CHICAGO, Sept, 7.-Adolph Luotgert was in a
cross mood to-day. The reading oil his letters
to Mrs. Christina Feldt angered him, ana no
snapped at his counsel. the bailihs, and others
who had dealings with him. After reading OF
parts Of Luetgert's letters to her, Mrs. Foidt
was recalled to the stand. She admitted that
before his arrest Luetgert had placed $4,000 in
her hands for safo keeping, and she was unable
to give a satisfactory explanation MS to how she
had disposed of II. She promised to produce re-
ceipts for all OF it, but tho defendants lawyers
say she cannot.
Nicolaus Tabor followed Mrs. Feldt and testi-
fed that he saw Mr.. and Mrs. Luetgert go into
the sausage factory the night OF May i between
10 and IL o'clock. He said no was we'll &C

a look at the map. when Deputy Jailor Reid at
tempted to detain him. Luetgert roughly shook
shoulder, and said: 49,.
"You dog, let me alone: you are mot on trial

The sausage maker grew white with rage. and
even after he had looked at the chart and had
resumed his seat he continued his TRADE against
the deputy. Attorney Vincent was forced to
whisper words of caution into his clients car
before the angry man reclaimed his usual com
posture. Luctgert's, outburst of passion was
plainly noticed by The jury, and every person in
the audience stood up during the commotion
that was created.
Faber admitted receiving various sums Of
money from Inspector Shack from time to
time. but denied that he had boosted that he
could make more money. working for the po-
lice than in any other way"

Fritz Feigel, an cXpressman. kept his horse in
Luetgert's stable and did odd jobs OF expressing

load of ashes from the factory. In the ashes. the
police assert, fragments OF human bones were
found. Feigel did not know whether the ash
barrels were placed in his wagon on Sunday or
