PREPARES
TO PREVENT
MURDER

Chicago, May 4-UhicAgo anar.
chists will attempt to hold an open
air mass meeting tonight to commem-
crate the anniversary of the Haymar.
ket square riot in Chicago. May 4,
1886. 1t is likely that the police will
attempt to break up the meeting, and
q repetition of the recent Union
square riot in New York is feared.
Seven policemen we're killed and
about sixty persons injured in the
famous Haymarket affair. A monu-
ment marks the spot where .he po-
licemen fell aud the anarchist SYM
pathizers have also erected monu-
ment. 1t is in the vicinity of that
memorial to their dead "heIoes'' that
the reds hope to hold tonights demon
stration.
The Chicago riot of May 4, 1886,
which eliminated in the throwing Of
bomb and the firing of revolvers at
the police by the so.called anarchists,
was the result Of violent public in
citement on the part Of socialistic
leaders. Serious rioting had already
occurred the day before in conse.
quence of the strike Of the railway
freight handlers and the efforts Of
other men to replace them.
An open-air meeting was called
by the leaders in the old Haymarket
on Randolph street. August Spies.
A. X. Parsons and others addressed
the crowd in inhammatory Language.
While the latter WAS speaking four
patrol wagons filed with policemen
we're seen approaching.
Three bombs were suddenly thrown
among the police. They exploded
instantly and five policemen fell and
many policemen and socialists were
wounded. The police opened fire
with their revolvers upon the crowd
and the rioters returned their fire.
also with revolvers. A desperate
fight followed, but the police at
length cleared the ground.
Two policemen were found to be
dead. five mortally wounded and "a
dangerously wounded.
OF the sooialistic leaders, two
brothers named Spies. Samuel Field.
en-, Michael Schwab. Adolpb Fischer.
George Engel, Albert r. Parsons,
Oscar Weber and Louis Ling were
arrested The actual bomb thrower,
supposed to be one Schnaublet, was
never caught. Ling committed sui
eide in prison by blowing the top OF
| his head off with q small bomb.
August Spies, Fischer, EnRel and
Parsons were hanged ss Schnaubel' s
accomplices November II. 1887.
Fielden and Schwab were sentenced
for life and Neebo for 10 years.
For many years fierce controversy
has been waged over the justice OF
the execution Of Spies. Fischer. En-.
gel and Parsons. In n book ON the
subject. the late Governor Altgeld Of
Illinois, declared that the hanging
of the reds was nothing short OF Legal
murder. Many other prominent Legal
authorities have expressed the same
opinion, while others equally emf.
nent have defended the justice snd
legality Of the sentence.

fred 8. Barnard, one OF the attorneys

suit brought by it against the South
Carolina dispenary commission; was
this afternoon asked by the News and
Courier correspondent concerning the
report that some steps would be ta-
ken to have Attorney General Lyon.
OF South Carolina. attached for con-
tempt. and his attention was also
called to the interview in which Mr..
Lyon was quoted as referring to tho
attorneys representing the creditors
OF the State dispensary who have
brought suit as ''harpies." and in re-
ply Mr.. Barnard said. mo attorney
representing the complain1nts in the
South Carolina dispensary cases has
ever suggested. so far as know, that
contempt proceedings might be in-
stituted against Mr.. Lyon on account
OF his remarks concerning Judge
AASSNSA0 ohO ihS CIIttClSm OF the
judge foT appointing receivers.
"The attorney general appears to
be seeking notoricty, but It is not
probable that any further attention
will be paid to hira.
1t is almost inconceivab BILE that amy
lawyer worthy Of being elected to the
high office of attorney general in a
State in which the people ale noted
for their uniform courtesy, as the
people of South Carolina, should have
attempted such aspersions as Mr.
Lyon is reported to have cast upon
counsel who appear in opposition to
him In this litigation.
1t must be either that the attorney
general has been misquoted or he has
permitted his disappointment to get
the best Of him."
