WHO WAS THE BOMB THROWER.
What an Attorney of the Chicago Anarchists
Says About SaOon-Keeper Deluse's Story.

In an interview which appeared in the Chicago
News yesterday, Mr.. Zeisler, one of the attor-
neys of the condemned Anarchists, is credited
with saying. upon learning of the story of sa-
oon-keeper Deluse, Of this city, regarding the
threats of strange visitor to his place Of bust
ness day or two before the destructive bomb
was thrown, THAT fits in with our idea ex-
actly We have believed ell along that some one
totally unconnected with the defendants threw
the bomb. The description given of the man in
Indianapolis tallies, as far as it goes with that
given by Bennett on the stand. No one in Indi-
annapolis has communicated with us regarding
the matter yet, but we shall undoubtedly look
into it. If we could find the bomb -thrower, and
show that he had nothing to do with the de-
PENDANTS it would make all the difference in the
world. I don't believe Schnaubelt threw the
bomb, and don't think the jury thought so.
either. OF course. the Indianapolis man may
not have been the one, yet believe the bomb
was thrown by some such person.
Parsons, it will be remembered had Just re-
turned from Cincinnati at the time Of the Hay
market meeting. He came via Indianapolis and
some people think that he may have been the
one referred to in the dispatch. He says that he
did not stop there at ALL and that he was not the

1t starts as a climber upon the trunk of large
forest trees, and owing to its marvelously rapid
growth, soon reaches the lower branches. Then
it begins to throw ont numerous shoots, which
ertwine themselves all around the trunk and
branches, and also aerial tendrls. which, as soon
as they reach the ground, become rooted in the
soil. In the course of few years this gigantic
parasite will completely envelope the trunk of
the tree which has upheld it and eventually kill
it. The whole dead tree rots away, leaving the
hollow matapalo, which continues to flourish
standing alone.

land the meeting came about very
much as you describe it. George McDougal told
me that he made his way for the most part,
through the interior of South America to Pata-
gonia, his long residence among the Indians of
the north continent qualifying him perfectly for
so adventurous journey. His descriptions of
that semifabulous tribe of supposed giants, their
modes of life. travel and war. would make an
interesting story. As to the legendary and
long credited notion of their gigantic stature, he
said that the northern tribes. in the warmer
gions, were usually taller and heavier than the
average or native or imported races; but those
along the straits and on Terra del Fuego were
no larger than other people of cold and unhos-
pitable climates But, being largely nomadic
the upper tribes were often residents for a time
in the lower and less favored regions. The
west coast, from Cape Horn to Chit, is the
worst cut UP section Of the planet by straits and
bays. islands and peninsulas, and the residents
of these. so far he could learn,
smaller men than the continental tribes. This
is my recollection of his description Of the stat
