Succumbed This Morning After nn Illness
or Several Weeks.
Oeorgo F. Hatter, M. D., died nt about
throe o'clock this morning at his lioma on
Halt Oak street. Ills demlso was not un
expected. Mr. Matter had been ailing since
last Juno.but his condition did not otuiso ap
prehension nntil about five -necks ago, when

spend two weeks there in recuperation, but
grow rapidly worso after an absonco of a few
days and returned to town. Upon arrival

until ho died. Oeiebrs-spinal meningitis is
the assigned cause of death. Tlio patient
was under tho euro of Drs. J. S. Gallon and
D, J. Laugtou, and Dr. Carpenter was allied
in consultation last Tuesday, when it became
evldeut that tho chances of recovery were
very slight.
Dr. Matter was born in Qratz, Dauphin

man ho became a recruiting olllcor in the
Pennsylvania Volunteers and subsequently
accepted a hospital stewardship In tho 210th

sottlcd in Liverpool, l'a., and finally in
Willlamatown, where ho remained 17 years.
He then went to Virginia, but aftor a resi
dence of about a year and a half there re
turned temporarily to Harrisburg and in
May. 1888, movod to Shenandoah to succeed
in the practice of Dr. J. II. Davis. Unon
taking up his resldonco hero Dr. Matter
at once identified himself with tho

CAPITOL DESIGN SELECTED
The Commission Selects the Architect and
Work Will Proceed.
Special to KvK.xi.ia Hekald.
HAitnisnUKO, Oct. 22. Tho Capitol Com.
mission held another meeting hero this monv
lug and solccted Henry Ives Cobb.of Chicago,
as tho architect for tho .new Capitol building.
His design of the new state building was
adopted.
Tho fourteen Capitol plans havo been open
to public inspection for tho past two days.
Several Philadelphia architects explained
their respective plans to the commission yes
terday, but nono of the members were favor
ably impressed.
Tho plan adopted provides for moro light
than any of the other plans, and will, witli
tho proposed department buildings, occupy
less ground, and consequently will not cut up
the park so much. The adoption of this de
sign, however, will cost more than the pro
scribed $550,000. Tills is admitted by tho
author, who proposes that it shall not bo stir
mounted with a dome until a subsequent
legislature shall make an appropriation for
tho addition of this ornamental feature.
Mr. Cobb's plan provides for a legislative
building with a front of 112 feet and a depth
of about 330 feet. Tho design contemplates
ultimately but one building, with a frontage
of about 480 feet, which would extend about
forty feet farther than the two buildings
occupied by the department of internal
affairs and the adjutant general's and other
offices.
THRILLING EXPERIENCE.
Visitors to the Fair Narrowly Escape
Death.
A party of town excursionists who were
rcturulngjfrom the Lavelle fair last evening
bad a miraculous escape from death. Tho
party consisted of Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Maker and their five children, of South Jar
din street, and their guests, Joseph Syrad and
wlfo,,f Philadelphia. They wore about to cross
tho I". & B. tracks at tho Hammond colliery,
wien nr. maker heard the noiso of an en
gine. He looked ahead, but failing to see
any headlight, drovo on, thinking the sound
came from the Lehigh road. Justashodrove
on the track tho left front wheel of his
carriago got caught in the rail and snapped
off. As the driver was about to jumn out
be saw the headlight of an approaching P. &
u. engine a rawing rapidly nigh, lie called
to Ms mend, Mr. Syrad, and both Jumped to
mo iront or the carriago and reached
the horses. At tho samo timo thev
causea mo norscs to make a lean. The
fortunate occupants just cleared the tracks
as the train passed. The train was stonned
ana tno crow quietly returned expecting to
see a more serious situation of affairs than
resulted. Another exciting incident was the
saving of ono of tho boy's life by his oldest
brother. The former was about to Jumn
directly In front of the engine, but was held
back. All in tho party escaped Injury and
the damage dono to the carriago was slight.

The Sausage Maker Under Oath After
Ills Jury Disagrees.
SOLEMNLY ASSORTS INNOCENCE
The Expensive Trial Will Now Have to Be
done All Over Agaln-Luetgert's
Counsel Will Urge nis Ad
mission to Ball.
Chicago, Oct. 2L The Jury In tho
Luetgert trial came Into court yester
day and reported their Inability to
agree, after having been out 38 hours,
and were iiromptly discharged. The
jury stood as follows: For conviction
and the death penalty: Helckhold
Body, Bibby, Mahoney, Behmlller. Hos-
mer, Shaw, Franzen and Fowler. For
acquittal: Harlev, Jlolablrd and Barber.
Standing last night in the gloomy
Jail adjoining the" grim looking- grey
stone court building in which his re
markable trial had at last been brought
to a llnlsli, the uUrly sausage maim
facturer capped the climax of the ex
traordinary series of events which be
gan with his sensational bankruptcy
and the alleged frightful diabolism of
boiling: his wife to death at midnight
in a vat In his factory cellar. Luet-
gert made, under oath, a statement for
the press concerning tho fearful crime
charged against lilm, the llrst sworn
statement yet made by him. The affi
davit was put in writing In due legal
form and Is certified to by a notary,
Ex-Judge William A. Vincent, the
leading counsel for the defendant In
this celebrated caBe, tho man to whose
brains, skill and ehergy Luetgert be
yond all doubt owes his great legal
victory, gave consent to the affidavit
being made.
The scene in the Jail when Luet
gert took the oath was as dramatic as
the circumstance was unique. In the
dimly lighted jail corridor Luetgert,
standing erect and grasping the iron
bars that still kept lilm from liberty,
lifted his right hand and solemnly
assented as the notary administered
the binding form. Luetgert made the
affidavit without hesitation and signed
it In Ink with the hand that is al
leged to have committed one of the
most fiendish crimes on record.
The affidavit explicitly declares Luet
gert's Innocence. The document In full
Is a3 follows:
"The result of my trial, ending today.
Is a victory for me because of the dis
agreement of the Jury, but I am very
much disappointed and very much sur
prised that the Jury did not bring In a
verdict of not guilty, I did not kill my
wife, and do not know where she Is,
but I am sure that it Is only a question
of time until she comes home. I did
not go upon the witness stand because
my lawyer. Judge Vincent, was bit
terly opposed to my doing so and be
cause he advised me It was not neces
sary. I am grateful fur the tremndous
change In public sentiment In my
favor, and time will demonstrate that
I am not only an Innocent but a very
grievously wronged man."
Yesterday afternoon counsel for Luet
gert gave State's Attorney Deneen no
tice that they would today make formal
application before Judge Tuthill fop
M.u u.UHIOIUU VL U1B JiriSUIier Uail, ololAra
Judge Tuthill will be asked toMhtrr
amount of ball at $15,000, but Luetgert
Will enter court prepared to give bonds
of $20,000 if necessary. State's Attor
ney Deneen was not prepared to say
whether or not he would resist the ap
plication. The admission of tho pris
oner to ball is dlsoretlonary with the
court," he said. "After the applica
tion Is made In court I may express
my views upon the matter If the court
desires to hear them."
When the Jurors had received their
vouchers they were taken down to the
basement In nn elevator and loft the
criminal court building by way of a
rear entrance to tho Jail yard. The
Jurors left In squads of four. It was
reluctantly admitted by several of
them that tho dlagreement was brought
about by a wide difference of opinion
regarding the rings found In the vat,
the testimony of Emma and Gottlteba
Schlmpke and the testimony of Ken
osha witnesses, who positively testi
fied that they saw Mrs. Louise Luet
gert alive lti the Wisconsin town on
May 3, 4 and G. Juror Harlev did not
believe the rings found In the middle
vai or L,uetgert's factory were MrsW
Luetgert's rings. Holablrd was In
clined to believe the story of the Ken-
unnu. witnesses, despite the Imneaolw
nig evidence Introduced, and Barber
would not believe the strontr evidence
given Dy tne Schlmpke sisters.
'I he other nine Jurors reached an
agreement on the evidence shortly after
noon Tuesday and voted together solid
ly from time to the close. Altogether
over 30 ballots were taken. It Is said.
For his services each of the Jurors drew
$UG. During the eight weeks and live
aays service each or the Jurors had
made four demands for money, and
yesterday checks for $36 each were
nanuea to thorn in final payment.
It is quite probable that some nroae-
cutlons for perjury will result from the
Luetgert case. While the state's at
torney refused to affirm or deny this.

the testimony of two of in principal
witnesses ror the defense was laid be
fore the grand Jury for Investigation.
It may be that more than two people
am Included In the list, but it practi
cally Is settled that indictments will
be asked for against two probably be
fore the Luetgert case can be reached
for trial again. The two witnesses
against whom it Is said Indictments
will be asked are William Charles,
Luetgert' business partner, and Mary
Stammering, the domestic In the Luet
gert household.
"i'es, sir, we will try him again," said
State's Attorney Deneen, when asked
a to the probability of Leutgert being
brought before the court a second
time. "When we will get at it, how
ever, Is something I cannot tell you
now. We have had nine weeks of this,
and I must have a couple of week's
rest. After that we will look the ground
over and get our evidence together.
The case stands now with us as though
there never had been a trial. The sec
ond trial has no bearing whatever on
the case Just closed."
The trial Just ended In a dlsasrree-'
ment has lieen a moat expensive one.
The expert testimony alone cost the
state $6,000, and the entire cost of the
trial to the prosecution Is estimated at
letween $15,000 and $10,000.
