Successor to Hermann.

CHICAGO, Ill, September 1.-The
American debut this week of Leon
Hermann, nephew and sole remaining g
male relative of the renowned prosti-
dig itor who died suddenly on the train
in New York state last Decem ber, has
been the event of the week in local
amusement circles. Great interest has
been manifested in the debut in thea
trical circles throughout the country
owing to the great skill and popularity
of "Hermann the Great" and the be-
lief that his place would be impossible
of filing. 1t is the unanimous opinion
of the critics, however, as well as of
the crowds that have thrOnged the
grand opera house this week that the
nephew is worthy successor of his
famous uncle, and that the perpetual
tion of the fame of the house of Her.
mann is thus insured for years to come.
Nine. Hermann, widow of the deceased
magician, has also made a pronounced
success as prestidigitatrice, skillfuliy
performing many of the feats original
ed by her late husband.

Mix Like Oil and Water.

LONDON, September 4.-The British
Trades Union congress, which in its
federated form represents the largest
aggregation of organized labor in the
world, assemblies at Birming ham on
Monday for a week. IS session, and there
are mut,erings of discomfort among the
radical delegates that have already
gathered there over the action OF the
executive committee in deciding to cur
tail the first days proceedings in order
to accept an invitation for garden
party at Warwick castle, extended by
the Earl and countess OF Warwick
But once before in its history has the
congress been entertained by a mem
ber of the nobility, and at that time SO
great was the outcry raised by the de-
legates of radio and sOcialistlc ten
denotes and who make up no small
proportion of each congress that it was
taken for granted that thereafter the
executive committee would steer clear
of hobnobbing with the aristocrac y.
The earl of Warwick has never been
recognized as friend of organized
labor and hence the objection to his
intention of taking the congress under
his wing is intensified. 1t is probable
that on Monday the radicals will raise
an objection to an adjournment of the
congress, but if they cannot muster
enough votes to make a ,espectab e
showing they will make manifest their
objections by remaining away from the
funC ton.

Luetgert's Sweetheart Expos
es His DupIicity.
THE JURY INTERESTED,
The Sweetheart Produces Letters
From the Accused Murderer Show
ing That he Wanted to get Another
Wife.

CHICAGO, September At was
Adolph Luetgert, lover, rather than
Apolph Luetgert, murderer, pictured
to the jury at this mornings session
in the famous murder trial. Those
who listened to the testimony of Mrs.
Christina Feldt saw this other phrase
of his nature. They saw an ardent
lover writing in warmest phrases, to
his "Dear, Precious Christina. .
They saw the stolid busi-
ness man, the alleged murderer
profe ssing burning heart and an undy-
ing devotion for q woman other than
his wife. It was for Mrs. Feldt, the
state claims, that Leutgert killed his
wife and disposed of the remains in the
grewsome vat. This morning his for
mer sweetheart turned against Kim.
She produced the burning letters he
had written her before and after his
arrest. She showed that Leutgert,
claiming his wife was still alive, was
laying plans to marry another woman.
She read letters from the sausage
maker urging her to stay by him. AS
Mrs. Feldt gave her testimony, the
jury was absorbed in.interest. They saw
another light on a case in which such
a cool deliberate and terrible crime
is charged.
81 have secured great criminal
lawyer he writes. ''When the trial
begins 1 will walk into the court and
there will be great consterna,ion." !"
Concluding he declares that he will go
away with the widow and they will be
supreme1y happy ever after.
Justice Bonnerfoi testified to certi-
flying copies of letters from Luetgert to
Mrs. Feldt and court was then adjourn
ed until Tuesday.

A Bunch of Rot.

NEW YORK, September 4.-Sam
Cook, chairman of the democratic COM
mittee of Missouri, today telegrapbed
the following response in request from
New York for an opinion on the silver
faith in Missouri and whether the 10y
atty to Bryan was as great as ever, de-
spite present prosperity:
"The advanced price of wheat has
not affected the silver sentiment in
Missouri. Our people feel that natural
causes and shortage in supply have
caused the advance in price. They
know the same financial policy that
prevails today existed throughout Mr..
Cleveland's entire term when the
price of agricultural products reached
the lowest points known since the war.
The loyalty of our people to Bryan Is
undated. If primary were held to-
morrow, he would carry every voting
precinct in the state. Missouri will
send solid Bryan delegation to ma
tional convention in 1900"
Replies of q similar nature were re-
ceived from the democratic national
committeeman in Arkansas, Alabama,
Deleware, Georgia, Indiana, Louisians,
Minnesota, Nebraska, Oregon and
Tennessee. The consesus of opinion
is that prosperity had no effect upon
democrats and populist faith in silver.
The farmers of the democratic faith
are glad to get higher prices but are
skeptical that prosperity is based on
short crops and famine. Bryan Is
stronper than aver
