MURDERER OF SALT
LAKE MAN TAKEN
STREET CAR CONDUCTOR AND
MAID OF FAus HOUSEHOLD
CHARGED WITH MURDER
Frank Miller Is being Sought BY The
Police and II Is Believed That
He is the Man Who Fired
the Fatal Shot

Salt Lake-Gilbert l.. Brighton, 90
years of age, street car conductor, is
the murderer of Charles A. Faus.
This Is the belief expressed by Chief
of Police Joseph Il. Burbidge and Chief
of Detectives Riley NJ. Beckstead. The
police believe that Brighton will con-
fess To the murder as he did to par
ticlpatlon in the attempted robbery. A
search Is being made for the revolver
with which Mr.. Faus was killed. Brigh-
ton Is held In the state prison and a
nationwide search is being made for
Frank Miller, 30 years of age, who
Brighton says was the man who fired
the shot.
Chief Beckstead, who brought about
Brighton's arrest, said that Angelene
Wacnster, the maid who planned the
robbery, had confessed that when
Brighton came to the back door on
the night of the tragedy he wore his
army overcoat. The man who shot
Mr.. Faus had on an army overcoat.
The police say that there was no rea-
son why the men should change coats
while going from the back to the front.
Mrs, Faus stated that the taller of
the two bandits shot her husband.
Brighton is almost six feet in height.
Brighton said that his companion was
taller than he The police say that
this Is highly improbable and that
Brighton is the man who fred the
shot, according to their belief
The maid admitted TINT she recog.
niged Brlghton's voice when he an.
swcred Mrs Faus. although both men
were masked. Miss Wacaster said
that the man who spoke was the man
who fired the fatal shot. Although the
] girl asserted that she did not think
Brighton was the guilty man, the po-
lice say that they believe that she
knows that he il the murderer and
that she merely desires to shield him
as much as possible.
When Chief Beckstead asked the
girl why she had arranged the rob.
berry she said: II needed fifty dollars"
Brighton was arrested by Chief Of
Detectives Riley NJ. Beckstead and
Detectives Bert Seager, Dick Edding
ton, Lester Wire and Jack Egbert. He
confessed at once to participation In
the holdup Friday night ut the Faus
home.
He placed all the blame on the Wa
caster girl. He said that he had talk,
ed TO her on the streetcars and that
she had suggested that he get com.
panion and rob the Faus home. He
declared that the girl had said that
Mrs. Faus kept large quantity of
jewelry and money in the house
lie said that he found man who
agreed to take part In the holdup, He
declared that this companion, whose
name he gave rs Frank Miller, was
the one who lost his nerve and fired
at Mr. Faus. He asserted that he
knew this man only slightly and that
he had fled from the town.
Following his confession, Brighton
was rushed to the state prison for
safe keeping, as threats of n lynching
had reached the ears of the police.
Remarks made by Brighton the day
preceding his arrest came to the ears
OF Chief Beckstead and led to his
arrest.
