The Anarchist Devils and Their PloIs
to Murder

CHICAGO, July lila the Anarchist
trial, Waller was again put on the
stand. Witness was at the mseting in
Bohemian Hall on the Sunday before
the riot. He was invited by August
Grieger, known by the name Of Little"
Grieger. Both August and Rheinholf
Grieger were present at the meeting.
Engle and Fischer, the defendants,
were present. Engle proposed a plan.
according to which, whenever il came
to conflicts, that bombs should be
thrown into the police stations, and
the rifiemen should post themselves in
line and shoot down whoever came out
of the police stations. 1t should pro-
coed in that way till they got into the
city, and the fight should commence in
earnest. There was some opposition in
the plan. One man thought there were
too few, and it would be better If they
placed themselves right in the middle
of the crowd in the city and commence
the fight there. There was no opposi-
ton to that as they could not tell who
might be their next neighbor in the
crowd. He might be a detective.
Engel's plan was finally accepted.
Captain Black moved to strike out the
entire evidence of this witness; over
ruled. Witness was then cross-ex-
amined.
The witness was severely cross
examined, but his testimony mistaken.
He said that no offers had been made
him TO induce him 10 testify. On the
direct, Walter was asked: Have you
been solicited By the defense within
the past ten days to go back on your
original statement and meet ct the
same place outside the city or at
Lincoln Park and agree on another
story" Defense OBJECTED and the OBJ
lection was sustained. Witness was
again cross-examined, after which the
court tnok q recess.
In the afternoon the prosecution
placed another informer, Barnhardt
Schrader, upon the stand. He testified
TO having attended a meeting over
which Walter pre- sided and CORRIDOR
ated the latter's description of the
doings of the meeting up TO a certain
point; th n he staggered the prosecution
by denying tina. any mention was made
of the use OF bombs or dynamite in the
operations against the police. Upon
this, thaprosecution dropped the wit
ness, who was taken by the defense,
whereupon he enlarged considerably
upon his former statement that neither
bombs nor dynamite had been men,
toned at the meeting. The prosecu-
ton again took the witness and Ingham
holding a long manuscript up to view,
and cycling 'Schraeder in a sharp man
ner. asking him abruptly: did you not
make to Police Captain Schook writ
ten statement" All he lawyers of
the defense interrupted instantly with
an objection TO the question, excitedly
to the judge. The point was
hotly discussed and the fact coming out
that the state had been duped, Ing
hams said: at is evident from the &C
ton of the witness and from the
action of the counsel that Schroeder
is their evidence, and not our witness.
The evidence was allowed to go. The
only other interesting feature in the af-
ternoon was a statement on the witness
stand of st. Quin. who said that Fielder,
after making the remark: I'VE are
drew a revolver and fired at
Bonfeld, Just as the@omb exploded.
