SOCIALIST PAPER BRANDS
HERR KRUPP A HYPOCRITE

BERLIN, Nov. 2S-The socialist organ,
Vorwaerts, in a page and a half Tuesday
deals with what it calls the Hypocrisy
of idealizing Herr Krupp as a benevo-
lent genius" The paper does not touch
on the immediate charge, which it brought
against the deceased but analyses the
pension department of the Krupp firm,
which It says is a species of refined swind-
ling. adding:
.s'The enormous so-called benevolent
funds have been built up by compulsory
contributions from the employees, who
could be arbitrarily deprived Of participa-
ton in the advantages. They are required
to contribute IL per cent of their wages
for 20 years before they are eligible to
the pension upon disability. In the mean
time. il any employee is discharged or re-
signs he loses all he contributed, often
exceeding $3.50.
THE employees are morally and eeonom-
ically terrorized and must in humility &C
cent the regulations OF the firms officials
or lose IL per cent of what they have
earned in the firms service This terror
ism is applied to political opinions where
they became known. The number of men
leaving or discharged during the past
three years averaged seven to eight thou
sand yearly The employees found the sys-
tenn so unsatisfactory that meetings were
held this year for the purpose of seek
ing legal redress.
The Vorwaerts cites an instance Of
labor representative on the advisory COM
mittee Of the benevolent pension fund
who mildly criticised the management
and who several days later. having in the
meanwhile paid his annual dues. was
dismissed.
The paper also quotes the German
budget committee proceedings as showing
that the Krupp works have been charg-
ing the navy 1900 per ton over what
the United States pays for nickle steel
plates, amounting yearly to $75O,OO0 for
Herr Krupp and the Sturm works.
The attacks on Herr Krupp and the in
tense feeling which they have caused
started a furious political discussion,
the socialists calling attention to the
degenerating influence of great wealth"
and the conservatives pointing out the
desperate. character of the socialist attack
on the existing order of society.

MOB IN OHIO.
IS CHEATED
OF PREY
OFFICERS SPIRITED PRISONER
AWAY WHILE MOB WAS
FORMING ON OUTSIDE OF
THE JAIL.

IRONTON. o., Nov. 29.-Shortly before
o'clock this morning a mob attempted
to take William GIassco, the assailant OF
Mary Maloney, from the county jail, but
was prevented by an extra force OF oIn-
GERS and the sheriff.
The mob was forming for All attack,
when Glassco was spirited away in car
rage toward the northwest. 1t is believed
he was taken In a roundabout way to the
Portsmouth Jail.
Glassco admitted assaulting Miss Ma
loney. and said it was done in revenge
for her brother striking him. The girl is
in a serious condition. Glassco knocked
her down by a blow on the head, but
fled when her screams brought help. He
was traced by bloodhounds.
The work of the bloodhounds is consid-
cred the best on record. They arrived
from Dayton, o., yesterday at noon and
at once followed the trail from the place
of assault, in round about courses, to the
saloon, where william Glassco had been
arrested They went over the course
the second time and then back to the
scene of the assault, followed by thou
sand enraged people, threatening ven
geance.
After these scenes in the afternoon, the
streets were filled with people all night
and it was evident to the authorities that
a lynching was contemplated.
Finally the mob assembled at Engine
House No. and selected so men as lead
ers in the general movement on the ar
mory and Jail. At the armory they de-
manded the keys of Captain Thompson.
who was in charge of the militia, so that
they could secure rifles On being refused
they opened fire with revolvers and Cap
tain Thompson narrowly escaped.
When the mob could do nothing at the
armory it moved on the Jail. The sheriff
refused the demand for the keys. Then
the mob moved off to secure battering
rams with which to break into the Jail
and the sheriff at once spirited the priso-
ner out of the rear Of the jail and es-
capped to Portsmouth.
While the mob was about the jail, Glass
co was wild with fright and confessed all
to the jailor. The mob is today trying
to organize to go to Portsmouth.
