PREDICTS HIS AcQUITTAL.
A Prominent Chicago Attorney Thinks
Luetgert will Get Of.

Chicago, Sept. 16-According to an
eminent criminal lawyer, Luetgert can
and will execute move, when his time
comes. which will result in his acquit.
tai.
Scores Of witnesses, according to him,
will go on the stand and swear that the
rings found in the vat were not those
of Louisa Bicknese Luetgert.
The lawyer states that he has re-
ceived this information direct from At
tornev w. A. Vincent, the prisoners
attorney.
This evidence will free Luetgert, "
he says, and he briefly sets forth his
theory in the following words:
To secure conviction the state
must prove three things: That body
was destroyed in the factory on the
night in question; and this body is that
of Louisa Luetgert; that Adolph l..
Luetgert committed the crime.
Each and all of these three things
must be shown beyond reasonable
doubt. If, as Attorney Vincent says,
he can show that the rings did not be-
long to Mrs. Luetgert, or can even
raise a reasonable doubt on this point,
verdict of not guilty should follow.
With the identity of the rings in doubt
there is the identity of the body in
doubt, as | understand the evidence.
The state must show beyond peradven-
ture that the rings were those of Mrs.
Luetgert The state may show posi-
lively that human bones-probably
those of a woman were found in the
vat and furnace fire ashes, but under
the laws of the state this can not JUS
tify conviction.
"The bones must be shown to be
those of the missing woman. How else
can they show this but by the rings?
Because my brother is missing and
human bones are found in my cellar is
not presumption of my guilt. The
remains must be identified as those of
my brother. The fight in the Luetgert
case centers about the rings, and
predict that the defense will be victor
ious."
The attorney desired to have his
name withheld, but he is well qualified
to speak. He has been identified with
some of the greatest criminal cases in
Chicago's history, and was at one time
mentioned as a possible lawyer for
Luetgert.

His head and body were a mass
of sores, and his nose was swollen to
several times its natural size; to add to
his misery he had catarrh, which made
him almost deaf, and his eyesight also
became affected. No treatment was
spared that we thought would relieve
him, but he grew worse until his condi-
ton was indeed pitiable. A dozen blood
remedies were given him by the whole
sale, but they did not the slightest good.
I had almost despaired of his ever being
cured, when by the advice of a friend we
gave him SIS. (Swift's Specifc), and
at first the Inflammation seemed to in
crease, but as this is the way the remedy
gets rid of the poison, by forcing it out
of the system, we were encouraged and
continued the medicine. A decided i'm
provement was the result, and after he
had taken dozen bottles, no one who
knew of his former dreadful condition
would have recognized him. All the
sores on his body have healed, his skin
is perfectly clear and smooth, and he
has been restored to perfect health"
Mr.. A. 7. Morgan, one of the promi-
nent druggists of Macon, and member
of the board of aldermen of that city,
says: 81 am familiar with the terrible
condition of little Charlie Mabry, and
the cure which SIS. effected in his
case was remarkable, and proves it to
be wonderful blood remedy"
SIS. is the only cure for deepseated
blood diseases, such as Scrofu1a, Rheu-
matism, Cancer, Eczema, Catarrh, etc.
1t is the only blood remedy guaranteed

About 9 o'clock these cards were
passed around with pencil attached,
and the programme of the evening
began. For an hour the faces of the
guests worked convulsively under the
severe mental strain, while the host of
tho evening went from one to another
chatting cheerfully and smiling bland
ly al the sight of others working. At
the end of the hour allotted to answer

served, after which the great fund of

built by Aliens Sons when it is COM
pleted will be the highest eminence in
the city, Notwithstanding the big one
which stands beside it. The new one
will not be as high by several feet as its
towering companion on the opposite
side of the road, but the difference in
location is more than enough to make
up the diversity of measurement of the
chimneys themselves. The new stack
when finished will reach into the air
200 feet from its base, being at the base
nineteen feet and at the top seven feet.
1t has now reached height of about
175 feet. 1t is reported that in the
wind that blew Tuesday the structure
swayed fully seven inches.

Inherited blood diseases are much
more difficult to cure than those which
are acquired. One of the most common
hereditary diseases is Scrofula, which
the. medical profession admit is most
obstinate and deepseated, and their eff.
forts to cure it meet with little success.
A child afflicted with Scrofu1a is always
puny and sick1y, and can never grow
into healthy manhood until the disease
is eliminated. Scrofu1a leads into con-
sumption nine times out of ten, SO that
it is important for this reason that i'm

good luck that is making them so
