RED OAK, Ia, Sept. st was
almost certain today that Lyn
George Kelly, itinerant unordain-
ed minister, would go to trial
here tomorrow charged with the
murder of Lena Stillinger and
seven Others" committed at VII
lisca June 10, 1912.
The murders were committed
five years ago as the eight per-
sons were asleep in the Joe Moore
home. The Stillinger girls had
been spending the week with the
Moores. The murderer used an
ak, which was found near the
Moore home.
Confessional Repudiated.
What effect the alleged con-
fession of Kelly will have on the
trial is problematical. The state
says Kelly confessed last Friday
that he slew the eight persons in
answer to a command from a
"shadow-the voice of Cod" to
"slay utterly" and that the sign
ed confession would be read at
the trial.
The defense, headed by Judge
A. l.. Sutton, said the confession
the state alleges it has will be re-
pudiated.
Kelly himself had nothing to
say today in his cell at the county
Jail in Logan.
His wife today told the United
Press that her husband still in
sisted he did not remember max
ing a confession and that he was
innocent of the crimes charged.
Nervous.
Kelly is still in a nervous con-
dition following the all-night
grilling by state agents Friday,
but announced himself as anxious
for the beginning of the trial. All
Iowa today was anxiously await
ing the beginning of the trial,
which is expected to solve one
of the country's most amazing
murder mysteries.
The case, which has caused
considerable bad blood" between
citizens and state officials, 1t was
predicted by both sides today
