2 "HIGH PRIESTESS PRISONER REMANDED BY JUDGE Emma Goldman and Al- leged Accomplices Re- sort to Habeas Corpus Magistrate Refuses to Act Pending Proceed- ings in Higher Court R HICAGO, Sept. 11.—Magistrate Prindiville to-day said that Emma Goldman, the anarchist lecturer under arrest here, should be held without bail pending a decision of the upper court in the habeas cor- pus proceedings instituted by the anarchists who are similarly other charged, The action of Justice Prindiville in hoid- her without bail extends only to Fri- day of this week.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 1.—The Depart- ment of Justice has not decided upon any steps to secure possession of Emma Gold- man for the purpose of taking action against her in the Federal courts. She was arrested by the Chicago police on the request of the Buffalo authorities and it is supposed by the Department of Jus- tice that she will be tsken to New York State. The belief is that the Governor Pears’ It is 2 wonderful soap that takes hold quick and does no harm. No harm! It leaves the skin soft like a baby’s; no aikali in it, nothing but soap.

The authorities are already in possession of cvidence pointing in this diréction, but there is nothing vet to indicate who the men are who are to make the next at- tempt. It is hoped that some of the an- archists now under arrest may reveal a substantial clew. An anonymous letter is in the posses- sion of the authorities in which the writer, whose mind has evidently been in- fluenced by demagogic denunciations of the President as a tool of trusts, declares that if he survives the bullés of Czol- gosz, he will yet be killed. Ordinarily, lit- tle attention is paid to anonymous letters, but at this time every clew that canm pos- sibly have a bearing on the attempt to kill the President is being fellowed out, and if the writer of the letter can be as- certained through the medium of post- marks or in any other way he will be arrested. Not only the President but other high officials are being threatened. Solicitor General Richards, who in an interview in- dicated his willingness to prosecute any of the conspirators who might be brought into the United States court, received a threatening letter to-day signed “‘Brutus” and warning him to direct his attention toward trusts rather than the assailant of the President. Chief of the Secret Service Wilkie has nothing to say about the work that is now being done to unravel the plot against the life of the President. He is keeping in close touch with the situation in Buffalo and throughout the count: Chief Wilkie says it is a mistake to con- nect Baron von Mugge with the secret service in any way. He says Von Mugge is not now, and never was, connected with the service. @ ittt oo ettt of Illinois will honor any requisition the Governor of New York may make for the prisoner. The secret service authorities state that Miss Goldman was not arrested at their request and that they have no idea of proceeding against her unless di- rected by the Department of Justice to do €0, or unless they secure testimony show- ing that she was involved in the shooting of the President. Chief Wilkie said to-day that so far he had not secured any evidence tending to show that the anarchist bodies at Pater- | son, N. J., had anything to do with the shooting of the President. Chief Wilkie denied in most positive terms the report that his office had received warning that the President’s life would be attempted at Buffalo. “Usually we get a large number of let- ters from cranks every time the President goes to a place,” said Chief Wilkie, “but we did not get even any crank letters be- fore the President went to Buffalo. We investigate practically all the warnings and intimations that come here, no mat- ter how convinced we may be that they are from irresponsible persons and we would have made an investigation this time hkd anything been received.” e DENIES HE PREDICTED McKINLEY ASSASSINATION Antonio Mngglo—Sst the Reports Circulated About His State- ments Are Untrue. SILVER CITY, N. Mex., Sept. 1..—The preliminary hearing of Antonio Maggio, the anarchist, who is said to have pre- dicted the shooting of President McKin- ley, will occur before United States Com- missioner Newcomb Saturday, September 21. Deputy United States Marshal Fred Formoff to-day swore out the warrant for his detention, charging him with conspir- acy to kill in the United States. Antonio Maggio was born on the island of Sicily, January 2, 1877. With two broth- ers he came to New Orleans, at which point and at Baton Rouge he lived for three or four years, going from there north, traveling with circuses and theatri- cal companies. It was 1wo years ago, the summer of 1899, when He claims he got his first lesson in anarchy in Kansas City, Mo., where he heard Pedro Revochio lec. ture on the subject of anarchy and re- ligion. He denies statements credited to him here and elsewhere relative to pre- dicting the assassination of the President and the Emperor of Germany. Maggio has a brother in Leavenworth, Kans., and one in New Orleans. e R TGS PLOT TO ASSASSINATE HEIR TO BRITISH CROWN Canadian Police Taking Extreme Pre- cautions to Protrct the Duke of Cornwall and York. MONTREAL, Sept. 11.—Since - the at- tempt upon the life of the President there has been much disquietude in Canadian police circles over reports that a similar | attempt might be made on the Duke of Cornwall and York during his approach- ing visit to this country. To preven possibility of any such occunl-]ence etxgl: police precautions will be taken, and a pecial force of men under the direction of Chief Sherwood of the Dominion police and Chief Detective Carpenter of Mon- trezal will be detached to watch over the safety of the royal party during its pro- gress through the Dominion. That thers repared to make an attempt on the life of the heir apparent to t}?e British crown is shown by a letter re- ceived by the City Clerk of Montreal to- day. The letter is written in Itallan and covers twelve sheets of note T. The writer signs himself Giovanni Cob- bioni, and states that he is & Pbublic bens- 5 & MAN WHO FIRST AIDED PRES- IDENT AFTER SHOOTING, AND ONE OF DOCTORS.

J., have arrived in Montreal with the avowed purpose of murdering the Duke of Cornwall and York. Their intention, | he declares, is to throw a bomb at him as the procession is starting from Viger square through the city. The civic of- ficials are inclired to regard the letter as the concoction of some individual desir- ous of getting up a scare, but the letter was sent to the police for investigation, | and every precaution will be taken to see | that no suspicious characters approach the royal party during their visit to Mon- treal. ROOSEVELT IS NOT LIKELY TO CONTROL Cabinet Officers Have Not Seen Ne- cessity for Calling on the Vice President. BUFFALO, Sept. 11.—Many persons as- sumed just after the attack on the Presi- dent that as he would at least be pre- vented from discharging the duties of his office for a period of several weeks and perhaps months it would necessitate call- ing upon Vice President Roosevelt to act |in his place until he had recovered. Members of the Cabinet never had any | idea that the Vice President would be called upon, excepting in the case of the death of the President or his permanent | inability to act. Secretaries Root, Hay, Hitchcock and | Wilson met yesterday morning in the Mil- burn house and after remaining together | for an hour adjourned to the Sprague | residence, which is near at hand, for lunch. They remained there until nearly 3 o'clock before. making another call at the Milburn house. They discussed thoroughly the situation as it exists and various matters of state which require attention in several departments of the Government. They agree that it would be useless for them to remain in this city, especially in view of the fact that the physicians have asserted that abso- lute quiet is necessary for the Presi- Gent’s recovery and that he will not be able to discuss administration affairs for two or three weeks at least. It is under- stood that the President has indicated | that he would feel easler if he knew his Sccretaries were in Washington. FREE LOVE COLONY Tacoma Anarchists Declare the Shoot- ing of the President Justi- fiable. TACOMA, Sept. 11.—Since the shooting of President McKinley attention is being given to a large colony of anarchists and free lovers in this county. The colony is made up of anarchists who have attained more or less prominence in Chicago and Northwestern cities. Among them is John Pope, who four years ago was jailed in Portland for sending obscene literature through the mails. Another is Lois Wais- brooker, a woman more than 70 years old, formerly of New York, who loudly de- nounces what she calls the present sex | slavery of women. She prints a paper called Clothed With the Sun, in which she advocates free love. ; Leaders of the colony do not hesitate to declare that Czolgosz _was justified in shooting President McKinley. They claim it was no worse than the shooting of the Tilipinos by American soldiers, _Two years ago Emma Goldman visited Puget Bound and was heard by many persons now members of this colony. e news- paper organ of the colony is called Dis- content. |~ County officers have the colonists under | surveillance and are endeavoring to learn | how closely they are connected with Eastern organizations now being investi- gated by Government agents. WARRANT IS ISSUED FOR ALBERT WEBER DANBURY, Conn., Sept. 1L.—A warrant for breach of the peace was issued to-day for the arrest of Albert Weber, who, it is alleged, declared yesterday at the factory of T. C. Millard & Co., where he was em- ployed as a hatmaker, that he knew be- fore the shooting occurred that President McKinley was to be assassinated. ‘When Weber reported for work the other workmen in his de ment of the factory left the room and h tendent that they would not work with Weber denied that he was an anarchist. The police have not found him to serve the warrant. UNDER SURVEILLANCE y born.

The evidences of improvement were the President’s keen relish of the beef juice given him during the night and the in- crease in his allowance of from one to three teaspoonfuls, anu also the fact that the wound is becoming ‘“‘more healthy,” Dr. McBurney exprned this afternoon that the SHght irritition still remaining should pass away within the next twenty- four hours. Patient in Excellent Spirits. The President continues in excellent spirits, but he confessed to one of the at- tendants to-day that he was getting lone- some. He requested that he be placed in another bed. A depression had formed in the mattress on which he had lain since he was taken to the Milburn house and had caused some discomfort. Another bed was provided, and this evening he was carefully moved from one to the other without difficulty. He has asked several times if there was any news which he should know, but inquiries, especially about public matters, are discouraged, and the rigid inhibition against the ad- mission of any one except his wife and faithful secretary has not been relaxed. It is now virtually decided that no at- tempt will be made to remove the Presi- dent to Washington until he has com- pletely recovered, and in @ general way it can be said that there is no likelihood that this will be before October. The phy- sicans have all agreed that no attempt should be made to take the President to ‘Washington while the probability of an oppressive hot spell in the capital city remains. Mrs. McKinley displays the same forti- tude she has shown since the tragedy oc- curred. She went out for a drive aBain to-day and appeared bright and cheerful. The five members of the Cabinet who are here talked over pending public ques- tions for over an hour to-day at the Glenny house, adjoining the Milburn res- idence, but it is said that no action re- sulted. The South American situation was gone over, and there was an exchange of opinion regarding the legal phase of the case against the would-be assassin. It was stated again in the most positive manner that there is no conflict of au- thority Dbetween the State and Federal authorities for the possession of the pris- oner. After this afternoon’s bulletin, Secre- tary.Hay announced that he felt war- ranted in leaving for Washington, and he left to-night for the capital. i s e GIVEN TAR, FEATHERS AND RIDE ON A RAIL Man Who Said He Was Glad the Pres- ident Was Shot Is Speedily Punished. CASPER, Wyo., Sept. 11.—Hans Wag- ner, who is said to have expressed sym- pathy with Czolgosz, was to-day tarred and feathered and ridden out of town on a rail. The citizens who did this warned Wagner that if he should return he ‘would be lynched. Wagner was knocked down and beaten until he became unconscious last night by men who declared they heard him say that President McKinley got what he de- served and he (Wagner) was glad of it. This morning Wagner denied that he had made the statements attributed to him, but the indignant citizens decided that the evidence against him was conclusive. Many proposed to hang him, but it was finally agreed to ride him out of town on a rail after administering a'coat of tar and feathers, and this was done. e NO BAIL IS ALLOWED TO ALLEGED ANARCHISTS Isaak and the Men Arrested With Him Are Held by Chicago Police. CHICAGO, Sept. 1l.—Abraham Isaak and the eight men arrested with him as anarchists will be held until next Friday without bail. On that day at 11 o'clock Judge Chetlain, sitting in chancery in the Supreme Court; will hear arguments on a writ of habeas corpus presented him to- day by their attorneys, Leopold Saltiel and C. T. Brown. “When Attorney Brown learned of Judge Chetlain’s decision not to hear the habeas corpus cases of the local anarchists till Friday®he notified Miss Goldman that he had concluded to await the action of Magistrate Prindiville in the matter of bail before taking action in the upper court. ————————— Well, It’s Time To get 2 new clock when the old one no longer satisfies.

A microscopic count of the blood had been made during the day | by Dr. Wasdin. At the evening confer- ence the result wa$ submitted and found to be perfectly satisfactory. There had been no abnormal increase ,of white corpuscles such as would have existed had blood-poisoning set in, and the doc- tors had the satisfaction of announcing officially that the count of the blood cor- roborated the clinical evidence of the ab- sence of any blood-poisoning. The President was bathed and given nourishment while all the doctors were present and afterward was placed in his new bed. The members of the Cabinet were all below stairs while the consultation was in progress and remained until after the bul- letin was prepared and issued. They were so elated over the improvement in the President’s condition and the absence of any unfayorable symptoms that Secretary Root announced that he felt free to de- part and that he had decided to go to New York to-morrow. “Good News,” Cries Doctor. At the conclusion of the night confer- ence the doctors gave another extremely gratifying report of their patient’s prog- Tess. The physicians did not begin to leave the Milburn residence until shortly before 11 o’clock. The reports which they had to communicate could hardly have been more gratifying than they were. Dr. Wasdin and Dr. Mynter came out together. The latter was hemmed in on all sides by the eager newspaper men. ““Good news! Good news!” he cried. “Nothing but good news. We have washed and fed the President and moved him to another bed.” “Is he still improving?”’ “He is, and to prove it 1 desire to that a count of his blood shows that it i in a normal condition, and we feel that we car announce definitely that there is not the least indication of blood-poison- v s ng.” ge referred the reporters to Dr. Wasdin of the Marine Hospital Service, who was standing at his side, for a scientific in- terpretation. The latter explained that a count of the blood was a microscopic ex- amination of the relative number of white and red corpuscles in the blood to deter- mine whether inflammation of any sort existed. An increase of white corpuscles, relatively speaking, would show inflam- mation and deterioration of the blood that might indicate peritonitis. Count of the Blocd. He said that this morning a few drops of blood were taken from“the lobe of the ear and microscopically counted under his direction. “We found,” he said, “that the number of white corpuscles was just about nor- mal, while the red cells were slightly be- low normal, due to insufficient nutrition since the operation.” “The count was not made, continued Dr. Wasdin, “to verify the fact that blood poisoning did not exist, of which we felt certain, but to remove every shadow of doubt. The- result is that we feel safe in announcing that not a_trace of blood poisoning exists. The test could not have been more satisfactory.” “Is the President out of danger?” “No, I would not say that; he is a very sick man, but his condition under the cir- cumstances could not be better. That much I will say emphatically.” “Was any trace of pus found in the ex- terior wound?” “Not a particle. Pus means the exist- ence of an abscess, and there is not the iufigesuon of pus about the President's "The bulletin which followed Dr. Was- din’s statement officially confirmed what he bad said. Confirmed by McBurney. Dr. McBurney remained in the house awkile longer than the other physicians, leaving shortly after 11 o'clock. He con- firmed the statement made in the bulletin to the effect that the examination of the President’s blood showed no evidence of blood poisoning, mnor did it, he added, show any sign of peritonitis. While the cxamination of the blood was not made to determine the latter fact, yet it would unmistakably have shown it had there been peritonitis. The examination was simply a way of {f]s“é‘g the conditions of the President's ocd. The doctor will remain overnight and attend the consultation of the physicians to-morrow. The time of his departure has not been determined. Dr. Mapn, who has attended every con- | sultation of the physicians, was not pres- ent to-night, feeling that his attendance Wwas unnecessary. Dr. Park also expressed his satisfaction at the condition shown by the President and at the manner in which his system was responding to treatment. All the members of the Cabinet now in the city, including Secretaries Root, Wilson, Hitch- cock and Postmaster General Smith, were again at the Milburn mansion to-night, and remained until after the consultation of the physicians was concluded. They are highly elated over the favorable de- velopments in the President's case, and Secretary Root is so sanguine of the fu- ture that he has determined to leave the city to-morrow. He will take the 1 o'cleck train for New York, EDMUND WOLCZYSKI GIVES HIMSELF UP Surrenders to the Police, but They Find No Cause to Connect Him With Crime. CHICAGO, Sept. 11.—Edmund Wolczy- ski, frightened at a newspaper story which connected his name with that of Leon Czolgosz, to-day gave himself up to the local authorities. He said he had known Czolgosz in Cleveland; that he "knew members of the latter's family. He was recently in Buffalo, but left there for Chicago before the attack on the Presi- dent was made. Chief O'Neill had an hour's interview.| with him thig afternoon and at its con- clusion announced that there seemed to be no reason for holding the voluntary prisoner. -ANARCHISTS MAY GET THEIR LIBERTY Chicago Police ina 'Quandnry on Ac- count of Lack of Evi- dence. CHICAGO, Sept. 11.—The Chicago police to-night have sent urgent messages to the authorities at Buffalo, asking them to take action which will enable the police here to hold the anarchists now in cus- tody. Demand after demand has been made that either proof of complicity In the attempted assassination of the Presi- dent or requisition papers be forwarded. The Chicago police say that they will not be able to hold the anarchists after Fri- day morning, unless the Buffalo authori- ties take some steps in the matter. The only answer to the requests of the local officlals has been that a letter with full particulars was on the way from Buf- { custody by _them on any charge whatever.

Captain Colletan made the same admis- sion and Mayor Harrison said: “It is pretty plain now that there was no plot formed in Chicago. If there was a conspiracy anywhere it was made the East.” The police made public what they said was a complete set of the telegrams which have passed between Chief Bull of Buffalo and Captain Colleran. They show at almost every point the same lack of proof and make it clear that the arrests were made here solely to have the per- sons of the anarchists in case evidence of any kind might later develop. OFFICIALS PUZZLED (ZVEE GOLDMAN CASE CHICAGO, Sept. 11.—While city officials are having their own troubles concerning the disposition of Emma Goldman and the probability of the Buffalo authorities be- ing able to take the woman off their hands within the next twenty-four hours, the Federal authorities in Chicago are also considerably worried about her. It is known that to-day a long cipher dispatch was received here, coming it is said direct from Attorney General Knox and giving an opinion concerning the right of the Government to hold her un- der the present Federal statutes which is the Teverse of satisfactory. It is believed that the Federal officers are not by any means certain that she can be kept in Captain Porter of the United States se- cret service has had two of his men con- stantly among her friends here since Tuesday night. He has collected a large number of her letters, written by her from various points since the beginning of the month. All of these seem to prove that her deposition made to the police, at least as far as regards her travels about the country, is correct.
