Alleged New Evidence Against Luet-
gert, the Sausage Maker.

BONES FOUND IN THE VATS.

- /
Bloods’mined Clothes and Portions of a

Body Also Said to Have Been Dis-
covered Near the Factory—Ex-
amination Postponed.

Chicago, May 25.—New evidence has
been discovered which, the police say,
gives additional proof that Adolph
Luetgert murdered his wife in his sau—
sage factory and then disposed of her
body by placing it in a vat of chemi-
cals.

The police refuse to tell the exact
nature of the evidence which they have
found, but from what is known it is
said that they have discovered a por-
tion of the body of the missing woman,

as well as some of her clothing, and the
garments worn by Luetgert on the
night of the alleged murder.

: The evidence, whatever it may be, is
regarded by the police as of the utmost
importance. It was found in a small
frame building directly in the rear of
Luetgert's home, and about 300 feet
away from the engine room and the
vats in which the rings were found. '

Police Inspector Schaack said today
that there are a vat in the building and
several bins containing chemicals.

A quantity of clothing was also
found, and one of the detectives said
that some of this had belonged to a
woman and was believed to have been
worn by Mrs. Luetgert on the night1
she disappeared.

Other garments are said to have be-
longed to Luetgert and to be spotted
with blood. ..

It is said also that concealed in the
vat are portions of a human body. The
police will not give any details about
this, but it is known that they have
had a bone which was found examined
and that it is said to be a portion of a
female skeleton.

The importance the police place upon
the find is shown by the fact that they
placed a guard about the buildi. g and
will allow no one to enter.

It is also shown by the haste with
which the detectives who made the dis-
covery notified their superior officers.

The Examination Postponed.

The latter were attending the pre-
liminary examination of Luetgert when
they received word of the discovery of
the new evidence. _

After a hurried consultation with the
coroner they secured a postponement
of the case and went at once to Luet--
gert’s factory.

Assistant State Attorney McEwen
went with them. and for an hour he
and Inspector Schaack. Captain Schu-
lettler and half a dozen detectives were
in the building.

T‘Vhen they came out, they carried
several bundles. and at once established
a police guard over the building-

A witness has been discovered by the
police in John O’Connell, who, it is said,
will testify that he saw Adolph Luetgert

about the sausage factory between 2
and 3 o’clock of the morning following
the night of the alleged murder of Mrs.
Luetgcrt. ‘ '

'On the morning in question 'O’Connell
was on his way home. His way led him
past the Luetge‘rt sausage factory, and
his attention was first attracted by see—
ing smoke issuing from the tall chimney
at the rear of the factory.

O’Connell is said to have looked in the
basement windows and to have gone up
the stairs leading to the factory oflice
and to have looked in at the office win-
dows. .

Just what O’Connell claims to have
seen cannot be gained from the police,
but State Attorney McEwen vouchsafed
the information that by this \witness he

- would be able tovshow Luetgert’s pres-
ence about various portions of his fac-
tory at an early hour Sunday, May 2.

That California Catarrh Cure cures
catarrh; that it stops hawking and spit-
ting and the dropping into the throat;
that it cures the stuffed up feeling an d
all the other irritating symptoms.

Here’s what one of them says, only
one, but remember, there are others:

Mrs. A. M. Bedford, 27 Stuart ave-
nue, Norwalk, says: “ Several mem-
bers of my family have used the Cali-
fornia Catarrh Cure, which was ob-
tained at Plaisted’s drug store, and we
think that it is a fine medicine. I find
it good to clear the head, and my
daughter Grace, has found it is invalu-
able iu curing headaches, from which
she has suffered for a long time, never
having found anything that benefitted
her as this has done. My husband has
also used it for catarrh in the head and
throat, and we are all willing to speak
a. good word for C. C. C;, for we know
it is good.”
In cases of hay fever, C. C. C. gives
instant relief, and used in season will
entirely prevent the malady. Sold'by
