PITTsBuRe, July 27.-No additional ar
rests have been made this morning in
connection with the Frick shooting, al
though detectives are still at work and
the Anarchist colony in Allegheny is be-
ing closely watched Knold and Bauer
are still confined in separate cells at the
Central Police station. Preliminary in
vestigations have been made against them,
charging them with having aided and
abetted the crime Bauer was arrested
yesterday.
1t has been ascertained that in a bar
ber shop in Allegheny, a few days ago,
Bauer had considerable to say regarding
the feasibility of blowing up the Home
stead mills with dynamite and told how
little of the compound it would take to
accomplish that purpose. 1t is believed
by the police that some such scheme was
contemplated by the Allegheny Anarch-
lists, but that it was forestalled by the ar
rival of Berkman from New York to
perform his bloody mission.
At the Central Police station the
officials state that they regard the
arrest of Bauer as the most important
since the shooting. He is a professional
/ agitator, drawing his support from the
Anarchist groups and deVotes his time to
the distribution of the revolutionary liter
ature received from Chicago. He lives
with a shoemaker at 73 Spring Garden
street, Allegheny, where he was captured.
On Sunday he was seen entering Knold's
house with parcel.
He has been partially identified as a
man who was with Berkman in the cor
ridOr of the Carnegie Companys building
on Saturday just before the shooting and
handed Berkman a small package just as
he entered the elevator.
This package is supposed to have been
either the revolver or the cartridges after
wards found in Berkman's pockets.
This development has so far been kept
secret by the police although it is ad-
mitted that the second man was seen in
company with Berkman on the street
Since the declaration of Chief Murphy
that Herr Most would probably be arrest
ed before to- night, no additional informa-
tion of the intentions Of the authorities
toward the head centre of the Anarchists
has been vouchsafed, and everybody in
authority has shut up like a clam on the
subject. Chief Murphy has decided that
it is not necessary to send a special officer
after Mollick, the Long Branch suspect,
and he will be brought back in custody OF
Superintendent O'Mara, who is now in
New York.
james Close, the young mill worker,
arrested in Homestead in the afternoon by
Constable Price on the charge of murder,
was brought to the city last night and
lodged in Jail. The arrest was effected
on one of the suppressed informations
sworn out last week by Secretary Love
joy. There are ten or more warrants
! based upon similar informations that are
J still to be served, but the names of the ac
cused men will not be made public.
Officials of the Carnegie Company claim
that between 800 and 900 men, many o.
them skilled men are now at work il
Homestead mills, and that the plates be
ing rolled are of the finest character
They have, they say, over 1000 applica
tions on file and new men will be sent VI
, from day to day until the mill is full,
l manned.
r Berkman is beginning to chafe unde
A the strict regimen and frugal fare of tn
county Jail, and he is more ugly an
morose in his disposition than ever.
! Leader Hugh O'Donnell left on the moo
: tram for New York, to complete the mis-
sion that was interrupted by the issue G
the warrant against him last week.
? Before returning he will spend a mont
+ at the seaside to regain his health.
S He will retain counsel while absent
: take proceedings against the Washingto
s "Post" for suggesting that he was ideT
a titled with Berkman.
. The report from Mr.. Fricks residenc
: this morning is very encouraging. Al
y though suffering some pain, he had reste
u comparatively easy during the night, an
/ the progress of the wounds toward healin
r is eminently satisfactory to the surgeon
e I'm attendance. The sick chamber has bee
e fitted up with elaborate cooling mechar
d ism, and can now be kept at a cool an
y even temperature. All possibility of tn
"a intense heat producing Inflammation
the wounds is thus avoided.
