fed them IL taking extraordinary pre-
cautions.
The king attended the fete, and the
apparent enthusiasm with which he
was received did not seem to warrant
any serious alarm for his safety. But
Bresci, who was waiting among the
crowd for his return, must have real
lied that all the usual precautions had
been relaxed. The very method which
he had chosen for the crime proved
that he understood the local situation.
AS the king drove back to his palace at
Mouza Bresci, standing among a group
of people, raised his revolver and fired.
He had grooved the noses if his bullets
so that they would expand and make a
more fatal wound. 1t seems inconceiV-
able, but it is none the less a fact, that
he was allowed to fire three times, each
time taking deliberate and careful aim,
before he was arrested and the weapon
wrenched from his hand.
Each bullet hit the king, but il was
the first that proved fatal. The unfOr-
tunate monarch was driven rapidly to
his palace, and there, shortly after
wards expired.
Throughout the kingdom the news OF
this atrocity aroused the most furious
Indignation. 1t was believed that GER
tain officials must have been in league
with the anarchists to enable the crime
to be committed under such circum-

martyrdom. But it is simply folly to
judge a cause by the character of those
men who are engaged to perform its
most brutal and degrading work.
The secret societies naturally employ
the most debased type of man for their
work of assassination. He must be a
fanatic. a mailman who can be abso-
lutely relied upon. He must be capable
Of any act. however, vile; moreover, he
must be faithful TO those who inspire
and employ him. He must go TO his

Every one of the murderers / have re-
ferred TO in these articles was of this
type. But they did not act on their
own initiative; their crimes were in
spired and directed by that secret COM
mittee whose doings are the terror OF
Europe.

is to say, these words were not the
mere vapoTings of a diseased mind. but
the actual statement of a fact King
Humbert's death, though not COM
passed until 1900, had been arranged
for in 1898, just year after Acciarito's
futile attempt.
Bresci had been sent by the anarch-
lists from America in 1898 TO meet Luc-
cheni at Budapesth: there funds were
secretly conveyed to both OF them. and
they were ordered TO assist one another
in the particular work for which each
had been engaged. Bresci actually ac-

preme tact and supreme unselfishness.
He did his utmost to allay the unrest,
and in spite of the various incidents"
which occurred when he appeared in
public he went about his duties calmly
and unflinchingly, refusing TO resort to
unconstitutional methods, as was the
case with Dom Carlos under similar cir
cumstances, and confident that time
and the good sense of the people would
settle all difficulties.
He knew that his life was threatened,
but the thought left him unperturbed
After Acciarito's attempt he had
calmly remarked. These are the little
perquisites of our trade; but why
should I concern myself What must
happen must happen" 1t was in the
same spirit that he received warnings
of plot against his life from two diff
ferent quarters of the civilized world
On July 20 the Austrian government
communicated to him the full details
of an anarchistic plot against his life.
Next day his police, in common with
the police of the rest of Europe, re-
ceived a notification from the United
States that twenty-seven notorious an
archists. trained in the most violent
tenets of their faith, had left New York
for Europe with the avowed intention
of carrying out some wholesale con-
spiracy. the exact nature of which the
American authorities had been unable
to discover.
Meanwhile Bresci had arrived in Eu-
rope and had taken up his quarters at
PratO. Here he was supplied with
funds, and so | have been told, with
the weapon with which ne ultimately
committed the deed. 1t was a revolver
of the same pattern as that used by
an aTchists in the commission of sim
liar deeds, and this coincidence would
seem 10 point to the fact, which has
been narrated to me on more than one
occasion, but which ] have never been

is curious to think of him there in
Prato training. as a man trains for
some harmless sport, for the assassi-
nation of King Humbert.
From ali over Italy communications
We're sent to him by various anarchists
who were in the secret of the plot. He
was kept fully informed of the move
ments of the king and of the political
situation. Both these details were to
him of the greatest Importance, for it
was essential that he should know
where and when it would best serve
his purpose to strike. At last, towards
the end of July, he learned that the
king was to pass through Milan on his
way to attend a local fete at Mouza,
and he at once decided that this was
the time to commit the deed.
The municipal council of Milan at the
time was composed almost wholly of
Socialists. with whom his majesty was
peculiarly unpopular. Bresci knew, or
if he did not know himself the informa-
ton was given him by his friends, that
the council was not likely to concern
itself greatly about a royal visit, 1t
was conceivable that they might not
even make any preparations at all to
receive his majesty. Probably the
proper number of police would not be
supplied, ana PROBABLY, also, III SucH d
hotbed of socialism none of the OTdina-
ry precautions that attend the wander
ings of royalty would be taken. Under
such circumstances Milan or its neigh
borhood was just the place for such a
fanatical and daring desperate as
BreSci.
The event proved that Bresci had
been rightly informed. When the king
arrived at Milan railway station on
July 20 on his way TO MOuZa, not one
member of the municipal council was
present to receive him. At the time
little notice was taken of this incident,
which was regarded as only a proof of
bad taste or bad manners. The king
passed OH his way to MOuza. where the
Mouza initiated the prevailing politics
OF Milan, neither the police nor the
government officials imagined that the
attitude of the local authorities justi-

Before Luccheni entered the cell
which the cruel humanity of Swiss law
condemned him 10 inhabit for the re-
manning term of his natural life he ut
tered these sinister words:
Il should have been better pleased 10
Kill King Humbert. but what | failed
10 do will be done by another"
The human mind is so constituted as
TO lose impressions quickly. The terror
aroused by the long series of atrocities
perpetrated in the name of anarchy
leaves no lasting effect on the mind of
the public. A week elapses. and the
drama is forgotten. But the little in
ner world of continental OfficialdOm
does not forget so readily; it remembers
and fears.
1t happens invariably that after a
few weeks public and press alike de-
scribe one OF these tragedies as the
work of a half-witted lunatic, suffering
from form of exaggerated ego, which
cOmpels him TO believe that he has A

more active in their attack on anarch-
ism. 1t was, therefore, an unsuitable
moment to attempt the assassination OF
King Humbert. Bresci returned to
America, where he, obtained work as
silk weaver at Hamil and Booths
silkmills at Paterson, N. ]. Here he
remained until May z. 1900. leading a
quiet and inoffensive life with his wife
and children until the fatal summons
came to him again, and he once more
crossed the Atlantic.
At d secret meeting of anarchists,
which was held at Milan on Feb. 2, 1900,
it was decided that during the year an
other effort should be made to spread
the terror throughout the civilized
world. A list of the various monarchs
doomed to assassination was made out
and for the task of assassination each
of them lots were drawn. Those mem
bers of the organization who were not
present had their lots drawn for them
by proxy. 1t happened that i'm the
draw for the murder of King Humbert
of Italy the fatal number fell to an
Italian anarchist of the name of Car
boni Sporadic. Sporadic, though an
Italian by birth, was an American cit
iZen, and in consequence OF this fact
the society gave him the right TO
choose a substitute for the perpetra-
ton of a crime which had of necessity
to take place in Italy. His choice fell
upon Bresci, and instructions were at
once sent 10 the latter TO hold himself
i'm readiness to cross the Atlantic as
soon as he should receive the formal
summons
Early in May that summons ar
rived, ,and on May Z, Bresci left his
wife and family at Paterson and took
ship to Europe, knowing as he must
have known. that he would never re-
turn to America alive.
Everything i'm Italy favored the at
tempt. Considerable trouble had arisen
between King Humbert and his par
lament. in which the Socialists had
lately greatly increased their forces.
All over the country disorders were
prevalent; on various occasions the
king was openly insulted in the street.
But King Humbert was a man of SUI

stances. It is certain, at any rate. that
the local authorities Of MOuza, If not
actually in league with Bresci's confed-
crates, were. at any rate, almost Grim
inally responsible, by their absolute
neglect of duty in providing adequate
means for the kings protection, for the
tragedy.
Bresci's trial was like the trial OF all
other anarchists. He refused to in
criminate his cOnfederates. he attempt
ed to justify his conduct by declaim-
ing the principles Of anarchism, and he
went to the prison which was for him
a living tomb with that curious cOur-
age which. in spite OF all, wins our re-
luctant admiration.
Europe was once more in arms. and
of the extensive campaign planned by
the secret societies only one other step
was found pOssible-the attempt by
Salson on the shah of Persia's life
That failed, and the elaborate and exp
pensive precautions taken by all the
continental powers to preserve the lives
of their rulers prevented the remain
der of the elaborate plot being put into
execution. =
