BATTLE OF EXPERTS.
Defense in the Luetgert Case Has a Few
on Hand.

Defense in the Luetgert Case Has Few
on Hand.
CHICAGO, Sept. 29.-The battle be-
tween the experts has begun, and from
now on there will be denials thrown at
the evidence of the medical and chem
ical wise men who testified for the state
in the Luetgert case. The defense put
its first witness in the expert line on
the stand during the day, and he will
be followed by long string of others.
The first witness was DR.. B. L. REESE,
who boiled two bodies in ca ustic potash
In the vat in Luetgert's sausage factory,
and obtained results different from
those who boiled bodies in caustic pot
ash in behalf of the state.
Another witness of the day was Ar
madele Opdyke, a peddler, who testi-
fed that long after the murder is said
80 have been committed he saw Mrs.
jLnetgert in the neighborhood of James
vile, Wis. He said that there was no
chance of his being mistaken, and he
identified the photograph which he was
shown in court in the most positive
manner.

Raiders Were Turkish Kurds.

TEHERAN, Sept. 29.-The inquiry
made into the fighting which took place
on the Turko- Persian frontier in August
last shows that the raiders were Turk
ish Kurds, who crossed the frontier
with the full knowledge of the Turkish
military authorities, sacked nine vii
lagos and massacred 800 Mussulmans and
Christians, including. women and chill
dren. The Persian government is de-
manding full satisfaction from Turkey
for the Outrages.

Natures Rattleboxes.

Near New Brunswick, N. j., says
Minerals, are found hollow balls. OF
masses, Of yellow iron ore which con-
tain loose PARTICLES that rattle, when
shaken, like the contents of child's
rattlebox. It is thought that when the
concretions Of ore were formed the cen
trail parts consisted principally of some
material which afterward dissolved
away, so that the interior space now
contains only fragments of ore and sand.
When these balls are broken, the frac-
tured edges sometimes show beautiful
bands of red and yellow.

Size For Size.

The company of one Of the opera

had arrived at Liverpool to embark fol-
a continental tour. The musical instru-

and among them was the double bass,
or 'big fiddle, = as it is also called, not
cased as usual, for this member Of the
string family will stand little rough
treatment.
1t soon attracted the attention of the
jack tars, three or four of whom settled
round, scrutinizing itwith keen inter
est. By the order Of an officer they soon
dispersed, but not long afterward an
other bluff seaman was discovered Sc
cretly watching it with wondering eyes.
He was asked his reason for standing
thus idle.

THE CRATER OF RAINIER.
Experiences of Night on the Summit of
the Weird Mountain.

Experiences of Night on the Summit of
the Weird Mountain.
Throwing off the lifo line, which had
become almost an intolerable burden, !
scaled the pile of bare rocks and gained
the rim of the crater. The great bowl
within was deeply filed with snow, but
the black circle forming its rim could
be distinctly traced. Descending the in
ner slope for about 100 feet, found
place where steam was issuing from a
crevice in the rocks and warmed my
benumbed fingers. Soon my companions
joined me, and we took refuge in one
of the many caverns that the heat of
the rocks and of the escaping steam
had melted in the lower portion of the
snow and ice partially filling the crater.
In these weird caverns one may descend
far beyond the light of day, The white
vapors drifting silently through the
dimly lighted passages assume grotesque
shapes and suggest to the imaginative
visitor that spirits of the time when
Pluto's reign was supreme there make
their homes.
BY melting snow in our tin cups over
the cracks from which steam was issu-
ing we soon had water enough with
which to prepare tea. In the absence of
sugar and cream little alcohol from
the supply brought for fuel was added
to each cup and proved welcome
stimulant. Making ourselves as COM
Portable as possible under the circum-
stances, we passed the night in the cav
ern of ice. There were no lodges broad
enough to lie down on, and we were
forced to stand or crouch against the
hot rocks all night. The floor of our
cavern sloped steeply and led down to
an ugly opening of unknown depth be-
tween the descending roof of ice and
the rocks To guard against accidents,
the life line was stretched across the
cavern and made fast to crags This
proved wise precaution, as we were
able during the night to walk up and
down with the rope in our hands and
avoid the stiffness and discomfort that
come from remaining long in one posi-
tion. Israel G. Russell in Scribner's

ARGUMENT CONCLUDED
In the seaboard Case-Met the Cut
Notes.

NORFOLK, VA, March 12-(Spe-
cial)-Argument was concluded to-day
in the case of the Safe Deposit and
Trust Company Of Baltimore vs.. the
Seaboard road At the conclusion, Judge
Hughes took the case under advisement.
His decision viii be rendered in few
days.
Competition between the Bay Line
and the Baltimore. Richmond and
Chesapeake Steamboat Company was
never so strong as at present. This Is
especially true of perishable freight,
green stuff, and fishery products. The
Bay Line Company recently made
specially low rates on this class Of
freight, and the cut was promptly met
by the rival company. The freight on
early vegetables has been reduced about
80 per cent.
Judge Hughes has ordered the sale Of
the steam-schoOner Walker Arlington,
10 take place on the 18th instant at
Merritts wharf, I'm Atlantic City. The
Arlington recently went ashore, and
was libelled by the Merritt Wrecking
Company for $4,000 salvage.
The Sheriff Of Botetourt county arrived
here to-day, and started TO Fincastle
with Ed Davis, a negro wanted there
for criminal assault. His brother, Alex

leased from jail. The Sheriff says that
feeling against Davis is very strong.
