prevent the destruction Of the forests

W. w. Woolley secured comics.
sion from Mrs. Lloyd Carlton, In
which she told Of the murder Of her
father, Peter Nestle, near Farris. in
this (Hubbard) county. on March ST.,
by her husband, Lloyd Carlton. .
When the couple were brought to
Park Rapids and confined in the coun-
ty jail they put on bold front and
appeared to be little concerned over
the situation. but the long confinement
and separation has broken their spirit
and finally Mrs. Carlton gave way I'M
der the persistent questioning Of the
county attorney.
Not only has this confession been
secured. but also confession Of guilt
on the part Of Mrs. Carlton in a line
written to her husband on a nevspa.
per, which she told the jailor she had
read and wished her husband to read.

were trying to carry en- correspond

follows:
! state upon my honor that upon the
31st day Of March. 1911, my father,
Peter Nestle, said to my husband,
Lloyd Carlton, and myself during q
quarrel We were having. that he would
kill us both, and that he had in his
hands at the time pick or grub hoe,
and that when he tried to strike Lloyd
or me. my husband picked up the axe
and struck my father, and he fell
down dead. We then hitched up one
OF the horses and took him to the
woods nearby, and piled brush on him,
as we were excited and thought we
had to hide him, and we had nothing
to do with burying his body. My hus-
band, some few days after the time he
killed him, went down and burned
the brush. saw it all, but took no
hand in that part Of it. +.-
l further state, that all former
statements made by me as to my faith
ers taking our money were not true,
and all money belonging to my father
and taken by us has been given back
to my mother. s-5 49,. 3

After securing this confession Coun-
ty Attorney Woolley went to Cartons
cell and confronted him with the con-
fession. Carlton was angered at first
and blamed his wife for giving in, but
before the county attorney had left he
practically verified all the statements
she had made. The trial of the couple
has been set for July s. !.

Prior to 1so7.-Lower Rates For
Special occa.
5s sions.

Minneapolis. - All s&en railroads
operating In Minnesota, beginning
with July |, must charge passengers
on the basis of three cents a mile,
the rate that was charged prior to
May %. 1907, whom the two.cent fare
law went into e4tect. This is man.
datory. by order of Judge Walter H.
Sanborn, Of the limited States circuit
court in his decision declaring the
two-cent fare law void. Even il the
roads were satisfied with q two-cent
rate, they must now base their tariffs
on three. or lay themselves liable to
contempt Of court.
Judge Sanborn. it has been ex.
planned. is not partial to the three.
cent rate. His order to go back to
the three-cent basis is really automat-
tc.. On the merits Of the case he de.
cided that the two-cent law is void,
and necessarily it would be illegal for
the roads to keep on doing business
under the provisions of that law,
Therefore, he merely ordered that
everything having to do with the
workings Of that void law, be wiped
out and that the roads go back to the
old order Of things.
Rate Clerks Are Busy.
Large forces Of clerks in all the
general o1aces Of the roads operating
In Minnesota have been busy reyis.
Ing the passenger tariffs on the old
three-cent basis ever since Judge San
born handed down his decision. A
passenger tariff ia complicated
thing. Experts are required to
change old ones or to make new ones.
A change at one station affects near.
~ every other station on the system
and the joint rates on other systems.
In the present case, the passenger
rate between every station in Mime
sofa and every other station in Min
nesota had to be revised
Mileage Books Unchanged.
Mileage books will be affected it,
tie by the change. Two thousand
mile books have been selling for $50
with a rebate of $3.50 on return Of
the cover. Hereafter tho books will
be sold for $40 straight, but with a
wider Interchange value.
It is probable that under the high.
or rate the passenger associations will
be quicker to grant reduced rates for
conventions and other events which
attract large numbers of travellers.
While the basis for passenger fares
IL three cents a mile, that does not
prevent the roads or any road from
making lower rates for special occa-
sions, IT,; done under interstate com.
