TRIAL OF ANARCHlS rs.
Witness Waller Exposes Their Bloody
PlOttings-A Question That Greatly
Excited the Defence.

CHICAGO. July II.
crowd had gathered in front of the Grim
inal court long before Judge Gary made his
appearance this morning, while the lobbies,
stairways and first and second floors were
crowded with busy officials, witnesses and
curiosity seekers. The disclosures of Got
fried Waller were of character to excite
the interest of the public to the highest pitch.
The appearance of Waller as he gave his tes-
timony was very peculiar. He is medium
sized man. with dark hair and luxuriant, but
well trimmed whiskers. He has dropping
nose and clear brown eyes. His face was
very pale and bore an expression of shame
and terror as he unfolded his sensational tale,
revealing the secrets of the Lehr and Wenr
Verein.
When court was opened, Waller was again
placed on the stand. Witness testified that
the bomb was given him by Fischer, last
Thanksgiving day, with instructions to use it
on the police if they interfered with the meet
ing to be held that evening at the Market
street square. He kept it in his house for
two weeks and then exploded it in the woods.
Witness went to the Haymarket meeting
armed with a dynamite bomb.
/ At this point Waller was shown a photo
graph of an Anarchist named Schnerbett,
which he identified. and it was placed in evi.
dence.
Witness continued his testimony, saying
that Schnerbett was at the meeting.
'Did Schnerbett say anything at the meet
ing?'
ale said we should tell the other members
what we had decided to do. He said this
thing should commence in other places also. "
"What o you mean by this thingp"

the Bohemian Hall Sunday, May 2, Engel and
Fischer (two of the defendants) and a num-
Der of other Socialists were present Engel
submitted plan. &C according to which, as soon
as it came to a conflict between the police
and the Northwestern groups, bombs should
be thrown into the police stations. Then the
ri1emen of the Lehrnnd Wehr Verein were
to be posted at a distance and shoot all who
| should come out of the station houses. THAT
was to be kept up" said the witness, It'll we
| reached the city. We were to kill everybody
who opposed us. Some one in the meeting
opposed the plan. | don't know the man. but
he said it would be better to get into the
crowds in tn, CITY, then kill the people right
and left. Another man opposed this plan. He
said we could not know our neighbors in the
crowd, we might kill our friends by mistake.
Engel's plan was finally adopted by the
meetlng.
This witness was severely cross-examined,
but his testimony remained unshaken. He
said that no offers had been made to him to
induce him to testify.
On the redirect Waller was asked:
"Have you been solicited by the defence
within 10 DAYS to go back on your original
statement and meet them some place outside
the city or at Lincoln Park, and agree on
another story?"
The defence excitedly objected, and the
objection was sustained.
Witness was again cross-examinad, after
which the court adjourned.
