The Anarchists to 10 Vigorously Prosecuted
by the Chicago Courts.
CHICAGO, Oct. l4.-There is considera-
BILE comment, and no little excitement,
over the action Of Judge Gary in ordering
the drawing Of a special grand jury, to as.
semble next week. When spoken to on
the matter, Prosecuting Attorney GrinnelI
said, that the grand jury would only con.
slider number et minor jail matters cal
culated to relieve that institution from lie
present overcrowded condition, but the
explanation was made in 90 suggestive q
manner as to warrant the belief that more
serious business is on foot. II was stated
In these dispatches o couple Of days
ago that there was good ground for
the belief that any further pro.
ceedings against the Anarchist element
would be postponed until It was fully
evidenced that the element was still not
only alive but kicking. This evidence
came sooner than was expected. Before
the printers ink was hardly dry an attack
with murlerous intent had been made
upon Waller, the iniormer, whose eyi-
dence was Of go much value during the
trial. Major Cole, one Of the Jurors, die.
covered that his footsteps were being
doRGed and that his family was Ia peril;
another Juror was in receipt Of O bushel
ol threatening messages; aud still an.
other discovered certain outward and
visible signs which made II policy for him
to take vacation into the wilds Of Min.
nesota.
These developments have convincsd
the States Attorneys office that the head
Of tho snake has hardly been scotched,
aud 1t 10 more than suspected that the sud
den summons for a special grand Jury has
something TO do with the case" II has
been discovered that the large hall back
Of the North Side saloon, where Waller
was attacked, Ia the rendezvous
Of one Of the International branches,
and that almost nightly meetings
attended by 100 to 300 men,
are held In the place. Assistant States
Attorney FunthmAn has since Monday
spent an average oil IA hours daily at
Captain SChaak'b station going through
the lists aud other papers captured during
the May raids, and 1t is given out that the
men arreeted for the Waller attack will
also bo indicted for completely In the

Active nOstillticS beginning between the
QuirlnAl aud Vatican.
RoNE, 0Gs, l4,-The coOlnsss between
the Vatican and Italian Government Ia
developing retRliatory measures on both
aldes, and bears symptoms OF speedy act.
I've hostilitiss between the Church and
State. The result OF the two recent meas.
ures against the Government Is that tho
latter replies to them by q stringent en-.
forcing Of the laws against monastlc insti.
tutions. These laws have hitherto been
administered with considerable laxlty.
Several Jesuit priests have been iorCibly
expelled from convent at Florence,
where they had taken quarters in contra.
yentlon Of the law providing
that when the inmates Of 8 con.
vent have fallen below ak in
number they shall take no recruits, but
shall arrange for the final evacuation and
secularlzAtion Of the convent. This law
will be applied to seven other converts
which are in the same condition and
which are already indicated. In one
twenty'oue young girls were recently re-
celyed these will be expelled.
The Church party is apparently embold-
ened by the result Of similar struggle In
Germany, and seem inclined to defy tho
Government aud take the consequences.
Their failure is almost q foregone conclus-
ion because they have no strong eccleHias-
teal party In Parliament as they had in
Germany. Further than this, the Liber-
als, who are sympathiEing more or less
with the churchmen, only desire to ef-
feet compromise on O sufficiently ami
cable footing to permit them to work with
the Government.

TIE 1EAKY DELEGATES

Hauled Over the Coals-KnIghts Who Act
AS Newspaper Correspondents.
RICHMOND, Oct. 14.-The matter Of del.
egates acting as newspaper correspond.
ents, or giving information to press repre-.
seutatives not in the convention, has been
a prominent feature almost every day dur.
ing the past ten days. When It dst be.
came known thSt delegates were exercls.
ing their own discretion in the matter Of
giving out news, Mr.. Powderly called
them severely to task in the Con.
vention. There was a very warm dit.
cusAion, Many thought there should be
press committee, as at Cleveland who
should have full power to give out for
publication such information as Il was
believed the public should have. Others
wanted Mr.. Powderly TO act; still others
thought every delegate should 10 hiS own
press censor aud do as his consCieuce
dictated.
A small percentage Of representatives In
the convention demanded that nothing
should be sent TO the world OF The pro.
ceedings. For three or four days these
views were put forward when.
ever the subject was broSChed,
which was almost hourly. Jealous
and spiteiul delegates carried tales 10 Mr..
Powderly, claiming this and that one was
tRiving the whole thing away" and this
and that delegate was absolutely sending
verbatim reports direct 10 the newspapers,
Mr.. PoEderly, who was then, as now, civ.
ing out official information, aS he 6ad
been requested 10 do. was In hot water.
Finally charges were preferred against
about a dozen delegates, some for ''leak.
ing" to correspondents, others for acting
Rs correspondents. and the matter was re-.
ferred to q committee. Detectives were
then appointed to shadow the SUSPECTED
delegates to soc with whom they com,
municated and whether they wrote for
the press. There were numerous charges
hled. This was q week ago.
Abont the eame time charges OF intoxl.
cation were preferred againNt four or five
delegates, one Of whom, from q Western
State, was about to be expelled and With.

RICHMOND, Va, Oct, 1.-THE Execu.
tive Board Of the knights Of Labor held .
meeting at s O'Clock this morning To con-
slder the question OF sending aid to the

body, Mass, and the iourneymen plumbers

bly, had already voted that money should

er they receive the full liberty
and rights to which they are legally en-.
titled, But Mr., Powderly said, 10 apeak-
ing OF the conference aud its object, the
question OF social equality is not one OF
the offsets Of the bureau. It's object Is to
stimulate the Colored people TO work for
