The Central Federated Union was in a
| state Of uproar for an hour yesterday. The
! trouble began when Delegate Holland OF
the Eccentric Firemen's Union shouted o ut:
"There is a sneak in the hall! There is a
man there at the back who scabbed it on the
engineers! He does not belong here"
Shouts Of Put him out" we're heard,
and Sergeant-at-arms Waldinger was in
str7loted TO eject the intruder. Edward j.
EHanrey. who il said to be a member Of a
rival organization of engineers to the one in
the. Central Federated Union. Waldinger
grabbed Hanley around the waist and
Hantey resisted. The fought all the. way to
the door, where Hanley caught hold'of the
door lamb and Waldinger could not move
him. A number Of other delegates hustled
him into the corridor and the door was shut.
Hanley soon came back with Policemen
Hamilton and Fuhsey OF the Eldridge
street station. one of Hanley's' eyes was
. blaokened and his clothes were badly mussed
up. He DECLARED that james Holland Of
the eccentric firemen had hit MIN in the eye
and ne wanted him arrested
The appearance of the policemen gave
the Socialist delegates a chance. They
deciated- that the police had no right to
come into a private meeting and hat this
was. added proof that thece was one law
for the rich and another for the poor. Then
there was a cry that the reserves vera
coming and Detectives Landers and Hart
Appeared 80
Move we adjourn!' shouted several
voices and there was an Immediate STAN
pede from the hall. Meantime Hanley
kept bobbing back and forward and there
was another mxup on the staircase.
The police. went away and the meeting
reeumett it's session. Then the police and
Hanley appeared again, and it Sas decide
to 90 into executive session. Whhe~the
meeting was gong on inside There .%us a
far noisier meeting outside. Finally a
number Of the delegates followed -Hanley
the two, uniformed policemen and the de-
~tectives to the Eldridge street station
where Hanley preferred a complaint against

After hearing all hands Sergt. Schulum
told the police that they had no right to
break into a private meeting. he adztsad
the complainant to get a warrant i'll the
Essex Market court to-day and bring him
| afterward 10 court with a -bondsrran.
The chief speaker at the meeting was
Nicholas T~schaikovsky, HVho was sent here
by the Russian revoluti9nists to enlist the
sympathy of the working people in this
country for the Russian workingInen.

your brothers thousands of miles away
from these shores before YOU. / have

believe the trade union movement TO be
| the core OF the national movement for life
and liberty now going on in Russia. The
|, revolution is the fight of the working
! clds~seS-peasants as well as mechahlcs.
There are over 100000 Of people now in
the movement in Russia, and the unions are
acquiring magnificent power.
1.-The workinEmen's unions in Russia are
not recognized 10y law, Nhen the Russian
Government saw that the unions were
gaining strength it tried to mislead the
%orkingmeh. Ii formed unions with
Government officials at their head. and told
the. wofKinEmen that they Should Join these
unions If they wanted 70 gain liberty.
MANY thousands of our workingmen
were cajoled into joining these sham unions,
led by sham leaders, who'FSere Government
suies in disguise. All their officers We're
.reaGttonaries, and the working people. went
down and down till they were yeritabIe
|. eLs yes,'. .BIt. they awakened, to this fact
and swarmed into their regular unions.
Then. the Government showed its hand
and niaSSacre was the result:
II am not here to tell all the horrors of
the Government outrages since the tiule
hat men and women were shot down in
cold blood when they went with a petition
TO the Car. 1t would TAX a week TO tell
yo1. | am here merely to enlist your.
sympathy. We have had the sympathy Of
the English and the German labor orgeni-
cations, and we want yours. our cause
is ours, and our cause is yours
A vote of sympathy wrs then carried,
and IL was decided that the usual donation
TO outside organizations be given. This
by The constitution of the c. +. L.. il only
SIS. but it was explained that,it was more
to show the sympathy of the body than
anything else.
