ANARCHISTS PREPARING FOR a
WORLDWIDE OUTBREAK.


denunciatlon of the anarchists that the Pub
lie may have become accustomed, II not IN
sensible, to statements that would ctherwise
have been alarming. For this reason tlis
paper has confined its statements concerning
these meetings to a bare, unvarnisEed an
nouneement OF them until investiga ttoa
warranted more The result OF inquiries
goes to show that history is rapidly repeat t.
ing ITSELF so far as the so.caled social revo D
| luton is concerned, and that already, at
| least another date for its Inauguration h 3s
been fixed by the anarchists all over the
country.
THE MOVEMENT WORLD WIDE.
The movement is local, national aud il
| ternatioDal according to Information fully
! authenticated now in the hands of the ca
cago police. Not very long ago n committee
of six was appointed in tnis city, to ia6e
into consideration ways aud meals t'r
revising the revolutionary cause No one
at present knows now this c c-nmittee or'si-
mated. IL was less than three days as. tltt
the names of these SIX propaganl.s.s
reached the private drawer of Inspector
Bonfed, but he has them, and unless 'he
policy of the city government intervenes,
they will be placed under arrest within po'-
sibly tweLty-fuur hours.

They are known as ''the invisible co n
| mittee," that is, they are supposed b. he
unknown to the mass of the anarchists in
Chicago, notwithstanding they have sole
control and direction OF the movements of
the organization. They work with other
anarchists individually, and not as a body,
and hold their de tity sacredly secret.
This plan was adopted because of tue failure
| of the central or huization plan, which
brought Spies and Parsons and the others.
TO the gallows. This sort of invisible"
headwork was begun about year ago, and
progressed very slowly at first, but as soon
as the revolutionists fully realized that
there was directing fountainhead, they
rallied around the revolutionary standard,
and during the past few months the prepara-
tons for revolution have been going for
ward with great activity.
OTHER ORDERS IN THE PLOT.
Aside from tho majority of 30, the organi-
zation Gililia'ed with the Central La or
Union. The invisible committee has been
propagating tho revolutionary cause
through a number of anarchistic societies,
prominent among which are the newly
formed "Arbeiter Buad;n the A. r. Par
sons Assembly, No. l." a reorganization of
| the expelled Knights of Labor Assembly
No. $40, of which Parsons was the lead
ing member; the Soclalistic Publishing
Society, which owns and controls tho
Arbeiter Zeifung on the communstic plan.
The Workingmen's Defense Association,
which raised the money TO defend Hronek
and his fellow consplrators, is also active in
tho work.
PLAN OF THE CAMPAIGN.
The plan of campaign. as nearly as It has
been comprehe ded by the police, is, so far
as public associpti0ns and meetings are cou-
cerned, to teach anarchy, TO create in the
minds of socialists hatred Of the law aud
law officers, and TO ms Ire a spirit of re-
venge for the execution of Spies and his
comrades. Their teachings are carried out
by speeches, more or less incendiary. The
movement is growing bolder every day.
CIRCULAR OF THE ARBEITER BUND.
The Arbeiter Bund is the latest form OF
revolutionary agitation, and at its last pub
lie meeting, held on Thanksgiving day, q
circular, the substance OF which was given
, in these dispatches last night, was secretly
distributed among those present, who were
supposed to be true 10 the cause. The cir
cular purports TO have ecu printed In 1888,
at Pitlsburg, but that is a deception. The
original was issued by the congress of the
International Working Peoples Association
Oct. il, 1888 These editions, however
were exhausted long ago. A now batch has
been printed in close imitation OF the old
one and is being distributed in the interest:
Of anarchy.
ONLY TEN DAYS OLD.
The Arbeiter Bund has a public career OF
less than ten days, but its projectors have
been at work secretly for some time and
bavo matured plan Of propaga ing
anarchy under cover of the labor move
ment very much on the plan Of two years
ago. which eliminated in the terrible
slaughter at the Haymarket. Then it was
that the Reds espoused the eight hour move
meut not because they believed in 10, but
because IL was the sensation Of the day and
they were compelled TO fall In with it. II
was then arranged for a general strike In
May In the eight hour cause, and q
anarchists prepared their bombs ami g It
ready for inaugurating social revoutio., on
that day. The result is fresh in the minds
OF all. History is repeating itself in this
respect.
A COMING CONVENTION.
Tho American Federation of Trades will
hold convention in st. Louis this month,
at which it's delegates, representing the
various trades assemblies throughout the
country, will endeavor to fix upon some
day in 1890 for another eight hour strike.
The anarchists appear to have already fore
seen their opportunity, and besides doiug
all they can TO ferment the strike into
national disorder, they will no doubt be
ready with their bombs aud other machines
OF destruction, in order TO make another
This is the generally accepted plan, aud IL
is for the Accomplishment of this end that
the work Of public agitation has beeI ro
sumed.
THEORY OF THE POLICE.
The police, no wever, have quite another
idea. They have been informed rs stated
some time ago, that the anarchists will
make another destructive demonstration on
the Tooth anniversary Of tho fall of the
bastile, which occurs In July next, and the
authorities are making preparation both
hero aud in New York 10 prevent IT, How
ever this may be-, there is strong ground
for expecting an outbreak on the occasion
Of the first labor strike that assumes any
thing like national proportions.
George Schilling was asked last evening
II no expect another outbreak as tho re-
suit Of the existing Evolutionary force.
MAY BE A DECADE OFF.
He said ~ expect something of tie kind
about tho end OF the present century, say
In ten years. Society is just now dormant !,
like river frozen in winter time, but some
night there will be a mighty crack in the
ice, and under the warming influence Of
the revolutionary forces there will be a
mighty upheaving There will be no doubt
squal or two before that time, but the
great event will not come, In my Judgment,
much sooner. There will be lots Of men
