ANARCHISTS ARE
MUCH! AG|TATED
Many Meetings Held Throughout
Principal Cities in Demonstra-
ton Against King Of Spain.


New York, Oct 1S.-Aroused by the
fierce speech of Emma Goldman, the
Anarchist leader, thousand socialists
and anarchists packed an East Side
hall Sunday afternoon, and unmolested
by the police, adopted resolutions, de-
nouncing the death of Francisco Fer
rer, the Spanish revolutionist AL
fonso, the assassin" was muttered in
three languages, English, Spanish and
French, as the succeeding speakers
attacked the Spanish monarch and
limited that revenge was yet to come.
Miss Goldman sought to draw a par
allel between the case of Ferrer and
those of Meyer, Haywood and Petit
bone of the Western Federation Of
Miners. At the conclusion of the
meeting it was announced that more
comprehensive gathering will be held
in Carnegie Hall Tuesday night The
resolutions adopted today recite in
part:
"The murder of Ferrer was commit
ed by the unholy trinity-Church,
Money and Government. This trinity
revenged itself because Ferrer insti-
gated free anti-clerical schools where
in the results of Independent science
and pedagogy were taught. This
meeting denounces the murder as one
of the worst and most cowardly ever
committed under the disguise of the
law, and expresses its sincerest SYM
pathy and solidarity with the thou
sans of fighters for freedom who still
struggle in the clutches of the Spanish
inquisition-" {"
Although denounced by the resolu
tions, the death of Ferrer was hailed
by Miss Goldman as a cause for re-
joicing rather than of mourning. Il
am not here to mourn but to celebrate
Ferrer's death" she said. In this
age of greed, cowardice and indiffoII
ence we must rejoice that there was
a man like Ferrer who had rather
die than live like a dog"
