Perhaps the most important elucida.
ton Of a system whereby the !. W. W
forces should go about it by sabotage
70 tie up the whole country is set forth
in one publication sent out from the
Chicago headquarters.
1t is a question from the address OF
Sebastian Faure on the subject Of
Technical Instruction as Revolu-
tons Handmade" as follows:
"The electrical industry is one Of
the most important industries, as an
interruption in the current means a
lack Of light and power in factories;
il also means a reduction in the
means of transportation and
stoppage of the telegraph and tele-
phone system.
"How can the power be cut off?
By curtailing in the mine the output
of the coal necessary for feeding the
machinery or stopping the coal cars
on their way to the electric plants.
If the fuel reaches its destination,
what is simpler than to set the pock-
cts on fire and have the coal burn in
the yards instead of the furnaces?
Il is child's play TO put out of work
the elevators and other automatic de-
vices which carry coal to the fire
room.
ITO put boilers out Of order use
explosives or silicates or a plain
glass bottle, which, thrown on the
glowing Goals, binders the combustion
and clogs up the smoke exhausts.
You can also use the acids to corrode
boiler tubes; acid fumes will ruin
cylinders and piston rods. A small
quantity of some corrosive substance,
a handful of emery, will be the end
of oil cups. When it comes to dyna-
mos or transformers, short circuits
and inversion of poles can be easily
managed. Underground cables can
be destroyed by fire, water or explo

As the league was unable to carry

that IL the league was to con-
