sleeping. On the contrary, it is more thor
oughly organized than even at the time of
the Haymarket riot, and its membership is
larger than it ever has been. The demon
stratlon of last Sunday ,,at Waldheim was
not gathering of few sympathizers OF
the friends of the dead Anarchists. 1t was
an organized outpouring of Internationals,
who had thus arranged to come out and
concentrate at any point agreed upon.
Inspector Bonfield, who is known to
have kept detectives watching every move
ment OF the Anarchists for the past few
weeks, when asked if there were many
Anarchists at the celebration, replied :
I es, there were; most of them were An
archists.n
Then you think they are still organ
lzed, and have large membership
l have had men out looking up their
meetings, and we know where they are,
and have the names and addresses of the
| leaders and most radical Anarchists, so we
can reach them in case of trouble. They
meet IN smaller numbers than before, but
! there are more Of them, and they conduct
Il eir meetings differently. There is not so
mucn preparations at the meetings for
hghtug and drilling with arms and ex-
plosiyes. But. what is far more dangerous,
they are thoroughly organized Just within
the pale OF the law and all we can do is to
keep our eyes on them
The worst thing about it is that they
have several schools here for teaching an
archy, which they call Anarchy Sunday
schools In these they teach the children
to hate the law and officers of the law, and
teach them the worst principles of anarchy.
Why, the wife of trusted employe:of the
County Board Is en- organizer OF and
teacher in one of these schools, and there
orr No lace III L
lists in Chicagojto day ready and organized,
waiting for the appointed time.
Trouble must come sooner or later
They have set day for it at headquarters,
but in the meantime they will avail them
selves OF every opportunity to carry out
their object of destruction to all organized
law and order institutions. They sent out
circulars before election, asking legislative
candidates Tor an expression of their opin-
ion on the State conspiracy law enacted at
the last session of the Legislature. Many
candidates replied that they were in favor
OF modification of that law, and some of
these candidates were elected, too. So, you
see they are becoming wiser and conse-
quently more dangerous, because the most
radical OF them are afraid to experiment to-
gether with explosives so long as the law is
as it is"
" You say they have day set for an up
rising and mentioned headquarters Have
you any information of this phase of the
lnternationals
4es, much more than l can give you /;
but you may say that we have positive evil
dence of their organization, officers. plans,
committee, etc. The central point is in
London, with Paris as next, then Brussels,
New York, Philadelphia, Chicago and San
francisco. All the principal countries
have Vice Presidents, the United States
having two, Chicago one, and New York
the other. In strength of their numbers
they rank: France first, Germany second,
British isles third, etc., with the United
States and Mexico last In America the
central headquarters are in New York. So
far they have agreed on the one hundredth
anniversary of the fall of the Bastile as the
day for concerted uprising. l do not think
people can take it any too much in earnest
They may have to change it, but they will
certainly make the effort. 1t must come
that is inevitable"
