on, Hansen and Berg.

The proposed funeral procession to-
day in honor Of Caron. Hansen and
Berg. the anarchist victims of the
Lexington av. bomb explosion last Sat

night.
MAJOR Mitchell held long conference
yesterday morning with Police Com
missioner Woods at the City Hall, at
the end Of which he announced that
no public parade would be tolerated.
"The Police Commissioner and arc
agreed that any parade is certain to
lead to breach Of the peace. and
, have directed that no procession be
permitted" said Mayor Mitchell.
Have the anarchists asked for
permit to march >" he was asked.
"Ycs, an application has been made
but the general policy of the city has
been not to allow private persons or
organizations to hold public funeral
services IN the streets or parks. Inc
free speech policy OF the administra'
tion will be continued. and these OF
other persons may meet under the con-
ditions laid down in the statutes and
will be protected IN their constitu-
tional rights"
The Mayor explained that his in
tention was simply to prevent the pro
posed parade and the public display OF
urns containing the ashes of the dead
dynamitcrs He said that no inter
ference would be offered il the friends
Of the dead men assembled in orderly
fashion to eulogize their dead com
rades or criticisc the government, so
long as no violence was preached.
Chief Inspector Schmittberger issued
n general order last night calling for
the mobilization at Union Square to-
day Of policemen from most of the pre-
cincts in the city. From those pre-
cincts upon which requistion was MADE
there will come a captain, Lieutenant
and forty men. There will be about
one policeman 10 every |. W. W.
The Anti-Mlitarist League and tho
Mother Earth Association, according 10
Alexander Berkmar, have abandoned
the parade plan. Bcrkman said that
the entire efforts OF the organization
would be centred on the mass meeting
which will he held in Union Square at
9 o'clock this afternoon.
Berkman's decision was displeasng
10 the anarchists and revolutionists
II had been arranged to have the urns
containing the ashes OF the three dead
dynamiters borne in a hearsc at the
head OF the procession. which was to
form M the 34th st. ferry and move
on 10 the park.
"Sweet Marie" CAM, who was re-
leased from the Queens County jail
last Saturday morning after serving a
term of sixty days for threatening
Johr d. Rockefeller, visited City Hall
yesterday afternoon TO get permit to
sneak Monday noon at the north end
Of the Municipal Building.
She told Lieutenant Kennel that II
was her intention to expose prison
conditions on Blackwell's Island and
explain the reasons for the recent
mutinics Of tho prisoners. Lieutenant
Kennel spoke to Mayor Mitchell and
returned with the message that no
permit was necessary. Marie went
away much pleased.
Before leaving the hall she explained
to the newspaper reporters that she
would be unable to take part in to-
day's demonstration at Union Square
as she would be out Of the city. She
declared that the trouble OH Black
Wells Island was not due to Commis-
sioner Davis, who, she said, was treat
ing the prisoners fairly, but that War
den HAYES was responsible. She de-
nounced Hayes and promised that she
would give him good tongue lashing
Monday.
