Yet when given opportunity during
their many appearances in court to
air their views they repudiated vio-

"The anarchist never advocates a
reign Of terror" said Berkman.
."Anarchism means the negation Of
violence. Anarchists teach self-reli-

Helped Cause Murder
OF President Mckinley

Their joint activities as publishers
of the anarchist magazines, Mother
Earth" and "The Blast" suppressed
during the war combined with their
addresses at anarchists meetings,
helped cause the assassination of
President Mckinley, the government
charged in it's deportation proceed
ings. The confession of Czolgosz de-
seribed the influence which Miss
Goldman's writings had on him.
Their influence was traced in the
dynamiting of the Los Angeles Times.
Matthew Schmidt and David Caplan,
now in jail with others for that crime
were "of the Goldman clan." Attor-
ney General Palmer has said.
They were suspected of receiving
German money to oppose prepared
ness by the United States before the
United States entered the war.
They co-operated with German
spies in endeavoring to promote 4
revolutions In India during thes,war:
esv They were the pioneer radicals in
the United States. Now there are

MINI. REPRESENTATIVE
MAKES BITTER ATTACK
ON GENERAL FERSHING

Minneapolis, Dec. 22.-Represen-

sofa, denounced General John J.
Pershing, in an address here today.
He declared that General Pershing is
seeking the presidency of the United
States and is absolutely unfit for
the Office" II have felt it my duty
to do what could to thwart the am
bitions Of this man." he said.
Representative Schall was the only
member of congress to vote against
comforting the full rank of general
on the overseas commander in chief
of the American army.
My objection to rewarding Per-
shing with full generalship was not
that it would foster militarism, but
it would be rewarding an unworthy
officer, an un-American, un-repre-
sentative officer"
Mr.. Schall said General Pershing
was "inhuman and cruel" and that
he censored information that went
| from France to America to his own
advantage. He also attacked Gen.
eral Pershing for his alleged "snub"
of the congressional committee that
went to France.
"The general thought himself too
great man to be humiliated by hav-
ing the use he made Of the talent en-
trusted to him questioned by a con-

MOTHER OF GIRL
ACCUSES MAN IN
TABOR MYSTERY
Confession of Aged Woman
Charges Husband Of Girl
With Attempting to Per-
form Illegal Operation.
:By the AssO:Ia,vI. r-oas)

Lawton, Mich, Dec. "a signed
statement accusing JOS. Virgo of per-
forming an illegal operation upon
Maude Tabor has been made by Mrs.
Sarah l. Tabor, S0year-old mother
of the brilliant linguist, whose body
was found in a trunk in the base
metn of her home here, Assistant
Prosecutor Glenn Warner announced
this morning.
The statement which is in direct
contradiction to the story told by the
aged women at the inquest covers 80
pages and was made to him, Warner
declared, in the Jail at Pawpaw, near
here shortly after midnight.
Mrs. Tabor charges that Virgo,
who was married to Miss Tabor about
a year before her disappearance in
1916, took her to a deserted farm
house, somewhere in the neighbo"-
hood in Lawton, kept her there thrae
days and then brot her home where
she died. The statement adds that
Virgo crammed the body of his wife
into what was to have been her
"hope chest" and conveyed 1t into the
cellar, after she prevented him from
shipping the trunk out of the state.
Virgo has been held in the county
Jail at Pawpaw, nearly a month on a
warrant charging murder
In her testimony at the inquest
Mrs. Tabor, brot back from Califor-
MIA with her son, Walter, on charge
of murder, denied she had any
knowledge of a criminal operation or
any reason for one. This testimony
was given after Dr. A. s. Warth;;,,
University of Michigan pathologist
analysis Of the woman's viscera prov
ed she had died of hemorrhage in
cident to induced child birth. Mrs.
Tabor maintained that her daughter
had died in her arms in their home
here from an overdose of chlorofor:n
taken to relieve asthma. She told
a dramatic story of how in fulfill
ment OF death pact. whereby she
and her daughter were to be buried
together she had withheld the body
from" burial. She declared that she
had placed the body in the hope

The body of Miss Tabor, univer.
sity of Michigan graduate and for.
mer school teacher, was found "jacl,.
knitted" in the trunk on November
30 by her sister, Mrs. Florence
| Critchlow.
Virgo at the inquest denied any
knowledge of an illegal operation
