Question of Their Admission Tn

London. July 28.-The international So
cialist trades congress met again IN St
Martins town hall to-day.
In view OF the disorder which character
ized yesterdays meeting there was a large
crowd Of outsiders present. who appar-
emily were anxious to see a repetition OF
tho trouble. As the delegates presented
themselves for admission a close scrutiny
was made OF their credentials, II being
feared that some OF the anarchists would
endeavor TO get on the floor and make
trouble. Some Of those who bore creden-
tials which were not in exactly the right
shape were refused permission 10 enteu
the hall.
Herr Singer, the weil-known socialist of
the German Reichstag. who speaks Eng
lish fiuently. acted as chairman at to-
days session. He referred TO yesterdays
disturbance and announced that order
would have to be maintained After the
usual prcliminaries the congress took IN
the question OF the admission OF anarch-
lists, against which a large majority vote
was cast yesterday. Speeches for and
against their recognition as delegates
were made by Jean Jaures q radical So
cialist member of tho French Chamber OF
Deputies, Tom Mann, who was formerly
a member of the House OF Commons, and
several other properly accredited dele
The speakers were very much excited.
and those I'm favor OF the admission Of the
anarchists hotly contended that II they
were not admitted the congress would not
% internationally representative In it's
scope and that its decisions IN this ease
would not carry the weight which they
would otherwise have.
The opponents Of the proposition de-
elared with equal spirit that the admission
or the anarchists would have the effect OF
leading the general public to believe that
the socialists favored the anarchist prop-
aganda, which, the speakers contended,
was not the case. Eventually another
vote was taken and II was decided by a
them.
The anarchist wouid-be delegates wera
outside the hall waiting for a decision.
and Whon II was announced TO them they
became highly indignant II was finally de-
clded TO force an entrance into the han,
|
than II was carried out A rush was made
Tor the doorlSeepers, who were speedily
upset and the crowd of anarchists made
their way 10 the gallery. Then arose a
perfect babel. Tho delegates shouted in
their native tongues. Russian, Polish,
| French, German, Italian, Spanish and
English, that the intruders should be put
| out.
Finally the voice of a speaker could be
| heard above the din, Tom Mann and
james kier Hardle addressed the chair
IN advocacy OF the admission OF one OF
| the anarchists. other speakers opposed
| the proposition and the excitement wax
| ed until II appeared that there was a
| decidedly favorable chance OF yesterdays
| disgraceful scene being repeated.
Herr Singer finally succeeded in obtain
| Ing little order and It was agreed that
properly accredited anarchists should be-
admitted, but should be allowed TO take
no part in the debates. Later another
| vote was taken, and It was decided to
uphold the Zurich resolution, which, In
| effect, provides that anarchists shall not
be admitted. There the question remains
| at present.
