TERRIBLE MURDER CHARGE.
Killed His Wife and Destroyed Her
Body in Sausage Vat.

Douy III u Sausage NaU.
Chicago, May 1S-Adoiph l.. Luet-
CERT, well known sausage manufac-
turer. was arrested yesterday after
noon on the charge of having murder
ed his wife. Luetgert made an assign
ment about ten days ago. and about the
same time Mrs. Luetgert disappeared.
1t was at first supposed that she had
committed suicide as a result of her
husbands failure and the river was
dragged, but with no result. The po-
lice claim to have direct evidence that
Luetgert killed his wife in the base
ment of his sausage factory, on Diver
sey street, and that her body was de-
stroyed in vat by the use of chemi-
Gals.
The police will show, they say that
Luetgert persuaded his wife to accom-
pany him to his sausage factory on the
evening of May /; that upon getting
her into the building he choked her to
death or into insensibility; that he then
threw her into a vat containing a pow
erful acid, and completed his work by
casting her body into an intense fire.
The main evidence In support of the
charge are two gold rings which be-
longed to Mrs. Luetgert, and which
were found by the police in vat in the
sausage factory. One of the rings was
the wedding ring of Mrs. Luetgert
On the day following the woman's
death Luetgert failed in business, and
the Sheriff took possession Of the saus-
age factory. Luetgert endeavored time
and again to gain admission to the fac
tory, but the deputy sferiffs refused
to admit him. The police claim that
he desired to get into the place for the
purpose Of removing all traces of the
crime. He did attempt to clean out
the vat in which the rings were found,
but the escape pipe was a few inches
above the bottom of the tank. and
the rings sank to the bottom below
the level of the pipe.
The police believe they will be able to
convict Luetgert with two or three
other murders Of women. His object
in making way with his wife is said
to have been desire to be free to en-
joy the company of other women.
