the TRIAL OF THE ANARCHISTS.
Michael Schwab Is Called to the
Stand.

CHICAGO, Aug 9.-August Spies and
Michael Schwab were both on the witness
stand to-day. The rumor had heen current
that Spies would take the stand, ana served 1
to attract the largest crowd that had thus
far visited Judge Gray's court. Before the
court opened counsel for the defence retired
to discuss an important matter. Returning
fifteen minutes later, defendant Schwab was
put on the stand.
Schwab testified that he was only few
moments at Haymarket meeting on the night
of MAY 4th and did not see Spies, was not in
the alley, did not hand him package, or
walk west on Randolph street and then re-
turn. 1t was complete denial of the wit
nesseS for the State. The cross examination
developed nothing
Then Spies took the stand. He appeared
to be thoroughly self possessed and spoke
with strong accent. He said his full name
was August Vincent Theodore Spies, that
he was 81 years old and came to this country

Arbeiter Zeitung. He had been editor OF
that paper for six years and received a
salary of $1S a week. He was at BLACK

told the men to stand by the. union. While
speaking some one cried out in an unknown
language and three or four hundred men de-
tached themselves from the meeting and
made an attack on McCormicks." Spies
said he kept on speaking for short time
when he too went toward the factory, ne
said he saw some people behind some rail
road cars and others running while the
police were firing at them. 'Ihe sight OF
this" said Spies, made my blood, boil"
The witness declared that while he was
standing there young Irish man came to
him and told him that six men were dead
and that 80 had been wounded. Spies then
went to the Arbiter Zeitung office and then
wrote the article which appeared the next
morning.

Secretary Bayard Thinks Satisfac-
tory Adjustment Will be Reached.

BALTIMORE, Aug. 9.-Secretary Bayard,
who is now in this city in speaking of the
Cutting case last evening, said he saw no
reason why a satisfactory adjustment Of the
difficulty should not be reached. He had
been assured that such was the desire of the
Mexican government. Senior Romero, the
Mexican Minister at Washington, said some
days ago that his government would prompt
ly settle the matter. Secretary Bayard
seems to think that the difficulties in the
way have been created not so much by Mexi-
cans as by obliging friends and people In
this country, who, in their efforts to embaf-
rass the administration have suggested to
the Mexican authorities methods of opposi-
ton which perhaps they would not have
thought of.
The Mexican attitude in the matter, it is
claimed, has been greatly strengthened by
the efforts of Mr.. Blaine's friends to show
that Mr.. Bayard has acted with preclpltaney
and has been too exacting with Mexico. Mr..
Bayard, himself, feels strongly in the matter
and said with much impreSSivenesS that he
considered the principle involved in the Cut
ting affair to be one Of the gravest import
ance. and one on which the whole country,
without reference to party should be unit
The personal merits or demerits of Cutting,
himself, he said, had nothing to do with the
matter 1t made no difference whether he
was an angel OIL QarKuoSS OF dn anger VI
light. but it did make the greatest possible
difference to the American people whether
the contention raised by the State Depart
ment in his case should be maintained or
not. Mexico claims, in Cuttings case, the
right to try American citizens for offences
committed in the United States, and Cutting
has actually been convicted and sentenced
for publishing libel in Texas. Secretary
Bayard thinks this raises a very grave ques-
tion between the two countries, and if Mexi-
co.'s claims were once conceded no American
travelling in Mexico would be safe.
Mr.. Bayard is deeply in earnest in his de-
termination to resist the position taken by
Mexico, and he expresses full confidence as
to the popular approval of his course.
"My countrymen," he said with evident
feeling, will not be deceived by partisan
misrepresention. They will recognize the
gravity of the question involved, and will
never consent that one of their fellow -clti-
zens shall be tried by foreign power for an
offence committed in this country. Suppose
Cutting had stabbed his Mexican rival on
Texas soil instead of merely attacking his
reputation, does any one pretend that they
could have tried him for murder9 Certainly
not"
The case, Mr.. Bayard thinks, is too clear
for equivocation, and he has no idea OF re-
treating

Gus Conversations with Flynn,
Thompson and Squire.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-The trial OF COM
missioner of Public Works Squire was re-
sumed today Chamberlain w. M. WINS tes-
tilted to having various conversations with
Flynn, Thompson and Squire in regard to
Squire's letter Of resignation, and related
how Flynn pretended to burn letter i'll
Suuire's presence, but instead destroyed a
piece of dummy paper. Squire belleyed the
eliminating letter had been destroyed, ana
boasted to the witness that he could not be
turned out of office. The witness also testi-
fed that both Flynn and Thompson were
anxious to oust Squire from his office, alieg-
ing that he had net done as he had agreed ne
would do. Thompson had told the witness
that he (Thompson) controlled the office Of
Commissioner of Public Works as fully as II
he himself occupied the position. Squire
told the witness that he wrote the now IA
nous letter at the dictationof Flynn. Flynn
was not a good time for him (Flynn) to turn
States evidence, and put Squire where he
belonged The witness replied that to use
the letter written by Squire would be rulnous
to Flynn and Thompson, as well as TO Squire
Some time later the witness learned that
Thompson had possession of Squire's letter
and he met Flynn and Thompson together,
by appointment, to talk over the matter and
discuss what course had better be pursued.
Thompson and Flynn were both In fayer OF
using the letter ana turning oldte eVlucnoS'

CLEVELAND AND HIS PARTY,
Dissatisfaction of New York Demo-
crats-Covernor Hill the Coming
Man.

ST. PAUL, Aug. S.-Randall Burgess. an
intimate fried of Hubert 0. Thompson, said
teday that Mr.. Cleveland shad .little chance
of receiving in 1888 the support of the New
York Democracy for second term.
'There is great deal of dissatisfaction,
with Cleveland in all branches of the party"
he said, land with good cause. The County
Democracy under Mr. Thompson's lead nom-
mated him for President, but he refused to
appoint Thompson as Collector of the port OF
New York We think his course was cow
adly and ungrateful. Cleveland cannot get
the delegation from New York State in 1883,
and even if he should succeed in that he
would not receive the support OF the voters.
Tho County Democracy is allenated from
MN. M and Tammany has long been IN open
warfare against him. Governor Hill is the
coming man. There will be an effort this
coming fall to secure what we have not had
in New York for ffteenIyears, namely uni
ted Democracy. Governor Hill has the
power to bring this about. All obstacles to
his ambition have been removed and he pos
sesses the skill, management and ability to
secure the next convention. The coast seems
| inde ed, very clear for Hill so far as his own
| State is concerned. He possesses to great
| er extent than any other man in New York
| the confidence and esteem OF Democratic
VOTERS"

TOWN DESTROYED
BY Forest Fires in Wisconsin-The
Loss Estimated at So, ,ooo, 900.
A Hundred Miles of Burning Woods
People Destitute and Homeless.

A despatch from Marquette, Mich, says
that the city is in danger of destruction from
forest fires which make the air denseiy
smokey. Pendell's slaughter house. in the clty
limits has been burned, and the nitro glycSer- S
inc works of the Lake Superior Powder 20.
are surrounded by fire. Men are fighting the
fire with desperation. The day is oppressive
ly hot and the fire fighters are suffering
greatly.
A despatch from Neillsville says fires have
been burning in the woods in that vicinity
for several days. Farm houses in the neigh
borhood were burned and many families are
compelled to move into the fields with their
household goods. The fires are still raging
southwest and north of Neillsville, detroylng
grain and buildings. Particulars are hard to
get -
MILWAUKEE, Aug. 9.-For an almost un-
interrupted distance of nearly 100 miles
north of Stevens Point, along the line OF the
Wisconsin Central, forest fires are raging
and hundreds of men are fighting the flames
seeking to save towns villages are hemmeo q
in by them. Telegraphie communication is
greatly interfered with and details are mea-
gre. The complete destruction OF the town
of Spencer is fully confirmed, and the loss is
nowsplaced at $3,000,000. Several hundred
people are destitute and homeless: At Colby,
few miles distant, the fire is raging on both
sides, and required desperate of the entire
population to save the village.
A gale was blowing all day and several
times fires reached to within 80 feet OF
building, Tonight the wind quieted down
but the people are tired out, and if the gale
resumes the village is doomed. Tonight the
village of Prentice, in Marathon. county, is
surrounded by flames, and it is feared will
be swept out of existence unless the wind
dies down. Near Chippewa Falls the fires
are confined to the prairies, and no buildings
are destroyed; several farms lose their cross.
deserted lumber camps, isolated dwellings,
and much other property was burned:
Telegraph poles ale burned off, miles OF
ton between Milwaukee and points
along the northern division of Wisconsin
Central road is cut off. Besides Spencer
there are now in the way Of the flames many
villages that will be swept away unless heavy
rains come at once. Though no fatalities are
reported as yet, it is feared many people
must have perished in the backwoods.

MICHAEL DAvITT.
He Thinks that Home Rule is only q
Question of Time.

New YORK, Aug 9.-Michael Davitt,
who arrived yesterday from Ireland, says
that he is going to chicago To speak 10 tne
United Irish societies there on Saturday
next Then he proposes to rest until the
meeting of the National League, which he
will attend, but not as q regular delegate.
Mr.. Davitt does not attach any Importance
to the split in the ranks of Ireland's sup
porters in this country. He believes it to be
merely a local disagreement, which will be
easily adjusted. He does not think the over
throw of Gladstone is serious reverse. He
believes that with Gladstone and the Liberal
party on its side, Ireland can afford to wait.
The Tories will probably resort to coercion,
which, Mr.. Davitt thinks, will not be seri-
GUS evil, as it will doubtless cause a reaction
in Ireland,s favor. 1--WE have" he said,
Scotland Wales and the colonies on our
side, as we'll as almost the entire American
press, and we have now only to convert Eng
land. Home rule is only question of time.
We are bound to achieve it in the end" Sal
isbury's administration, Mr., Davitt believes,
will not be long lived. A new issue is sure
to reunite the Liberal party. About month
hence, Mr.. Davitt proposes to begin lecture
tour, probably in the West, and perhaps in
California He will confne himself to Irish
subjects, the home rule idea, and the condi-
ton of the fisheries in the west of Ireland

the race was started it was estimated there
were 10000 people on the beach, among whom
Hanlan was strong favorite. This prefer

and Mckay soon followed the ex-champlon.
The men at once got into position and were
finally sent off about $50 o'clock. Hanlan
took the water first land before the others
