WAS A STRAGeTlC POINT
And the Government May Turn Down Butcher
 Weyler For Revenge

Madrid Sept. 10.-The minister of war has wired Capt.-Gen. Weyler asking for an explanation regarding the capture by the insurgents of Victoria de las Tunas, province of Santiago de Cuba, which is defended by seven forts, having two Krupp guns among their armament
 It is stated here that the object of the insurgents is to establish their govern ment there and then obtain the recogni- ton of their belligerency ~ the United States. A Spanish expedition will be or ganized to recapture Victoria de las Tunas.
 The newspapers of this city, comment ing upon the capture of Victoria de las Tunas, condemn Capt.-Gen. WeyIer. The ImparciaI says that Gen. JovsIar was removed from his command for a similar disa ster in 1876. It is pointed out that the stragetic position of Victoria de las Tunas is important. The government has decided to act vigorously, and to im- mediately dispatch further reinforce ments to Cuba If that is necessary.

Some Doubt Exists

Chicago, Sept. 10.-There was consid- erable progress in the Luetgert trial to- day, particularly during the afternoon session. The day was devoted to th= hearing of expert testimony. It was shown that the matter collected in the crevasses of the pocket knife given by th5i alleged murderer to his former sweetheart, Mrs. Feldt, on the evening of his arrest, consisted of blood and par ticles of muscular tissues. One fact the state continuously attempted to estab- fish, namely, that the particles of bones flesh and organic matter taken from the vat and connecting sluice, had at one time been portions of a human body, but though their experts readily as- scented to th= theory that they resembled the flesh and bone of an human animal they were ready to declare upon cross examination that they bore an equal resemblance to tha flesh and bone of any other animal. Three other experts who testified were Prof. Mark Delfontaine, teacher of chemistry in a Chicago high school; Prof. Walt=r S. Haines, profes- sor of history in the Rush Medical col 1ege and George Vincent Bailey, oste- geologist of the Field Columbian Mu- scum.

 The gun went off and Bob said, with many an adjective, 'Ive missed him. !" He loaded up again and blazed away, and stilf he declared he saw the eyes. None of the other parties could see the first symptoms of eyes, neither could they hear MT. Coon rustling among the trees. Bob declared that he could. and he shot once more, but the "eyes" were sill there.
 He is a pretty good shot, and firing three times at so large an animal as a coon made him think; so he walked over to the tree where he saw the coon and took a good look, and then discovered that he had been shooting at two stars that were peeping from between the limbs of the tree

 Cotton fabrics have improved their position in view of increased demand and cheaper raw material There has been falling off in general trade in portions of Texas, due in part to the un- willingness of planters to sell cotton at its present price. but at central west ern points, notably Chicago and St. Louis, business has been quite active Western iron and steel mills are prac- tically independent of buyers for the re- mainder of the calendar year.

San Francisco catcher made a strong
protest against the decision, and after
ten minutes wrangling the visitors
finally resumed the game.
In the ninth, with the score 9 to S
against them, the visitors 'got onto
Hughes and hit him out for three sin
giles, triple and home run, netting
them four runs and a good lead.
In the last half Nethercott led off
with two-bagger, and Pitt was hit
by the pitcher. Dennie hit for two
bases, scoring "Old Hoss." and Hen
essey's forced hit scored Pitt. Hughes
hot single scored Dennie, and tied the
score. The next two men We're put out
in order
The noise was something terrific at
this stage of the game Two-thirds of
the crowd We're on their feet making
ing the home boys.
In the tenth inning the Athletic boys
went out in order. Walker hit to third
for the home team and beat the ball to
first. Nethercott was given life on
balls, advancing Walker to second. De-
vine hit to Spellman, and the latter
becoming ratified attempted to touch
third base and then threw high to
second.
The umpire decided that Spellman
had not touched the third bag. and al
lowed Walker-whO had crossed the
plate-to score the winning run.
Jim Mcdonald umpired the game, and
barring two decisions on the home
plate, he did very clever work. His
decisions on the plate We're question
able, but they really cut no figure, as
one was in favor of one side, and the
other vice versa. Following is the
score:
