Special Dispatch to THE CALL.

CHICAGO, Oct. 18.-The ninth week of
the famous Luetgert trial opened this
morning with the greatest crash ever
seen. Thousands of persons formed in
line before the Criminal Court building as
early as o'clock in the morning. 1t was
a wild mob ard there were numerous un-
pleasant collisions between the bailiffs and
the turbulent people.
Luetgert came into court smiling and
shook hands with q number of his friends.
States Attorney Deneen promptly began
his closing argument. He opened with a
defense of several of the leading witnesses
for the prosecution. After reviewing the
testimony of experts and other witnesses
Deneen continued: Gentlemen ther IS
absolutely no doubt in this case. Luetgert
killed his wife. All this talk that the
woman left her home while suffering from
an attack OF insanity is the veriest bosh,
cunningly devised and supported by per-
iured testimony"
Denesn critic zed Mary Siemmering in
cutting tones. He paid glowing tribute
to the memory of Mrs. Luetgert, whose
last days on earth, he said, were traught
with sorrow and anguish. Luetgert moved
giant frame. He paid the closest atten-
tion 10 the speech of the young States
Attorney, and the crowd in the vast
codrtroom lis ened with breathless atten-
tiOn.
Deneen continued to discuss the evil
dence for two and half hours. His voice
grew stronger as he proceeded. Just be-
ioIe the hands on the dial of the court
room clock indicated the hour of Deneen
rested his elbow on the rail before the
jurors. Running his eyes along each Of
!he twelv- men he said:
Gentlemen. il has been said that Assist
ant States Attorney McEwen did not ask
the infection OF the death penalty. That
is true. l do not think it is usually
within the nrovince of States Attorney
to ask a jury to return such a verdict.
But this CRIME is so heinous, so cruel, so
wanton, that l feel perfectly justified in
asking at your hands the extreme penalty
of The law in the case of Adolph l.. Luet-
CERT"
A buzz of comment ran through the
courtroom as the States attorney finished
his address, and was congratulated by a
few friends who sat near him. The Judge
granted an impromptu recess, and the
jury left the room. Luetgert got up and
went out also for drink of water. When

BERLIN, Oct. 1S.-The Neuste Mach
richten of Leipsic publishes report of a
conversation which Prince Bismarck is
said 10 have had with a recent visitor,
during the course of which the ex-
Chancellor is quoted as saying that the
Monroe doctrine is "uncommon insoIence
toward the rest of the world and does
violence TO the other American and
European states with American inter-
ests."
1t would be analogous, the Prince is
said to have added, if Russia and France
com bined to disaliow frontier changes in
Europe or the preponderng powers in
Asia. Russia and Great Britain arrogated
the right not 10 change the present status
without their consen'.
Continuing, Prince Bismarck is reported
to have remarked: Their great wealth,
due to the soil OF America, has led the
American legislators to overestimate their
own rights and underestimate the rights
of the other American and the European
states -

In ten minutes the jury had returned
and court was again ia order. Judge

he faced the jury, and. deliberately pick
ing up his notes on the cnarge he began
the reading.
AS Judge Tu;hill finished the reading he
looked up at the Jurors and said: Gentle
men, YOU may retire and consider YOUR
verdict"
Immediately there was an uproar in the
courtroom. People who had been sitting
al ose to their feet, and the shouts of bail
ifs ordering everv one to "sit down
availed nothing. The crowd surged ior-
ward and took up every inch OF space to
where the circular fence barred them from
the attorneys. Women tainted in the
crush, and their costumes and headgear
suffered. The crowd seemed to want to
getnear Luetgert. Ali wanted to see how
the big sausage-maker stood the hnal

hands Of the jury. While the tumult was
going on Baiiffs Connors and Wo!coti

The deputies at the door, fearing rush

which quickly choked the entrance. The
police on duty were incapable of handling
the crowd. Captain Hoffman OF the East
Chicago avenue station sent a patrol
wagon filled with officers to the scene on
"hurry-up' run. When the officers
reached the building they drew their
clubs and, aided py a score of Deputy
Sheriffs, quickly collected in the buildins
and drove the crowd back. The friends
OF Luetgert had by this time been re-an-
forced by about 200 other people from the
crowds. But they retreated after a few
vigorous applications of the clubs. The

TAX ON STOCKS.
Radical Change In the Revenue Features
of the Tariff Rlll.

Washington, July 6.-The provision
for tax on stock and bond transac-
tiOns In connection with the tariff bill,
which was agreed upon at the caucus
of Republican senators, was suggested
by Senator Lodge of Massachusetts
and grew out of n statement that with
the tea and beer provisions withdrawn
the tariff bill was likely to fall short
to the extent of 100000 in provid-
Ing sufficient revenue to meet the de
mands of the government. The sug-
gestiOn as made by Mr.. Lodge was
that tax of . cents per share should
be levied upon every share of stock
sold at stock exchange or at any
other place and that Il similar tax of .
cents should be collected upon all
bonds sold on the stock exchange or
elsewhere. The caucus accepted the
suggestion. but decided to leave the
formulation of the amendment with
possibly change of rates to the
finance committee. The finance com
mittee took the matter up to-day, but
did not reach definite conclusion. A
rough estimate places the amount of
revenue the provision will furnish at
$1,O00.000.
The caucus not only decided not to
impose the extra tax on beer, but 1t
also, at the suggestion of Senator
Pritchard, receded from the proposed
changes on manufactured tobacco, in
Guiding smoking tobacco, leaving In
the provisions regarding cigars and ci-
garettes in the interna! revenue feat
ure of the bill. A decision was
reached to make the rate on cigarettes

Senator Elliins seconded Senator

making vigorous speech.
