the manner in which the life of Mr..
Wilson would be attempted.
1t was learned that the assassina-
ton of Mr. Wilson had been planned
by the anarchists as the first of a
series of murders throughout the
country to show the people of the
United States the power of anarchy
and rs the first lesson to the down =
trodden workingmeu' in how to
convert the United States into a
de emocracy Of the proletariat.
At the meeting in Philadelphia, it
was learned, the decision 10 kill Mr..
Wilson was reached only after con-
sidera BILE debate. 1t was argued that
some. lesser public official should be
sacrificed first. and that the death OF
the National Pr. sident should be ac-
complished as the elimination of Il
series OF murders of other smaller"
officials. This idea, however, was
discarded, and it was decided that
Mr.. Wilson should be the first whose
death should mark the march toward
proletarian freedom. a vote was
then taken as to the method by
which the President should meet his
death, and it was finally decided to
leave this to the discretion of those
who should be chosen to carry out
! the miSSlon.' Lots We're then
drawn to determine who should be
honor+d with this mission of death.

services OF this informant were more
necessary than ever, and it was de-
cided best to hold this man in ii stu
alton where he might still be of serv-
ice to the Government. Through his
intimate association with anarchists
and Communists in both New York
and Chicago, it was believed that any
similar plot which might later be at
tempted could be frustrated.
Therefore, with the deportation of
the five men the case of the attempt
cd assassination of Mr.. Wilson was
ended. 1t lives only as part OF the
records in the Bureau of Investiga-
tion offices in Washington.
