George Rodgers, member Of the State
Executive Board Of the Knights OF Labor
and prominent organizer Of the order
says:
The verdict brings no shock to the labor
movement. The convicted Anarchists
have not held for years legitimate place
among the friends Of the laboring man
and when they drop out they will leave NO
hole to fill. | am not among those who
affect 10 believe that the men will not
hang. ! think they will, nor do ques.
ton the Righteousness Of the verdict. Il
has been boasted that the K. OF L. will
interfere with an attempt to save Parsons,
but do not believe 1t. The Knights will
not take any part In the affair as an or
ganization.
In an interview published to-day GuStay
Belx, the present managing editor OF the
Arbsiter Zeitung, asserts his belief that the
trial was not conducted properly, and says
the Anarchists think money was 0 large
factor in the result. Mr.. Belz added that
nearly s., 600 had been subscribed to the
defense fund, and the services OF the law.
yers up TO date will cost 5000. At the
late picnic 81, 900 additional was added 10
the fund, and Belz thought money would
pour In after to-day.
Another paper publishes an interview
with States Attorney Grinnell, In which
he says: avery rigid measures will be
adopted against the Arbeiter Zcitung. Any
reference 10 alleged bribery OF the Jury OF
other inCendiary uttsrances will cause its
instant suppression. We are going 10 sec
this matter clear through"

Chicago has only commenced, and before

In jail, hung or driven out Of the city,"
"Did you place any men under arrest

"That DO not wish 10 tell"
"rhe report is that you have secured
warrants for the arrest Of large number
Of persons"

how foolish the idea would be. We have

"ftdid-just ior that and nothing else. /,
"Wete you on that commlttse2"
"And you anticipated this bomb throw

being made and We knew IhS Action oii6I
