, Spencer Clawson has told me that the Utah building in Seattle cost about 57000 and after tho fair was sold for H00. It seems to mo that the steel frame work of a building liko that could hn made in sections, so that It could be brought back here after the fair If our building Is valuable in San Francisco it certainly could be used to advantage here. Tho railroad com panies do not charge for transporta tion of such material, so that we could get tho building on our fair grounds by Just talcing it down and putting it together again. I believe such a building as we shall have there would be valuable here as headquarters for women's clubs or for a woman's rest room and head quarters, which Is something needed on the fair grounds. I shall put the matter before the proper persons aa soon as I havo an opportunity, and see no reason why It should not be acted upon. PRIZES AWARDED IN M. I. A.

Conference Important. Tho chairman of tho subcommittee. Job P. Lyon, yesterday sent a number of in vitations to the city officials and other public-spirited citizens of the towns men tioned asking them to bo present Fri day. The intention of tho promoters of the bonding project is to creato a senti ment throughout the county in favor of the bonds. It Is argued that tho people of tho rural districts will bo benefited even to a greater extent than the resi dents of the city. The proposition will be placed before the conference Friday to this effect: That It wore better to build 140 miles of modern macadamized road to cover every part of the county and maintain It at half the expense that tho fifty-five or sixty miles of inferior dirt roads now cost. Tho saving In cost of maintenance, it "will bo pointed out, would more than cover tho Interest charges on the bonds. It Is expected that Friday's conference will result In tho ndoption of a syste matic plan of campaign and that when tho time comes for submitting to the voters the proposition to bond thoro will be an overwhelming sentiment In favor of tho project. PAY-AS-YOU-ENTER CARS START SUNDAY The pay-as-you-enter cars arc now ready for a thorough test and will be put into sorvlce Sunday on tho South Temple and Second West street lines. The management of tho company asserts that the cars will bo more comfortable and safer than are the others in uso In the city.

Tne danger of accidents from Htarting loo soon Is thus eliminated. The cars are boarded only from the rear and can be left from oither end. The spaco Qn the rear platform is occu pied with equipment and the passages for Ingress and egress so that thero is no room for smokers. There are no section al doors on tho front of the car, so that smoking will not bo permitted, according to the management.
