A temporary charge of carrying revolv-

authorities east about for some more
substantial reason for holding them.

lii visw of the moniehtary popular
derision over the exploded Palmer proph.

hadn I occurred. and the momentary OPP
position to the secret police. So the
authorities fell back on the same meth
ods used in the famous Tulsa oil ease
against Charles Krieger when the re-
moval of an agitator was desired. They
were charged with regular criminal
offense. The murders at South Brain.
tree were laid against both men and the
additional charge of taking part in the
Brideewater affair was placed against
NanzetIi who had been more prominent
in the agitation over the outragcs com.
mitted on SalsedO and Ella
No steps were omitted to cinch the
charges. Witnesses of the Bridgcwater
and So. Braintrce crimes were brought
into the police station where they saw
the Italian prisoners surrounded by po-
lice Officers. 1t is well known that
Italians look more or less alike to the
eyes of many Yankees, but in spite of
this several witnesses said positively
that these were not the men they had
seen. But others took it for granted
that the men the police were holding
must be the right men. The police made

Sscco Vanzetti Defense Committee
which is raising funds for defense.
