Anarchists Striving to IDjure Chicago for
Hanging Spies ct al.
CHICAGO, Nov. 13.--Seventeen alleged an
archists, arrested at last nights meeting,
we're arraigned in the justice court this
morning. Complaints made against them,
some for resisting officers, others for carry
ing concealed weapons and disorderly
conduct. Several police officers were exam
ined, and their evidence was practically the
same as the story Of last nights arrests.
In the afternoon the examination OF de-
PENDANTS began, aud only four OF them were
gotten through with before Adjournment.
The, line of defense is to prove that the
meeting last night had no connection with
any anarchist movement whatever, being
merely the regular business meeting OF the
socialist publication company.
This evening bill was filed in the cir
cuit court by Thomas Greif to restrain the
mayor or police from entering upon his prem
ises or interfering with any meetings held
in his hall. The case will come up to- NOR
row. Both Mayor Washburn and Chief
object of the meeting last night was not to
commit any direct acts of violence, but to
keep up the anarchistic agitation to con
vince foreigners that Chicago will not be q
safe place to come to in the Worlds fair
year. Mayor Washburn said these incen-
diary utterances must be stopped, Tor they
are likely to do Chicago incalculable in.

possibly keeping millions Of capital away,
besides seriously damaging the Worlds

their speeches recently which justify the
conclusions he has drawn. They all hate
Chicago, and cry for revenge on it because

til he comes up with the train in the yard.
Then he jumps into the caboose and helps
the boys eat their dinner. The dog has
kept this up for year or more. j. A.

theory. The story about Hamilton having

sentative Assembly,

A Conspiracy In Russia to Secure a Repre-
sentative Assembly,
LONDON. Nov. 13.-Some surprise was ex-
pressed in this city upon receipt of dis
patch to-day announcing that e1traordi-
nary activity is being displayed by the Rus
sian government in connection with inter-
nal disturbances in the empire. 1t was
thought at first that the governments ac-
tion WAS due to troubles arising from the
scarcity of food in many districts of Rus
sia, as for some days past dispatches have
been received depicting the terrible suffer-
ings of starving peasants, Many acts of
lawlessness have been committed by men
rendered desperate by the pangs of hunger
and the statement that marshals would be
held to strict accountability for any politi-
cal disturbances III their districts WAS taken
to mean that starving PEASANTS and small
farmers were assuming threatening atti-
tude.
A dispatch received this evening, how
ever, puts all speculations to flight. A
short time ago it came to the knowledge of
the police that conspiracy was under way.
While secretly pursuing Investigations in
st. Petersburg, the police found that the
conspirators in that city we're only part
of very numerous band, the headqua ters
of which was located i'll Moscow. They
learned, also. that the conspirators had
been very uctiye in securing adherentH to
their plan and that the conspiracy had
ramifcations which spread to all the prin-
cipal cities Of the empire. The object of
the conspiracy, unlike Il majority of the
plots discovered in Russin, was not to kill
the czar. but was an organization of the
movement having for it's end the creation
of representative assembly. an object
which has been the dream of many years.
Sixty members of the nobility and of the
upper and middle GLASSES charged with CON-
plicity have been arrested. Students of nll
are under strict surveillance.
The discovery of the plot and the arrest of
80 many prominent subjects has caused
declded sensation in Russia.
