PROMPTLY SQUELCHED.
The Proposed May Day Outbreak in the
Eternal City.

Rome, April 29.-The prompt and de-
cisive action of the government to re-
press all disorders on May day squelched
much of the agitation in favor of un-
lawful demonstrations. The prospect
is that no determined effort will be made
to mold open air meetings or parades in
the larger Cities. The Anarchists will
take pains to abstain from observing the
day, as shey wish to emphasize the
difference between their programme ard
the Socialists. Premier Crispi has tele-
graphed the protects in the provinces to
take the severest measures to anticipate
all attempts at disorder or seditiOn. In
several provinces, the most conspicuous
Anarchists have been arrested, although
they had not threatened or prepared to
break til e peace, A socialistic manifesto
was distributed in Naples early this
morning. The distri butors were arrest
ed and the leaflets seized.
The Anarchists Reign of Terror.
Paris, April.29. All the jurors who
Yesterday found Anarchist Henry guilty
have received letters threatening their
lives. They, as we'll as the judges, pros
ecutors and court officers concerDd in.the
trial, are receiving special police pro-
lection, The guards at the houses of
hiphsofficials who earned the enmity of
the Anarchists, and at the public build
ings have been increased.
