and Fire Bugs Arrested.
Chicago, Aug. 1G--Carl Herlitz and
his wife were held over to the grand
jury under bonds Of $4,000 and $4,000,
respectively. by Justice Caldwell, OF the
Englewood police conrt, on charges OF
arson. Herlitz pleaded guilty to the
charge. but his wife denied her guilt.
The couple have been living at Wash
ington Heights, and it was declared ny
Fire Inspet tor Conway in court that
they are at the head of gang of an
archists who have been guilty Of COM
Knitting auarchistic offenses not only
for sentiment, but revenge to be de-
rived therefrom. Giving his testimony
against Herlitz and wife, Inspector
Conway told remarkable story. He
stated that he had indisputable evil
dence to show that an organized gang
of students of Herr Most's theories and
methods had been operating in Chicago
and vicinity. They had BEEN carrying
out the theories by burning down or
blowing up houses in order to secure
insurance.
After the proceedings in court Her
litz made Il full confession. He said he
came here from New Oorleans five
years ago, and met man named
Scharf, who instructed him in an
archistic doctrines. Later Scharf sug-
gested that the most rational way to
secure reprisals for capitalistic robbery
was to get after the insurance COM
panies. Bombs and other anarchistic
paraphenalia were adapted to the new
use and operations were commenced.
Scharf did the preliminary work, but
left the actual firing to Herlitz, and
was to receive S per cent of the money
recovered from the insurance company.
fIerlitz said Scharf had many other
pupils, and derived good revenue on
the 5 per cent. 1t is claimed that the
compensation Of Herlitz for each fire
for which he was responsible is $500.
