Neukoms Story Of the Woman Who Callet
the Bark King "Deae."

NeukOms story OF the W Woman Who Called
the Bark King "Deae."
milwaukee,. May 25-The woman who
figured in the mystery surrounding the
death of Nelson b. Clark. the Grand
Rapids lumberman, is at last believed
to have been discovered. Edward F.
Neukom. draughtsman at the Allis Iron
works, saw a man answering the de-
scription of Clark walking along a lone
ly thoroughfare 4 few blocks from
where his body was found the following
morning. and Identifies the woman who
was with the supposed lumberman on
that occasion, and who pulled him by
the lapel of his overcoat as she pleaded
with him to come along. dearie." The
man whom Neukom saw lurking in the
background watching the actions of the
couple also answers in description that
of the husband of the woman.
1t is possible the woman identified by
Neukom may have been in the company
of her husband or some near relative,
but if the police have any information
to that effect they have failed to make
it known. They Furthermore do not
deny that Neukom's Identification was
as complete as it was possible for it to
be under the circumstances, but they re-
fuse to state whether they have fol-
lowed up this clew. 1t is known that
this woman's husband was not expected
by her to arrive in the city until Satur-
day evening, but that he did arrive
Friday night has been established.
Whether he passed that evening at
home is an important factor in deter
| mining the value of this clew. The po-
lice department appears to be moving
slowly in the matter.
Neukom has received two threatening
| letters during the past few days. The
| first one warned him to maintain silence
, regarding his observations on the event.
full Friday night. 1t was headed, First
4 warning" and under this were the
words. shut up. Take heed at your
peril Experts in penmanship think
| this letter was written by a woman in
a disguised hand. a second threaten
ing letter was received by Neukom. but
| the police refuse to state the nature
| of its contents. The Milwaukee friends
of Clark say the family will offer a re-
. ward Of $500 during the next few days
for information resulting in the arrest
and conviction of the party responsible
for his death. 1t is believed this reward
will greatly stimulate the efforts to
fathom the mystery.

3. Clark at Milwaukee.
Chicago, May 25.-While lying under
bed in the home of Frank Chalk, for
factory, one of Captain Schuettler's de-
tectives is said to have listened to a con-
versation between the accused wife
murderer and the watchman. Admis-
siors made by Luetgert on this occasion
are said to have caused the immediate
arrest of the man, and the story of what
passed between the sausage-maker and
his employe will be told today in Justice
kersten's court. Other portions of Gialk's 8
testimony will be nearly as interesting.
He will swear that Leutgert ordered
him &c remain away from the vat room
on the night of May l; that twice during
the night he sent him out for a bottle of
medicine. Upon his return with these
articles Luetgert. each time. opened the
ing. took the bottle and hastily closed
and barred the door.
Tcstimony's of Luetgert's Son.
The preliminary hearing of Adolph
L. Leutgert was resumed before Justice
kersten at the criminal court building
yesterday. Louis a. Luetgert, a T.
year-old sen CT the accused man, was the
first witness. He testified that he did
not see his father go out of the house the
night of May1; that he did hear his moth
er go out, but did not see her as she left.
He was sent to bed at 10 o'clock the night
in question, after which he heard only
single footsteps. In describing his
mother Louis said she wore false upper
teeth. ard that she had on two rings.
She had said nothing to him before leav-
ing the house. His testimony went to
prove that his father and mother left
the house separately. Mrs. Otto Tusch
was the next witness. She testified to
the disappearance of Mrs. Luetgert and
said that On the following day she asked
Luetgert why smoke was coming out of
the factory.
Expresses Anger at His Wife.
Luetgert did not tell her Of his wife's
disappearance. Some days later she
asked the prisoner where his wife was
and he answered that he did not know
She told Luetgert the police were after
him, ard he sid he was innocent He
also said the engineer had been talking
too much. Two weeks before Mrs. Lieut.
gert's disappearance Luetgert went into
saloon where witness was. He ap-
peared downcast. When asked the rea-
son for his low spirits he said he had
just had a quarrel with his wife. II
feel he said. 'as IL 1 could take her and!
- But the witness interrupted him
and said she should not talk that way
about his wife. At this peint Leutgert. the
prisoner, interrupted the witness, saying
it was shame she should be allowed to
tell such stories in court. It took both
his attorneys to quiet him.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear There is only one
way to deafness, and that is by constitutions

dition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian
Tube. When this tube is intiamed YOU have a
rumbiing sound or imperfect hearing, and when it
is entirely closed, Deafness is tie result and I'M
less the inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh which is nothing but an intiam-

One thing is certain: 1t will not do
to fool with bad cold. No one can
tell what the end will be. Pneumo-
mia, catarrh, chrvSic bronchitis, if not
consumption, invariably result from
a neglected cold. It is surprising too,
that bad colds are so often neglected
when one remembers how easily and
at what = expense they may be
cured. Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
is always prompt and effectual, and
costs but a trifle; % or 80 cents is n
trifle as compared with the disastrous
effects of a neglected cold. Mr. Abb
ner Mercer, of DilwOrthtOwn, Ches-
ter county, Pa. in speaking of this
remedy, said: Sometime ago l had
a cold and cough. | tried almost ev-
erything Finally Mr.. Hunt, the drug
gist, recommended Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. and one 80 cent bottle
of it cured me entirely" For sale by
