DONE WITH LUETGERT
PROSECUTOR DENEEN LETS THE
SAUSAGE MAKER OFF EASY.
He Suddenly Closes His CrOss-Exam-
nation, Much to the Surprise
of the Defendant;

CHICAGO, Jan. 25.-Adolph L. Luetgert
has completed his personal testimony He
stepped down from the witness stand short
ly after 8 o'clock this afternoon, when
States Attorney Deneeh brought the cross
examination to an abrupt close. The big de-
PENDANT had anticipated another day under
fire and the sharp that's alF' of the prose-
cutor surprised him. Details of Luetgert's
life, his morals, motives and actions were
entered into, but few of them had any direct
bearing on the actual disappearance of Mrs.
Luetgert. Asked whether he had or not
employed detectives to search for his wife
Luetgert said that he had not and then,
after some controversy between the lawyers
regarding the production in court of certain
books which the state claimed would show
dishonest transactions on the part of Luet-
CERT, the defendant was excused.
In anticipation OF sensational develop
ments to-day Judge Gary's courtroom was
filled with an expectant crowd. Questions
that constituted a serious attack on his
business integrity were put to Luetgert in
great variety by the states attorney and
at times the defendant became somewhat
perplexed and moved about uneasily in his
chair. 1t was asked of the prisoner, the in
quiries covering every detail, whether he
had not falsifed the books of his sausage
concern in order to sell it, whether he had
not burned the books, whether he had not
shipped goods from the factory in order to
defraud his creditors and if he had not told
several persons. including two of his en-
ployes, that he had laid plans to defraud
Foreman Brothers, the bankers when they
should take an inventory of stock at the
sausage factory. To all questions, however
Luetgert had but one answer: II do not rec
ollect any such thing.
Attorney Harmon, counsel for Luetgert,
did his best to shut off STATES Attorney
were, with very few exceptions, overlooked
by Judge Gary, the result being that some
decidedly warm language passed between
the court and the prisoners counsel.
Briefly told, this is the tale of fraudulent
transactions the states attorney tried to
show: After Luetgert returned to New York
he found he could not make the factory
pay. So he took much of the goods on hand
and placed them in a storehouse, while his
confidential man held the warehouse re-
had and falsifed the books One case al
legged is where he is said to have sent Otto
ToSch to Foreman Brothers bank to draw
81 200 under a fictitious name or a false
bill.
Following Luetgert came the entire police
force of Monmouth, ILL.,, a real estate man
and a daily newspaper reporter. They were
shown a photograph of Mrs. Luetgert and
swore that they had seen woman who
looked very much like the picture in Mon
Thompson. of Kewanee, will add her testi-
mony to the Monmouth evidence, and then
the defense expects to spring it's most re-
cent sensational man who will swear that
he saw Mrs. LaetgeEt come out of her house
between 10 and IL o'clock the night of May
| last.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-In replying to
a resolution of inquiry, the secretary of the
treasury to-day sent to the Senate a state
ment explaining the omission of the item
concerning the accrued interest on the Pa
citic Railroad debts in the annual reports
since 1880 He says the change made was
due to decision of the United States Su-
preme Court holding that there was no
debt on account of interest until the matur-
ity of the bonds. He adds that the month
ly statement of the public debt includes a
table in regard to Pacific Railroad indebt
edness, which shows the principal of bonds
outstanding, interest accrued and not vet
paid, interest paid by the United States, and
gives other information bearing upon this

GEoRdE e. ROBERTS.
How the New Director of the Mint
Earned His Position.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 25.-The new direc-
tor of the mint, George e. Roberts, earned
his place by the excellence of the books
he wrote on the money question during the
early part of the last campaign. He wrote
one extended answer to Coins Financial
School, which was largely distributed, es-
pecially in Iowa, and all during the cam
paign he contributed articles on the silver
question to his state papers and outside
of the smaller essays were called to the
attention of the President, who read them
with intense interest during the campaign.
successor to Director Preston, he recalled
the work done by Mr. Roberts and had
copies of his book furnished him anew. Mr..
Roberts is firmly committed to the gold
standard but still believes in the POSSIBLE
ity of international bimetallism. and his
books and essays show him to be in thor
ough accord with the President on this
question. Mr.. Roberts has never been ac-
tive in politics in the sense of seeking office,
although he was public printer of Iowa
during Governor Gears term. This position
was given to him because OF his work
editor of the Fort Dodge Messenger, which
place he still retains.
Mr.. Preston has been connected with the
Treasury Department for over forty-two
years and during all of the last admins
hut was relied upon to furnish the PreS-
dent with arguments and statistics as to
the relative production and proper use Of
gold and silver His reports. it is said, were
quoted more extensively during the last
campaign than any other government pub
as to his theories they seldom questioned

The mississippi Rising Rapidly.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. Jan. 25.-The Misss-
sipp river will in all probability reach the
danger line--thirty- three feet-by Friday
morning. Since yesterday there has been a
rise of one foot, the gauge reading this
morning thirty-one feet. Should the water
reach what is termed the danger line here,
no harm would result to the city, as Mem
phis is situated on a high bluff, but the high
stage of the rise would injure and retard
levee work in progress in the low lands to
the southwark and prevent the repairs to
breaks caused by last seasons flood. Such
work IS being pushed rapidly is pos
sible under the prevailing conditions and
with double working forces and good
weather the desired end may be attained.
There was a heavy rainfall hereabouts last
night To-day is clear and a big drop in
temperature is predicted which, if suf-
icient to freeze small streams, may result
advantageously.
Such is the volume of water in the river
