MRS. PARSONS SPEAKS
In Spite OF the Police and No Attempt to
Arrest Her Made.


CHICAGO, Dec. 30.-Anarchist Parsons dark
skinned widow to-day made good her boast
that she would speak in Chicago in spite of the
police. TWAS in Waverly hall, one square from
Mayor Roche's Office, and is the same place
which was closed against her a week ago.
Four hundred people were crowded into the
poky little auditorium, and scores of others
choked mp the entrance and stood upon the
stairs. The meeting was one called by the So
ciaiistlc labor party Ito transact bu siness and
for the promotion of socialistic doctrines"
Proceeding with the introduction OF a resolu-
ton condemning the police for their recent
''lawless" interference with public meetings.
The resolution was unanimously adopted.
Tommy Morgan a socialist, was the next
speaker. He said the employment of force by
wOrkingmen was futile. 1t appealed to the
lowest instincts of mankind, and was wrong
from a moral, intellectual and practical stand
point. Its impracticabiity had been demon
strated in this city by the Haymarket and its
results. The hanged anarchists proof
enough that force was impracticable. The
meeting was then opened TO anyone who
wanted TO talk ten minutes.
Mrs. Parsons rose. The crowd cheered when
it saw her familiar face. Il should like very
much, some Of these days, to answer the asser-
tions Mr.. Morgan has made about those who
are dead" said she, "but the ukase has gone
forth from Roche and Lord Bonfeld that
am never to make another speech in
Chicago. and that | to be forever
deprived OF that liberty under the constitution,
but ] can't sit here quietly and hear it said
that those who are dead and silent in their
tombs had anything TO do with the throwing
OF the Haymarket bombs, though in the war
against tyrants all things are justfable. Those
who say anything else are ours. They were
miserable ours who, on last Sunday night al
lowed themselves to be driven away from this
hall by the police"
Mrs. Parsons then read what purported to be
an extract from speech of Thomas Jefferson.
in which occurred these words; "God forbid
that any country should be for twenty years
without a rebellion"
did Parsons or Spies ever utter anything
more revolutionary than that?" said Mrs. Par
sons. at has been said that dead martyrs are
no good, but their memory is dear to us and
perpetual inspiration, because they died before
they would ask pardon for deeds they did not
do. When liberty shall be crowned with inn
mortality, the brightest names in her crown will
be those of Parsons, Spies, Fischer and
Engel, who died for her. Cheers.] l am for
peace on principle. If you see two rival armies
approaching each other and take a poll of the
men, you will find that nine-tenths of them are
for peace, but they are borne on by forces ire
sistible to q conflict. Before we can have
peace in a society like our own, rivers of blood
will have TO run" Applause.l
The chairman interrupted Mrs. Parsons and
said her ten minutes had expired. A number
of detectives were present, butmade no attempt

OVER $500 WORTH OF ASHES
Sent to the Treasury Department and Paid
For With New Bills.

Sent to the Treasury Department and Paid
For With New Bills.
ST. LOUIS, Dec. 30.-Several weeks ago a
prominent citizen of Montgomery City, Mont
gomery county, Missouri, presented a check
drawn through ]. w. Overstreet & Co., of this
city, for S793.75 at the Third national bank for
payment He took the odd 1915 in cash and
requested that the balance, 500, be sent by
express TO his home. This was done, and the
money received. On the night of its receipt
the money, still in the express envelope,
was wrapped in a paper with another sum
OF money, the amount of which was
not known, and placed in closet for safe
keeping until next day. That night the
house, with its entire contents, burned to the
ground. Next day the gentleman searched the
ruins and found the remains of the money,
chiefly ashes, which he brought to the bank In
this city. One corner of the package of bills
about one inch across at the top and taperlng
to a point at the bottom remained. The re-
mainder was fine ashes. The bank considered
the case hopeless and would not risk an offer
on the money. After considering the matter,
however, Mr. I. a. Stoddart. the cashier, adj
vised the gentleman TO make a full aIhdavlt
describing the circumstances OF the loss, the
amount of money burned, etc, together with
afidavits of his county's clerk and others sup
porting his own testimony. This was done and
the document forwarded to the bank. As the
gentleman did not know the amount OF money
destroyed, aside from the contents OF the eX-
press package. he claimed but $50 The re-
mains of the money, in cigar box. together
with the affidavits were sent to the treasurer at
Washington, with letter from the bank, Dec.
5. On Dee. 10, Mr.. Stoddard received from the
treasury department a package containing
$S29.75 as the proceeds OF the box OF ashes,
with detailed statement from the authorities
allowing the gentleman's claim of 500 and
adding 1915 cover by count" for the money
burned with the express package. This is con-
sldered by the bank officials TO be the most re-
marketable case of the kind on record, though
the manner in which the value OF the ashes
was escertained is an inscrutable mystery.

Cured at the gymnasium of the California
athletic club tonight, had been the sole topic
in sporting circles here for week, and it had
created more interest than any other similar
event ever held on the coast. This interest
had been aroused by number of circum-
stances. McAuliffe had clear record of victo-
ries and his recent battle with Mike Conley, in
which the Ithaca giant" was defeated in less
than five minutes, added greatly to the admira-
ton of his friends, and gave the sporting
public an increased confidence in his merit as a
scientific pugilist. 1t was generally conceded,
however, that McAulife would fight his hardest
battle tonight, for Jackson had won an excel
lent reputation since his arrival here six
months ago, and he had given the highest evil
dence of his ability in his match with George
Godfrey last August, IN which the Boston

in every way his superior. Another circum-
stance which intensified the interest in this
match was the understanding that the winner
would be open to fight any man in the world,

A Bold Robbery.

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 2s-0ne of the boldest rob-
berries ever committed in St. Louis occurred
this morning on Olive-st, near Sixth, the bust

helm, Lewis & Co. wholesale millinery, had
drawn 81 800 from the bank of Commerce. He
