ANARCHIST Sign
CUT ON Face OF
MURDER VICTIM
Letter rs" Found on Cheeks of
Dead Man Stimulate London
Police in Hunt for "RedS."

LONDON, Jan. 5.-Anothor element
OF mystery pointing to Anarchist plots
developed to-day at the Inquest Into
the denth OF Joseph Boron. whose mu-
,Ilntel body was found on Chaplain
Common last Sunday. The murder is
attributed by the police to tho Hounds
ditch Anarchist-burg1ar gang. two
members OF which were killed in the
raid on their den Tuesday.
The physicians who examined Beron's
body said that they found on each cheek
a wound clearly cut In the form OF the
letter -" The witnesses declared that
this deliberate cutting did not cause
death. was quite symmetrical and OBJ
viously symbolical OF a secret society
They had never seen anything OF the
sort before. The inquest was adjourned
to Jan. 80. The police accept the theory
that Boron was killed by the members
OF an organization OF yelled purposes,
who left the sign OF their order upon the
body OF the victim.
The police are not satisfied that Peter
the Painter was one OF the two men
killed in the sidney street battle and
are nux working on the theory that he
Is alive and stlll at large. Throughout
tho night 200 armed officers secured the
district OF the East End where the out
laws are supposed to have lived. and
another spectacular fight IL promise,
should the fugitive be cornered.

DAY
PICNIC At
HAMMOND
Lake County Trades and
Labor Council Selects Kin
del's Grove at Hammond
as Place for Annual Cele-
bration.

Hammond was formally selected last
night by the Lake County Trades and
Labor council as the place for the an
nual labor day picnic. 1t was further
decided to hold a parade, and not to
solicit any prizes from the merchants.
but any premium that business men
may desire to give will be gratefully
accepted.
The celebration will be held at Kin
dels grove, this place having been
chosen because 1T is better fitted for a
picnic than any other place which could
be provided.
The question of choosing city and
place entailed lengthy discussion. Ac-
cording to precedent, it should have
been East Chicagos turn to entertain
the unions and their families. and that
city would have felt honored in doin &
so. but the question of expense for pro-
viding a dancing pavilion and shelter
in case of rain was a material item.
and with the consent of the East Chi
cago delegates Hammond was selected.
J. ]. Sullivan. president of the coun-
cil which includes every craft in Lake
county affiliated with the American
mittee of seventeen as a picnic COM
hcairman. w. J. CHM was made vice
chairman, Tom Harle treasurer and Jo-
seph Kasper secretary.
The plans for the celebration in Ham
| mond have been made so definitely and
work on them has begun so early that
| the result must be a success.

FIGHT To
A FINISH
IN VILLAGE

NO compromise-well fight to the
finish. This was the slogan adopted
last night at a meeting held in White
the question was discussed whether
the taxpayers on 155th street should
continue the fight in the Cook county
circuit court against the special paw
Ing assessment, or compromise on the
basis of feducetion of s17 per lot
In accordance with this policy of no
compromise. Miss Virginia Brooks, who
is the leader in the fight in what she
terms illegal assessments, and a score
of West Hammond people went to Chi
cago this morning, where Judge Owens
in the circuit court was to take up the
hearing this afternoon where it had
been left off a week ago at the time a
continuance was granted at the request
of the contractors, Eckberg and Strom-
berg.
The militant taxpayers are not only
fighting an additional assessment
amounting to nearly $4,000, on which
the compromise was based but will at
tempt to have the entire assessment de-
clared invalid on the grounds that the
paving was not up to specifications
Quite a number of speeches were
made last night, and it appeared to be
the consensus of opinion that accept
ing the compromise would be admitting
the balance of the assessments 81 thing
that the taxpayers do not want to do
without legal fight.
