LUETGERT CASE RINGS.
Attorney Accuses the Police of Put
ting Them in the Vat.

ting Them in the Vat.
Chicago, Feb. 5.-Attorney Harmon ad-
dressed the jury in the Luetgert case all
day to-day, and said he would continue
his argument Monday.
He devoted almost the entire day TO a
discussion of the evidence concerning the
rings found in the vat and before he
closed fatty accused Inspector Schaak
and Sergt Dean of putting the rings into
the vat before they were taken out of 1t.
Mr. Harmon's first point in regard to the
rings was that the relatives of Mrs Luet-
eert now acting with the prosecution, be-
sides his mother, his sister and Fred Muel-
Ter, while giving vOluminous testimony on
every other branch of the case, had never
word 10 say concernig the identity Of
the rings.
Mr. Harmon then entered upon "A long
and minute analysis of the testimony OF
Mrs. Anna Grieser Mrs. Sophia Tews,
Mrs. Ida Harris and Mrs. Angelica Schroe-
der, all of whom testified with more or
less positiyeness that the rings in evidence
were the rings OF Mrs. Luetgert He then
declared that the officers made thorough
search in the vat once without finding any
thing. Then Schaak said something must
be done" 1t was argued "He must hnd
something in that vat that the woman
wore, he concluded. Then he conceived
the plan of placing these rings there"
