OF the instigstors of the Haymarket riot
that Chicago would not be troubled for u while
with the dull-brained and blood thirsty villains
VINO prey upon their victims unawares. Tho cit
liens of Chicago have lived in comparative
peace, but to read of another conspiracy adds
fresh horror AS the news of the arrests passed
from mouth to mouth on the streets it was re-
ceived with greatest surprise. Considerable
dynamite knives, and other destructive weapons
We're found in possession of the trio, but the
form of destruction had not been determined
That part of the plot, so fur us tho three men
whose blood they desired was concerned seems
to have been left to circumstances. The man
ner OF death might be q thrust from knife, q
bullet from pistol, or the explosion of dynam-
its bomb.
Anarchy was not killed when its chiefs were
executed 1t was not even scotched Shortly
after the first conspirators were convicted the
large groups of the International disbanded
Ihe1r members gave public notice that the an
archists We're disorganizod. They united in quite
different manner on o much more dangerous
plan. They organized in small groups. In most
instances three sworn friends and determined
anarchists constituted n group. No one outside
the trio was made acquainted with the plans of
the group and tho opportunities for detection
were reduced to minimum. Each anarchist
knew his fellow-lnelnbers md it became next to
impossible for detective to get into group.
The anarchists also proposed to operate on q
different plan. No wholesale murders like the
Haymarket massacre wore to be attempted.
They selected their victims and arranged to
kill them sipgly. The conscience that makes
men tendsr-hearted in desperate deeds saved
Judge Grinnells life, and kept Judge Gary and
Capt. Bonfield from assassination.
In the group arrested were John Hrone's of
| 1852 Farrell street; Frank Chapek 1893 Twentieth
street; and u man named Frank Chebowa, living
on lions place, short street between Eigh-
| teenth and Nineteenth streets, running from
Throop to Loonis John Hronek is one of the
| daredevil Lingg type, o reentlessly vicious IN
archist and notoriety seeker. He was No. of
| the group and the evil spirit of it. He has
| boosted that he was at the Haymarket riot and
| that he WAS one Of the anarchists who sought
| to destroy the police on the night OF Nay

cations Until recently he has been unemployed.

as q wool-worker has been prosecuted within
| the last week or two for the purpose, Us no has
| said OF averting suspicion and Of proving an
| alibi should he be suspected of the murders he
| had planned The two others wore drawn into
| his plans by Hronek's Vehement and persistent
| talk of vengennca
| Hronek said that the cause of anarchy de-
| manded the lives of Judge Grilnell who as
| Prosecuting Attorney convicted the eight All
| nrchists; JUDGE Gary, who tried and sen
| fenced them; and Inspector John Bontield, who
| worked up the cases against them. They agreed
| to kill these men in the order named. Grinnell
was to be assassinated first, Curry next, and
| the third sacrifice to their vengeance was
| to be Capt. Bontield The methods OF dis
| posing of their victims were freely canvassed

oped
