BOMB KILLS TWO.
Is Thrown in a Crowd in New York
Street.

New York. March 2S.-Two men
were killed in a battle between police
and 10000 men and women who had
congregated in Union square this aft
ternoon to take part in a .'demonstra-
ton of the unemployed"
The men were killed by a bomb
which was thrown into the crowd by
one of the demonstrators Several
persons were injured.
A great crowd had gathered in the
square, many persons carrying anarch-
ist banners and wearing red hats.
When the police $50 strong, and most
of them mounted descended upon the
crowd the marchers under the leader
ship of several women, began to sing
the 'Marseillaise. The air was taken
up by the crowd, and in moment the
volume of song drowned every other
sound in the big square. The crowd
appeared to be a good natured one,
however and there was little real re-
s1stance offered to the police. The
throng began to move away in differ
ent directions to the sidewalks and to
the side streets and gradually the song
died out. From time to time jeering
crowds would defy the police only to
break away and run for safety when
few minutes the square was practically
cleared and 1t was believed that the
trouble was at an end.
Gradually the police lines were with
drawn and a small crowd began to
gather in front of the park. They ap-
peared to have had nothing to do with
the demonstration and were standing
quietly when a man, followed by an
other big crowd, rushed into the square
The new corners headed directly for
the crowd in front of the park and the
man in the lead hurled a bomb into
the midst of the gathering. The crowd
fled in terror at the sound of the ex-
p1osion, leaving several of their num-
Der lying on the sidewalk. Two of
these were dead when the police reach
ed them. Some of the others were SER
oiusly hurt.
Zig Silverstein, about 80 years old
who lived in Brooklyn is accused by
the police of having thrown the bomb
He was taken to Bellevue hospital in
a dying condition. Silverstein's right
hand was blown off and one leg al
most severed from the body. The name
of one of the dead men was Irwin
RaSSky.

This Union is rapidly Fastening
toward a state of society in which
president, senate and house of repre-
sentatives, will fulfill the duties of
kings, lords and commons, and the
power of the community pass from
the democracy of numbers into the
hands of an aristocracy, not Of noble
ancestry and ancient lineage, but of
moneyed monopolists, land jobbers,
and heartless politicians" This
quotation is not, as might appear, a

this utterance. in 1910, after three
years residence in the United States.
