articles, charging that two young ladies
moving in the first circles had committed

| by Raymond Gilchrist, q son of Ok
| Attorney General Gilchrist, of New Jer-
| sey, it being understood that he was act
ing on behalf Of the daughters OF Thomas
| Gannon.a wealthy coppersmith. This even
| ing the reporter, Lenbart, was assigned to
report the session Of ~thevBoard OF Public
| Works. While the Board was in session
| Miss Mamie Cannon, the elder sister, stole
up to within reaching distance OF him and
| proceeded to belabor him numerically
| with Q cowhide. The room was quickly
in an uproar, the lobby taking sides with
the young lady, aud the officers Of the
Board undertaking to protect the reporter
| enraged the young woman. She was
finally separated from the object OF her
| vengeance, and was accompanied home by
her father and a number of friends, while
| the reporter, after the adj ment OF the
| Board, was accompanied home by a police
man. The affair has created q decided

CHICAGO, Sept. 28.-Afidavits to sup.
| port the motion for a new trial for the seven
condemned Anarchists were filed by their
attorneys to-day. The usual plea was
| entered that the verdict ia not supported
by evidence, and it is also urged that the
counsel for the State employed o form Of
6rQQmeQb WHICH Nhb CdlCulhbtu VI DI6lU'
| dice a jury. The chief point urged, how
ever, 10 the story telegraphed from Indian
| apolis shortly after the conclusion Of the
trial to the effect that a man entered a sa-
loon in that city u or two days before
| the Haymarket massacre and exhibited a
satohel, intimsting that a slaughter would
occur in Chicago in q few days. The the
| ory of the defense is that this mysterious
stranger had O quantity OF dynamite
| bombs, and is the person who, in all likeli-
| hood, threw the bomb into the ranks of
the police. The manner in which the jury
| was summoned, before whom the defend
ants were tried, is also objected to.
