CHICAGO, May 2S-Prof. Mark Delafon-
taine, the expert chemist. has made a dis
covery in his investigation into the con-
tents OF the vat in the Luetgert sausage

the defense. In the sediment not only has
he found traces Of teeth but also a number
of flakes OF a composition only found In

the vat, is looked on by the prosecution as
the strongest kind of evidence to establish

maintained was wanting in the states ease.
