the Sausage Maker for Numbering
His Wife.

Chicago, August 25.-The examina-
tion Of veniremen to try Luetgert for
the murder of his wife was resumed
to-day.
A touching incident was the appear
ance to-day of the prisoners two
young sons, Louis and Elmer. When
Luetgert caught sight Of his two chill
dren, whose mother he is alleged to
have murdered, be c~me forward
quickly, caught the lads up one after
another and kissed them. Then he
leaned back in his chair, gazing fix
edly at the children, while an express
sion Of pain came over his features.
Luetgert soon recovered himself ana
his face took on it's habitual scowl. At
least ten days will be required to select
a jury.

GLASS GOES US.
The Newly Formed Trust Pushes the
Price Seven Per Cent. 10 the Public.

Chicago, August 25.-Window glass
has gone up Z per cent. in price to the
public. The jobbers' association met
to-day and were officially notified
by the manufacturers combine,
which was completed here yesterday,
that the price to them was raised
5 per cent. The jobbers promptly rais-
ed this . per cent, claiming the 8 per
cent advance did not restore to them
the proper margin of profit. The new
rates of discount under the increase
are 60 and 20 per cent. The increase
affects all grades of window glass.
There will be another meeting in a
week or two, following the organiza-
ton Of the trust outlined at the manu-
facturers' meeting, for the purpose of
organizing the jobbers for the new
conditions.

COUNT MUTSU DEAD.
One Of Japans Greatest Statesmen
and Diplomats Passes Away.

Washington, August PA te,e-
gram was received at the Japanese
legation to-day announcing the death
of Count Mutsu. ex-Minister of For
eign Affairs and japanese Minister to
the United States in 1855. The news
was not unexpected, as the Count has
been in with lung trouble for a long
time.
Count Nltsu was one of the most
distinguished men in the history Of
new Japan. His services to his coun-
try were equally marked in fostering
the movement that for several years
prior to the Chinese war had eagerly
absorbed every material advantase ~
fered by western civilization.
Mutsu was well known sni liked in
Washington.

Little Rock, Ark, August 25.-Fear-
full scenes have been enacted in Ar
kansas in the past few days. If the
report which reached here to-day
should be true, q wholesale lynching,
which. for the number of men put TO
death without process Of law, has
probably never been paralleled in the
annals of crime, has taken place in
Cleburne county, where, according 10
the report, six men were swung into
eternity last night by maddened and
enraged mob of citizens of that county.
One negro rapist was burned in his
own house by a posse Of deputy sher-
ifs in Drew county Sunday night, and
Tuesday morning the lifeless body of
a negro murderer was found dangling
from a railroad trestle near Pine
Bluff. Last night six of the murderers'
companions were taken to Jail at Rison
and to-day comes the report that the
entire half dozen were lynched last
night. All effort to verify this report
has so far proved futile, but there are
reasons to believe that it is true.
