Woodland, Cal, Nov. 2. - The trial
for murder Of 8. G. Worden and the
i've A. r. u. men under arrest for
having caused the railroad accident
which resulted in the death Of Engi-
neer Clarke and four United States
soldiers during the recent strike, de-
veloped sensation today. G.. J.
stillwell, private detective, testified
to an alleged confession which was
produced In Worden's handwriting, in
which the prisoner on trial confessed
completely to the crime and implicated
the other men arrested. Worden in
his statement alleges that the train
wreckers were given the dynamite
which they used to shatter the bridge
by Compton, a member of the media-
ton committee. Worden also makes
the somewhat remarkable statement
that he hired O carriage and drove
with the train wreckers almost to the
bridge, but he left them and returned
to Sacramento before they began their
work of destruction.
