What the People of San Antonio Are
Doing to Aid Them.
In view Of the urgent calls made to assist
the sufferers at Sabine Pass and johnson
Bayou and the wide publication of the notice
only six persons attended up to s::jU o'clock.
Two of these were newspaper men and one u
printer. This is not very CrCditable for the
citizens of San Antonio. From those present
and friends about S21 was collected.
Mr.. J. NJ. Nixon, who is indie atigHble in his
laudHble cndcavOrs to aid the sufferers, has
received and forwarded to the proper quarters
the following contributions:

Mrs. Alexander, box of clothing.
Mr. Nixon will bc glad to receive any further
contribution Of money, provisions and cloth
ing and fOrwuri them to the proper dcstina-
ton free of all charge.
The city council yesterday voted $500 for the
relief of the sufferers, although they had no
authority for such action.
Many people consider that tine mayor ought
to do. as the mayor of other cities have done,
call public meeting collect all possible from
those present and appoint ward soliciting
committees. Many citizens will give for Il
charitable cause, but will not put themselves
to any trouble 10 do il. 1t is TumOrcd that the
mayor will adopt this sensible course.

homes. The word was signal TO meet
and was only to be inserted in the
newspapers II no down right revolution
occurred. Fischer suggested a word
and II was arranged that the publica-
ton should be made in the ATbeiter

was appointed TO attend to the pu lea
ton. l only know one of the
committee, Vraemer. All who were
present at the meeting accepted the plan.
They voted by raising hands. Engle
put the question to the meeting. The
plan was TO be stated to such reliable
men as were absent. 1 reported it to
! some who came in later" Witness
was asked, Ibid you ever have
any bomosG" To this question
Foster, OF the defense, warmly
objected. Any bomb witness might
have had, had nothing TO do with
the case, unless it were traced to tn
man who threw il at Haymarket. Mr..
Ingham replied in q brief statement,
saying the theory Of the State was that
for months the defendants had been pre-
pairing for revolution about the lst Of
May; that they had been arming them
selves aud their dupes. The State in
tended 10 bring into court the dynamite
bombs and would show that these
bombs were used for no purpose in all
the wide world except cowardly and
attrocious murder.
Mr.. Foster-If you show that some
man threw one OF these bombs without
the knowledge or authority or approval
OF these defendants, is that MURDER"
Ingham Teplied-Under the law Of |
hesitate of Illinois. it is murder. The
law OF the State is strong enough 10 |
hang every one of these men.
Judge Gary, in deciding the point, |
said; IF there was a combination |
among a great number TO kill policemen |
II they came in contact with the working |
men or strikers. or were attempting to |
enforce the law and order, and prepar-
atoms were made to kill the policemen /
upon some such occasion, the decision |
as to when the proper occasion came /
being left TO the parties who were to DO /
the work. and some of these parties did
such an act. then all engaged IN the
general conspiracy are equally liable"
The witness then proceeded to answer
the question as to whether he ever had /
any bombs, and told how, about a year
and half ago, bombs had been dis
tributed to him and others by Fischer,
for use at meeting OF Thanksgiving il |
by the police. Just as 1t hap
