Michael schwab, who was arrested at t:e
same time az Spies and the other Anarch-
lists, was the associate editor Of that
blatant sheet, the Arbeiter Zeitune OF Clri.
cago. Schwab 10 bookbinder by trade.
1t was in 1883 that he became associated
with Spies on the paper. He owes his eitl.
cation to his own diligence and is an able.
fluent speaker. OF his personal couraae
little can be said, and Fielding, when asked
il he thought Schwab threw the bomb thai
killed so many OF the police. said: Il can.
not tell. do not believe he has the courf
age. have never seen it put to the test.s
His wife, or rather the woman who live3
with him in free love fashion, belongs to 4
notcd.Anarchistic family andjs an exiiefrom
Austria. Schawb is wild and ferocious ID
appeafance, is in fact typical Anarchist,
He has been associated with the Comm.
nists OF France and Germany, and knovs
from experience how to successfully oppoSe
the authorities. He is personally acquaint:
ed with Most, the New York Anarchist, and
doubtless gained many of bis ideas ironf,
that notorious agitator. Schwab was the
author OF most Of the editorials that in
cited the workingmen to violence, that apl1
peared in the Arbeiter Zeitung.

CANADIAN FISHERIES.
Position of Secretary Bayard on the I'm
pOrtant Subject.

Position of Secretary Bayard on the Inn
pOrtant Subject.
WASHINGTON, May 23.-A gentleman who
has talked with Secretary Bayard upon the
subject within q day or two, says that he
il as much interested in the fishery matter
ss either OF the Maine Senators can be. and
that he has great regard for the fisher
men. He expresses himself very forcibly az
TO the conduct OF the Canadian authorities.
He looks at the question as an American,
and not from party standpoint, and says
that there ia no politics in it, that the
action OF the department cannot be made
pub ic yet, but that he can assure any Con-
gressional friend Of the fishermen that
everything that is possible is being done to
protect their interests. With regard to the
refusal OF the Collector of Customs at
Digby to permit the Captain OF the
"Jennie" and "Julia" to buy herring there
to smoke, he said he had instructed Consul
Phelan to go at tnce to Digby and investi-
gate. Secretary Bayard deprecates any
attempt on the part OF the fishermen to
coerce the Canadian Government by a
resort to arms. and said that every step
in that direction would weaken the United
States and strengthen Canada. He hoped
also that the American fishermen would
strictly observe the local customs regula-
tions in Canada.

Tracking Parsons.

ST. LOUIS, May 23.-Anarchists F. E..
Bergemann. Martin Frank, Otto Fricke
and Gottlieb Joborossky, for whom war
rants were issued yesterday, were arrested
to-day and jailed to await trial on the
charge of having introduced and urged the
adoption at an unlawful assemblage Of
resolutions endorsing the action OF the
Anarchists during the Haymarket riot in
Chicago, 1t had been stated previous to
the arrest that these men knew more con-
cerning the whereabouts OF the noted
Chicago agitator, Parsons, than they
cared to reveal. This q detective states
that he knows positively. Parsons passed
through small town in Northern Kansas
soon after the riot with the intention of
going to Canada, but was obliged to change
his course on account OF the serious de.
lay to travel by the washou.s on the rail
roads, and started for the South, passing
ths ough this city on his way and conferring
with his brothers while here. If this should
prove true the arrests made here to-day
are important and will tend to substa an
tiate the statement telegraphed from
Florida that Parsons had been seen there,
presumably on his way to Cuba.

CHEYENNE, Wyoming, May GA Lea Ger
special from Green River gives the follow
lowing: About o'clock to-day a fire was
discovered in the attic of the store occu-
pied by Hunter & Morris, wholesale and
retail clothiers. The alarm waa immedi-
ate|y given to the Union Pacific shops,
which have a complete system OF service
pipes and hose reaching to the major por-
tion of the town. Despite the utmost
efforts OF the firemen, the flames spread
rapidly and it seemed for time as il the
town was doomed as the flames were aided
by high wind. The best efforts OF the
firemen and citizens seemed of no avail.
About 3 o'clock they got the fire euuder oon-
troll and saved the adjacent buildings.
SNYDER, Union Pacific yarf1master, and
JONES, station agent were badly hurt,
being knocked down by falling tilnbels. It

| CHICAGO, May GA morning paper pub
lished to-day what purports to be the tes-
timony OF Captain Schaach, yesterday
before the Grand Jury in relation to the
ins estigation into the recent Haymarket
alaeghter. This testimony as printed Is
sensational in the extreme, but is not in
credible, and it il anticipated that the
developments Of the next few days may
prove the truth Of much OF it. Captain
Schaack is said to have told the Jury the
following facts resulting from the investiga-
tiona Of the police department.. He had
Witnesses to prove that the prisoner Lingg
had manufactured q number of dynamite
bombs from material o. tained at the
office OF the Arbsiter Zeituns. Three per-
sons were associated with Linsg, one of
whom was under arrest. The second part
OF the testimony was listened to with
breathless silence. He said: II think that
] have got to the bottom OF this business.
In couple Of days vii! have it all, but 1
want q little more time, then can prove
beyond a doubt this Anarchist conspiracy
has existed here for years. There are two
divisions OF it-one is the agitating section
Money is set apart for it's purpose. This 10
caEed the Socialist section. Besides this
there is an armed party, an Anarchist sec.
tion. These drill and are trained in the
use OF explosives. Think can prove there
was well laid plan to sack and burn certain
districts in Chicago, Maya. It would have
been carried out but that the Anarchists |
lacked the nerve and were unprepared for |
the vigorous action of the police. The
men were told to set fire to certain houses
in the northwestern portion OF the city, |
and others were told off to throw bombs
INTO the police stations, while Others were

attempted to disperse it. l think / can

all with this. Houses to be burned in the
northwest section were to be selected in-
The purpose OF burning

o that section and to draw them away
rom the main point, Haymarket
|quare and the police station. The easy

he premature throwing of the bomb, for it
'as premature, and the determined resis-
ance OF the police, frightened the would-be

piracy. "ln the lookup, police station"

A Fight to q Finish in Which Nature Holds
the Upper Hand.
New YORK, May 22-The bantam weight
fight to finish, Queensbury rules, for the
championship, was fought in room in
Hoboken, New Jersey, last night in the
presence of about fifty gentlemen, mingled
with sporting and social proclivities. The
principals were A. Rodrigues, champion,
weight 115 pounds, and Billy Weldon,
weight ia pounds. At the call of time
both went to work without loss OF time,
Rodrigues showing himself to be the cleanest
hitter, but what Weldon lacked in science
he made up in strength. For tho first six
heavy work, but from the seventh to the
fifteenth round Rodrigues forced the fight
ing and tried to knock Weldon out by re-
peatedly swinging his right ON Wei
don's ear. In the sixteenth round, how
ever, Weldon got in strai.ht left
handler, and then swung his right on
Rodriguez jugular, nearly knocking him
out. Rodrigues came up very weak end
Weldon took the turn of forcing the fight.
In the seventeenth, eighteenth and nine
teenth roun Is it was a slugging bee from
the start to the finish, both men hitting
FOR ALL THEY WE'RE WORTH.
Welldon's eyes were nearly closed, Rodri-
gues' face was badly Eattered and both
were bleeding freely. In the twentieth
round neither man was able to give any
punishment, and it was easy to be seen
that it was only question OF which would
drop first from sheer exhaustion. At the
end OF the twentieth round it was decided
they should fight one round, and if both re-
sponded to the call for time for the twenty
second round, the fight would be declared
draw. Each did his best in the twenty
first round to win, but it was no use. Ex-
hausted nature could do no more and the
referee decided it draw. Time, one hour
and twenty-five minutes.

During the afternoon and evening the
Grand Master Workman perfected a
method OF procedure and order OF business
for the Convention, and attended to other
duties. A number OF delegates feel keenly
the fact that Grand Master Workman
Powderlv is overworked, and think that he
should be assisted in some manner. Two
plans nave been proposed, and will prob
ably he presented at the Convention. One
is that State Assemblies be organized in
each State to look after the affairs of the
district that come under their supervision.
they, in turn, being autiliary to and
under the supervision Of the General As
sembiy. Each State Assembly would re-
reive instructions aud supplies from the
General Assembly and distribute supplies
as needed by the District and Local As
emblies. The organization OF new Assem-
olies would also be a part OF the work to
look after and be guided by the State Or
ganization. The other plan is to have an
Executive Board in each State subject to
the direction OF the General Board. The
subject Of the most Importance to come
before the Convention is the relation OF
the Knights Of Labor to the Trades
Unions.

terrible Highlander >on the jugular vein,
and he dropped like log. Twice he rose
and staggered only to fall again. He was
knocked completely out, and was beyond
all hope OF continuing the fight. Even
when leaving the stage he staggered and
would have fallen but for the support of a

is thecomiDg champion. Mallahan offers to
hack him against any man in the United
