SOCIALISTS TAKE A HAND.
The Red Flag Praised at Meeting OF
Striking Cookers.

Striking Cookers.
ScoTTDALE, Pa, April 23.-Over $500
strikers marched here shortly after noon
and listened to addresses of their
leaders.
The meeting was held at the lower end
of the town and the civil authorities Of
fered no resistance. Red ribbons were
worn by many, but contrary to expecta-
ton the red flag was not to be seen.
Alexander Jonas, the noted Socialist,
was the first speaker. He said if the
newspapers were to be believed their
mission was to invoke riot and bloodshed.
Pointing to the Stars and Stripes, he said:
"Under that flag John Brown was hung;
Parsons and others in Chicago assassin
ated, and your brothers at Norwood
murdered / choose the red flag because
it represents the pure blood that Rows
In the veins of honest workingmen. 1t
represents purity and honor. Under the
Stars and Stripes black slavery was
abolished, and the red flag simply means
that it must be abolished
Delaber, he Socialist leader, next spoke
and admonished the men to stay out till
May 1, when the great eight-hour move
ment would be inaugurated. He said in
stead of the 500 Italians arriving in the
coke region to-day much money had ar
rived.
Many other labor leaders spoke. A
'black Leg" who was found in the crowd,
narrowly escaped with his life.

HE LOVED MISS GREELEY.
Tho Crazy Cooper Talks About His Stay at
Chappaqua.

Chappaqua.
BUFFALO, N. Y, April ga reporter
this morning interviewed Alfred Banks,
the Black Rock cooper, whose infatuation
for Miss Gabrielle Greeley, daughter of
the late Horace Greeley, has caused that
lady much concern.
Banks says he loved Miss Greeley, but
to-day she weds and his love dies. He
met Miss Greeley when she was running
the free stage to and from the Episcopal
Church at Chappaqua. and he used to
walk beside it, watching the woman that
he loved in his spiritual way, for he says
he does not love as men love; he does not
believe in earthly love. He said: ''There
was union between us, a holy, unalter-
able union, and I am in her heart. Not
her fleshly heart, but her spiritual. She
has my love now, but after to-day do
not know her; throw her out. She will
never be happy. love a better woman
than her; we are spiritual"
Banks is evidently religious crank.
He claims to have spoken with the Deity,
and that he has been ordered to preach a
new religion, and claims that he is en-
dowed with divine power, can heal the
sick and raise the dead. He is we'll edu-
Gated, an accomplished Bible student, and
works occasionally at his trade.

his wife's furious slashings he had re-

one hand almost severed from the wrist,
and a deep cut in the throat. The woman
afterwards cut her own throat with a
razor and will probably die. The husband
