TWELVE ON TRIAL.
Austria Anarchists Who Are Candf-
dates for Hades.

| Vienna, Feb. ia sensational trial
began in secret here today. It is that

September for distributing incendiary

together with coats with hooks on the
inside to hang bombs on, and a regu-
| lar armory of weapons and ammuni-
! ton
The literature seized showed that the
men were in communication with the
anarchists in America and the follow
ers of Herr Most.
Testimony of a most sensational
charcter is expected to be brought out
at the trial and though it is secret, the
Associated Press has made arrange
ments by which it is expected it will
be enabled to give a substantial report
of the proceedings.
/ Haspel was the first examined and
he confessed to being guilty of the
tcharge of employing a secret press
and admitted that he was an anar-
chist. Haspel said: I'VE desire to at
! tain our ends by the employment of
! force" The prisoner procured a secret
press, because he wanted to furnish
the workmen with suitable newspapers.
| At this stage of the proceedings, the
| jury inspected the couch in which the
secret printing press was concealed.
When the examination was resumed,
Haspel denied all knowledge of the
manufacture of explosives. Haspel en-
phatically denied that he had lectured
upon the manufacture Of bombs Has
pei explained that the propaganda of
physical force was to be employed
mot against individuals, but against
| the whole social fabric. The social
lists demands for such political priv
ileges as franchise, only delayed it's
! contamination.
The prosecutor asked if the ideal
state would be republican or anar-
chiStic, to which Haspel replied it was
all the same to him.
Twill there be laws?" asked the pros
ecutor.
Haspel replied: "The people will
make them, and there will not be anv

/ Haspel admitted that he had pre-
pared an anarchist manifesto and had
made the leaden and tin bombs seized
by the police. He denied however, that
he intended to use them.
Counsel for the defense pointed out
that. contrary to the published re-
ports, no powerful explosives were
found At the rrisa-ar'~ I'D -iv~~-
the machines found were only small
and rudely maze c0ntflvdnces.
Martin Stikul, a carpenter, another
of the accused, admitted attending the
anarchist meetings. but denied that
he was aware of the contents of the
anarchist manifesto.
The case adjourned until tomorrow.

He is at once Confirmed.


Washington, Feb. 19.-The chief
event in the Senate occurred in exec
utiye session and was the promptitude
with which the Senate confirmed the
supreme court nomination of Senator
White, of Louisiana, without even re-
ferring it to a committee.
1t was fully in accordance with the
traditional courtesy of the Senate that
a member of that body, when nominal
ed for high public trust, should be
confirmed without reference to a com
mittee; but still, when contrasted
with the stubborn and prolonged con-
tests that have successfully taken
place over the Hornblower and Peck
nation of White to the supreme bench
came as refreshing surprise to the pub
lie
The haste of the senators to show
courtesy to their colleague would not
even permit Daniel to finish his speech
on the Hawaiian resolution.
When Caffery, the colleague of
White, appeared in the chamber from
the lunch room, he was appriSed of the
nomination of his colleague to be JUS
tice of the supreme court, and Daniel,
after an interchange of glances with
his fellow senators, announced that he
would conclude his speech at later
time. and Caffery moved that the Sen
ate proceed to the consideration of ex-
ecutive business.
The doors were at once closed, but
representatives of the press needed no
confidential message to apprise them
that the proceedings were in marked
contrast to the scenes and incidents
that attended the last two supreme
court nominations.
The opening session of the Senate
was unusually devoid of interest.
Hale presented resolution to inves-
ltigate certain printing contracts, but
the matter did not even create a dis
cussion, although the resolution was
adopted.
Daniel opened his argument in sup
port of the administration in the Ha-
waiian matter, and will conclude to-
morrow.
The president sent for Senator White
and his colleague, Caffery, last night
and upon their arrival at the w nlte
House, made known the purpose of his
invitation for conference.
White, while expressing a deep sense
of the obligation, was much surprised
land doubtful as to whether he should
accept. He asked the president for
time to consider and although he and
his colleague remained with the presi-
ldent until late at night, he left with
out giving his assent. This morning,
when he and Caffery again called at
the executive mansion. he was still
unable to say positively that he pre-
ferred that Office to that of senator
and it was not until the last minute
before his departure that he gave as

Edward Douglas White will take his
seat on the supreme bench as the
youngest of the justices, and with the
exception Of Field and Harlan, will

life than any other justice and he will

Brooklyn, Feb. ia great crowd
assembled at he courthouse this morn
ing in anticipation of the sentence of
John Y. McKane, the Gravesend poll
teal boss, convicted of election frauds.
An extra detail of police was necessary
to keep order.
McKane came into court apparently
the least concerned man in the room.
He laughed and chatted with the law
yers.
When court opened, McKane's at
torney moved for a new trial and the
arrest Of judgment, which were denied.
He then asked that the prisoners good
character be taken into consideration,
to which the court said he could see
no circumstances warranting the eX-
ercise of such discretion.
The lawyer then asked for a stay of
execution for twenty days.
The court suggested that that could
be considered as well after the SEN
tence
McKane was then called up for SEN
tence. Asked what he had to say, he
declared he was not guilty Of doing or
counseling anybody else to do any
thing wrong.
The judge then sentenced him to six
years Imprisonment in Sing Sing
prison.
Steps were at once taken TO procure
bail pending the application of the
stay of judgment to the Supreme
Court If not obtained before, McKane
will be taken to Sing Sing tomorrow.
Owing to the mildness of Justice
Bartlett's charge, the prosecution does
not expect a certificate of reasonable
doubt will be signed.
The defense will go ahead with the
matter and see what can be done for
McKane.
Deputy Attorney General Shepard
said he did rot think stay would be
granted.
Counsel for the prosecution have
consented to a stay until Monday to
give counsel for the defense an oppor-
Etunity to file an appeal from the judg-
Iment of the court.
If they cannot secure a further stay,
the sheriff will remove the prisoner to

Chicago, Feb. 1S.-Henry S. Holden,
a wealthy manufacturer of gas fixtures.
and who was under 81, 0OO bonds on the
charge Of adultery, was killed this fore
noon in the La Sale street tunnel. A

den was riding, lost its grip on the
