today and denied that Cleo Oobln
hImi charged Willi the murder nf
Sprague had .anything direct to do
with either tho murder of tipnigue
or the theft of $13 from big locttett.
The. motive of the murder waa left
unexplained.
The two women arrested with Talt
and tlobln were called first to the
stand. The state tested Its ca; at
noon. Court official predict tbu
cast' will go to tho Jur some tllipi
tomorrow.
Talt explained lliat ihe signed state-
ment made by him should In several
placet have read "I did it" Instead of
"we did It." After several changes

j again confessed to the Hgnlng of It.
"Slate your age" he was asked.
"I am 21 this April." ho replied.
Talt said It was he who asked
Sprague to come lo the farm houso
u hern he was murdered.
"Was UuspI1 Spragut' hit on the
head with a six-shooter that night?'
the attorney asked.
"Me Wds."
"Who dlt it?"
"1 did." Then continuing: Talt
said
"f hit him with the butt of the
pistol. I held it by the barrel.
Sprague fell to tho floor and I got a
towel and tied It around his head."
"Was ho robbed that night?" Talt
wan asked.
"Ves" ho replied. "Thirteen dol-
larn was taken from blm I took It.
I told CIco to set hold of him. I
then commanded him to d-lve ihe
car. It was mo who tied Spraguo up
and who rolled him Into tho river"
Talt said that Oobln received $7
of Ihe money taken from SpragU".
It was proved on cross examination
that tJobln defrayed the trip to I.Tw-
ton from I'crrytown ' Toxas. The
two women are affinities of Talt and

of the state. The men admitted that
