ADMITS HIS Guilt
st. Louis Man Confesses He
Killed His Sweetheart.
All But Jurymen and Witnesses
Barred From Trial.

st. Louis, Jan. 3.-Albert Ellis, 81
years old, went to trial in circuit
court today charged with murder in
the first degree in CONNECTION with the
death of Edna Ellis, IS, his former
sweetheart, whose mutilated body was
found in a vacant lot near her home
here on the morning of November
last
The girls throat had been cut, and
deep gashes in her hands indicated TO
the police she had struggled with her
assailant for possession of the weapon
with which she was killed.
Ellis in an alleged signed confes-
sion given out by the police two days
after the murder was discovered,
kill his former sweetheart who had
broken. off their engagement when he
was convinced he could not effect a
reconciliation.
According to the purported confess
sion, he lay in wait for Miss Ellis
and attacked. her with a razor. He had
been arrested on complaint of Mrs
Marie Ellis, mother of the slain girl
who was said to have told the police
that Ellis threatened her daughter
when she refused to accept his ad-
vances after they quarreled.
Indications were that the defense
might attempt to exclude the alleged
confession from testimony, on the
ground that it was obtained thru
coercion.
A venire of more than zoo men was
ernpaneHed for the trial and it was
not expected the taking of testimony
would begin before Thursday, the in

WOULD AVOID DEADLOCK
North Dakota Legislature Split Even
On n. T.. L.. Program.

Bismarck, Jan. AT a conference
last night of members of the indie
pendent faction of the North Dakota
legislature it was decided to ask
the cooperation of the Nonpartisan
League members at the session which
starts Tuesday.
A comnnittee of two was appointed
to confer with league members. The
independents are for a fair break
on chafrmanships and important com,
mittees and a chance for an equal
part in legislative matters.
This harmony program, it was
pointed out, would be needed to en-
act important legislation as the OPP
posing forces otherwise would be
deadlocked inasmuch as the Nonpar-
tisans control the senate by one vote
and the independents have a small
majority in the house. Speaking UNI
officially, Howard Wood, ieutena an
governor and presiding officer of the
senate, said last night the NonPaf-
tisans would be in favor of such CO.
operation if the independents Wlll
make an offer to divide eha1rmanshlps
and important posts in the house.
