THE LUETGERT CASE.
The Two Franks Will BE Put Upon the

The Two Franks Will Be Put Upon the
Stand Again to Prove a Motive-A De-
mented Woman Found.
Chicago, September 14.-Juror John
E. Fowler, whose illness yesterday
caused an adjournment of the Luetgert
murder trial until Wednesday, was
much improved to-day, and will, his
physician says, be able to attend to-
morrow's session. Luetgert spent a
quiet day in Jail, receiving few callers,
but being apparently in the best Of
humor.
When court opens tomorrow morn
ing Prof. George Vincent Bailey will
be recalled to the witness stand for
further cross-examination by Attorney
Vincent When the defense has COM
pleted the cross examination of Prof
Bailey, the prosecution will call to the
witness stand Frank Bialk and Frank
Odorofsky to establish the motive for
the alleged murder Of Mrs. Luetgert.
These two witnesses, both former en-
ployes Of Luetgert, will testify as to
frequent quarrels between the sausage
maker and his wife because of Luet-
gert's attentions to Mary Siemmering.
the servant in the Luetgert household
The prosecution is impressed with the
belief that Luetgert's infatuation fof
Mary Siemmering was the principal i'm
pulse which actuated him with a de-
sire to get rid Of his wife.
Bialk and Odorofsky, who were daily
observers of the domestic episodes Of
the Luetgert family, are expected to
relate some interesting particulars.
A woman demented and almost nude
was found in the woods near Melrose
park by some farmers last night. The
woman was in terrible condition from
exposure and privation. having been
living in the woods for at least
month. Her description is said to tally
in many respects with that of the miss
ing Mrs. Luetgert. Beyond sending out
a full description of Mrs. Luetgert the
Chicago authorities have taken no ac-
tlon in the matter as they do not be-
lieve that the woman is Luetgert's
wife.

Beset by Troubles at Home and Abroad.
An Interview With Senior saeasta.
Madrid, September 14-Senor Sagas-
ia, the Liberal leader, in an interview
on the subject of the Cuban-insurrec-
ton, says that the uprising, intsead of
dying out is spreading considerably.
In addition, Senior Sagasta says, the
situation in the PHILIPPINE islands is
serious. He also asserts that the Car
lit propaganda in Spain cannot be
viewed with indifference, and expresses
the belief that a reconciliation between
the political parties in Spain is impos-
sible as long as the Conservatives are
in power. In conclusion, Senior Sagas-
ia says: IN my opinion the Cortes
will not meet, but if they do meet their
existence is ephemeral."
The Liberal leader refused to ex-
press himself regarding the relations
between the United States and Spain.
The position of the Bank of Spain
continues to greatly concern CONNER
cial circles, owing to its immense note
circulation. Paris exchange has
reached $3.50, the highest on record.
As the bank has lost the State $50 .O00,-
600 pestas repayable, without interest,
in 1920, its affairs would become criti-
cal in the event of the bank mourning
losses on loans, in the absence of suffi-
cient guarantees against current ac-
counts and note circulation.

retreating men. One man, whose
name cannot be learned, more daring
than the rest, ventured into the open
and was stoned numerically. He will
probably die from the effects Of the
abuse.

Marchers Released from Jail and
Ready to Resume tho Fight
Against DeArmitt.
Pittsburg, Pa, September 14.-Work
has been resumed in number OF mines
and it is expected that all will be run
ming full on Thursday morning, not
withstanding the ten days clause in the
resolution accepting the operators COM
promise proposition.
The mines of the Castle Shannon
Coal Company and the Keeling Coal
Company, on the South Side, started
in full at an early hour. The Darr
mine, of Osborne, Saegler & Co. on the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad, operated
by machines, is on in full. The Jumbo
mine of the Robbins interests, on the
Panhandle road, started yesterday
with about rs men, but is on in full
now.
The general sentiment along the
Wheeling division is for an early re-
sumption. Ed Boyle, of Boyle Bros,
said his men are ready to return to
work and he expects to get the Hack
EFT mine in operation in the morning.
DR.. D. M. Anderson says his men at
Venetia will likely go in Thursday
morning,
]. B. Zerbe, of The Ohio and Penn
sylvania Coal Company, said he would
start the mines as soon as the old men
are ready to return to work.
Col. w. P. Rend expects to get his
mines in the Mcdonald field in full
operation by Thursday morning. He
held a consultation with a number of
operators at the Monongahela House
at which he informed them of new
rate given the West Virginia coal OPP
orators by the Chesapeake and Ohio
Railroad Company, which will serious
ly injure the lake trade of the Pittsburg
coal operators. The Colonel said:
This has given the West Virginia
operators a rate Of 81 a ton for coal
shipped to st. Paul and Minneapolis.
With the advantage of a cheap lake
freight the lowest price that Pittsburg
coal can be transported to those points
is 81 25 a ton"
President Dolan to-day denies that
in conference with the operators last
night he advocated a withdrawal from
the national organization. He con-
cludes: Neither did I say that
would not enforce the continuance Of
the strike for ten days as passed by the
national convention. I am not a Judge
in this matter, no matter what nv own
opinion may be. That will be fore the
miners delegates to say when they
meet in convention tomorrow.
