fact that company of l25 or lao I alians
has been drilling every afternoon during
the past few days in the eastern suburbs

NOTICE.
All American citizens are req, ested to
meet at one o'clock p. m. tomorrow, April
8, opposite the Montana hall, and march
in body to suppress the daily menacing
maneuvers of dagos in this city. We will
take no insult like this on our flag. All
citizens must come prepared to take ds-
cisive action.
By ORDER OF COMMIT EE.
This was printed in heavy black typo on
red paper. Who are responsible for the
circulars cannot be learned, neither has it
been learned where they were printed.
The most commonly accepted theory
is that they are the work of some
practical joker. The police think they
were the work Of somo hot-headed
men who really meant to carry out the in
tentions announced in the circular. This
theory is supported by the fact that after
a few had been scattered the distribution
of the dodgers was suddenly stopped. as il
the promoters of the movement had thought
better of it or been called off by some one
who had authority over them. The circu-
lars were not distributed openly bat
were handed from one man to another,
each claiming that he had received one or
two from somebody else. II any crowd as
sembles at the appointed place tomorrow
afternoon it will be dispersed by police.
Many citizens go out daily to see the Ital-
ians drill. Nobody feels any alarm, as the
the Italians bear no arms. Their evolv-
tions are confined to marching, wheeling
