NEW YORK CAMPAIGN.
All the Candidates Still Keep Up Their
Hopes.

-
New York, Oct. 26.-With only five
days remaining in which to complete the
work OF the municipal campaign. the
political situation in Greater New York
continues to afford large opportunities
sor conjecture. So far as the betting is
indicative OF results, Tammany aprears
20 have the best OF 1t, although there
are offers Of republican money upon
terms that should prove alluring. The
odds on Van Wyck against the field are
quoted at betting headquarters as 3 to
/. but at the rooms o. dhe republican
campaign committee it Is said that those
who have a desire to bet against Gen.
Tracey can be accommodated with even
money 10 any extent they may desire.
That the strength of the citizens I'M
ion movement Is not held in contemp;
is shown by the space which is given
in the journals advocating one or other
OF the regular political parties. Columns
and even pages are devoted 10 assaults

university.
While the Jeffersonian democracy's
strength. within certain limitations, is
conceded on all sides, it is only among
the most enthusiastic adherents o.

that he will be elected. The real i'm

ANOTHER SHADY STORY.
In Relation o Mrs. Leutgrt Being
Alive.

Chicago. Oct. 26.-''Within the past
"a hours we have received Information
that may make another trial OF Luet,
CERT Unnecessary" said Attorney Albert
Pha,en today. Il will not reveal the
name Of my informant, nor the LOCATION
Of the city in which he lives at present,
but ii is within 200 miles Of Chicago.
and the man is an ~ex-o6icial OF the
pace. He is positive-absolutely posi-
live-.lal ne has seen Mrs. Luetgert
with,n a rev days. The Information.
tCgeiher with his Identification, is
startling in directness. But we have
been startled SO many times by similar
reports only to be eventually disap-
appointed that | will not believe the re-
port until / see the woman he says 10
Mrs. Luetgert. We are investigating
nc sorry OF this informant. We have
learned hat he is a ~cool-headed and re-
liable persons and his story may at last
solve the mystery. But l will believe
the woman is Mrs. Luetgert when Luet-
CERT says so. and her family corroborates
and not before"
1t is believed that the Information
comes from Davenport, La. 1856 miles
west OF Chicago. Soon after Mrs. Luet-
gert's disappearance a report reached
Chicago that she was seen in Davenport
and also in Rock Island, ILL.,, across the
river from Davenport. but Investigation
proved the report untrue.
Attorney Pha.en called at states at
;orney's office today to consult with
States Attorney Deneen and Assistant
States Attorney McEwan with refer
ence 20 the Luetgert case. Mr.. Deneen,
however, was not at bis ONCE, as his
health has been somewhat affected by
the long strain Of the trial. Mr.. PhAben
said that he would much rather have
the case continued for q while, but IL
necessary he would as soon begin to-
morrow as any time. No steps looking
toward an application for bail for LOet-
CERT have been made. nor will any be
until after another conference between
the states attorney and the lawyers for
the defense.

AN INSANE FAMILY.

st. Louis, Oct. 26.-On August 8, Mrs
Peter Hauptmann. wife OF a wealthy
merchant, was attacked by some one,
who cut her throat with a bread knife,
killing her instantly. At the inquest
it was decided that Louise, the insane
daughter, had committed the act. The
strongest witness against Louise was
her brother Will, whose sanity at that
lime was unquestioned.
The next day an ex-po.icsman named
Roberts. and Will. went away on a trip,
returning a few days later, and 1t was
stated that Will was insane. Physicians
examined him and ne was committed to
he insane asylum.
Now, Willis sweetheart, Annie Kline,
and his %step-sister, Mrs. Windsheimer,
say that on the day Of the murder they
heard a commotion and rushed into the
room. where they foond Will standing
at the door trembling. and that he had
blood ON his shirt. They say Louise
was sitting calmly at a table eating, In
exactly the same position she was when
Mrs. windsheimer left her a few mo-
ments before.
The stories Of the two women have
aroused much attention and . thorough
investigation IL being made.
