swindlers.

A letter received from q New York
su bscriber to the NUGGET, says: II see
you have been carrying an "ad' for
Alien & Co. The postal officers say
they are swindlers. They are after
them and took over 800 letters from
them short time ago. Their game is
to require applicants TO pay $5 to $40 in
advance for examination of property up
on " hich a loan is wanted. then they
will write back that their agent don't
approve of the loan.v
The NUGGET got onto this some time
ago and took out the nad." Now We
have the best of reasons for believing
that Mivin Sworts, of Baker City is
playing this same game. We sent him
a bill for advertising few days ago,
and in reply received letter proposing
that il we would induce -
who had applied to them for a loan to
pay $40 for the application, we might
keep our bill out of it. 1t sounded so
much like an attempt 10 get us to help
rob a friend to get money honestly due
us, that we advised the applicant 10
have nothing more to do with'this man.
We have his letter, and will give il to
the postal authorities. Unfortunately
one side of our paper was printed with
his "adn in it this week before we got
onto his scheme. He ought to be ar
rested for using the mails for fraudulent
purposes The letter to the NUGGET
would help convict him.

ANARCHISTS RAIDED.
Police Break Up "a Meeting by Arrest
ing Two of the Orators.

Police Break Up a Meeting by Arrest-
ing Two of the Orators.
Met to discuss the wrongs of their kind,
circle of anarchists gathered in a hall on
Pine street above I'd in Philadelphia last
evening, but the meeting had to break up
in confusion, owing to the arrest of two Of
the principal orators by the police.
Several orators were announced to appear
among them being Max Schloman and Ad-
rian Lautman, but little did the anarchists
know that seated in their very midst, wear
ing DISCUSSES in which their best friends
would not know them, were Special Police
men Carey and Casper of the third police
district.
One orator, with a beard that would make
a Kansas populist turn green with envy,
began in Hebrew to tell of the wrongs that
anarchists are burning to rectify. I'VE are
starving now, and can't possibly suffer any
more at the hands of the capitalists and
bondholders," he cried. 1.-THE time to strike
has come. What are the threatening let
tiers that are sent to Cleveland and Gresh-
am? The ignorant call them the productions
of 'cranks,' but they are the warnings of
aroused anarchy about to strike against the
oppressor."
Overcome by his eloquence, the speaker
took drink Of water, when one of the cir
Gle ran to the chairman, and with an alarm
ed countenance, whispered something. In
about two minutes the whisper had swelled
into one word arrest" and these bold
anarchists scattered.
1t was discovered that while Schloman
and Lautman. who were the next speakers
to come on" had been walking down Pine
street near Sd, they were arrested by Con-
stable Dillon on warrant issued by Mag
istrate Kane, in which one Isaac Glasner
accused them of assault and battery. Schlo-
man and Lautman protested vigorously, but
W ere lodged in cells.
When questioned, the police admitted that
they had been warned regarding the in
tended anarchistic demonstration, and had
seized the opportunity to revive an old
charge, which effectually prevented the
orators from addressing the meeting.

committee ON distribution Report.
Mr.. Gardner had presented, through the
secretary, some propositions, which had
been received, and which were referred to
the committee on distribution, Of which Mr..
Gardner is chairman. The first one was
from ]. Hadley Doyle. the secretary OF The
conference of st. Vincent de Paul of Trinity
Catholic Church, Georgetown, in which ref
erence was made to the report adopted by
the committee at the last meeting, in which
the organization of st. Vincent de Paul was
named as one of the agencies through
which relief might be given to the poor
Secretary Doyle called attention to the fact
that the conference to which he belongs
has charge of the territory west of Rock
creek, and requested the donation of food
clothing, fuel or money for distribution in
that section of the city.
A suggestion was also read from the Ger
trail Union Mission, which referred to the
facilities at the mission for furnishing
meals, and that tickets could be supplied
by the committee for sale throughout the
city, which could be given in lieu of charity
to those applying for relief and which
would enable those holding the tickets to
get meals al the mission. The tickets would
cost 10 cents. Mr.. Gardner said that as
], 300 persons had been supplied with Inner
on New Year day by the mission he thought
