MAYOR SAYS THEY MUST BE BROUGHT
TO POLICE STATION IN PIECES IF
THEY CANNOT BE BROUGHT
OTHERWISE.

Paterson. " J., Sept. (SpeciaD.-Nothing
has been done by the authorities here in regard
to the anarchists but the latter evidently fear
they are in danger. because to-day they are all
silent and refuse absolutely to say a word TO
reporters This is unusual for them. as they
always delighted to get reporters TO listen
10 their views of government. in the hope that
the papers will print their views. They think
this is an excellent way of spreading their gos-
pei of destruction, and any one that was spoken
TO about the assassination of King Humbert
would Immediately burst out with TRADE or
monarchy and all rulers.
Benjamin Mazzatto. leader of the anarchists
here said to-day ne did not know what was the
view taken by the anarchists in Paterson of t.e
deed of CZolgOsZ. He admitted that he had an
opinion Of his own about the matter but he
would keep II 10 himself he had decided to
stop speaking for the newspapers. 1t is the same
with all the other anarchists They do not re-
joice openly at the shooting OF the President.
They inclined in public to deprecate the act.
and they all deny that they know CzOlgOsz or
knew anything Of his intentions. They eagerly
read the papers for news OF the affair and talk
about 1t among themselves
The people of this city are outspOken in their
Indignation against all anarchists. Everywhere
is heard the sentiment that they should be
driven out of the town Paterson people hate
10 the city. and this makes them bitter in their
GenunclatiOns. The authorities will have public
sentiment behind them If measures taken to
repIess the anarchists here and prevent them
from holding meetings where their doctrines are

The Rev Benedict Rosnski. pastor of St
Stanislaus's Church, stated that he knew the
man He said that Czolgosz had admitted to
him that he was anarchist He added:
About four years ago I asked Czolgosz for
contribution for the church. He surprised me
very much by refusing to give II. 1 asked him
why he would not contribute. and he said that
he was anarchist. / always supposed that
he a Catholic, and that was why 1 had
approached him on the subject OF contributions
He told that he had religion and that
he did not wish 10 help churches He said that
him and drive the anarchist principles out Of
his head, but 1t was to no purpose believe
that he was mentally unbalanced because he
acted and talked so strangely to me.
1t has been learned that Czo!gosz belonged to
an organization known the Sila Socialist
Club. Three years ago the club disbanded and
he left 1t. but Joined another.
Anton Zwolinski. of No. 2.1O2 Broadway. said
to-day:
Czolgosz made no secret of the fact that he
was anarchist. He always talking
about and trying to force anarchist principles
on every whom he talked with. He a
great coward. however, and I am surprised
that ne had the nerve to do as he did. 1t would
not surprise me to learn that he is merely the
tool OF some other persons: When the Sila

closeted with the police authorities to-day, and
at the conclusion of the interview the police
said they did not believe the members OF the or
ganizaton were connected in any way with the

way. When directly in front of the President
CZOlSOSz threw his right hand forward and
fired saw the flash and smoke, followed by

"Czolgosz's revolver had by that time been
knocked from his hand. and some one had
picked up the burning handkerchief which lay
at his feet. CzOgOsz was picked up. forced

and Mr.. Milburn supported the President and
led him to a chair. heard him ask that the
news be kept from his wife. and moment later.
when Secretary COrtelyOU asked him IL he felt

Met His Match.

That we'll known historical person
age, Augustus the Strong, elector Of
Saxony, has furnished the subject for
many a tale Of his wonderful muscular
power. We need refer only to one
characteristic story In which, however,
he met his match. On the occasion III
question he entered n blacksmith's
shop. To show his suit how strong he
was, picking up several horseshoes, he
broke IL after the other, asking the
blacksmith whether he had no better.
When it came to paying the bill, the
Elector Augustus threw n six dollar
piece ON the anvil. 1t was q very
thick coin. The blacksmith took it up,
broke it in half. saying, Pardon me,
but l have given you O good horseshoe,
and / expect q good coin in return" .
Another six dollar piece was given
him, but he broke that and five or six
others, when the Inundated elector put
an end to the performance by handing
the blacksmith a louisd'or, pacifying
him by saying, 1.-THE dollars were prob
ably made Of bad metal, but this gold
piece, l hope, is good"

Both Republican Again.

Both senators from Nevada are now in
the republican party again. Senator
Stewart announced his intentions a year
ago, and now Senator Jones follows him,
both holding that free silver is no longer
an issue" and saying that they left the
republican party on account of silver.
Mr.. Jones is not entirely correct in saying
that he has acted with the republicans on
all questions save that of finance, for in
the last congress he frequently voted with
the democrats on other questions, and
finally nobody vas able to tell how he
stood with regard to pending measures,

Delaware is to be represented in the sen
