lis now suffering life imprisonment. and
 Mrs Wright's knowledge Of her hus- bands habits will materially aid Sher- if Storrs in effecting his capture, and
 her knowledge Of the case will also aid MT Hayes attorneys, Messrs. Powers,
 Straup & Ligpman, in showing MT
 Hayes innocence so clearly that he
 will be released.
 Mrs. Wright is a good looking wo-
 man Of about 2S years, and is thor
 Oughly convinced of her husbands guilt. She says that when he came to i their place at West Jordan, where they lived in 1895, with the Hayes team and
 wagon, few days after the murder, that he had footed settlers cabin near Goshen to account for the posses sion of the team, and she, knowing of his predilection for stealing, believed it to be true. He had previous to this fitted up a cabin near the mouth of Spanish Fork canyon, where he in tended to spend the wir'snr with his family, and on the 18th of February, a day or two after the evidence showed
 
 committed, he brought the Hayes team and the household effects missing from the Hayes ranch to the cabin, and was assisted by Mr. T. J. Williams, owner of the cabin, in unloading the stuff. MT. Williams is now a deputy sheriff and remembers the fa-t connected with unloading the Hayes goods, which Wright, or Weeks, as he was known in Utah county, said he had brought from his ranch in Kamas
 When Wright and his wife stared out from West Jordan for their new home. they stopped over night with William Beckstead at South Jordan, and Wright told him he was going to Rush valley, where he had traded for ranch, and traded wagons with Mr Beckstead, thus getting rid Of the team from MT. Beckstead to use on his ranch, he said, and when he reached the Point of tho Mountain he shot the Hayes team. Mrs. Wright remembers the spot and describes how the horses were shot
 They went to the cabin at Spanish Fork and when the body of young Hayes was discovered MT Metcalf, a n8ighToor, brought a paper containing an account of the discovery of the body to the Wright cabin and read it. Wright turned Ieathly pale and was very sick from nervous prostration for several weeks. From what he said and did during his illness Mrs. Wright be- came satisfied that he had killed the boys and also became afraid Of him, l fearing he would take her life. Shortly afterward he was arretsed for stealing | the Dunyon cattle and left Utah, going | to Colorado.
 MS. Virgin went to her mother in | New York, where she was af.erward | located by Sheriff Storrs. She has little 5-year-cld daughter. who is an exceptionally bright child. They will i make their home with the family of Sheriff Storrs for some time.
 Mrs. Storrs accompanied her hUs- band east, and both she and MT. Storrs had a very pleasant trip considering the season of the year. The sheriff would have much preferred that the fact of Mrs. Wrights coming to Utah should not have been m1de known, but now that the press has published the news he is Of the oTinion that the ( more publicity that is given to the ,1ime for which Wright is wanted the greater chances there will be Of his apprehension, and he will make great , 1T efforts than ever to capture the riminal.
 In connection with Mrs. Wright's ,vidence there are stacks of affidavfts rom various Utah county people Ob- aimed by Sheriff Storrs which vii be ubmit;ed to the pardoning board with he application for the pardon Of Hayes
