AS RELATED BY VACoS ON THE
WITNESS STAND.
Accused Man says Contos Confessed
to Being q Countefeiter

Still maintaining the appearance Of
extreme nervousness, Nick Vacos,
confessed slayer of John Contos. has
occupied the witness stand In his own
behalf since shortly after the conven-

TO the stand to testify regarding his
attempts 10 produce witnesses sought
by the defense. The sheriff states that
of four missing witnesses three are
known to be outside Of the state, and
that the fourth is dead
Sheriff Wilson has worked partlcu-
larly hard to induce one witness, now
residing at Baker City, Orc, to return
to Ogden that bis version of the story
might be secured but has met with
no success Acting on the advice Of
the district attorney, the sheriff has
guaranteed the mans expenses for the
entire trip. but the sought one remains
obdurate
The greater part of the forenoon seS-
sion was devoted to the hearing OF
Vacos' own account of his relations
with Contos, their trouble regarding
money matters and the subsequent
tragedy, Vacos maintains that he had
been brooding over Contos' threat to
put him out Of business and that he

unusually forgetful, but the details OF

LOTTERY PLAN
NOT APPROVED

Washington. Jan. 27.-That there

dent In the senate today when Sena-
tors Gore Of Oklahoma and Burkett
OF Nebraska, protested against the
adoption of this method In the sale
OF unallottcd lands in the Rosebud In
dian reservation in South Dakota.
The question was sprung by Mr..
Gore in consideration Of the Rose
bud land sale bill" Mr.. Gore offered
an amendment permitting applications
for the land to be made by registered
mail instead OF requiring personal
registration on the ground. In pre-
scnting the amendment Mr.. Gore said
the preset system was inconvenient
ad expensive and had the effect OF
cutting out the people who should be
permitted to enter the lands. Mr..
Burkett criticised the political system
In unmeasured terms. He told OF the
orowding of the trains and the insult

towns on the occasion of ncent ope-
ings which he said, had been marked
