HUMAN OR ANIMAL ?
The Question About the Flesh Found in Luet.
gert's Vat.

Chicago, Sept. 9.-In the Luetgert
trial this morning the first witness
called was H. F. Kruger, the druggist
who sold WatChman Frank Bialk the
medicine which Luetgert ordered his
empioye to purchase. The testimony
cOrroborated the statement which was
for the purpose of showing the hsur
the alleged murder is supposed to have
been committed. The second witness
was DR.. Charles Gibson, chemical ex-
pert, who was placed on the stand for
redirect examination in regard to his
analysis of the fleshly substance and
slime removed from the vat where the
state is attempting to prove that the
wife murder was committed.
Professor Gibson testified that the
flesh was as similar to that of an ami
mai as 1t was to that of a human. Pro-
fessor Mark Delfontalne, a Swiss
chemist, testified that the bones gath
cred from the refuse pile where the
ashes of the furnaces were said to

Later Particulars of the Cannon
Ball Collision in
Kansas.
Mr.. BRYAN WAS TIE HERO.
The Wrecked Trains Were the Fastest in
the Service Fifteen Injured
Ones May Die.

Emporia, Kan. Sept. 9.-Last nights
head-end collision on the Atchlson
Topeka and Santa Fe was the worst
disaster that has occurred on that sys-
tenn in many years. Ten people were
killed outright or soon died of inju-
ries and fifteen others were more or
less seriously injured. One or two of
the injured may succcmb. That the
wreck did not result more seriously
seems miraculous. A miscarriage of
orders caused the wreck. William j.
Bryan, who was a passenger on one of
the trains, escaped uninjured and
aided materially in rescuing the un-
fortunates and alIeviating their suf-
ferings.
The wrecked trains were the fastest
in the service the fast mail, east
bound, and the California and Mexico
express, west bound. Each was run
nlng at the rate of 40 miles an hour or
more. The wreck occurred at Z 80
O'clock last evening, three miles east
of Emporia, on small culvert that
crossed dry stream.
From the passengers it was learned
that Mr.. Bryan was the first person to
rush to the assistance of the victims
and he assisted to carry the frat body
recovered, and that so long as there
was any necessity he was foremost in
the wreck. Mr.. Bryan, accompanied
by Topeka newspaper man., was in
the smoking coach of the westbound
train discussing the days events at
Burlingame when they heard the
crash and the explosion, Before they
could make move the car was pushed
forward with tremendous force aud it
seemed to toss in the debris like
crippled ship at sea. The car finally
stopped, and as it did so they began
to see fire from below. The two men
jumped out the same window without
hats or baggage and escaped with
out a scratch,

fate was determined this morning

The Judge sentenced Reid to three

Reld's crime is familiar to most
newspaper readers. He shot and
killed L. w. Halstead, a circus en-
ploye, at the entrance to the tent.
Mrs. Reid had informed her husband
that Halstead had insulted her the
same afternoon at the circus. The
trial was begun Monday morning and

Asheville. N. c., Sept. GO, r. Mil
ler of this city has begun suit for the
possession Of his right leg. He alleges
that it was afflicted with bene scrofula
and was cut off five years ago by DR..
]. A. Burroughs. Permission was
given by the plaintiff to the physician
to retain the leg for time for profess
slonal study, the case being novel
and interesting one, but it was, so the
plaintiff alleges, to be returned after
reasonable time so that as a faithful
and important member of his body up
to the time of amputation it might be
given honorable burial.
The plaintiff further alleges that
the demand for his leg has been re-
fused and that he has been denied the
comfort of having it decentIy inferred.
He therefore wants the leg or $500.

The United Mine Workers Can't See Their
Way Clear.
Columbus, o., Sept 9.-The national
convention of United Mine Workers
has struck snag. Among the dele
gates has grown the feeling that even
were the strike settled, Ohio and
Pennsylvania would be the benefi-
Charles. There are men of this belief
in Illinois, Indiana, Ohio and West
Virginia, the two first states being
practically unanimous. District Pres
ident knight and Secretary Kennedy
of Illinois believe settlement On the
basis proposed would adjust matters
in Pennsylvania, Ohio and eastern
Illinois, but would have little or no ef-
feot in northern Illinois. These men
are in favor of a continuance of the
strike.
The delegates from Illinois and In
diana, so far as can be learned, as the
session is being held with closed doors,
are acting in harmony.

PRESIDENT ISAAC
RESIGNS HIS POST.
The Head of the Board of Educa-
cation Will Step
Out.
DOES NOT GIVE HIS REASONS.
Il Would Rather Not Express Myself" he
Says-A Valuable Man-Coun-
oils Meeting.

The city council held a regular meet
ing yesterday. The previous session
of the council had about exhausted all
the business which Clerk Bodet had
to offer for the consideration of the
clty fathers, and yesterdays session
was very short one.
The only matter of interest which
came before the body was the resigna-
tion of Mr.. M. Isaac as president of
the Board of Education. Mr.. Isaac's
resignation was unexpected, and
caused some surprise,
He has served in the capacity of pres
ldent of the board since the death of
Mr.. D. Glauber. and has been a tire
less worker in the interest of the
schools. He has given personal atten-
tion to the various details of the school
work, and his withdra wal Will leave a
pldOe udEu 10 Hi.
The council received the resi- gna-
tion, and referred to the city clerk,
who was instructed to communicate
to Mr.. Isaac the regrets of the body,
and to ask him to reconsider his de-
termination.
Mr., Isaac was seen by a TIMES man
yesterday afternoon, and asked to ex-
press his reasons for resigning. Mr..
Isaac said that he would rather not be
quoted on the subject. He denied
that it was a pressure of business du-
ties that impelled him to retire. 81
would rather not be quoted" he said.
1t is not known whether or not the
president can be induced to recon-
slider. His work has been very valu-
able to the cause of education IN the
county, and his retirement is consid-
cred misfortune.
There were no other matters before
the council of any consequence, and
adjournment came in short order.
The following are the Official pro-
ceedings, which, it is unnecessary to
say, did not, in their preparation, keep
Clerk Bodet away from his dinner.

Paine, Murphy Il Co.'s Cotton Letter.
Savannah, Sept. 9.-While the spec
ulative demand for cotton continues
small, the market this morning has
shown a distinctively better under
tone than for some days past. Senti-
ment is undoubtedly undergoing a
gradual change from day to day as a
result of the numerous offerings of un-
favorable cotton crop advices being
receIYed especially from the central
and eastern portions of the cotton belt
and there is q growing impression
that an active speculation may de-
velop in cotton at almost any time.
