Resolutions.

Resolutions.
CHICAGO, Nov. 16.-There was touch
of pathOs added ID the contention be-
tween the police and the anarchists by
the death yesterday of Mary Grief, the
daughter of Thomas Grief, the proprie-
tor of the hall at No. 81 West Lake
street, where the anarchists have al
ways met. The girl was Grief's only
daughter. She was twenty-one years
old and had been suffering from con-
sumption. What the police call unfor.
tunate, and what the parents call bru-
tally. was the fact that the young
woman should have lain ill in the house
when the officers raided it.
Mr.. Grief'S friends give this version
of what took place in the hail Thursday
night: During the raid some of the
Tuder policemen ran into the girls
room. They found Mrs. Grief standing
at the door. She said: Officers. let me-
alone. My young daughter lies at the
point of death in that room. For Gods
sake stay out of there" They crowded
past der, went into the room, looked
through the wardrobeS and then came
out. The girl was greatly shocked by
the unusual disturbance in her room.
Yesterday afternoon. Grief'S friends
say, his daughter received the fatal
shock. They said that while a secret
meeting of an Italian society was being
held in one of his halls all officer in citi--
Zen'S dress insisted on securing adniS-
sion. The Italians refused to admit the
officer, and adjourned their meeting in
the midst of considerable excitement.
it was while they were talking loudly in
the hallway that the girl died.
The sudden death of Miss Grief is at
tributed solely to the brutality of the
police, by the friends of Mr.. Grief, and
intense excitement prevails among the
various unions which use his halls as
place of meeting. The following is the
text of the resolutions adopted yester-
day at the Waverly hall sOcialiStic mass
meeting:
