long haired individuals Of the foreign
type. which we have seen on our
streets during the last year have been
! bonatidp fugitives from the Russian
police. But doubtless some of them
have been rather questionable char
acters Any doubt on that point has
been removed. A few mornings ago

to read in one of the morning papers

Quantity of dynamite and other ma
terials for bombmaking in the lodg-
ings OF two young workmen who be-

| Russia. and to have housed some of
these at different times. One of these
young SWedes fhey were brothers
named TarssOn) was the author of
little volume of revolutionary poems
called the Songs Of Hate" while the
other one had no other connection with
literature than being employed at
boOkhinder's. One of the Films who

every corner. with the result men,

and the brother was looked up at the
workshop where he is employed, hand
cuffed and brought away to the po-
lice station. Roth denied all knoWl-
edge of the find and protested against
the arrest. They were detained for
some time and then allowed to go, but
their belongings were kept under sur
veillance and made a kind of trap for
any suspicious character who might
call In this way the police made
another very important capture. They

the chief of the celebrated Finnish
revolution band. the Red Guard, after
the still more famous Captain Kock,
