The ADsfehists' Trial.
INV telegraph 10 the Dispatch. |


CHICAGO, August 16.-The closing
week of the great Anarchist trial open
ed this morning insufierably hot, with
scarcely a breath Of fresh air in the
courtroom. Every inch Of space with
in the four walls was occupied by
spectators. Mr.. Foster resumed his
speech this morning by declaring that
he was not there to defend anarchy.
When he expressed that sentiment Sat-
.urday he expressed the sentiment OF his
associates. The verdict ought not to be
based upon the statements OF any coun-
sci. This assertion was made apparently
with view Of undoiDg the effect of the
statement made by Mr.. SOLOMON in his
opening as to Spies and his utterances.
Mr. Foster quoted the old adage that
"a barking dog never bites" Spies
never concealed his sentiments. They
were made public time and again
through the press. The man WAS talk
alive; that could not be disputed.
There must be something in the con-
sttution of the mans brain which made
him give ut,erance to his wild talk.
The man loved notoriety-that was all.
Mr.. Foster continued to argue that
the testimony given in behalf Of the
State to show that Spies was concerned
personally in the conspiracy on the
night Of the HAymarket attack was i'm
probable, and claimed that it had been
positively shown that the other de-
PENDANTS were not near the wagon whom
the bomb was thrown. The court sd-
iourned at l o'clock before the conclu-
sion Of Mr.. Fosters speech.

John Devoy's DenuDctatfOu.
TRv falsorunh IN the Dispatch.1


CHICAGO, August 16.-The Daily
News publishes communication
over column in length signedby
John Dewey, in which he says the
address read at the Ogden-Grove Irish
demonstration Saturday justifes the
charges that have been made against
the present administration of the
League. Dewey says, " 1t also brings
out into relief the aims, hith-
erto publicly denied, Of the set
of Nationalists Of which Alexander
Sullivan is the controlling spirit. That
address 10 q declaration OF war on Par
NELL" The address is construed by
Dewey ss q condemnation Of the peace
full policy Of the League and denial OF
Psrnell's authority or that OF the
organization of which he is the chiel
to accept on behalf Of Ireland any
scheme Of homs-rule thH may be pro-
posed by an English Ministry"
Dewey concludes as follows "Every
man put forward by the Ogden-Grove
demonstration for an Office in the Con-
ven,ion or in the League will represent
a bogus, pbysical-force policy, and
every resolution proposed by them will
contain the same person disguised a'
patriotism. Therefore they must bs
crushed, so that the national movement
may live. Their triumph will mear
war on Psrnell, begun when convenient
and the disgrace and ruin Of a move
ment filed with brighter promise thar
Ireland has seen for century"

President Cleveland, ia his letter to
the Grand Army Of the Republic at San
Francisco, says: "Please convey to
those in attendance my earnest wish
that the occasion may strengthen the
friendship and kind relations OF those
who by participation in danger became
comrades, and that it may tend to the
preservation Of their common interests.
The nations gratitude to the soldiers Of
its wars should never wane or anguish,
but it's manifestation should rest upon
motives worthy Of the subject, aud
should be. characterized by fairness aud
impsrtiality. | am sure the Grand
Army Of the Republic asks no more
than this, and while it may well regard
with wstchfui care the wants aud the
rights Of its members, it will crown its
mission by demonstrating to the people
of the land how completely the Ameri.
can soldier with the cessation OF con-
fiict may merge in the American citi-
zen. and how we'll prepared he is, in
time Of peace, by the exercise Of his
rights Of citizenship, quickened by the
risks and danger Of his couutry's de.
fence, to further protect her honor aud
to promote her prosperity aud pro-
gress."

But that is assuming that you are

ouestion which We bad hoped would not
be raised in Virginia, in view OF the
fact that at least half the Democratic
papers in the State do not admit the
truth Of the assumption. The "good

prevent the Democrats Of Virginia from

YUM Some days sgo the American
published the romantic story Of the
attaehe of the Chinese Legation who
cut off his queue and dressed himself
in American clothes to win the love Of
a fair American girl. 1t was also
related that the young girl had
only flirted with her Celestial lover,
and when she learned that be was in

ton. The young girl left town, and
the Chinese noblemsn was locked up in
Stewart Castle, which snow occupied by
the Chinese Legation. It seems that
this young diplomat, instead Of learning
to forget his love, became morose, lost
his appetite, and grieved until be be-
came heartsick. Finally he attempted
suicide, but was prevented from rashly
ending his existence. Yesterday, how
ever, he made another attempt, and this
was more serious than the first. Early
in the morning he arrayed himself in a
loosely fitting light-blue silk. garment,
then he took from one Of his bureau
drawers a hari-kari sword, only used
by Chinese officers when they fail to
win a battle. Procuring rope, he tied
one end TO a window hinge, aud then
made loop-kuot of the other end, and
mounted to the window.sill. The pedes-
TRANS about Dupont Circle noticed
him, and were horror. stricken to see
him jump from the window. The alarm
was given, and the Chinese inside the
house rushed to the fourth story, broke
down the door, and proceeded to haul
up the would-be suicide. The young
nobleman waSyasarly dead, but was re-
suscitated. In jumping from the win
dow the young man dropped photo

affair to-day. 1t is said the love-sick
young man had cut himself once with
