tion-Passed SIeepIess Night.

Chicago, Sept. 10.-Captain Collier
an, chief of detectives, has sworn out
a warrant charging Emma Golden with
conspiracy to assassinate President
Mckinley. Goldman, who was arrest
ed today, is being held at the Central
police station.
The woman admits she is Emma
Goldman.
Manner Is Defiant.
Emma Goldmans arrest was accom-
plished shortly before noon. Her
manner is defiant. She disclaims all
knowledge of Czolgosz and his crime,
though admitting she met him here
July IL. Says she never advocated
violence and only knew Czo1gosz was
the man who tried to kill the Presi-
dent through the newspapers. She de-
clared anarchy did not teach men to
do the act which made Czolgosz de-
spised and hated the world over.
Emma Talks.
I I'm an anarchist student of So
GEOLOGY, but nothing in anything | ever
said to Czo!gosz knowingly would have
led him to do the act which startled
everybody Friday
! Not even in your lectures" put in
a reporter. He says your words set
his brain on fire
Am | accountable because some
crack-brained person put wrong con-
stuction on my words? Czolgosz,
am convinced, planned the deed UNI
aided and entirely alone. There is no
anarchist ring which would help him.
There may be anarchists who would
murder, but there are also men in ey-
i cry walk of life who sometimes feel
the impulse to kill. Czolgosz may be
inspired by men, but ii he was he took
the wrong way Of showing it.
Police Not Satisfied.
The police are not entirely satisfied
with Goldman story.
A detective discovered her at the
home of one Norris, 303 Sheffield ave-
nue.. She at first denied her identity;
trying to pass herself Off as a Swedish
) woman. Finally she acknowledged
she was Emma Goldman and accom-
panied the officers to the office of
Chief O'Neill. Her arrest was in an

falo. She will be held prisoner un-
