CHICAGO, Jan. 3O.-The following blood
thirsty circular, printed in the Polish Ian
guage, was translated this morning. SINH
lar ones have been distributed among the
members OF the socialist club throughout
the city, and decided attempt is being
made 10 carry it into effect, it is said. 1t
seems that at a masquerade ball, which
was To be held this evening by Bohemians,
they were to display banners and designs
which are said 10 reflect on the anarchists
and socialists. This leaked out and the cir
eular Immediately followed. 1t is under
stood that upon the assembling of socialists
at two meeting places resolutions will be
Immediately adopted to blow up the hall in
case the Bohemians refuse to retract. The
circular says:
Workmen. arisel Free pass to Turner
ball. Workmen, the Bohemian Turner's of
Taylor street will give masquerade ball for
the purpose of entertaing their friends. The
program states that there Will be "A grand dis
play of ''arcilotru," and in the program the
Turner's have insulted the worxmen OF the
entire continent, reviling them in contempt
Gus and viilitying terms. Now, then, work
men, allow them and their guests the privi-
lege of assembling, and then show then genu-
inc ''arcilotru-" We therefore request all
workmen in poor circumstances TO show up
in full force tonight at the hall and there
demand that they shall recall their insults.
Fine clothes and kid gloves are not necessary.
Rough hands aud dynamite are all the re-
Quirements. The Sixth ward men will assem-
tie on Eighteenth street, and those of the
Eighth ward on Dekoven street.
lSignedl JOINT SOCIETIES OF CHICAGO.
THE BOHEMIAN SOCIETY
sent committee to Chief EbersOld to ask
protection, and Capt. Simon O'DOnnell of
the Twelfth street police station was as
signed to look after the matter. The word
arcilOtru is said to mean thief" or rob
ber." A reporter for another evening paper
called on August Spies regarding the pro-
posed display. He said it was not eontem-
/ plated by the anarchists originally TO take
| possession OF the hall. They only desired
to protest openly against the action of the
| Turner's.
Now however, he said, ''since the Bohe-
mians have taken the cOwardly step of sum
moning the police, there is no suTmising what
will he the result, and if the police begin TO
use their clubs or overstep the limit OF their
/ authority. the anarchists will not, 10 say the
| least, submit tamely 10 il. Two can play at
that game"
The terrorists, he said, had no love for
the police. anyway. They looked upon
them as pack of thieves and rOgues,
and never lost an opportunity TO give them
/ rap. The Bohemians are determined
fighters, Mr.. Spies says, and will no doubt
be fully armed on the occasion. Neither
will the anarchists go empty handed. The
| Bohemian Turner's are said to be an offshOOt
from socialism. and until two years ago
were in accord with that organization.
There is a bitter feeling existing between
the two societies, and it was feared seri-
Gus affray would result tonight.
Yes. the Bohemisns have asked protection
from the anarchists, said Chief Ebersold this
afternoon. We shall have three officers de-
tailed there to prevent the threatened vio
lence. but if necessary the entire department
can be on the ground at a few moments no
tice. i don't think there is danger of severe
trouble. The superintendent added: The an
archists are not so foolish, / think. as tC
think they can defy the entire police force OF
the city. and the chief laughed at the idea
that there would be serious trouble.
NO HARM DONE.
Notwithstanding anarchist threats, Tur-
ner hall, on West Taylor street, was
crowded tonight with Bohemian masque-
raiders and their friends, men, women and
children. Around the walls were hung
tawdry caricatures of Socialists being
!. dubbed by the police or marching in prison
stripes. Beneath the canvasses the merry
makers drank their lager, smoked theil
pipes and danced without the slightest ap-
pearance of alarm. On the outside in the
immediate vicinity of the hall there was al
IL d. IN, when the ball was in full blast
nothing unusual to be seen, though
early in the evening the stree
had been crowded by people
drawn thither by the prOspec
of witnessing exciting scenes. In the adj
joining thOroughfares police were numer
Gus. but were mainly disguised in citizens
clothes. Two or three little knots of men
said TO be anarchists, persisted in hangin!
about the vicinity despite repeated effort
! of the police to get rid of them quietly
Finally the groups, numbering less thai
! twenty men in all. came together by al
! evidently preconcerted arrangement, and at
, tempted to assault an officer who went t
order them away. A dozen police charges
on the gang, the members OF which he'
like rats down the alleyways and darl
streets. The police thereafter busted them
selves by stopping and searching al
passersby bearing the slightest semblanc
to a supposed anarchist.
