A bitterly cold winter set in. Long
unemployment resulted in terrible

On the evening of May 4th. the
anarchists held a meeting in the
shabby, dirty district known to later
history as Hay-market Square. All
about were railway tracks. dingy
saloons and . the dirty tenements of
the poor. A half a block away was
