Telluride. Colo. May 13-Dist. Judge
Shackeford yesterday overruled the
plea In abatement made by Steve
Adams attorneys. which was made fol
the purpose of having quashed the
indictment against Adams charging
him with the murder of Arthur Col

either information or Indictment was
the correct method OF procedure. 1t
is expected that Adams will appear in
court today to plead, when the motion
for change of venue, argued at Gunni-

The prosecution intimates that because
of the absence of important witnesses
for tho state, Adams will not be tried

Kane County Youth Yields to His
Conscience and Con-
feSSes.
TELLS STORY OF THE MURDER
Says He Lircd Mary Stcavens to Lone
~ Ravine, Shot Her Four Times
And Buried the Body.
lspeclal 10 the oNewg.ol


Kanab. Utah, May 1S.--Alvin r. Hea-
ton, Jr., has confessed to the murder
of Mary Steavens, two miles out OF Or
dervillo, April 90. The confession has
stirred the entire county. owing 10
the prominence of the young man AMI
the high standing of his family in tho
southern portion of the state the con-
munity. which had regarded the young
man innocent of the terrible crime.
There We're few who believed that the
clues OF the officers were correctly fol-
lowed
According to Heatons confession he
lured the girl to lonely spot in d
ravine about two miles from Ordelvllle.
Kane county. Having reached a spot
he considered safe one. he fired four
shots into the girls back and then
dragged her body to hiding place.
The girl was unusually large, weighing
about 200 pounds He covered her dead
body with rocks and earth, but in his
haste he permitted a bit Of bright rib
bon, a portion OF her hat, to remain
uncovered. The blood which literally
poured from her wounds, soaked into
the sand and left big pools to mark tho
spot OF the murder. These he covered
with sand. but soon after the blood
worked its way through to the surface
and left mute, but convincing evidence
of the crime. This done, Heaton hur-
ried to his horne.
SEARCH FOR GIRL.
Searching parties were organized as
soon as the girls prolonged absence
alarmed her parents. Every portion of
the country was carefully secuted by
trained and unframed men. The first
clue We're some foot prints They were
clearly those of man and a woman
They later proved to be Heaton's and
the girls. There was only one set OF
footprints returning from the direction
in which the others had gone. The
footprints led the party to the spot in
the dense country where the crime
was committed. The party soon saw
the blood-soaked sand and then the
bit of ribbon. Soon the rocks and earth
had been removed from the body of
the girl and the nature of her end was
apparent.
Following the only clue at that time
found, officers found that the footprints
We're fitted by the shoes worn by
Heaton, He was arrested and charged
with the crime. He protested his inno-
cence, but this morning broke down and
completely confessed.
Since his early childhood, Alvin Hea-
ton has been considered a youth above
reproach. His family is prominent in
this end of the state and is highly re
spected. Having been completely brok-
en- down by the weight OF his crime
upon him, today he is in danger Of
physical collapse. He maintained his
innocence until this morning without
any visible sign Of his guilt His pro-
lesson seemed to assure his friends
that a mistake had been made in chaig-
ing him with the murder. To them
as 1t IS to his parents and relatives,
the confession has proven n heavy
blow Today lie is In cell at the county
Jail. He is weak and completely
broken down.
