signs. appeared at Chicago police headquarters

The Chicago police naIvely disclaimed any
knowledge as to Novak's presence In Chicago,
simply suggesting that he was former resi-
dent here and that he had returned on d JUS

Speaking Of the story told by Emma Goldman.
Mayor Harrison said
"I believe she is exactly what she says she is
| a rank anarchist She is woman of decidedly
| great ability, and even If she were connected
| with a deed OF that sort L think she is too
smart to be caught at it,
"Of course" he continued, "in all the accounts
OF the police department in this matter have
been acting merely under instructions received
from Buffalo. We are simply concerned in get

WHAT MISS GOLDMAN SAYS
Miss Goldman disclaimed all save the slight
est acquaintance with the Presidents assailant;
she denied absolutely that she. anarchists she
knew. implicated in any plot to kill the
President. She said she believed Czolgosz acted
entirely on his own Responsibility, and that he
never claimed to have been inspired by her. as
he is quoted affirming.
The President. she averred with a yawn, was
an Insignificant being to her-a mere human
atom, whose life or death were matters OF su-
preme Indifference 10 her to any anarchist.
CzoIgosZ's act foolish, yet she declared II
probably had its inspiration in the misery which
the Pole had seen about him. Violence, she said,
was not a tenet In the faith of the anarchist and
she had not advocated II in Cleveland. where
Czolgosz bas said he heard her, elsewhere.
What do you think of your own arrest?" she
was asked
''If told you." she replied, "it would look
somewhat conceted and / certainly would not
like to be guilty Of that. Not only my arrest,
but the Others smack OF the Haymarket. The
police are very much in disrepute all over the
country and they wish to do something to clear
themselves. They are trying to make 1t an
anarchist plot: if they wish to make up case
they may succeed"
