New York Anarchists who hatched the
plot to kill II. Z. Frick have not
been discouraged by the bungling
JOB OF Bcrkman and have sent another
envoy Of death to PittsOurg to carry out the
threat so often repeated In Anarchistic cir
cles that fricE must die.
The second commissioned assassin is said
to be Herr Aaronstamm the friend and fellow
tramp Of Bcrkman.
Aaronstamm Is a wiry little mana Russian,
and is between tweuty.two and twcnty-three
years OF age. He is q crayon artist by profess
sion and Il loafer by occupation. He Is
another OF Emma Goldman's close friends and
alleged husbands
lie went to Pittsburg several days ago, and
Is said to have received his lnal instructions
at the Jersey City depot from the Goldman
woman herself
This second move In the AnRrch,stic plot Is
said to have been made known to the police
by an agcn, OF the Vienna police through
Vice. Consul Otto Ebcrhard, OF Austria.
The Austrian's name Is withheld, and all
! Information Is SAID to come through the Vice.
Consul.
According to the story, the Viennese called
on him recently, and after producing letters
from Chief palit2. OF the Austrian police, to
prove his Identity. unioldcd an Anarchistic
plot to Kill Mr.. Frick as ncfarious and well
planned as any scheme OF Nihiiisn.
The plans, according to the story, were laid
| in the old country, and Bcrkman was frst
selected us the agent to carry, them out.
| He was furni he'd with money but he could
| not be given brains, and on account OF an al.
most total absence OF the latter material, the
Anarchists believe he maic the failure.
| Then the calm, cool and cod-blocded Aaron
stamm was selected, and 1t is said he has
been In rittsburg three days looking over the
ground and forming his plans TO make assas-
siuation sure.
| Aaronstann Is not well known In New
YORK except at Groocn Mirhrrs saloon, and
the hangers-On ut that place have learned to
keep their mouths Shut when strangers ask
questions ...
While the Goldman n-Mollick camp was at
| 600 Fifth street, ,AaronStamm was frequent
visitor, and Is said to have shared Miss Gold
mans h, spitaiity, with numerous other All
arch,stic brethren.
When Bcrkman attempted to assassinate
| Mr. rrick, Aaronst ANN was mentioned as his
closest friend, ard It was found that the two
had tralnrcd together through New England.
They are also said to have roomed together
In New York and to have bought beer by the
kcg on the partnership plan. BY pooling
their money they could buy more Anarchistio
literature and then both could read from the
same pages.
They were equally lazy, and, with Emma
Goldman as their teacher, they have the same
ideas.
Aaronstamm, however, Is said to have more
brains and discretion. He Is OF nervous
Temperament. and contracts his eyes in
way that always made him appear Ill at
ease. !gis complexion is sallow and his face
clearly shavcn.
When he left this city, 1t is said, he was
dressed In a striped flannel lawn tennis shirt,
a short sack coat end brown straw hat. lle
Is said TO have carried with him $50, re-
yolvcr and n dynamite bomb.
At police Headquarters this morning moth
ing would be told about Aaronstamm.
Inspector steers is now away on his vaca-
ton and Sorgt. Bird IS In charge OF the De-
tcctlve Bureau.
To an EvgSISG WORLD reporters questions
Sers'. Bird said:
at tisa case about which I can say moth.
ing as know nothing upon the subject.
What other people or my supet9rs may know
| can't tell.
"Aaronstamm is not personally known TO
me, but can tell you one thing, and that Is
there are precious few people of that stamp
who are not known TO Us. From that you
can draw your own conclusions"
Isn't II rather extraordinary for an ennis
sary 10 be sent here from Vienna about such
a matter Instead OF using the cablc2"
"Ycs, 1t strikes me as being rather I'M
probable. There Is Always some business OF
tliS nature goiug on between different cities,
and the cattle or telc graph Is always used.
"Cablr and telegraph operators, you know,
are pledged to secrecy, and In fact It'S c. line
miSdcmcanor-to t!vulgc ANYTHING AT all.
