A TALK WITH HIM—HIS PROBABLE STAY IN THIS CITY AND FUTURE PLANS. A representative of THe STaR called at Meyer’s hotel this morning, where he found Herr Most, the German communist, who had arrived in this city at 10:30 o'clock last night from Philadelphia, in conversation with a gentleman over a glass of wine. Personally he 1s not so formidable a looking man as many suppose him to be. He 1s of small stature, rather nervous in his movements, with bright eyes, light hair, with one elde of his face defective, as if in conseauence of his left jaw having been broken. He speaks English fluentiy, although this 1s his first visit among English: Speaking people. “He stated that he is booked to lecture in German on Wednesday night, at Cosmo- politen Hall, on the Irish question ‘and about socialism and the late political movements in Europe. He will in this lecture show by historical facts and data how the down-trodden masses of Ire- land have been oppressed by Engltsh rule, and that the American people should support and sustain the Irish in thetr struggles against English rule. He will show that th position of the people in Europe 18 such that {¢4s Impossible for them to bear their present condition longer; this condition 13 growing worse and worse, In consequence of several measures now being’ taken by the Euro- pean governments against the people, by which they are driver to revolution. Workingmen, coniprising all kinds of mechanics, with peasants, farmers and the lower trades are now altogether very unuch excited about these acts and against the government, and the people are determined to shake off their’ shackles In the coming contest. states that he will remain here for a few days, aund will lecture on his views of European politics, ie will then go to Pittsburg, Pa. Cincinpati, St. Louls and the far west, possibly to San Francisco, but in this he is not quite settled. ‘To-day he will spend at Meyer's hotel, writing editorials for bis paper, Die Freineit, published in New York. AS a Matter of curiosity 1t may be stated that in the hotel register immediately above the name of Herr Most appears that of Mr. Hartmann. This does not represent the reputed Russian nihilist, but an. {nnocent German from New York, who arrived during the day. This evening Herr Most 1s to meet A. M. Kenaday, president of the Federation of Labor, and tue delegates at their.hall, when he will disclose his views and purposes. MISREPRESENTED. Herr Most states that ho has been greatly mis- Tepresented because of the reports made of his Chicago lecture. At that meeting only one of the reporters present understood the German lan- guage. This reporter was also the editor of the Chicagoer Freie Presse a papr, which he clalms, 1s supported by Bismarck, and hence ts intmical to him and his purposes, and this reporter made a false translation to the others, and put in his mouth the most nonsensical and extreme aayinee, which he did not utter, but which emanated from. the brain of sald reporter. A SKETCH OF HIS CARRER. He states that he was born in Augsburg, Bava- Ta, 5th February, 1846; was educated at thegram- mar school in that town,and subsequently learned the trade of a bookbinder. He left Augsburg in 1863, and went through Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Hungary, Italy and France, working at lis business here’ and there, and joining the so- cialistic movement In Locte, Switzerland, in 1866. Soclalisia in those days Was not 80 violent as now, because there was not nearly so much oppression: 4n 1869 he became a public speaker In Vienna, agi- tating the socialistic cause, both by mouth and. pen,in the German,French and English languages, and was Imprisoned In that city for one month. A’ few months later the governinent. became 80 ex- cited over the revolutionary doctrines that thelr meetings were stopped, their property confiscated and papers destroyed. "About 60,000 men marched through the streets, gathered round the parlia— ment louse, and sent a deputation to the chiet sveretary of’ state, of which he (Herr Most) was one, protesting aby the oppressions which were practiced, and asking for reforms, liberty of Speech, freedom of the press, &. IN PRISON, A few days afterwards he and other leaders were 4 imprisoned and kept for seven months, tried by a special court (not a jury), and condemned to five years’ penal servitude, which sentence, however, was remitted after a few months by the proclama” tion of a general amnesty. In April, 1871, he was BANISHED FROM AUBTRIA AND HUNGARY FOREVER. From {here he went to Germany, locating at Chemnitz,in Saxony, & large manufacturing town, where he commenced the publishing of the Chem- nitz Free Press. _ In 1874 he was elected a member of the German Reichstag from that district, and re-elected, retaining bis seat until 1878, when the Reichstag was dissolved. Notwithstand- ing his membership of that body he was arrested in 1874 and imprisoned in Berlin for twenty- six months, for Supporting the Paris commune, In 1876, while still In parliament, he edited the Berlin Free Press, was re-arrested and !mprisoned for seven months, for publishing so-called incen- diary articlesand banished from Germany in 1878, when the coercion bill against socialism sed the Reichstag. He then went to London in December of that year and edited the Rreihett a weekly paper published by the Com- munistic Workmen’s club in London. In 1879 he went to Belgium to visit friends, but on arriy- ing was ordered to leave that country within an hour; six police escorted him out of the city, and he returned to London. When Alexander tl. of Russia was killed in 1881 he wrote an article, expressing his gratification at the eventand urged the removal of all tyrants in that way. He was arrested, his paper and printing material taken in charge by the police, imprisoned for three months and finally sentenced to serve sixteen mosths in the Cold Bath Fields prison of London, his treat- ment in an English prison being far worse than in a German. On the expiration of his sentence in ‘The Hill Investigation.
