ing tho materials therefor. Mr.. InEham
had not concluded when the court ad'
journed.
CuIc1ao, Aug. l6-In the trial OF tho
Anarchists Saturday morning, Mr.. lngham
resumed his argument Tor the state; he
said that the right Of flee speech did not
give the right to nclte TO Hnurder, ana
quoted Lord Justice Colerldges decision
in Johattn Most's case to show what
constituted incendiary language, and
held that Ficlden's speech ~ the nay
market came under this chsracterlza-
ton and gave ample grounds for the IN
reference of the police. The HaymarSet
meeting, he said was trap artfully lald
for tho police. The chemists had shown
that the bomb was of the same material
as those made by Lingg, and there
was no doubt but that Llngs
made the one that was thrown at the riot.
All the prisoners had been connected with
the hurting Of the fatal missile. 1t mat
tered little from what exact spot 1t had
been thrown The fact that it was thrown
by fellow-conspirator Of the defendants
was sufficient and all the prisoners were
equally guilty with the thrower
As far as Gilmer was concerned Mr.. ing
ham thought the jury would prefer to be,
| lieve the man, who, under the stars ana
| Stripes, he'd barred his breast to the bullets
of IN en9fn ies.of hts country rather than
the enemies of all governments who
| marched under the black flag that meant
| for men death, childhood mutilation, and
women rape. Mr.. lnghan's peroratlon
was an eloquent appeal TO the jury 10 be
courageous enough to see that the law was
| vindicated.
Mr.. Foster followed for the defense He
made an eloquent plea to the jury to cas- 7
aside all prejudice arising from hatred oi

| He had no defense to make for Social

pernicious, and Anarchism is damnable,
lingg had manufactured bombs and he
ought to be punished therefor; but he was
on trial for throwing, not manufacturing
bombs Spies, Schwab and Fischer had
no business to preach social reVolu
ton in America. If they were not
satisfied with the state of thing.
here they ought to have gone back to Ger
many and tried to reform things there
Mr.. Fieden might have found occupation
in teaching his brother Englishmon to b'
lust to ireland. Parsons he rebuked III
an eloquent passage for his lack of patriot
ism.
Mr.. Foster proceeded to define the issue
of the trial as he understood 1t and as be
wished the jury to understand It,. lie a /
mtted the moral responsibility OF some o
the prisoners for tine crime. He denieC
their legal responsibility. He made III
point that the investigation should have
been limited to the evidence directly bear
