ANARCHIST PHOTOGRAPH
Police Have Picture Of the
Bresci Picnic.

Joseph Bertinati, of No. 227 West Hous-
ton street, New York, who is prisoner
in the Hackensack JAIL held as sus-
picious character, and for "associating
with anarchists is photographer.
Among his effects confiscated by the po-
lice is group picture of the friends of
Mrs Bresci, widow of the assassin of
King Humbert. These friends gave Mrs.
Bresci 'benefit picnic at her home in
Cliffside Park last Sunday afternoon. The
members of the group are said to be SYM
pathizers with the dead anarchist, Bresci.
While Bertinati emphatically declares
he is not an anarchist, newspaper clip
ping was found in his notebook headed
ASSASSINATION of Rulers and Attempts
Since 1776." The police think this signifi-
cant.
Chief Marshal Newman has picture of
the group that met at Mrs. Brescis and
every member will be closely watched.
Mrs Bresci told me, herself, that SYM
pathizers with her husband pay her rent
of s35 every month";" said Newman to
reporter yesterday. There have been
several meetings at that house, but we
never could secure evidence enough to
make raid. We do not propose TO allow
anarchists to associate in our district if
we can avoid it"
Mrs Bertinati called yesterday upon
Prosecutor Koester, at Hackensack, and
said she was anxious to furnish bail for
her husband. She said her husband is
not an anarchist, and went to Mrs.
Bresci's to take photographs. AS there
will be no court in. Hackensack till Sat
urday, owing to President McKinley's
funeral, bail cannot be considered till
then.
The war of determination against
Anarchists in Newark, which has been in
stituted by the police and the Grand Jury,
was continued last night by the Excise
Board On complaint of Police Captain
Edwards it voted to reject the application
for a saloon license made by John Droz-
kowsky, of No 20 Charlton street. He is
charged with harboring the Anarchists
Zolkowsky and Cosceo, who were arrested
Saturday night in the saloon while in the
act of drinking a toast to the health of
Emma Goldman and Czolgosz and COM
mending the assassination of the Presi-
dent
The board decided that any saloon
keeper possessing a license ''who shall
be charged by the police with permitting
Anarchists to assemble in his place and
make demonstrations against the Govern
ment or the good order of the community
shall be, on being proven guilty, deemed
to be unfit to continue such business and
shall suffer the revocation of his license
and shall not again receive an excise IL
cense from this board"

that chancel rail where years ago he
plighteL his treth to the beloved woman
who is now weeping her life away over
his loss, William Mckinley lay in state
Simplicity marked the last services for
the dead President.
Because of Mrs. McKinley's critical con-
dition important changes in today's fun
eral programme were made at a late hour
last night. 1t was found necessary to re
scind arrangements for allowing the body
to be viewed in the early hours today and
to advance the time for beginning the
funeral services this afternoon.
Only forty-ive minutes were allowed
for the entire exercise at the church
The discourse was by the Rev. c. E.
Manchester, of the First Methodist
Church. The Rev. o. B. Milligan, of the
Presbyterian Church, prayed. Then a
Scripture reading, singing of Lead,
Kindly Light" and then the slow march
to the cemetery.
When the cemetery is reached the body
will be placed inside the temporary vault.
A guard will then be placed about it, and
night and day until its final resting place
is prepared vigilant watch will be main
tanned. Armed men win surround it and
no one viii be permitted to approach.
The new President will stand beside the
vault while the body of his predecessor is
placed within. England, Germany, France,
Russia Italy, Japan, China Austria, all
the civilized nations of the world, will
have representatives at hand to bear wit
ness to the grief they feel at the terrible
affliction the nation has sustained.

the body be brough3 home.
This request was too much for the
physician who has attended the every
want of the frail little body. He sent for
Col Bingham, who was managing the
details of the funeral. and told him he
thought the body should be brought TO
the house.
So at o'clock the coffin was borne to
the house and placed in the north parior
where twice Mr.. Mckinley has received
notification of his nomination Tor the
Presidency
There, where the happiest days OF their
lives had ben spent, she wept with her
dead. For an hour she was permitted
to sit in the room with the coffin. She
gazed long. and tearfully at the loved
face. Her grief at last became so plti-
ful that she was led away and induced
to retire.
1t seemed TO the friends who accom-
panied her throughout the journey from
Buffalo that her grief had worn itself out
yet when she came to her own nome she
broke down utterly
Between solid lines of sympathetic dig
nitaries of the nation and her own weep
ing townspeople she had to be carried
from the train to her home.
AS she descended from the funeral tram
yesterday, her black robed figure seeming
frail beyond description, she chung to Ap-
ner Mckinley and DR.. Rixey, and leaned
heavily upon the support of their arms
that formed a rest for her dropping
shoulders.
The expression of her grief was pitiful
to behold Through the black meSheS OIL
her veil could be seen black bordereo
white handkerchief pressed close against
her fearful eyes.
