Carlson told the police that he had I recognized the picture of Anderson , m the papers as being that of the ! man to whom he had talked on the train. He said that he hesitated at first to report what he knew, hut after reading that nder?on had re ! turned with the declared Intention of clearing himself of the suspicion cast by Mr Kkman s repudiation of her first confession, he thought It was time to act. He accordingly called up Police Inspector C. A Carlson yesterday at noon and made an ap pointment with him for later in the day. At the jail he and Anderson recognized each other, shaking hands without introduction Much Time Together.

Carlson is employed as a packer for the Western Electric company. H' Is 25 years of age and well known here Anderson was cheerful last night over the fact that a witness to the time of his ar-rival had been located He said; "I was as innocent of any knowl , edge of the murder until after the exposure in Ogden as I would have been had I never come to Salt Lake. The woman made me wonder several i times by strange actions and re marks, hut 1 never suspected any thing tragic in connection with her' apparent worry. When we stopped in Ogdon H was against her wish. She objected to having the trunk taken to the hotel where we were I stopping. en she Insisted on coming back to Salt Lake 1 had in tended to send her on to Michigan as soon as I could have arranged it. but she would not wait. I expected to stop in Ogden for a time. yielding to her wishes, I went to the depot, bought her a ticket to Sal'. Lake and checked the trunk. She said that she wanted to come to Salt Lake to get some more of her things When we were arrested, she turned to me and asked me in Finnish It I would not go to the nearest drug store and buy her some poison. I told her 1 could not do it, as I was myself under arrest. As soon the discovery of the body was made and she acknowledged to having killeJ the child, I understood why she had acted 60 queerly " At the conclusion of the Interview which was held In the hall of the Jail. Anderson bowed himself back into the boys' ward and closed tho door The horror of the murder seems to have lifted somewhat from I his mind and he seems to enjoy the I Joke of being In Jail without being ' legallv a prisoner. Nicholas G Morgan, assistant coun ty attorney, said yesterday that in ; vestigations conducted so far in the ! second confession of Mrs Ekman in I which Anderson is implicated, had not developed facts sufficiently to Jusil I f any complaint against Anderson or I even his retention. oo TURN TO GOVERNMENT Provo, Aug. 1 Active steps are being taken by Jesse Knight.

Charles Probst, coroner's physician to publish this fact and warn parents against let ting children wear play costumes with ONE-THIRD PAID TO STATES BY FORESTS A circular just issu d by the for est service calls attention to the va rious laws under which more than al third of all national forest receipts! go to the benefit of the states in which the forests are situated, for' schools and roads. In 1912 the amount of money thus made available for state purposes totaled about $750,000. The report does not show the amounts due from the receipts of the fiscal year which closed June 30. 1913. Including these, the states' share of national forest funds since the laws were passed has aggregated over $3,000,000. These facts are set forth, accord ing to the forest service, because a popular impression still exists that j all money received by the govern i ment from timber sales, grazing fees, water power permits, etc.. Is perma nently taken out of the states where It is paid and goes into the national treasury to meet the general expenses of the government. This idea is said I to prevail, to some extent, even; among actual forest users in the na- i tional forest states, where the dlvl-j slon of receipts with the states haa been going on for years. The circular states that part of the ! gross receipts of the national forests was first made available lor schools i and roads when the agricultural ap propriation act of June 30. 1906. di- rected the secretary of the treasury to pay over to the state or territory j In which any forest reserve was situ ated. 10 per cent of all money re ceived during the fisral year from such reserve. The money was to be expended by the state or territorial i legislature for the benefit of public i schools and roads in ihe counties in which the forest reserve lay. This legislation was recommended by the forest service because of the recog nized burdfn .uiposed locally where national forests operate to prevent i much land from becoming taxable In 1908 the amount to be paid to the stales was Increased to 25 per I cent and a proviso of the earlier act that no more should be paid to a 'county than 40 per cent of Its total income from other sources was elimi nated Since this proviso was re moved, some of the counties' receipts ; j from national forest lands have equalled their Income from all other sources. In August, 1912. the agricultural appropriation act for the year made available an additional 10 per cent of the money received from national forests to build and maintain roads and trails within national forests lor the benefit of the public, in the states from which these proceeds are de-1 rived This 10 per cent "road Item." as It is called. Is expended by the sec retarv of agriculture, who may, ac cording to the act. "whenever prac ticable In the construction and main tenance of such roads, secure the eo-operailon or aid of the proper sta;e or territorial authorities In the fur therance of anv system of highways of which such roads may be made a I part " The total amount cxpendeu under this provision from the re eclpts of the fiscal year 1912 Is $207. 295. This was apportioned among the states as follows: " Alaska. M.675; ona, IS4.645; Arkansas. J2.283 California. '124.821; Colorado. 21 508; Klurida (98 ; Ida ho. 128.809 Kansas. M Vl .

Under the new law Judge Howell could pronounce only inder mlnato sentences, but he will recom mend to the state board of pardons that they be kept in prison for life Realizing the desperate character ot his prisoners. Sheriff T A OeVine took no chances of a possible escape, the three men being surrounded by deputies Irom the sheriff's office and, police officers during their removal to and from the court room on the third floor of the county building. All were handcuffed except during the court proceedings Having previously entered a plea of guilty to the one charge of robbery, js arranged by District Attorney Fohn C, Davis, the actual time con sumed by the final hearing was brief. Displaying the same braado which has characterized their manner since the attempted holdup' ' the busi ness district on July 21. the bandits showed not the slightest trace of weakening, while McSwIggfn and Maxwell evidenced a desire to bully one of the witnesses Maxwell and McSwiggin. who were! handcuffed together, joked regarding' the sentence while on the way from the courtroom back to the jail on the first floor of the building. They declared that the "life" rccommenda tion was merely for the benefit of the citizens assembled and that they would be released before many years. ROBBED BY TWO HIGHWAYMEN Salt Ike. Aug 2 F.
