State Is Nearly Through and the Defense
May Begin Tomorrow.
Chicago, Sept. 13.-Five bones from the
Luetgert sausage vat were identified
Saturday as parts of human body and
were added to the chain Of circumstances
by which the prosecution hopes to prove
that Luetgert first killed his wife and
then boiled her body in caustic potash
solution. In identifying bones for the
state Professor G.. v. Bailey, expert
PSYCHOLOGIST, said: This looks like the
head Of rib on the left side. 1t Is
about the size of a third rib in a wom-
an. This Is a second phalanx frsm the
fourth toe Of the right foot Of homo
l mean s.nar cdu.t. This bone is
portion of head of humerus, which
Is the big, heavy bone In the forearm
joining it with the scapula."
Professor r. A. Haines, another ex-
pert, said There Is no mistake about
that being human rib. 1 can identify
1t by the indentation, the shape and the
size. This bone is the end of &metacar-
pal bone Of the human hand. 1t comes
from the second finger where the joint
attaches to the hand" But in spite of all
this the defense, so 1t is stated, will pro-
duce expert witnesses who will swear
that these bones are not necessarily hui
man, and that there can very easily be
mistake about it,
The defense has also been experiment.
ing on human bodies, the latest being
that of woman; the place the vat In
Luetgerts factory In which the state
says Mrs. Luetgert was boiled, and the
conditions exactly the same as those un-
der which she was boiled. So far as
any Information can be obtained this ex-
pertinent disproves the whole of the
states theory Of this part of the alleged
crime. The state expect TO get through
today, and IL the defense does not cross
examine at very great length II may be-
gin its testimony tomorrow.

received the corporations letter asking
him to withdraw his resignation he had
undertaken to perform the coming year
certain work which, after learning the
judgment of the corporation on the SUBJ

with the duties Of the presidency. I
therefore felt obliged at first to adhere
to my resignation. But being now free
to give to the university my undivided
