Chicago Police Claim There Is An-

A Speaker Advocated a Revival of the
Use of Bombs—Then the Police Broke

in and Arrested the Anarchists.

The Leader Vows Vengeance.

CHIC-AGO, Nov. 14.——'1‘he police of this
city are on the trail of the anarchists. The
Reds have been closely watched by detec-
lives for months, and the result is that the
police authorities claim to be in possession
of facts which show that another con-
spiracy, which, if not nipped in time,
might again deluge Chicago with blood,
has been formed by the anarchist and
socialist elements.

Timely interference, however, has prob-
ably prevented a repetition of the Hay-
market tragedy, and although the police
at present refuse to disclose the facts,
there is no doubt that the situation was
deemed exceedingly critical.

This information induced the police to
break up the anarchists’ meeting IVednes-
day night and compel the unwilling Reds
to hoist the American flag, and even with-
in a bomb’s throw of the Haymarket
armed anarchists last night again met
the Chicago police. The result was a
most iguominious defeat for the men of
the red flag.

A Detective at the Meeting.

In consequence of the action of the police
Wednesday night it was decided to have
the meeting last night at Grief’s hall se-
cret, and those anarchists who could be
depended upon were told to quietly go to
the third floor, where a meeting would be
held. Up the flights of stairs in the place
indicated there gathered many Of those
who were leaders in the ranks before the
Haymarket riot. Speeches were made in
English and German. and the enthusiasm
was great. The American flag was not
there. It was thought that the police had
been completely hoodwinked.

A detective has been for several days
cultivating the acquaintance of the men
who were leaders during the exciting times
of five years ago. This man was admitted
to the meeting, and kept his superior in-
formed of all that was going on. Soon
word came that very inflammatory
speeches were being made, and that a
number of those in the meeting were dis-
playing arms and boasting of the use they
would be put to in case the police inter-
fered.

Tool: Them by Surprise.

In the historic Des Plaines police station,
a. few squares distant, Inspector Lewis had
100 men in uniform, and surrounding the
building in which the meeting was being
held were about fifty detectives in citizens’
clothes. Suddenly at a. signal given by
the man in the meeting a concerted raid
was made, and in less that sixty seconds
afterward the meeting on the upper floor
was broken up, and those who had been
making speeches to the crowd in the sa
Ioon were under arrest. -

SO quick was the onslaught that the
anarchists were taken completely by sur-
prise, and before they had time to recover
themselves enough to make any serious
resistance they saw the hopelessness of
their cause. Inspector Lewis and Captain
Mahoney marched at the head of the col-
umn of police officers from the station
and were the first to enter the saloon.
The proprietor, Grief, saw the bluecoats
as they entered and attempted to shut the
doors in their faces. His efforts, however,
were futile, as one blow from an officer’s
club shattered the glass and another burst
the door open, and the double stream of
officers poured into the room.

Tried to Shunt the Police.

“Throw up your hands,” shouted In-
spector Lewis. At the command 400
hands went into the air, and the Officers
commenced searching for weapons. Those
who were found to possess revolvers or
other arms were placed under arrest, and
the. others were hustled into the street
and told to at‘ once leave the vicinity.

One little fellow, who wore a flaming
red necktie and who had imbibed freely
of liquor, resisted the officer who attempt-
ed to search him. He backed against the
wall and drew from his pocket a wicked
looking revolver, and with a muttered
curse snapped it in the face of his captor.
Fortunately the cartridge missed fire, and
before the would be murderer could again
press the trigger a blow from the officer’s
club knocked the gun from his hands.

Another bloodthirsty individual endeav-
ored to use his revolver, crying curses
against all police and all law. When his
weapon was snatched from his hands he
declared himself an anarchist who was
ready to die, and dared the police to shoot
him

' Grief Vows Vengeance.

In the meantime a squad of police under
Lieutenant W'heelcr had started to ascend
the stairs. They met resistance from
Grief and from an unknown man, who
drew from his overcoat pocket a long re-
volver, declaring he would shoot the first
officer who put his foot on the stairs.

These two men Were quickly overpow-
ed and twenty—five stalwart policemen
rushed up the stairs and broke into the
hall in which the secret meeting was be-
ing held. A number of men were arrested
here, a large amount of inflammatory lit-
erature was captured and a number of

red flags were torn from the wall and de‘ ‘

stroyed. A number of officers were
struck, but not seriously hurt.

At the police station most of the pris-
oners were released, Thomas Grief going on
a. majority of their bonds. The amount of
the bond in each case was $600. As Grief
left the station he fairly hissed his promise
to wreak a terrible vengeance upon those
who had caused him so much trouble.

Proposed a. Revival of Dynamite.

P. H. Sullivan, the policeman who gained

admittance to the secret meeting before

' the raid, told Inspector Lewis that one of
the speakers declared that the saloon be-
low was full of Pinkerton men and police,
and that but for them an open meeting
could be held. He then proposed a revival
of the use ofdynamite bombs, and also a.
revival of the group system by which so
much was once accomplished.

Harvard Challenges Yale.

BOSTON, Nov. 14,—The Yale Gun club
has been sent the following challenge by
the Harvard Shooting club: “The Harvard
Shooting club challenges the Yale Gun
club to a match to be shot on the morning
of the 2lst of November, on the grounds of
the Springfield Gun club. The teams are
to consist of five men, each to shoot at
thirty blue rock targets, rising at five un-
known angles.”

ANOTHER EOUNUAR‘E DISPUTE.‘

 

Brings Suit for a. Slice. of
Illinois’ Territory.

CARTHAGE, Ills, Nov. 14.——Au important
suit has been brought. in the United States
supreme court by agreement of Governor
Boies, of Iowa, and Governor Fifer, of
Illinois.

The suit is entitled, “The state of Iowa.
versus the state of Illinois,” and its object
Is to ascertain the proper jurisdiction over
It strip of territory up and down the Mis~
sissippi river between the two states.

Iowa. Now

This suit is brought by the state of,

Iowa in form of a petition, setting up the
facts that there is a conflict of jurisdic-_
tion between Illinois and Iowa over said
strip, Iowa claiming that the boundary
line of said state is in the middle of the Mis-
sissippi river, irrespective of the channel,
while the state of Illinois claims jurisdic-
tion to the middle of the navagable chan-
nel, making a difference of 712 feet at a
point on the Mississippi river where the
Keokuk and Hamilton bridge crosses the
river. .

The suit grows out of a. long standing
legal war between Hancock county and
the Keokuk and Hamilton Bridge com-
pany in regard to taxes. The bridge com-
pany not only claims that it is unjustly
assessed, but is compelled to pay taxes to
Hancock county, Ills, on 712 feet of prop-
erty located in Iowa. It is stated that
Iowa’s eastern boundary line is described
by its legislature “in the middle of the
river,” while the Illinois legislature fixed
the western boundary line of the state “at
the middle of the navigable channel.”

Garza. Invades llchico Again.

LAREDO, Tcx.. Nov. 14.—There is much
excitement in military circles on both
sides of the river. , Active preparations
have been goin g on, but for what purpose
it has no: as yet transpired. It is said,
however, that Catariuo Garza has invaded
Mexico and entered a small hamlet near
Guerrero. Here he delivered a revolution-
ary speech and succeeded in obtaining a
number of followers. He then left the
town. He was pursued by the national
troops. A telegram received from. Nuevo
Laredo states that the government troops
overtook Garza and his followers at La-
guna Negro, routed them and went in
pursuit of the remnants. The capture of
Garza is hourly expected. He will, no
doubt, be summarily dealt with.

The Pennsylvania Alliance.

HARRISBURG, N or. 14.—The state Farm-
ers’ Alliance adjourned to meet in Wil-
liamsport next year. Resolutions were
adopted indorsing the Ocala platform;
demanding "government supervision of
railroads and telegraph lines; the election
of president, vice president and senators
by direct vote; making issuing of free
passes a criminal offense; compelling oleo-
margarine to he sold for what it is; to pro-
hibit alien ownership of land; demanding
equal taxation on all kinds of property;
prohibiting the dealing in stocks and
grains 'on futures, and to prevent adulter-
ation of food products.

The Rclmzscd Convict Miners.

MEMPHIS, Nov. 14.—Of the 461 convicts
released by the east Tennessee miners
293 have been captured. Of those at
large, forty are in this city and will be
likely to remain here, so far as the officers
are concerned. The state only pays a re-
ward of twenty-five dollars for the return
of each convict. Car fare and other ex-
penses make the cost from here greater
than that amount, and unless the govern-
ment increases the reward the convicts
will not be molested.

The Steellnahiug Record Broken.

PITTSBURG, Nov. 14.—The Edgar A.
Thompson Steel works at Braddock were
put in operation after a rest of two hours
foratwcnty-four hours run, to test the
capacity of the works. The idea was to
eclipse, if possible, the record of the
South Chicago rolling mills for twenty-
four hours, which is 1,700 tons. When the
test ended it was found that 1,907 gross
tons of finished steel rails had been pro-

Both Hanged to the Same Tree.

BRENHAM, Tex., Nov. 14,—A double
lynching occurred in the Yeagus Bottom,
near Gay Hill. The fnen lynched were
uegroes of the neighborhood, and their
bodies were discovered hanging to the
same tree. Nothing definite is known as
to the cause of the lynching, except that
the men were taken from a. negro dance at
which a row had occurred. The county
officials are investigating the affair.

The Train Robbers Still at Large.

WESTERN UNION JUNCTION, Wis, Nov.
14.—-All efforts to capture the bandits who
shattered an express car'with dynamite on
the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul
road, near here and escaped with perhaps
thousands of dollars, have thus far been
fruitless. It is generally believed that the
first accounts of desperate robbery were
not in the slightest exaggerated.

Sherwood Declared Ineligibl'ci

BATH, N. Y., Nov. 14,—Thc board of can-
vassers of Steuben county, have decided
that F. D. Sherwood, Republican, is ineli-
gible to the Office of state senator, as he
held the position of park commissioner of
Hornellsville within 100 days prior to the
election. The board passed a resolution
to that effect.

Found Murdered.

BRADFORD, Pa, Nov. 14.—Andrew Reil-
ly, a well to do contractor, was found
murdered near the narrow gauge track
that winds round Mount Raub. The neck

,was badly gushed with a knife. It is be-
lieved that robbery was the purpose of
the crime. 5‘»

TROY, N. Y., Nov. 14.—The decision of
Governor Hill, in the matter of charges
against County Clerk Conway, was served
on Mr. Conway in the court house here.
It removes Mr. Conway and appoints his

Gilli Slilllll li‘l BRAZIL

Internal War Breaks Out and the
Dietator’s Forces Are Defeated.

THE'REVOLT IS SPREADING.

the National Party Proposes to Concen-
trate Its Troops, ‘Mahc a. Combined
Movement on Fonseca and Drive
His Army Into the Sea.

SANTIAGO DE CHILI, Nov. 14.—-Civi1 war
has undoubtedly broken out in Brazil, and
the revolutionary movement is spreading
all over the country. Several provinces
are already up in arms against the dicta-
tor and a. battle has been fought some-
wherein which Da Fonseca’s supporters
were defeated. In addition to the revolt
In the province of Rio Grande do Sul, it is
stated here that the interior provinces of
Matto Grosso, Goyaz and Para have either
already joined issues with the rest of the
National party or else they are on the point
of so doing.

It is stated here that the plan of cam-
paign of the leaders of the National party
is that each of the provinces of Rio
Grande do Sul, Goyaz, Para, Pernambuco
and Minas—Gcracs shall concentrate at a.
given point all the fighting men possible,
and that these forces shall make a com-
bined forward movement upon the dic-
tator’s strongholds in Sao Paulo and Rio
J aniero, and, to use their own expression,
drive him and his supporters into the sea.
and elect a president of Brazil who will
govern for the people and according to
the people’s laws.

The \l'orst Is to Be Feared.

LONDON, Nov. l4.——Evcn the most alarm-
ing reports from Brazil are confirmed by
a dispatch received by a leading financial
house having large interests in Brazil.
This message, so far as untangled from
the cipher complications in which it has
been wrapped, says, in substance: “Affairs
look bad; upheaval probable; result un-
certain; scverai provinces revolting; troops
joining opposition; Fonseca can’t count on
navy; health bad; fighting going on some-
where; Fonseea’s defeated; exchange drop-
ping; garrison Rio uneasy; finance blue;
paper money under cloud; prices, every-
thing rising; presents strong (British)
fieet, good effect; Opposition gaining every
hour; much bloodshed possible.

From the above synopsis of the situation
it will be seen that the worst is to be
feared. Other and similar messages, some
of them giving more details and others
still being of a decidedly more sensa-
tional character have been received in
London during thelast few hours. Further
fighting is reported in Brazil, and the op-
position forces are again credited with a.
victory, but the spot where the battle was
fought is not stated, but it is supposed to
have been in the vicinity of Santa Anna,
near Port Alegre, the capital Of' Rio
Grande do Sul.

.Morc Towns in Revolt.

A number of other towns, in addition to
Porto Alegre, are reported to have hoisted
the flag of the National party of Brazil,
and large bodies of troops are being raised
in the provinces with the ultimate inten-
tion, it is said, of advancing upon the dic-
tator’s headquarters at Sao Paulo.

It is now said that Da. Fonseca’s idea in
leaving Rio J aneiro for Sao Paulo was
undoubtedly caused by the two facts that
he makes his base of operations there be-
cause it is near Santos, a port he is said to
be certain he can count upon, because he
can there prevent a. juncture between the
forces of the province of Rio Grande do
Sul; and, finally, because his advisers are
said to be of the opinion that the political
atmosphere of Rio J aneiro is not at the
present moment thoroughly beneficial to
the dictator-’9. health.

There is no further news from the prov-
inces of] Pernambuco, Bahia and Mines-
Geraes or from Los Catilinos, but on the
other hand, the reports cabled here to the
effect that they have revolted against the
dictatorship are not denied by subsequent
cable messages. On the other hand, the
garrisons of San Gabriel and Bage, in Rio
Grande do Sul, are said to have joined
issue with the National party.

Fonseca’s Denials Untrustworthy.

In view of these facts and taking into
consideration the continued strict censor-
ship observed over all telegraph and cable
offices in Brazil, no attention is paid here
to the denials sent out by Da Fonseca’s
orders to the effect that all Brazilian min-
isters abroad are to continue to deny
“alarming reports spread through Europe
in regard to restoration of monarchy and
disturbance of public order in Brazil.” If
the Brazilian minister here is ordered to
continue denying “alarming” reports as
to “disturbance of public order in Brazil,”
how can he do so when the orders sent to
him contain the admission that there is a
revolution in progress in Rio Grande do
5111? The fact is that the situation is
much more serious than even the most
“alarming” reports have set forth.

\VORLD'S FAIR. NOTES.

Solicitor General Butterworth has made
an explanation of his recent anti-Catholic
speech that is satisfactory to Chancellor
Muldoon and the \Vorld’s fair officials.

J. Allen Horusby, secretary of the de-
partment of electricity, who was sent to
Frankfort—onthe-Main to study the elec-
trical exposition there, has made a report,
which shows that out of compliment to
the Columbian , exposition the Frankfort
exposition was kept open a fortnight long-
er than was originally intended, in order
to give Mr. Horusby a chance for thorough
investigation. Secretary Horusby writes
that there is an electrical apparatus on
exhibition at Frankfort which, when put
in operation, will cause the eyes of Ameri-
can electricians to open in wonderment.

The imitation battleship Illinois, at the
naval pie'r in the exposition grounds, is
now rising from the water. Vl’ork is pro-
gressing satisfactorily on the hull. The
Deck will measure over all 348 by 69% feet.
This structure is to. cost $100,000 and is
the most original illustration of naval
architecture ever worked out.

All of the restaurants in the mines and
mining and electricity buildings will be
in the galleries. This was determined in
order to leave the ground floor free as far
as may be for intending exhibitors. It is
thought also that restaurants on the sec-
ond floors of the buildings would prove an
attractive foal are. It was also decided
that the restauran ts in the electricity
building be located in the two bays at the
north end of the hull. In each bay there is
to be one large dining room, surrounded
by several smaller rooms twenty—three
feet square. The balcony connecting the
two is to be fitted up for serving temper-
ance drinks Illill ices. In the great manu-
factures building about 40,000 square feet
have been Set apart for restaurants.
