DEATH ON s. \. WALKER
Sudden Demise Of a Well Known Banker and
Business Man.


1t VIII be n shocking announcement
to banking and business circles and to
the public Mt large to learn OF the
death of s. f. Walker. cashier Of the
Bank of Commerce of this city.
Mr.. Walker was cut down suddenly
and almost without note of warning
though his family and immediate
friends knew OF his serious illness for
several days. On Saturday last he was
compelled to give up his business and
go home on account OF sickness.
Typhoid-pneumonia developed very
quickly and his condition became
alarming. Then he grew worse from
an acute stoppa sc of the bowels. \
consultation OF physicians was called
and every possible effort made to save
him. But the attempts were all futile
and at 1880 today he died at his resi-
dence No. IS west Fifth South. He
was only 3S years Of age and leaves a
wife and one child to mourn his early
death.
Mr.. Walker had been the cashier Of
the Bank of Commerce from its in
corporation and had proved himself a
very capable flnancier and business
man. His ability was recognized
throughout the business community.
Besides that, he was far-slghted.
public spirited and progressive citizen.
with bright prospects in life. His de-
mise will be widely mourned. Profound
sympathy is felt for the bereavad fam
lily which has been three times visited
by death within the past three months.
Funeral arrangements have not yet
been made.

TALL PREvARICATING.
One Side or the Other is Doing Lots of 1t
In the Luetgcrt Case.

Chicago, Sept. 24.-The defense In the
Luetgert trial this morning devoted
itself to strengthening the story that
Mrs Luetgert, who, according to the
theory OF the prosecution, on May g.,
had been seen in and around Kenosha,
wis. The witnesses, one of whom had
known Mrs. Luetgert for several years.
positively Identified n photograph of
Mrs. Luetgert as the picture of the wo-
man at Kenosha on the date mem
toned.
Mrs Matte Scherrer, Miss Maud
Scherrer, and Miss Gertrude Miller, tes-
titled this morning that Emma
Shmpke since she had testified for the
prosecution had said in their hearing
that her evidence was entirely false.
She said the only reason she testified
falsely was to support the evidence OF
her sister who had first lied.
Frank Schlebe, a farmer, who lives
near Kenosha, Wis, and who lad
known Mrs. Luetgert for seven years,
testified that he met her on a country
road near that town on May L. He
said he did not recognize the woman
but he was attracted by her worn and
generally exhausted appearance. After
ward, when he learned that Mrs. Luet-
CERT was missing and received a
description of the clothing she wore
when she disappeared, he was conf
dent he had seen her and that the
strange woman he met on the road was
her.
Policeman VIM. Smith OF Kenosha
told of seeing Il strange woman at the
Northwestern depot at Kenosha at Q
o'clock on the same morning. He posi-
lively Identified the photograph OF Mrs.
Luetgert as the woman he saw at the
