Traces o-f arsenic are said to have been found in all of the bod ies. The police also found that life insurance i:ad been paid to Mrs. Kel- lehor after the death of each mem ber of the family. It is understood that the case of the state is ba-ed on the claim that* Mrs. Kellehor was the person who had exclusive opportunity to admin ister the jKilson, and that she was the only person to benefit in a pecu niary sense from the death of those who had died. it is the claim of | the police that during the brief ill ness of eaoch <ne Mrs. Kellehor em ployed no nurse and had only occa sional assistance from friends and neighbors. Since her confinement in jail Mrs. Kellehor has been under observation for the purpose cf determining her mental capacity. Before the inquiry into the supposed homicides was started two physicians were appoint ed to study Mrs. Kellehor. They have had a number of interviews with her but she has baffled them by her dex trous wit. Reports of the activity of the po lice in the investigation of the deaths of her children came to Mrs. Kelle- hor’s ears about two months ago. The prisoner is said to have become very nervous and excited. The phy sicians who had been observing her noted so serious a nervous weakening that they advised the sheriff to give her employment in the sewing room. If she were pot employed the doc tors said a collapse was inevitable. But despite repeated questioning the woman has made no admissions as to the deaths of her children. Charles A. Phipps.

Although Wells has maintained his innocence from the first, he gave In yesterday and confessed to the sheriff his part in the affair. This unexpected development followed a little take between Sheriff Stevens, Wells, and John H. Stevenson, attor ney for the young culprit, in which the officer showed the two conclus ively that there was no chance of Wells evading the charge in view of the array of evidence held against him. Wells admitted that the proof was too strong for the consistent de nial and his counsel then advised hin to enter a plea of guilty and throw himself upon the mercy of the court Wells did so. first making an affi davit that will enable Sheriff Stev ens to recover 32400 of the stolen money, this amount being in the package recovered at Ogden and held up by the postal authorities until it could be formally Identified as part of the currency stolen from the East bank.
