The suit of clothes in which Bergman
made his furious attack OH Frick was
bought here. So was his hat. He
says he bought his revolver in the
Bowery, in New York, but this is
doubted. Nothing whatever was found
upon him which gives a clue. He seems
to have deliberately taken every pre-
caution to conceal his identity before
going to Frick's Office and, had his plan
of committing suicide upon arrest been
successful, he would have remained a
mystery, because the bomb would have
blown his face away, leaving him a
corpse that no one could recognize.
Much to his own surprise and to that
of everybody else. Bergman was trans
ferred from the central station to the
Jail at O'Clock this evening. Detectives
Shore and ColSon called at the station
and quickly walked the prisoner away,
hoping thus to evade any public atten-
ton. A couple of sharp gamins at an
alley recognized Bergman, and at
once formed a procession. A posse
tried to drive them away and denied
that their prisoner was the famous
anarchist, but the boys still followed,
telling every one they met that the
prisoner was the man. BY the time
the gates were reached there must have
been 1000 people OH hand. There was
no demonstration of any sort. The peo-
pie seemed to be actuated by curiosity

When Bergman was turned over to
Warden McAleese he was searched and

his name as Alexander Bergmann."
"What Is your other name, Aleck?"
the warden asked.
"Oh, this name will do for the pres
ent.''
Very we'll, Bergman it is.''

attempt on Mr.. Frick's life in Pittsburg

advocate of anarchistic theories. He

PITTsBURG, Pa, July 24.-The GRIM

CLEVELAND, O., July 24.-The most
terrific storm of the season struck Cleve-

day been intensely hot, the tenn perature
reaching 95 degrees in the afternoon.
Between and clock there was brief
rain storm. 1t was followed a half hour
later by second storm. Clouds black
as ink came up in the west, and passed
halfway over the city before the storm
broke. Then the rain fell in torrents,
swept along by high wind. 1t was
impossible to see aero SIS the downtown
streets, except when the binding flashes
of lightning came. The bolts seemed
to be striking all around. Horse and
electric street cars were stopped, and
the passengers huddled together in
alarm. The rainfall must have been
nearly three inches, and the streets
were flooded with water. The lightning
played havoc with telephone and tele-
graph wires, but so far as can be learned
no damage to buildings resulted.

that which resulted in the death, this
afternoon, of Marcus M. Mason, cashier

they started out for drive, stopping at
the Cave of the Winds on Goat island.
Instead of going the usual way with a
guide, Mason took short course,
slipped from the fiat rocks out
into the water, going directly under the
falls. He was then thrown part way
back, when J. r. Barlow, of Newcastle,
Pa. jumped in after him, but before he
could reach him Mason was again car

lost to sight. His body is probably in

Bergmann overstepped the line, but his
crime differs in degree more than in kind
from deeds of lawlessness and violence
which not many strike leaders venture to
heartily discourage. and which some
even openly advocate and defend. MIR.
Carnegies position is singular. The
avowed champion of trades union now finds
himself in almost ruinous conflict with the

his praise of Unionism and the sweet reason

that this dOctorine is true in Glasgow, but
not in the United States, or that it ceases to
