PERFECT QUIET.
A new system of electric lights is be-
ing tried in Jail ait night at the sugges-
tiOn of the Jail commissioners. For
some time past the arc lights in the
corridor have been too bright fer the
narrow place, beside keeping up a con-
tual hum all night, much to the an
n0yance of the night wardens. In
place of each arc light an overhead
cluster of six powerful incandescent
lamps is stationed.
The light is equally strong as that
OF the arc and saves eyes, money and
the continual and horrifying hum that
lasts all night.

AND STILL WE HAVE NO WAR.
Event Long Expected Comes on at Madrid
without "a Declaration.

Madrid, Sept. 20.-The Duke of Tetuan
had a long interview yesterday with
the queen and United States Minister
Woodford.
London, Sept. 20.-A dispatch TO The
Times from Madrid says: THE confer
ence between United States Minister
Woodford and the Duke OF Tetuan last
ed about two hours and has given rise
TO a good deal Of excited surmise. Little
appears TO have been said however,
beyond the interchange of the custom
airy courtesies and mutual assurances
OF pacific intentions and good will. The
conversation was carried on through
high official of the foreign office as in
terpreter."
The excited surmise doubtless had it's
origin in the Washington specials, which
told all about Woodfords instructions
to practically inform Spain that she
must accept the dictation Of the United
States as TO the conduct of the Cuban
war, In which event other specials from
Madrid said Woodford would be given
his passports instanter.

Trial-Judge Has Point To Decide.
Chicago. Sept. pa wrangle between
the prosecution and defense over the ad-
INSTABILITY Of evidence tending TO show
the motive for the murder of Mrs Luet-
CERT prevented the state from closing
its case as ii had expected to DO Satur-
day. Judge Tuthill took the matter un-
der advisement and the case went over
until tomorrow. Not only were the at
torneys for the prosecution and defense
at variance over evidence. but there
was trouble in the camp OF the defense,
Vincent. senior counsel for Luetgert,
assuring the court that he objected TO
evidence showing motive, and Attorney
Phalen. junior counsel. informing the
court that he had no objection in the
world TO the introduction of the testi-
mony.
The evidence the state desires tointro-
duce will show Luetgert's immoral re-
lations with a couple of women, and
Vlncent's objection was that such rela-
tions do not necessarily imply motive
for getting rid OF a mans wife. Judge
Tuthil's view was evidently that OF the
defense Saturday. He warned the
states attorney that he was so far
against the introduction OF the evil
dence and that ii would take some
pretty good authorities TO change his
mind. The other proceedings Saturday
were not interesting, the states evil
dence being TO show that the bones. etc.
really were found in and about the
sausage factory.
1t came to light yesterday that Luet-
CERT INDUCED in fight last Wednesday
afternoon with William Young, a pris-
oner in the jail. and that was the cause
OF Luetgert's lameness.

MOB CUTS ITS VICTIM TO PIECES.
Every Man Who Could Get at the Assassin
Kniyed Him.

Yells were kept up: Kill him; he be-
longs to u.s." and the din arose as of a
horde of savages. Windows were broken
and the noise aroused the officers OF the
secret service in the adjoining room,
who rushed to the scene but did not fire
on the crowd, fearing they might Kill
some Of the comrades of the police in
side, so they contented themselves with
firing shots from the windows, thus call
ing together the police on neighboring
corners. who were ordered to prevent
any persons leaving the city building.
Meantime in the room above frghtful
tragedy had been enacted. Many knives
were plunged into the body of Arroyo,
who, of cource. was entirely helpless.
Inspector Velasquez had just left the
national palace, where he had been
accompanying the family Of the gov
ernor OF the federal district, when he
heard the firing and went directly there.
Over twenty arrests were made and all
were locked up incommuncado and
have not been released pending a strict
inquiry which is to be made. The body
Of. Arroyo had been dragged to the
balcony with the evident purpose Of
throwing il into the street Arroyos
diHlS were Dduly cut DIS lie ndu tNlutnS-
ly struggled with his murderers.
When the tumult had subsidized the
body was taken to the Fourth police
station where an examination was made,
showing a great gaping wound in the
left lung, a deep wound in the left side,
one on the right shoulder and others
on the arms and feet. There were nine
wounds in ALL One of the gen darn IS
was wounded in the fight with the mob.
Officer Sanchez suffered contusions
from being trampled upon.
Arroyo had been in prison several
times, on one occasion for shooting a
man. His acquaintance say he was
somewhat crazy, and inclined TO acts
OF violence. He drove his father to de-
spair and death by his conduct, having
forged his fathers name. He was 80
years OF age, son OF a tailor, but was
given liberal education and became
for time a military cadet and then
took up law. President Diaz in a speech
yesterday deplored the lynching of Ar
royo. and declared that IL there was
any fault in the vigilance on the part
OF the police IL should be investigated
and the consequences fall on the heads
OF the culpable persons.
