AN IMPORTANT ARREST.
Five police officers this morning arrested in
Allegheny Henry Bauer, the head center of the
anarchists Of this region.
In search of Bauer's house in Allegheny
the police found a brseeh-loading gun, q bull
dog revolver, several packages OF cart
ridges OF twenty-five to forty-four cali

something like a half-fattened marble and

anarchistic literature, papers, pictures Of the
Chicago anarchists. A goed-sized load has
been taken to the central station.
Bauer has admitted that he il the man who
distributed the anarchistic literature among the
militia and strikers al Homestead. He also ad-
mits that he met and talked with Bergman at
knold's house last week. He has also been
identified as the man who was loafing about the
entrance to the Duquesns Club house on 9Th
! avenue last week.
So much has been evident by the attempt
upon the life Of Henry C. Frick and the subse-
quent developments that have come TO the sur
face. The people are naturally jubilsnt over
the arrest of Carl Knold and believe that they
are now on the way toward the fountain head
of the conspiracy that eliminated in the tragedy
of SATURDAY. last
elements Of Allegheny have been keeping under
| cover, and the authorities had hattered them
selves that their vigilance for the past two yeau
| bad been rewarded. and that their desire for
mischief had abated.
They have, however, been undeceived, for the
search Of knold's residence last evening proved
conclusively that the circle, or section or what
ever il may be called, had been continuously
engaged in active propaganda and intimately
associated with other opponents Of free govern
ment and liberty, living in institutions in differ
| ent parts Of the United States.
In the rooms were found vast quantities of
anarchistic literature and correspondence.
indicating that anarchy has abiding places
either in the persons or 'sects or individuals in
New York, Chicago, Denver and other points.
Large numbers Of ciphers and cipher communi-
cations which were brought to light indicated
the existence of general and secret mode Of
communication. One of these ciphers inclosed
in an envelope, bearing a New York date
appeared TO be based on the Hebrew alphabet.
This appeared TO dovetail with a second that
appeared to be simply a combination Of unin-
telligible scrawls, and this, by figures on its
back, wss apparently key TO third, in the
form Of an ingenious geometrical chart, with
numerous curves, each different from the
other.
A linen railroad map Of the United States had
upOI IL tnttt tuteuueQ 70 luulcdte
lines between New York and Chicago, and these
were marked at intervals with figures, which
related to cipher words on the back. So extern
sive was the supply of anarchistic literature
found in the place TO indicate that il must
have been used as headquarters for the distri-
button OF this dangerous stun through the
country. There were numerous copies of
Freedom, rabid anarchistic sheet emanating
from Chicago and edited by Mrs. Parsons, the
notorious dusky relic of the executed anarchist.
The paper WAS filled with matter bloodthirsty
and bombastic, some of the articles calling
upon anarchists to pull down the wage question
and wage slavery. One copy contained a letter
from a local anarchist telling Mrs. Parsons that
her paper as truly advocates the princi-
Piles of revolutionary communistic anarchy
as did the Alarm, edited by her husband,
and pledges for it the cordial support Of all the
comrades" hereabouts.
There was also bundle of another Chicago
anarchistic sheet, Gdzdttft, printed on deep red
PAPER, and OF Herr Mosts Prsheit. There were
Gus communications in German and written
from widely separated places. There was
enough to al q small satchel, while as q finale

The police were in consultation with the law

with conspiracy and with parties

likely to secure bail, for his employers, who had
no knowledge Of his anarchisac temperament,
have declined TO stand by him. and the COM
of Allegheny viii probably not reach fiftieth
