Tho Now York Anarchist Arrested at n
Meeting in philadelphia.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. IA meeting of
unemployed peopl,, at which Emma Gold
man was to have been the star attraction,
was held at Buffalo hall, this city. last
night. 1t had been advertised as being
under the auspices of Several unemployed
workingmen,n and the hall was packed
with about 300 people, mostly Germans,
Russians and Poles. While the assemblage
was being addressed German rushed in
and shouted i'll his native tongue: Miss
Goldman has been arrested; arousel' The
effect OF this announcement was electrical.
Every man in the hall rushed for the door.
Here they were met by squad of detec-
tives and policemen, armed with revolvers
and clubs, and were driven back into the
hall, where they were Quieted by speech
by the chairman.
Miss Goldman was arrested on war
rant sworn out by Detective Sergeant
Jacobs, of New York, on the charge of in
citing riot in that city. Her arrest was
accomplished just as she was entering the
hall. Otto Lieble, Prussfan, who was
escorting her, attempted to pull her away
from the detectives, and was locked up on
the charge Of resisting an officer. Albert
Harrison, the man who sounded the alarm
in the hall, was also arrested charged
with melting riot.
Emma Goldman was conveyed in n
patrol wagon to the central station and
locked up. She expresses u Willingness to
return to New York without requisition,
and it is probable that she will be taken to
that city today. She did not appear to be
much disturbed by her arrest, although
she expects the New York authorities will
succeed in having her sentenced to a term
in prison. She declared that she is an an
archlst and an atheist, and she says she is
against all laws and forms of government.
She intends when liberated to continue
her crusade against the rich. She adyo-
Gates the employment of force when poor
people cannot get what they want by any

once q prominent candidate for his
party's nomination for governor, and ac-
cording to the political gossips, had mar
row escape from being United States
senator in place of Governor Hill.
1t was Mr.. Thacher who originated
the canalboat campaign of 1889, which
was ridiculed without mercy at the start
and yet turned out great success for
the Democrats. He owns The Evening
Union newspaper of Albany, and both
as publisher and politician has always
been warm friend and supporter of
MIR. Cleveland. When Mr.. Thatcher was
appointed commissioner of awards for
the Worlds fair, he took a good look at
the existing system, and, in the classic
language of Chicago, immediately pro-
ceeded to "kick the stuffing out of it,
Foreign exhibitors came and saw and
kicked, but Mr.. Thatcher had been smart
enough to get his plan approved by con-
gress. and kicking was in vain.
In all previous worlds fairs gold, a
silver and a bronze medal were given
for the best. second best and third best
articles respectively in each exhibit.
The immense Importance of getting the
gold medal is illustrated by the fact that
an American brewing company which
took the first prize for beer n few wears
ago declared it worth e., 600, 900 to them
in their business. These awards were
made by juries of three, fve or seven
men, but Mr.. Thatcher declared the sys-
tenn liable to gross perversion. Bribery
and trickery were resorted to. he said,
and gross injustice done because one
piano. for instance, might excel in touch,
another in tone, and so on. He therefore
decided that all the medals should be of
bronze, and the special merits of each
article should be fully set forth in the
accompanying diploma.
In the article of beer. for instance. the
diploma willset forth the chemical purity
and "tone" or whatever else makes the
special excellence. This, Mr.. Thacher
thinks, will be fair, instructive and give
the buyer chance and not bestow such
lavish wealth OH any one man or com
pany. Foreign exhibitors did not think
so, and there was much talk of refusals
to exhibit, but Mr.. Thatcher prevailed on
the DIRECTORS to agree to compromise
which provides for appeals to larger
Juries and finally to the whole depart
ment committee.

B. A. ENLOpS PLAN.

Representative B. A. ,Enloe, of Tennessee,
writes an article for the NORTH american Re
vieD to outline his plan for "pension re-
form" He would have Congress repeal the
Disability Act of June 80, 1890. If it is not
repealed he would have it modified so that
only those who are dependent should re-
ceive pensions. All pensioners able to earn
q living in any way, all who have incomes
from property, and ali who reside out of the
country should be cut off, and all large PEN
sions should be cut down.
Mr.. Enloe says there were AS, 315 drafted
men and 5s,943 substitutes Neither
gratitude nor contract entities these men to
pensions" He figures out that there are
altogether 800, 900 drafted men, substitutes
and deserters still living who should not be
allowed on the rolls He would abolish the
local Boards of Examining Surgeons, and
have all claimants examined by men sent
out from the Pension Bureau. The entire
machinery of the Pension Bureau should be
reconstructed No one should be allowed
to examine the files Of the Bureau but regu-
larly-designa,ed officials; thorough in
vestigation should be made of all allowed
claims, aud scrutiny oil the rulings under
which claims are allowed; thousands of
pensioners may be dropped from the rolls in
this way. The Commissioner should cause
printed lists OF all pensioners, arranged By
postoffices, to be posted in every postolfice
in the United States, and request all
persons hsying knowledge of improp-
erly-sranted pensions 10 communicate

GET TOGETHER.


We must fight for our rights. That is
settled.
And we must fight soon. It is almost
settled that Congress will be called together
in the first part of September. That is
really only few weeks of, and we have a
great deal to do to get as ready for the con-
test as our opponents are.
is deeply interested in this struggle. 1t
will have serious consequences for him and
for those he is interested in. Though he
may not now need or receive pension, he
cannot tell how soon the yicissitudes of life
may make this intensely necessary to him.
He also feels keen interest in his old
comrades, endeared to him by association in
the camp and battle, and their widows and
orphans, whose interests are fearfully men
aced by the organized soldier-haters. The
success Of the opponents of pensions will
mean incredible cruelty and hardship to
them.
Every veteran who is not now in touch
with his comrades should make haste to put
himself so. If not in the GAR he should
lose no time in joining, and he should make
his voice heard, and influence felt in behalf
of soldiers rights. The fight viii be for all
soldiers, and every veteran should do his
utmost to help his comrades win. Let him
report himself present for duty at once.
No one must underestimate the urgency
of this crisis The fight is imminent, and
it will be persistent and bitter. Our enc
mics will do their utmost to overthrow US.
We must fight solidly and resolutely to
maintain ourselves. No man can be indif
ferent or neutral Now is the time TO make
himself felt.

ing for them, as we hear to-day. It has
always been the same weaiisome stuff. OUay
the bad soldiers wanted Office, employment,
recognition, or pensions; the only good ones
were those who didn't want anything.
The reforms" that Mr.. O'Neil urges are:
Cut off every man who cannot prove that
his wounds or disease were received in
actual service in line of duty; cut off all
whose disability has terminated; restore
the biennial examinations, and have the
pensioners pay the cost of these; cut down
the combinations given for artificial limbs;
cut down the widows pensions, limiting
them to those who were married during the
war, and where the husband was getting
less than $12 month when he died cut the
widows pension down to that amount; cut
off the pensions of all men who are in the
Government service and doing the work of
an able bodied man.
These reforms" would undoubtedly save
the Government much money, just as any
man can "save money" by repudiating his
just debts All the same they would be
piece of cruel injustice.
