twenty-f four hours wc have received In
formation that may make another triad OF
Luetgert unnecessary" said Attorney
Phalen today. II will not reveal the name
OF my informant nor the location OF the
city in which he lives at present, but 1t
is within 200 miles OF Chicago and the man
is an ex-official OF the place. He Is posi-
tIve--absoluteiy positive--that he has seen
Mrs. Luetgert within few days. The in
formation, together with his Identification,
Is startling In It's drcctness. But we have
been startled so many times by similar
reports only 10 be eventually disappointed
that | will not believe the reports until !
see the woman he says Is Mrs. Luetgcrt.
We are investigating the story
IL is believed the information came from
Davenport, Iowa. Soon after Mrs. Luet-
gerts disappearance a report was circu-
lated that she was In Davenport. Attor-
ney Phalen called at the State attorneys
office 10 consult with State Attorney Dee
nan with reference to the Luetgert case.
Mr. Deenan, however. was not at his Of
nee. as his health has been somewhat af-
fected by the long strain OF the trial. Mr..
Phslen said he would much rather have the
case continued fer awhile. but II necessary
he would begin tomorrow.
No steps locking toward an appi ,atlon
for bail for L,tetgert have been made nor
will any be till after another conference
between the States attorneys and the law
yers for the defense.

YELLOW FEVER CURE.
DIR. sARANELLPs DISCOVERY Is A
REMEDY. NOT A PREVENTIVE.
Has Not Yet Tried II ON Human De-
inGs, hut II Confident of
Success.

New York October ga dispatch 10 the
Herald from Buenos Ayres says: Or. Sara
nelli. who has been in Uruguay for many
and who recently announced the discovery
OF n curative anti toxine COR the fever. has
been interviewed as TO his work by the
Aerald's correspondent in Montevideo,
In the first place. DR.. Saranelli states
that American physicians who have Teen
interviewed by the Herald as to his dis
covery are completely mistaken az to It's
uses. 1t is not serum to be used for In
incubation TO prevent yellow fever. but a
serum which he believes viii cure 1t.
| Dr. Saranelli SAID that he had innoculatei
many dogs. horses and other animals with
a serum which was intended to give them
mild form of fever and Immune them.
| This method he found to be SLOW. difficult
and varying IN It's results, according to the
class OF animal on which the experiments
| were nade. In order TO immunize horse
! he found incubation would have to be
male al intervals covering fourteen months.
| Then Saranelli turned his attention to
the experiments which resulted in the dis
coyery OF n curative serum. He first in
oculated certain animals in order 10 give
them yellow fever then tried bis curative
| serum with most satisfactory results. Sew
eral of the animals were almost dead with
| genuine yellow fever when the curative &C.
| rum was injected. In each case they re-
covered.
He believes that the same results would
follow the treatmene OF person who suf-
| fcred from fever, though as yet he has been
unable to make practical test on man.
| He states that human being will not
| yield 70 readily to yellow fever. There
fore he may have to make minor changes
| In his treatment after testing II,
The quantity OF serum for inoculn,ing In

lind that the quantity viii again vary. This.

This new serum, says Dr. Saranolli, II
compared with other serums intended for
J preventive or curative purposes, VIII be
| found to be far above them in efficacy,
! though 1t In not yet perfect.
Before announcing his final conclusions
