CHICAGO, June 23.-The Nsws To day
prints an account OF the movements OF An.
arChIst Parsons since the night of the
Haymarket riot, It says that when the
bomb exploded Parsons lespsd from the
wagon and ran to his home, No. 245 West
Indiana street, Here he held q confer.
encs with his wife, and they decided that
his flight WAS necessary. BY morning he
was on the Rock Island train, with a ticket
to Omaha. His disguise was thorough
and unique. Parsons hair and mustaChe
are irOn.gray in color, but personal vanity
has ever led him to the use OF a hair dye,
aud even his most intimate acquaintance 8
have known and described him as dark.
haired mau. Before leaving his home on
the night Of his fight he removed the dJ .
from his hair aud mustaChe. The result
was thorough change in appearance.
On reaching Omaha, Parsons went di.
reCtly to the hume OF Anton Ruhe, the
patron OF Nebraska Anarchists, and the
proprietor Of suburban road house. Up
to hat time the anxiety to apprehend
Parsons had not reached the pitch 1t at.
tanned subsequently, aud no one had
started In pursuit Of the Anarchist. The
newspapers kept him informed Of the
progress OF public sentiment and the
growth Of the desire Ia Chicago for his
return. He then took alarm, and through
Lhemediation oil Ruhe a refuge on
farm near Papillion, small town twenty
miles west OF Omaha. There he remained
until Friday last, when, yielding to the
advice Of Captain Black, he started for
Chicago. He boldly entered Omaha, pur.
chased his ticket, and made the journey
OF five hundred miles without an attempt
at ConCealment. His beard during his
absence covered his face, and when he ap.
peared before his wife at o'clock Mon.
day morning, she scarcely knew him. In
the forenoon he secured the services OF a
barber, and, after taking dinner at the
the home oil a friend on Morgan street, he
took q cab for the Criminal Court.
II Is now certain that Balthszar Rau's
mission 10 Omaha was partly to SEQ Par.

First Vice President Of the Missouri
Pacific railway system, who became so
prominently identified with the big rail-
road strike at st. Louis, was at tho Union
station this morning, en- route from New
Yock to his home at ST. Louis. When
seen In his private car Mr.. Hoxie was at

prosecuted 10 the end. Every one Of
them belongs to the knights Of Labor.
"What Is the feeling In 81. Louis toward

Dnring the progress OF the examination,
Mr. Grinnsll, the States Attorney, said !:
"By the way, before / go further, the
counsel on the other side have given ua
one surprise by producing Parsons in
court. Are yon going to produce schnsu-

"No, sir" answered Captain Black, "the
trial is too far advanced for that"

The questioning then again proceeded,
The work OF selecting jury is ex-
trsmely tedious, and from the number Of
