Vincent Would Eliminate Exper

would Eliminate Expert
Testimony from Luetgert Trial.
Chicago, Sept. is. - After finishing
the cross-examination of DIR. George A.
Dorsey Friday the defense in the Luet-
CERT case moved that all the expert
testimony the state had presented to
show that the bones found at the fac
tory are human be stricken out. Judge
Tuthill instantly overruled the motion.
This move on the part Of the defense
was in a way perfunctory, but had it's
value in permitting Attorney Vincent
to lay before the jury at this time the
proposition that the evidence is mainly
guesswork, and, what is more impor-
tant, that the breaking of the temporal
bone when sawed in twain by Drs. Dor
sey and Pierce destroyed its Identify
ing characteristics before the experts
for the defense had a chance to examine
1t and overthrow the states theory.
Attorney Vincent objected vigorously
to tho testimony given by Drs. Dorsey
and Pierce and Profs. Haines, Glib
son and D%elafontaine and moved that 1t
all be excluded from the records. Judge
Tuthill Mt first entered a sweeping de-
NAL to the request, but later conceded
that the opinion expressed by Prof.
Delafontaine that the bones are human
should be eliminated from the official
report Of the testimony. The states at
torney offered no objections, as he ex-
stated at the time Prof. Della
fontaine vas on the stand that the wit
mes was not an expert in anatomy.
Police Officer Kinder was the new
witness of the day, and testified to find
ing bones and bits of flesh in the fac
tory. He and Capt. Schuettler were
cross-examined by Attorney
Phalen.
The prosecution will rest Its case to-
day and the defense will open on Mon
day. The trial is expected to last three
weeks longer.

KILLED BY A MOB.
Man Who Assaulted . President
Diaz Is Lynched.
COMMON PEOPLE ARE THE AVENGERS
The Scene Was a Wild and Savage
Onc-A Score of the Lynchers
Caught-Gendarmes Were
without Weapons.

Mexico City, Mex, Sept. 1s.-A most
sensational ending to the attempt on
the life of President Diaz occurred Fri
day morning. Arnulfo Arroyo was
lynched by a band of the common peo-
pie who were determined to revenge
this dastardly attempt on the life Of the
president. 1t was an act unprecedented
in the history of this country. The
sensational attempt on the life Of tho
president Of the republic had a more
sensational ending than the quiet peo-
pie of Mexico ever dreamed could be.
AT n o'clock in the morning a number
of men belonging to the common people
forced their way into the municipal
palace, assembled the stairway, over
came the guards, made their way to the
Office of the inspector general of police
and killed Arnulfo Arroyo, whom they
found there. The killing was a wild and
savage scene and wild and noisy was
the retreat.
Lynchers Caught.
The assistant chief of police, who was
sleeping in the adjoining room, was
awakened by the noise. He arose and
ran to the balcony and fired his pistol
ms a signal for help. At the same time
he called to a policeman who was in
sight that he make an attempt to de-
tain the l%ynchers, who were making
their escape. The firing of the pistol
and the whistles of the policemen
brought other policemen, who succeed
ed in capturing a score of persons. 1t
was not long before the inspector gen.
eral and Inspector Villavicencie arrived
on horseback. When the police entered
the room they found the body of the
dead man lying in the middle of the
floor. 1t was literally riddled and
hacked with knife stabs. At his side
yer found a door bar and several
knives and other steel instruments. An
examination showed that the panes of
the window were broken. The men who
were captured would not say any,
thing.
Gendarmes Unarmed.
When Arroyo was surprised by the
multitude he was sitting in u chair in
the northeast corner of what once was
Gen. Carballada's private Office, but
which is now undergoing repairs.
There, mixed with the fragments of
window panes, was a long pool of blood,
marking the spot where Arroyo had
been stabbed. The body was removed
to the Fourth ward police station in the
municipal building, which is marked by
a trail of blood.
The gendarmes who were guarding
Arroyo were unarmed. II they had
been armed they would have fred on
the mob. Over 200 people penetrated
the building. When surprised Arroyo
was In a strait Jacket and could make
no resistance. He seemed too terrified
to speak.
