those who have studied the matter say
il will not exceed $4,000. The bank
still remains unopened. Much of Nor
tors property has been attached several
times over by the depositors in the
hope of realizing something on it. Bust
ness in the town has been paralyzed By
the failure, small merchants and work
ing people having all their funds tied
up in the bank. Nothing has yet been
learned of Norton's whereabouts.

TWO GIRLS KILLED.
Awful Result Of a Boiler Explosion n Z
MOrtOa, Ill.

Peoria, H., Sept. 6.-Morton, Taze-
we'll county, ten miles from Peoria, was
the scene of a terrible explosion Sun
day afternoon. Tillie and Emma Boyer
were killed outright, and Albert Beyer,
Frank Boyer, Cassie White and Mrs.
Louis Moschel were badly injured. The
Boyer boys will probably die. The
boilers in a brick building used as n
mill, electric light power house and
pumping station exploded, demolishing
the building and damaging the water
tower, $50 feet distant. Houses for
blocks were also damaged. Fireman
George Grimm entered the builing few
minutes before five o'clock, started the
fires in the boiler and then went home
for supper. He says there was %
pounds of steam and cannot explain
what caused the explosion, The Boyer
children were playing in the yard next
to the mill and were unable to get away.
The boiler caught one of the little girls
and carried her $50 feet, she landing
on the top of a barn. She was crushed
TO pieces. Flying iron crushed the skull
of her sister, killing her outright.

dence to warrant this. The woman
realized the position in which she had
been placed by Luetgert and deter
mined to place herself right before the
public.
Luetgert was visibly affected by the
appearance of Mrs. Feldt as a witness.
His effort to appear unconcerned was
painful. Slowly the great drops of per-
spiration came upon his forehead and
trickled down his wrinkled face and
ran down his huge neck. The fear that
showed in his face was intense He
tried to laugh, and it was a hollow
sham. Then he sank deep down in his
chair and diligently wiped from his
face the perspiration that was coursing
down ii. The blow had struck home.
Gottlieba Schimpke, ii years of age,
testified that on the night of the disap-
pearance of Mrs. Luetgert she saw at
about IL o'clock, as she was returning
from a dance. the defendant and his
wife enter the factory This was at u
time when the Waterman was absent,
Luetgert having sent him on an errand
10 a drug store. On cross-eXamination
the girl broke down badly, and denied
several things she had previously said.
She was given time to compose herself,
and took the chair again. She broke
down a second time, and then the court
took matters into his own hands, and
asked her if she saw Mrs. Luetgert en-
ter the factory that night in company
with her husband. She was very posi-
tive that she had seen them.

THE LUETGERT TRIAL.
summary of Testimony Given by
Witnesses for the Persecution.

Chicago, Sept. 4. - Yesterday was the
fifth day in the trial of Adolph Luetgert,
the sausage maker, charged with MUIR
dering his wife and destroying her re-
mains in a vat in his factory. Thus far
witnesses for the prosecution have
sworn that Luetgert hated his wife,
that his actions on the night of May
were suspicious, that stuff found in the
vat contained flesh and bones, efforts
of the police to find the missing woman
have been futile, and rings found in the
vat have been identified by a friend of
Mrs. Luetgert as belonging to the sup
posed murdered woman.

COST OF THE STRIKE.
IL In Estimated That the Miners Hnvo
Lost xIO.5OO.OOO.

Pittsburgh, Pa, Sept. Cit is safe to
say that the miners strike will end
within a week. 1t is understood here
that the national officials of the miners
union are willing TO accept the opera
tors offer of a compromise at 65 cents,
an advance of IL cents, although the
strikers wanted 90 cents. The Pitts
burgh miners, or majority of them,
are still insisting upon the 69-cent rate,
but as their delegates to the Columbus
convention will go uninstructed it is
probable they will be persuaded to vote
for the compromise.
The battle has been costly one for
the strikers, according TO estimates
made by their own officials. 1t is hoped
work will be resumed by Friday next,
just ten weeks since the strike ordered
went into effect, and in that time the
strikers have lost in wages $10,50o,000.
1t is estimated that in the bituminous
coal districts of the country, including
Pennsylvania, Ohio, West Virginia, In
diana, Illinois, Iowa and other states,
10000 men were idle. The average earn
ings of the men is put at 81 40 day.
III the compromise is accepted II VIII
take two years of steady work for the
strikers 10 recover what they have lost.
Although the strikers are by far the
heaviest losers. the operators claim that
they too have lost, or rather will lose,
81 100000. The operators say that up
to date they have lost no money, be-
cause they have been able TO sell at
fancy prices immense piles of slack and
mine refuse that is ordinarily worth
nothing. But the advance of IL cents
proposed will result in their filling a
number of large contracts at loss, and
for this there is no remedy until new
contracts are made. The operators
say there is but 100000 tons yet to be
shipped to the lakes under contract,
but they are afraid they will not be able
to get it out in time, because there will
be a shortage of cars just as soon as the
miners resume work.

RATHER COOL FOR CORN.

Chicago, Sept. 1.-The reports as To
III condition of the crops throughout
the country, and the general effect of
the weather on the growth. cultivation
and harvest of the same. were Tuesday
made by the directors of the several cli-
mate and crop sections. The reports
received al Chicago were as follows:
Michigan-Corn maturing very slowly be-
cause OF cool temperature. Soil rather hard
and dry for blowing Rain also needed for
pastures and potatoes. Beans a fine crop
and pulling begun. Buckwheat remains
promising. Fall seeding commenced.
Indiana-Nights too cool for corn. I'd
beneficial rains fell only i'm localities OF the
central and northern portions, and corn
in general needs rain. Early corn is ma
turing well. late corn is yet small Po-
tatoes are a failure. Good crops OF clover
seed and millet secured. Fall blowing
retarded south by progressing well north.
Illinois Temperature below normal
in northern, nearly normal in ex-
treme southern. and about normal

ties. Only light scattered showers.
and good general rain much needed I'm all
sections Corn making slow growth, some
ripening prematurely. and dry weather
and bugs have damaged many fields. Po-
tatoes and pastures are poor; but little
blowing can be done: fruits and melons
abundant; fair crop broom corn being
cut.
Iowa-Warm, bright days. cool nights.
and drought generally unbroken. Corn
on dry uplands badly fired and early plant

more moisture and warmth. and rain
much needed for potatoes and pastures.
Weather favorable for harvesting prairie

MIGRANTS BURNED TO DEATH:
Set Fire to n North Dakota Jail and
Three Perish in the FInmes.

Fargo, N. d., Sept. Cramps began
to rob and pillage stores at Conway, a
small town in western Walsh county,
Saturday afternoon. The city marshal
and posse captured three of the ring
leaders after a hard fight and placed
them in the city Jail. At one o'clock
Sunday morning the Jail was discovered
on fire and before the flames could be
extinguished one of the Migrants was
cremated and the other two have since
died of frightful burns. 1t is supposed
the men tried to burn hole through
which they could escape and the blaze
got beyond their control.

and vows of fidelity. They Informed
the woman that if she would stand by
Luetgert he would go away with her
when the trouble was over and they
would ever after be happy in each
others company.
Luetgert was placed in the strong
light of lover who was waiting TO
gain his freedom to join the woman
with whom he was infatuated. Dear
precious Cristine" his letters were ad-
dressed. Their effect upon the jury
was remarkable. Here was n man
charged with the murder of his wife
posing as the lover of another woman
and writing her letters which showed
that their relations dated far back of
the alleged crime. Luetgert trusted the
wealthy widow. He expected that she
would furnish him the money to pay for
his defense, and when he had gained
his freedom they would be happy to-
gether.
How the state induced the woman to
desert the man who felt that he had the
right to send her such letters did not
appear. Until recently she was con-
sidered the strongest and stanchest
friend the defendant had. 1t even had
been limited that she was cognizant
of the sausage makers guilt. 1t was
known that she had been forbidden the
house by the wife of the defendant. 1t
was also known that she had supplied
him with money while in Jail and had
lent him money before his trouble
came. 1t was the original purpose of
the state to make Christine Feldt the
motive for the crime. There was evi.

Christine Feldt, in whom the state pre-

furnished the most sensational episode
OF the hearing. She related declara-
tons made by the defendant which
tended strongly to show that he pur-
posed doing violence to his wife as soon
as his business troubles were over and
settled. She produced letters which he
had written to her while in Jail. They
