Chicago, October 25.-There is a pos
sibility that the second trial of Adolph
l.. Luetgert, the alleged wife murderer,
will begin this week.
States Attorney Deneen said to-day
| that unless the defense asked for a con-
tinuance and still persisted in their de-
mand for. the release of the prisoner
on bail he would put the case on the
trial call for Wednesday.
The States Attorney does not know
what judge will be selected to hear the
second trial. Judge Horton has been
suggested and the case may come up
before him.
THE second trial will not be as bong
as the recent trial was" said States At
torney Deneen. I'VE know the defense
now. We are also better prepared with
our own evidence and there is much of
it that was submitted during the trial
just ended that will be omitted on the
new trial. We have considerable i'm
portant new evidence which we Will
Introduce. But now that we know the
situation thoroughly the progress of
! the new trial will be more rapid, but
none the less interesting than the first
trial We shall not consent to bail,
and if the defense will not ask for a
continuance the trial will proceed as
indicated"
States Attorney Deneen will insist
that something be done in the Luet-
CERT case this week. He does not in
tend to permit the defense to spring
upon him the technical assertion that
Luetgen@ has been in Jail four terms OF
court without trial, and is therefore
entitled to his discharge. With the
close of the present week four terms of
the Criminal Court shall have elapsed
since Luetgert was indicted. As the
case now stands the same as if no
trial was ever had, the prosecution
fears the defense may next week urge
that Luetgert has been in Jail four full
| terms of court without trial and ask
fer his release upon this technical con-
struction of the law.

The attempt to get conference n,
the mine operators and miners. at
Trades Assembly hall, yesterday, for
thue purpose OF adjusting the dispute
regarding screens. failed for the rea-
son that the operators paid no at
tention to the call and did not put in
an appearance. The representatives Of
the Miners were there, and after wait
ing on the operators for some time,
proceeded to transact business amons
themselves.
The reports of Henry Foster, presi.
| dent of the District Board. and Or
ganizer Chris. Evans. in regard to
, their efforts TO have the Ohio 14-inch
screens adopted by the operators of
this district. were received. They
stated that they had seen the
Moundsville operator, and he seemed
willing to put in the Ia inch screens
| II the other operators would do the
same. They were unable to see the
Glendale operators, and Supt. Kuntz,
of the Boggs mines. told them that
| if the Ia Inch screens were in use in
Ohio that they ought to be used here
| j. p. Gilchrist, of the North Wheeling
| mines, assured them that if other
operators of the district were Willing
| to meet the miners and adjust the
matter that they would be in line
Ibe Elm Grove operators told them
tpat there was no trouble at their
mines about the screen question, and
that the men were content with the
present arrangement. This committee
also reported the various siZS OF
/ screens used in the district. as fol-
lows: Elm Grove and Moundsville,
| 3-S inches; at Boggs' run. 17-16
inches.
| After a somewhat lengthy discussion
of the matter, the following resolu.
tons were passed by the miners of.
| fetal board:
| Whereas, The operators of this dis.
| trict have refused to meet the miners
in joint convention; therefore, be 1t
/ Resolved, That we condemn the
action of the operators in not comply
! ing with the call Of, the miners to
meet in joint session and try to adjust
the screen question, which is causing
much discomfort among the miners ir
the district; and be it further
! Resolved, That as the miners OF this
district are working under the Ohio
scdie anu are Dalu LOT screen coal
at the Ohio price, that we continue
to fight this question by all lawful
means until the operators of the dis
trict take out the 3-S and 7-16 inch
screens and put in the same sized
screens in use in Ohio, viz: Ia inches;
! and be it further
Resolved, That we do all in our
power to organize the Glendale and
Elm Grove miners and get the men to
also demand the Ia Inch screen. as
the miners Of the district are losing

coal they are digging over the present
screen in use.

several other resolutions for the pro-
lection Of the miners of the district.

very encouraging. The prediction of

The scale of wages for pilots and

ALLEGES FRAUD.
Charles Austin Bates Wants Pos
session Of Stock in the General Elec-
trio Railway Co.

New York, October %. According
to summons and complaint filed in
the county clerks Office to-day,
Charles Austin Bates claims he had
been defrauded out of S2,000,C00 worth
of stock of the General Electric Rail-
way Company, of Chicago, and he
Pierpont Morgan e Co. as defendants
in the suit to recover it: the other
defendants being Lucius Clark, A. G..
Wheeler and Perry A. Hull, of Chi
cago.
Bates in his complaint alleges that
defendant Clark. who then held con-
siderable amount of stock in the COM
pany came to him and represented
to him (Bates) and other stockhold-
ers, that in order to successfully carry
out the objects for which the corpora
ton was created, and to secure the
passage Of ordinances allowing the use
of certain streets in CHICAGO. it was
necessary to have q controlling inter
est in the stock of the company placed
temporarily in the hands of one per-
son.
Bates says he turned over to Clark
his 10000 shares on Clark's promise
TO return them as soon as the objects
he represented were ACCOMPLISHED. but
that he had repeatedlv tried in vain to
get Clark to return the stock.
Bates says he then discovered that
Clark transferred it to a man named
Stinson. who in turn transferred it
either to 7. Pierpont Morgan. or to J.
Pierpont Morgan &. Co. who, Bates
saws. now have it in their possession
All the transfers, Bates declares,
were pretended and made without con-
sideration. and he brings suit to re-
cover the stock and asks tho court for
an Injunction restraining the defend
ants from disposing of the stock.

It's the best thing for the
hair under all circumstances.
Just as no man by taking
thought can add an inch to
his stature, Sc no preparation
can make hair. The utmost
that can be done is to pro-
mote conditions favorable to
growth. This is done by
Ayers Hair Vigor. It re-
moves dandruff, c1eanses the
scalp, nourishes the soil in
which the hair grows, and,
just as a desert will blossom

ished. But the roots must be
there. If you wish your hair
to retain its normal color, or
if you wish to restore the lost
