though millions Of glasses Of Coca-Cola
are drunk every year. no Coca-Cola

The Coca-Cola habit is analogous to

slayer Of Stephen Wood Breaks
Down on Way to Scene Of Crime
and Makes Confession.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Montrose. Colo-Frank Saunders,
thirty, has confessed to Sheriff M. A.
Galloway and Coroner ]. @. Allen that
he killed his brother-in-law, Stephen
Wood. when the latter was shot in the
back at the ranch home of his parents,
five miles from Naturita. The con-
fession was made after Saunders had
been put through grilling examine
ton before the coroner's jury at
Nucla by Deputy District Attorney D.
H. Hughes.
Saunders said Wood was respon-
sible for the theft of several of his
horses last year and also intimated
that family quarrels. resulting from
the marriage Of Saunders to Woods
sister. was partly responsible.
Sheriff Galloway started with the
prisoner for Montrose. but when with
In five miles of Placerville, the
nearest railroad station, the car
broke down and they were compelled
to walk to Placerville and stay there
all night.
Saunders said another person was
with him on the night Of the shooting,
but refused to give any name. Tracks
Of two men and two horses were dis
covered, and seven shots were fired
as evidenced by empty cartridges.
One was from rifle and this corre-
sponded to the bullet taken from
Woods body. The others were from
q revolver.
It is believed that Saunders wife.
who was at her parents home. knew
OF the shooting. When told OF her
husbands arrest and confession, she
became hysterical.
