Sympathixers with Socialists and
Anarchists.
CHICAGO, July 27.-Fally 1900 SYM
pathizers Of the eight Anarchists that are
being tried before Judge Gary assembled
in the West Tselfth Street Turner Hall
tonight. It was the first Red Flag
meeting since the memorable night OF
May A, and there was considerable anxiety
around the police headquarters in conse-
quence. The entire force there was held
in readiness 20 answer any call, and a
good-sized number Of officers was in at
tendance upon the meeting. Captain
O'Donnell was present, and had about 4O
uniformed policemen scattered inside and
outside of the hall, besides many detect
ives in citizens clothes, but the meeting
WAS peaceable, and the proceedings were
regular. A. o. Bishoff presided. Speeches
were delivered by A. D. Simpson, DR..
| Ernest Schmitt and George Schilling-
all Anarchists or Socialists OF long
standing. The remarks of each were
evidently tempered with a due regard
for the police force that was present, and
were pretty strictly confined to an expatia-
ton on the set objects of the meeting,
which are summed up in a series OF reso-
l~utions that were afterwards carried With
a whoop. These resolutions charge that
! the press has since the 4th OF May, with
an absolute unanimity. clamored for the
consideration aud execution of the eight
Anarchists on trial. although they have
not yet been heard in their own defense.
| The resolutions further charge that the
press has not fairly and fully published
the evidence thus far adduced in the trial,
particularly the cross.exsminations of the
witnesses called by the prosecution. In
conclusion the resolutions recommend to
the organized workers of Chicago to fol-
low in the footsteps Of the Central Labor
Union OF New York, which is entering the
arena of political action for the purpose Of
counteracting repressive legislation that
the capitslistio class will, no doubt, at
tempt to railroad through our legislative
bodies.
Two Desperate Husbandss
LOUISVILLE, KY, July 27.-Just before
noon to-day John Koehler, 9 baker. shot
and killed John Carter. a polisher. and
MORALLY wounded Peter Haupt, a brick

and with love for Haups. He vent to see
her to-day at his old home. and found
Haupt and Carter in the house. He tried
to make them leave. and they threatened
10 eject him, whereupon he pulled his
| pistol and killed Carter and shot Haupt
through the head. Koehler gave himself
up.
Shortly after the louisville tragedy a
similar one occurred across the river at
New Albany, where Prof. J. G.. Strunk
shot and killed Charles Hoover and seri-
ously wounded his father, DR.. Hoover.
II il charged that young Hoover has been
too intimate with Strunk's wife. Only q
short while ago Strunk shot at Hoover,
but with no serious results. Hoover and
the father were returning from dinner at
noon. when they were met by Strunk, who
began shooting. DR.. Hoover was shot
through the groin. Young Hoover started
to run, but was struck by four bullets, and
fell dead to the pavement. DR.. Hoover is
a well known physician, and is a professor
in a medical college.
The Mexican Border Troubles.
GALVESTON. Texas. July GA special
from Eagle Pass, Texas, to the News says:
Revolutionary circulars are being distrib-
uted throughout the States of Tamaulpas.
Coahuila and Nuevo Leon, signed by
Francisco T. Case. calling upon his friends
to arise, arm themselves and fight the Diaz
Government, which is trampiing upon the
rights OF the people and the press. The
| circular says that q decree hos lately been
promulgated. giving Alcades throughout
u. &c. --o- 0ann~ 49, sho
| rights OF persons and property in violation
OF the Constitution of 1887, which Case
calls upon tho people to uphold.
The outcome of the Cutting case is being
watched very closely by the people along
the border here. who think the Govern.
ment has been very remiss in protecting
the rights and liberties Of American citi-

| will establish q precedent for aggressive
| measures hereafter on the part Of the
United States Government.
