HERR MOST FOUND GUILTY.

Sentence Postponed Until Next Tues-
 day and the Anarchists Hustled or
 To the TOmbs.
 NEW YORK, May 28.-The court room was packed to suffoeation this morning when Herr Most and his associates, Schenck and Braunschweig, were brought in linked by heavy handcuffs to common thieves. Most looked particularly savage. He is greatly annoyed at the spread of the statement which the official journals of the socialistic party have been giving publicity to, that he (Iost was in the pay of the German government and his presence in this country was for the purpose of destroying the labor movements here Mrs. Louisa Schenck, wife of one of the prisoners, was the first witness. She said that she had family of twelve children, that her husband, who was a compositor, worked constantly for the support of their family, that he never was arrested before and had a very good character. Martha and Hedwig Schenck, daughters, testified that Schenck was g good father and kind hus- band. James Hincks, manager of the print ing company where Schenck was employed, said that the prisoner was a good workman and g quiet orderly citizen. Adolph Schenck himself then took the stand. He said the object of the meet ing was to advise the use of arms against force (the point being made yesterday that bombs only were to be employed in self-de- fense.) Under cross-examination he said the purpose of the meeting was also to protest against such action was taken in St. Louis, when hired deputy sheriffs shot down men and women. He asserted that he did not hear all of Most's speech and certainly not that part of it referring to explosives as given in yesterdays testimony. He admitted that he was an anarchist In answer to the ques- tion, (which do you consider entitled to the most respect, Herr Most or George Washing tonP' witness replied amid general laughter, ''The man who made the success" Lena Braunschweig, wife of the prisoner of that name, testified that her husband to whom she had been married eleven years, was of good character and worked steadily. Julius Rosenberg, cabinet maker, said Braun schweig bore good character among his fellow workmen. Braunschweig himself was the next witness. He said that in his speech he declared that the presence of po-
 lice at workmen's meeting was shame. He never mentioned anything of bombs or guns. Under cross examination he believed there something wrong in society, and would change it peaeeably or by other meth ods such as have been used before. He knew men in his own shop to be hungry and gave them his dinner.
 The defense then summed up their case and counsel said that Most desired to address the jury in his own behalf, right which he was entitled to. Most arose and said:
