Number of Persons Supposed to Be
Anarchists Under Arrest.
BARCELONA, Nov. l4.-There were ar
rested here to-day a number of anarch-
lists, including female enthusiast. Many
houses known to be occupied by persons
of anarchistic tendencies were searched.
Powder. fuses and literature OF a revolu
tiOnary character were found in num-
Der of them. A house occupied by the
notorious anarchist, Fontanels, was
searched, and bombs and a quantity of
cartridges, powder and dynamite discov-
cred. The evidence against the Italian,
Soldany, who was arrested after the eX-
plosion at the Licee Theater, and charged
with being responsible for that crime, is
| accumulatlng, although the Italian col
ony here and the Italian Minister at
Madrid have petitiOned the authorities in
his favor. Anarchist Rinaldi, who was
arrested at Perpignan, France, is consid
cred by the authorities here to have been
implicated in the crime. The police are
eXpelling from Barcelona all persons sus-
pected of being anarchists.
ANARCHISM DISCUSSED IN THE COMMONS,
LONDON, Nov. 14.-An exciting discus
sion Of anarchists rights to assemble to
commemorate the death at Chicago of the
anarchists, was had in the Commons this
afternoon. Gladstone was denounced for
permitting such demonstrations. Darling
moved to adjourn in order to call atten
ton to the use of Trafalgar Square at a
meeting place by anarchists, who openly
gloritied the outrages at Chicago and
Barcelona. Darling, who is well-known
author. writer and lawyer, said it was the
duty OF Asquith, Home Secretary, to have
satisfied himself of the objects Of the
meeting at Trafalgar Square before per-
mitting it to take place. Balfour, Con-
servative leader, supported Darllng's mo-
tion and strongly censured the Govern
ment. The meeting, according to Bal
four, was a breach of the law. John
Burns, Labor leader and a member for
one of the Battersea divisions, defended
the Trafalgar Square meeting as being a
protest against the action of the Chicago
police. Home Secretary Asquith, reply
ing, attacked Darling, and said the meet
ing at Trafalgar Square was Insignificant
and not illegal. He regarded it as a
safety valve of feelings which were only
dangerous when suppressed or watched.
A motion to adjourn was adopted.

NEW TARIFF BILL.
The Democratic Measure VIII Soon
be Made Public.

The Democratic Measure VIII Soon
be Made Public.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 14.-The new DEM
ocratic tariff bill will probably be pub
lished much earlier than has been antici-
pated. Resolute tariff reformers have
been warned by the attitude of the mod
crate tariff men in the party since the
election that the chances of party success
and discipline depend on the boldness
and promptitude in defining their policy.
Therefore all haste, consistent with de-
liberation, is to be made in completing
the bill and giving it to the public. To
this end, in order to avoid any chance of
wrangling or delay, it has been decided
not to call any caucus to consider the bill
in advance of its presentation to Con-
gress. That this course will meet with
criticism is evinced by the fact that Eland
of Missouri, Culbertson of Texas and
others have openly announced their in.
tention of opposing free wool.
The work of drafting the bill is being
done in subcommittee, which also, as
fast as they complete their work, draft
their part of the report to accompany it.
In this way the whole work is moving
forward very rapidly, and large part of
the report is now ready for submission to
the House. full committee must pass
on these divisions, but 1t Is not probable
that any considerable changes will be
made. 1t is expected the final announce
ment will be made in ten days or two
weeks. 1t is generally accepted that wool,
coal, iron ore lumber and salt will be
added to the free list, but the committee
jealousy guard the list of manufactured
articles to 90 on that list. Sugar is still
under consideration, though so far the
tendency is to repeal the bounty and put
the article on the free list. Iron and coal
men continue to protest against the plac-
ing of those articles on the free list.

FRESNO, Nov. William Farrow, the
late nominee for Tax Collector of this
county on the Populist ticket, was killed a
mile and a half west of this city this
morning about o'clock. Farrow had
come to town and got warrant for the
arrest of the parties who stole some of his
fishing apparatus. and accompanied
officer William Henry to make the ar
rest. When the parties were overtaken
they commenced shooting, killing Far
row.
When Deputy Constable Henry COM
menced reading the warrant to the men
in the wagon, charged with stealing Far
rows fishing apparatus, the old man be-
gan firing at the officer, which was re-
turned by the officer. Farrow was Grip
pied man, and when the horses became
frighted at the shooting he was thrown
from the buggy and left at the mercy
OF his foes, who shot him literally to
pieces.
Officer Henry returned to this city after
eXhausting his ammunition and secured
other officers, who all returned to the
scene of the shooting. They found the
old man dangerously wounded and took
him to Jail. He wouldn't give his name
and no one seems to know who he is.
Farrow leaves large family in poor
circumstances. He was Well-liked by his
acquaintances.
Later reports seem to indicate that two
of the resisting party escaped, but are be-
ing pursued. 1t is not known whether
they are hurt or not.
The prisoner is probably wounded
fatally in the abdomen. He is about 10
years old and is fisherman.
The wounded robber is named Charles
Robinson. His wounds are not fatal.
The shooting of Farrow was particu-
larly atrocious. While the Constable
was reading The warrant Robinson COM
menced firing. Farrow's horse became
frightened and Farrow was thrown out of
the buggy into the road. He was para
lytic, and, as his crutches were out of
reach. he lay in the road helplessly, while
Robinson coolly shot him to DEATH Con-
stable Henry returned Robinson's fire
and wounded him twice. The man who
accompanied the wounded robber es-
capped and has not yet been captured.
