LUETGERT
IS SERENE.
Sausage Maker Says He
Will Be- Acquitted.
DID NOT GO ON THE STAND.
His Counsel Persuaded Him Not 10
Become Witness.
LATEST TESTIMONY PRESENTED

Chicago. Oct. 6.-The end OF the Luet-
CERT murder trial is nearer than was
thought. The defence yesterday rested
its case, and there is nothing TO come but
the rebuttal evidence OF the state and
the arguments Of the attorneys-prob-
ably about two weeks in all.
Soon after court convened Tuesday
ex-Judge Vincent and Attorney Phalen
asked permission 10 consult with their
client privately. Judge Tuthill said they
might do SO, and Luetg gert and his lawyers
retired 10 private room. 1t was known
that the matter under consideration was
whether or not Luetgert should go upon
the witness stand.
Ex-Judge Vincent vigorously opposed
the suggestion. lie pointed out TO
Luetgert that William Charles. his busi-
ness partner had told practically the
same story that Luetgert would tell At
torney Phalen was inclined TO favor
Luetgert's desire TO go on the witness
stand. lie thought that the prisoner
might be able To explain some things
more satisfactorily than other witnesses.
He also believed that the absence from
the stand OF the principal actor in the
tragedy might prejudice him in the eyes
cf the jury However. Phalen was will
Ing TO admit the logic of Vincents po-
sition, and Luetgert said he would abide
by his councils advice.
The first witness called after the con-
sultation was Mary Charles, wife OF
Luetgert's business partner She said
that upon several occasions Mrs. Luet-
gert had said 20 her: Il am going away.
Ny husband has failed in business, and
people will now point their fingers al me
and say, She is the wife OF the Sausage
maker who failed. l cannot stand
that"
ON May she saw Mrs. Luetgert for
the last time. 1t was about IL O'Clock
in the morning, Mrs. Luetgert again
said she was going away, and repeated
that she could not stand the disgrace
the failure had brought upon her family.
she turned away, and | never saw
her again." continued the witness. Mrs.
Charles further testified that the rings
found in the vat We're not Mrs. Luetgert's
rings.
As the evidence in the trial is practi-
cally all in, an estimate Of the relative
strength of the prosecution and the de-
Tense respectively is the sole topic of
discussion. we have made out as
strong a circumstantial case as II was
possible TO present" said States At
torney Deneen. ExJudge Vincent was
apparently highly pleased over the status
ot the case. I'VE have met them at
every point and checked them" he said.
They have failed to show beyond a
reasonable doubt that Mrs. Luetgert is
dead. In my judgment a case has not
been established under the Indictment"
Luetgert is confident he will be ac-
quilted.

ASAFE HIT MISSING.
Bostons Fell Woefuily In Last Inning
OF Second Game.

Boston. oct. 6.-The second game in
The Temple cup series was like the first.
distinguished by terrific batting by both
mines, but yesterday the Baltimores camo
out ahead through their ability 10 get In
the hits when they were most needed.
while Corbett, though hit hard, held the
home team down at critical times. The
game was much more interesting and
exciting than that OF Monday, and the
home team was very much I'm IL up TO
the last inning, when IL fell woefully
where one safe hit would have tied the
score.
No ground rules hlndered long hits
and the players, getting the full worth
OF these drives, ran bases daringly
without fear OF being called back This
added not little 10 the game. and de-
sighted the crowd beyond measure.
Again the perfect weather made the
game enjoyable. while there was only a
small kick in the last innings on account
OF the growing darkness. The orioles
won by keeping up their batting until
the last.
The shining star OF the two aggrega-
tions was Herman Long, the short
stop Of the home team. His stops were
fairly electrifying. and 1t is safe TO say
that such work had never been dupli-

the game. Nine Boston players were
retired in flies in that direction, and not
one was dropped. For the'visitors Cor

Hamilton came out with a clean score,
his base running being Of the finest de-
scription.
The Baltimores began on Klobcdanz
In the very first inning. and kept IL right
up 10 the fifth, when two bases on balls
and a hit were followed by home run
by Reitz. which brought in four runs.
Then Kloby came out and Stlvetts went
in, but the change did not seem TO mend
matters, for Clark banged the first ball
pitched over the fence for the second
home run. and Corbett followed with a
