A ROAST FROM WINDES
No Precedent Found for Interfering
With Public Meetings,
And the Injunction Asked by Alleged
Anarchists Denied.
The Police Severely Condemned Fol
Their Frantic Actions,
Attempting to Quell Outbreaks Where
None at All Exist.

CHICAGO, Dec. 31.-Several days ago the
Arbeiter Bund, an anarchistic society,
appealed TO the courts for an injunction
TO prevent the police from interfering
with their public meetings. The matter
was referred TO Master in Oh ncery
Windes, who made a report today. He
finds no precedent for interfering by in
junction with official conduct, unless
property rights are involved. He does
not deem it within the province Of
master to recommend injunctions, save
where it is clearly established by a pre-
cedent that they should issue, and con-
tents himself with suggesting that one
issue. AS to the facts, he finds the COM
plainants have a constitutional right TO
meet: there Is no testimony beyond the
mere belief of Chief of Police Hubbard
and Inspector Bonfieid that the com.
plainants desire to overthrow the laws of
the state and nation. The statement
OF these defendants that some of the
members of the Arbeiter Bupd belong
to aparchistjc societies, in which the
overthrow of state and national laws was
advocated, is not sufficient to prove the
Arbeiter Bund to be an illegal and revo
lutionary organization, he says. Afida
Wits of the compliments and several
other citizens say that the pu poses of
the Bund are lawful aud proper. The N as
ter denies that to restrain the police from
permitting the Arbeiter Bund meetings
would be an interference with their dis
erection. On that subject he says in part:
sit is hostile and even dangerous to the
genius of our institutions, and IN conflict
with those upon which they are based, 90
assume that policeman without Judicial
res possibility shall exercise ju-
dicial power to grant or withhold
meet in public assemblies. If the mere
belief of police officer that prof
public meetings are for an unlawful pur-
pose shall operate to the prohibition of
such meetings, such belief, created per-
haps by error, malice, bigotry or politi-
cal craftsmanship, may be resorted to for
the effeetual extlnguishment of fnnda-
mental constitutional right. When citi
Gems have assem- bled, if they advocate or
proceed to the commission of unlaw fuI
acts or the overthrow of the government
or destruction of property, then the con
SENATORS of the peace may exercise their
discretion IN disposing of them. If in
tRis case the police have substantial
grounds for their belief, they should not
be engaged in q debate before master
in chancery, defending an assumed ju
dIcial power, but as conser vators of the
peace, should arrest the com plants and
appear IS the T, aoensers in criminal pro-
ceeding-"

On the 22nd, the small British schooner
Aurora, Capt. Wilson, flying the Domini-
can flag and loaded with provisions, prob
ably for Haytian ports, from Monte

prize crew. The next morning the gun
boats left, and with them went the
Aurora. They were afterward seen lying
off Cape Haytien in the track of vessels
from New York to that port. The gun
boat Dessalines was reported wreck ed off
Port De PAX.
Minister Preston has received the "of.
fetal account" of the bombardment of
Cape Haytien. The Dessalines was fired
upon by the forts and siienced them.
The commander reported to his govern

not come dangerously close TO Onited

him out of his wits. II was he, the com

Dessalines except the very few necessary
to silence the fort.

Found Near Philadelphia

The Fearfully Mutilated Remains of Man
Found Near Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 26.-a party of
boys, while playing in East Fairmouut
park today, in the vicinity of the new
city reservoir, found two bundles in
section of new thirty-siz inch water main
stored there, which contained the multi
lated remains of a human body. Evi.
IDENTIFY most horrible murder had been
committed. The legs had been cut off
close to the trunk, the left one having
been cut with sharp knife and the bone
sawed through. TIE other was likewise
cut, aud the bone partly sawed. On the
trunk were three shirts, the cutter one be
ing made of dark flannel A leather strap
was around the waist. The arms were
not severed from the body but were tied
10 front at the wrists with q stout cord.
The head was crushed in horrible man
ner at the back and there were three ter
r1ble knife wounds on the side of the face.
The left jaw was also broken. The body
Is evidently that Of German, probably
about 81 years Of age. Near the place
where the bundles were placed was found
portion of newspaper. dated Dec. 5,
the appearance of which indicated it had
been nsed for the purpose of wiping up
blood. On the margin of the paper was
written in English, the writing being
evidently that of a German, the words:
"Kohler Helad, Hobokep hotel" and
right under this, 'Mrs.," repeated several
times. A portion OF another newspaper,
stained with blood, was also found. There
are wagon tracks ali around the spot, but
the police are of opinion that they
we're made by wagons hauling material
useo on the reservoir, some, however. ap-
pear to nave been made by wheelbar-
row, and those investig ating
the case are hopeful that this
may prove a clue to aid them
in unraveliug the mystery which now sur
rounds the crime. Late last night a
gardner, living on the border of the park,
near where the remains were found, was
awakened by the furious barking of his
dogs. He seized his revolver and ran
out doors. He saw an object moving
from the direction of the park and hailed
it. Receiving no reply he went to the
Reservoir hotel aud told the proprietor,
John Ernst, who also went ont into
the darkness and saw man walking
from the direction of the reservoir.
He called to the man to halt, but his com
mand received no attention, and the
mysterious visitor to the park dis
appeared in the darkness. The spot
where the ghastly remains were found is
very lonely one, aRd at this time of the
year is seldom visited by anyone, and the
police therefore think the parties seen
by Ernst and Gardner, are connected
with the crime, which led to the placing
of the body in this neglected portion of

A Mysterious Crew.

WASHINGTON, Dac. 31.-The secretary of
state today received a large mail from
the United States minister to Hayti,
dated December 18Th, containing infor-
nation as 70 the condition of affairs in
that island, but making no mention of
the arrival of the American vessels Ga

dispatches of a mysterious crew that ar
rived at Port Au Prince on the steam
ship AKRON. There seemed to be evil

public out of port under convey of nigh t,
but it was frustrated by the vigorous
action of the authorities.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 31.-Sscretary Whit
ney today received dispatches from Ad-
miral Luce confirming the associatedpress
report of the surrender of the Haytien
Republic at the command of the United
States, by General Legitime, the newly
elected president of Hayti. The dis
patches were immediately sent to Score
tary Bayard. Secretary Bayard said this
evening it was not true, as stated by some
of those on board the steamer Pins
Mauritz, that the Haytien Republic had
been given up on condition that the case
should be arbItrated by representatives.
of the two governments.
Mail advices have also been received
from Samoa in regard to the situation
there, but az the department closed early
to-day, On account of the New Years fes-
tivities TO morrow, the letters will not be
read until Wednesday. In view of the
fact that the advices came by mail and
that no telegram from SanFrsncisco Ill

lieyed they do not contain any informa-
ton not already unofficially known.

RUSSELL HARRISON'S ERRAND.
The Young Nan Sent to New York to Select
Cabinet Timber for His Father.

New YORK, Dec. 27.-Russeli Harrison,
son of the president-elect, will start for
home in day or two. Within the last
seven or eight days he has called on or
communicated with every prominent
leader OF the republican party in this
vicinity. He has dined with Levi P. Nor
ton, conferred with Thomas 9. Plat, and
has had several talks with Warner Miller,
s. Van Rensseler Uruger and other local
lights. He was also dined by the Phila-
deEphians, who furnished much of the
sinews OF war In the late campaign
Hamilton Disston, John Wannamaker,
George w. Childs and Charles
Emery Smith. Russell Harrison will
practically decide New York's member of
his fathers cabinet. Before he came
here the president-eleot had been for
many weeks vainIy tiying to learn the
choice of the republican majority IL this
state. He asked the opinion of all the
leaders, bu5 found their opinions biased
by fractional Pre- judices. In view of this
version, the young mans actions have a
peculiar significance. From the very be-
ginning he was adopted by the Plat
Morton element. Then he made daily
visits to the Office of Steve Elbins, who is
a dyed-in-'he-wool Blaine man, and is
very favorably disposed toward Platt for
the second place in the cabinet.

LUCY WAS CHOKED OFF.
The Chicago Police Refuse to Give Her
Chance to be Arrested

Cndnce 10 De Arrested.
CHICAGO, Dec. 26.-Hand bills were
widely distributed today announcing that
Mrs. Lucy Parsons, wife of the executed
anarchist, would lecture in Waverly ball
tonight.
One OF the bills was handed to Chief of
Police Hubbard, who sent Lieut.. Laugh
lin to Mr.. Laurie, proprietor of the hall,
with instructions to order him not to
open the place. Mr.. Laurie was not sat
isfed with the message and called imme-
diately upon the chief.
Il shall send an officer to you tonight"
said the chief to Laurie, who will de-
mand the key of the hall from you. de
will then station policeman at the door
who will forbid admission TO the hall.
You are perfectly helpless in the matter
and any responsibility there is will be
upon The police. The wording of the
subject of the lecture was trife am.
biguoGs, in that it might in
olude any or all phases of an
archy aud socialism. There was no
doubt in the minds of the police that
Mrs. Parsons intended to say something
TO cause her arrest. Said Chief Hubbard:
"Mrs. Parsons can advertise herself all
she pleases but we will not help her TO do
it. We have private information that
she intended to make violent aDarchis
tic harrangue. Then we would
have been compelled to arrest
her, and you can be sure
that it would have been magniied in
every way by the argument of their in
junction suit tomorrow. The attempted
lecture was simply for effect. 1t is well
known that Mrs. Parsons cannot refrain
from talking OF anarchy if she gets g
chance, and We will not experiment with
her further. She simply can'5 speak in
Chicago"
The police programme was carried out
precisely, and there was no lecture nor
me 9tlHg. For three hours the narrow
stairway leading to the hall was crowded
with anarchists SYM athizers, who, how
ever, took the situation rather good
naturally. Mrs. Parsons was among
them. rs this what you call free
oountry?" suddenly broke out the az
archist's widow, as she waved aloft q
big handkerchief which had been
concealed in her muff. "Why they would
not think of trying TO stop such meet
ing as this in London or Scotland; the
anarchists march through the streets of
London singing Marseillaise, and are not
1nterrup pied; yet they call this country
free" Anarchist George Sohilling shen
drew the attention of every body by an
nouncing that the chief of police had
said there was no law to stop q meeting
but that Re was going to do it, aud public
sentiment would back him. "After per
secution revolutIop," shouted wild
looking youth on the upper step. He
quickly snbsided at q shrill ssh" from
Mrs. Parsons, though the glow on her
swarthy face and the flash in her
dark eye certainly did not indicate
displeasure. The youth said he meant
to say evolution" and everybody laughed
derIsiveIy. The police were denounced
in strong terms and several enthusiasts
u rged Mrs. Parsons to deliver her address
but cooler heads decided that it would
be bad policy, and in small groups the
anarchists gradually left
the vicinity.

THE J0SEFA AFFAIR.
No Ground on Which to Base Quarrel With
the Spanish Officials.

No Ground on Which to Base Quarrel With
the Spanish Officials.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 28.-It is learned al
the de partment of state that the case of
the brig Josefa against the Spanish
government for indignities, ETC., alleged
to have been imposed by the customs
officers of Porto Rico, has been
Under investigation since July, 1887, and
since that time the state department has
been endeavoring to secure remittance of
the fine that mad zen placed on the vessel.
The Spanish laws against smuggling
contain provision that If vessel comes
into Spanish port With less cargo en-
board than her manifest shows, she will
be liable to fine of 5000 for every pack
ap missing. This ships manifest men
toned twenty packages of corn starch
that could not be found, and a fine of
four thousand dollars was accordingly
levied or her. 1t is the custom
to remit hne II q reasonable
excuse can be given, but in this case the
missing packages could not be accounted
for. OBe defense was an dvanced that the
goods had been put by mistake on the
bark Josephus, which lay next TO the
Josefa in New York, but the department
upon investigating the case learned
that the Josephus had no
corn starch on board at that
time, and did notlay next to the Josefa in
loading. In the correspondence one of
the officers of the Josefa admitted the
mistake may have been caused by care
less receiptipg for goods. In view of the
failure of the ship TO explain the absence
of the packages, the department could
see no ground on which to base a quar-
rel with the Spanish custom offi1e, and
the case has been dropped.

turned 10 the ship yard as l O'Clock this
afternoon. The trial course In the bay

tageous conditions prevailed the contract
ors concluded TO have a trial before dark.
The course of two miles was made in five
minutes and ffey-;our seconds, three
seco DIS faster than the time fixed by the
board, requisite 20 rate of twenty
knots. Another run was made in six
inmates aud twenty-on seconds, which
was twenty four seconds over time. This
morning another trial was made, but dur
ING the -uc on OF the air pump levers
broke and the last half knot was run
with only one engine. The time made
was six minutes and eighteen seconds,
and the trial was then abandoned and the
Yesuvius returned TO the city. Heavier
air pump levers will be provided aud
another trial will be made as soon as they
are fitted. The horse power developed
