Wreck at Albany on the L. e. & w.

Special to the indianapolis Journal.
MUNCIE, Ind, June Sat Albany, eight
miles east of this city, tonight, west-bound
local freight No. 121 was run into by
through freight No. 123 on the Lake Erie
& Western road, and a dozen cars demol-
ished. The trains were both coming west
and the local left dozen cars on the rear
of the train standing at the depot, on a re-
verse curve, while some freight was being
unloaded, and the engine doing switch
work half mile down the track. The mo-
gul engine crashed through the caboose, de-
railing five cars, and the rest broke away
from the wreck and ran down the steep
grade to the engine and front part of the
train, making another collision that deraied
several cars. The engine buried in the ca
boose set fire to the wreck. Engineer Nc
Kirt and his fireman jumped and were not
injured. Both trains had orders to pass an
east-bound train at the next station, Desc
TIA. The track will be blocked for ten hours
or more.

language used by tho editors Of the Nil.

Mr.. Robert G. Houston Is accused Of tax

Human Body Destroyed to Secure Evil

Chicago, Aug. 9.-The experiment Of
destroying a human body by the use
of crude potash was successfully car

by scientific experts. The body was
destroyed in two hours, with the ex-
ception Of few small splinters Of bone.
OF the fleshy substance only small
quantity of fluid, about the consistency
of molasses, remained.
The experiment was made under the
orders of the prosecution in the case
Of Adolph Luetgert, the rich sausage
manufacturer. who is charged with
numbering his wife and disposing of
her body in the watts at his factory.
The prosecutions theory has been that
Luetgert placed the body Of his wife
In solution of crude potash and cold
water, raised the solution to boiling
point and destroyed all traces of his
alleged crime. A few small bones were
said to have been found in a vat in
the factory.
The attorneys for the state say they
are entirely satisfied with the test, and
declare that they believe it will 60 far
