THE '"PITTSBUE&" DISPATCH' THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 7, '1889? $ I- If f 1 LURID CIRCULAR. The Anarchists' Agitation Committee Sends Out a Call to Arms. WAS IT ORIGINATED IN THE CITI ? f Enthusiasm Badly Wanted for the Pittsburg Demonstration. "EDITOS WILHELM DEXOOXCES THEM Decidedly Incendiary Utterances In Their Bill of Particulars. Pittsbure Anarchists, though few and far between, are no slower than their Western brethren of bloody language. They haTe just issued an incendiary circular. Its points and purposes are fully set forth. In connection with the item published in The Dispatch a few days ago to the effect that the Anarchists of Western Pennsyl vania were being aroused by Herr Pricke, of Allegheny, and they would hold a demon stration in this city on Saturday next, a cir cular was issued to the followers of Fricke yesterday. It is a pamphlet of 17 pages, Printed in German, and the outside front page is decked with a heavy black border. A copy of it fell into the hands of a Dis patch reporter, who had it translated by a well-known German scholar. The latter stated that many oi the phrases used had a hidden meaning. It was difficult to express in English some sentences the circular con tained, but the following is an almost per fect translatiop: TO THE WOEKING PEOPLE. A man or beast? That Is tbe question which will have to be decided on 11th of November. Two years ago a enmo was committed the like of which is not contained in the annals of the world. On the 11th of November, 1RS7, five men were slaughtered iu cold blood without there being tbe least evidence that thev bad transgressed any one of those blood-thirsty laws Twth which the society of to-day justifies Its judicial crimes. On tbe 4th of March. 1SS6, an unknown man attacked, in defense of himself and many others, by throwing a bomb, as the 00 mur derers (police) were in the act of massatreing hundreds of peaceable citizens among whom there were numerous women and children with tiger-like blood-thirstiness, and in pav of the insatiable capitalistic robbers of Chicago This deed, which ercn in the eyes of tbe law is unimpeachable, was not to be avenged on bim who threw the bomb, because, as we said be fore, be was unknown. He was and remained unknown. Ko! This deed was intended to be a pretext to annihilate the best, most intelli gent, courageous counsellors of the working people of Chicago. The attempts to convict onr brothers, Linpg, Fischer, Kngel, Parsons, Schwab, Fieldcn and Neebs of conspiring to marder policemen "were not at all successful. All the lies and menaces of the capitalistic press, the false oaths of hirelings, all the machinations origin ated by the shameless vermin of bribed officials to place tbe pioneers of liberty in tbe light of murderers was in vain. In spite of all this, said Grinnell, "You must die. Not because you are murderers, but be cause you preached anarchism." SOME EABID UTTERANCES. "You must die!" said Geary, while the croco dile tears ran down his cbeecks, for you have sinned against our highest God, against Jeho vah Mammon." "You must die!" exclaimed the 12 jury brigands as in their bands they felt tin gold of the plutocracy, "because yi bae outraged the sacredness of property. "You must dief thundered the preachers from their pulpits, "because you have transgressed tbe commandment wh.ch says. 'You shall not eat of tbe tree of knowledge.' " "You mnst dief exclaimed the priests of tbe golden calf, of tbe money exchanges, "because it is your work tnat the people cries for bread and liberty." "You must die!" howled the pub ic after it had been stripped of the power of bealtby thought by corrupt demagogues like Fowderly and George. Ihe rage and fury was general. Tbe class tranny united with the ignorance of the masses to let the barbaric deeds fallow tbe foul design. The gallows were erected, and on No vember 11, 18ST, four friends of the people Spies, Parsons, Fischer and Engel were strangled in tbe name and the indifferent presence of tbe people. The fifth, thejoung and highly heroic Curtms of modern times, Louis Lingg. whose memory shall ever live. was already drin into death on the proceeding day. TnU quintuple murder was not only in tended to exterminate the exponents of An archism and social revolution, but at tbe same time give warning to others who thought and felt similar to them. APPEALING TO WORKMEN. But, above all, it was intended to terrify labor. Now we ask what have the workingmen done to save their counselors, their leaders ana their best friends? As good as noth ing! Courage was required and they collected a fund. A courageous deed could have prevented the November crime, the workingmen offered resolutions. Oh! if only those wbo thus demonstrated had appeared in numbers on tbe scene, as the benousnesg of tbe situation required' Unhap pily, those who did move in the matter ere onlr their most intimate friends. The Anarch ists and other Socialists, as it was known later in. those who sympathized were men without serious intentions, who w ere satisfied to shed a tear or utter a curse. Tbe rest were and re mained listless, or even joined in the wild crv of the law and order beasts, "Crucify them " Tbe species of man has suffered an irreparable injury; tbe beast has gained a victory which would make a Moloch jealous. Two years have now passed since that horri ble deed of the hangman of Chicago. The in sane madness of the bloodv munsters has more and more abated. Considerable literature, for the most part from the pens of our strangled heroes, has fonnd its way through tbe land; yes, through all lands, and made clear the principles of the martyrs of the workingman, and why thev were murdered. In hundreds of thousands of different places all over where man meets man bas this tragedy been talked about a hundred ti jies. No one can assert that he has not had occasion to find out how tbe situation stands. The official murder of Chi cago is generally known as such. Whoever now sanctions it has no right to the title of man; he numbers among the beasts. A CALL TO ARMS. Now then, every one will soon bave occasion to show what he is and what he Intends to be. On the 11th of November, this year, the revo lutionists of all lands, of all countries will con vene to do honor to the memory of the butch ered heroes and to impeach the murderers and tneir followers, to take anew the oath to fulfill the legacy of the fallen heroes that is to do battle unceasingly until tbe robber system of tondav, which is held up by foul murder and outrageous acts, of all kinds, is exterminated and the liberty and equality of tbe people on earth is established. Who ever feels and thinks like a human being fol lows tbe reveille of the disciples of those who were hanged. Whoever suffers un derthe present robber system, whoever has come to tbe conclusion that an injustice is done bim, whoever wishes that this world should be made better, must also know now that the men who suffered death in Chicago have died because they thought and felt like you think; that is, that they have given their lives for von. Will you bonor them, snd with it yourself ? Then you must be there in great numbers when it is time to show the enemy of mankind that their crimes are not forgotten and that their murders have not bad the effect of exterminating tt.e craving of the trodden people for liberty. In the position which the workingman must take in this respect he must lay aside all personal considerations, no matter whether his thoughts have soared to tbe height these fallen heroes attained, to work like them with hot, fervent enthusi asm for communism and anarchism; whether or not he knows that the emancipation ot work ing men tbrougb tbe ballot box isDosibli; whether or not be is of the opinion, as a Knight of Labor, he can reach tbe goal, or If he jet moves In the narrow circles of trades' unions, be must know above all that he is a part of tbe fighting corps which is in tbe field against cap ital; a part of that corps with which tbe fallen heroes who were murdered in Chicago wre closely united. "Man or beast?" that is thenucstion. A nOTL TOR BLOOD. Let every man and every woman show to which species he belongs. The countersign is given, tbe call bas been made. Working men, act as it behooves you. Revolutionists, let a call go to all working men who are not at pres ent in the tow of corrupt demagogues, and therefore capable to separate- their interests from the robbers. Call them up tbe poor and miserable from a horrible fate, whom a horri ble fate has left sufficient power of thought to tell the difference between rlcht and wrong, between tyranny and liberty. The circular was signed bv the Agitation Committee of the International Working men'a Association. There is one member of the committee in this city. He came here from New York gome months ago and has been quietly working ever since. He ia the prime mover in the celebration to be held in Lafayette Hall. Carl Wilhelm, editor and publisher of the PitUburger Sonntagsblatt und Die Re form, was seen upon the streets last night and shown the circular. He said: "That circular was written and set up in a German paper office of this city. I can recog nize their private mark on it and the editor of the paper is a member of the main committee of the Anarchists. I hare de nounced him time and again for his edi torials on anarchy. The majority of the stockholders are opposed to the paper being run on the anarchistic plan, and for the past few weeks the editor has not been so rabid. The respectable German element of the city are opposed to the Anarchists and will have nothing to do with them. I hope that any attempt to hold a demonstration in this city on Saturday next will be promptly stopped by the police authorities." irniGurs cliim case. Haatinc Sat Down on a Scheme to Hire Cattle Garden Immigrants The Fact In the Hoard's Bands. The McKnight suit against the State for payment of work done at Johnstown was brought to a close yesterday. The con cluding testimony was taken, the arguments on both sides were made, and the case left for settlement in the hands of the Board of Arbitrators. Mr. O'Brien, a former witness and State time keeper, was recalled, and testified that he had been foreman of from 12 to 15 time keepers. That the State kept no time record on June 14 and 15. General D. P. Hastings was sworn, and testified that he represented the State work at Johnstown, and was under the orders of Governor Beaver. He had charge of the military and of the distribntion of food, clothing, etc. The uniformed officers of the National Guard, received pay for their ser vices. "Exhibit 50," being a communica tion from tbe Governor to GeneraliHastings, containing instructions, was placed in evi dence. The witness testified to having in terviews with Governor Beaver, and receiv ing instructions to do all that was necessary lor relief of the sufferers and place the re sponsibility on the State. General Hastings said: "I relied almost entirely on James McKnight for many supplies and work. The valley I divided iu four districts, and had four contractors. Mr. McDon ald, contractor of tbe Baltimore and Ohio railroad came to me and stated that he was to have complete charge of the contracting work having received his au thority from the Governor He had no men, but said he would get them trom Castle Garden. I told him that he could have charge of nothingand as for men, there were enough in Pennsylvania to do the work. I looked to Mr. McKnight to supply all machinery for boisting and placed him in charge ot200 log floaters. I do not think he was ordered to make ont a detailed statement ot all the work done by him or material used. Nearly all requisitions were made on bim and the distinction to be kept between State and relief work was too difficult in the great emergency." On cross-examination General Hastings stated that at first all drafts drawn on the Goveruer did not specify whether the pay ment was for State or relief work but this was afterward changed and the specifics-J nous uau iu ue uiaue. Henry Brush, a State timekeeper, testi fied that he did not remember having been sent by Mr. Whittaker to hunt up 14 gangs of men, no records of which were on the timebook. The arguments in the case were next made. Charles S. McKee, attorney for the plaintiff, argued that the State was duly bound to pay Mr. McKnight in full. At torney General Kirkpatrick claimed that tne State was responsible only for the State and not tor the relief work; that the time records of the State timekeepers did not correspond with that of McKnight's, and that, as the contract clearly held Mc Knight to abide by the statement of the State timekeepers, Mr. McKnight could not hold the State responsible. The matter was here given to the board, and will probably be decided in a week or two. SFE1XG TALLET MINERS Ulakc a Concession to the Operators Set tlement I Pending. The conditions of affairs between W. L. Scott and his Spring Valley miners are un changed. Tbe offer of the owners of 70 cents summer prices and 75 winter has not been improved upon; and on the other hand, the miners have made a concession of 5 cents under last year's rates, which, it will be remembered, were 85 and 90, and have agreed to accept 80 cents for summer work and 85 for winter. It was reported in the city yesterday that Mr. Scott had in duced some 15 non-union miners of Scott haven to go on to Spring Valley, and had arranged with ten others to take the place of the miners on strike. It was said on very good authority that should these men at tempt to turn in, that a conflict with the strikers would ensue, resulting likely in a serious disturbance. About 5,300 people in the region are still dependent on outside aid for support, and their condition of late is reported as being improved. F0DNDEES STILL TIELDING. Two Other Firms feigned Yesterday The Best Will Follow Salt. Jones & Laughlins and the Keystone Bridge Company signed the molders de mand for a 10 per cent increase yesterday. Pifty-four molders are employed by the former firm, and some 10 or 12 by the latter. Another prominent Southsiae firm is ex pected to sign to-day The remaining firms which are still holding out, will probably have their men back again in a day or two, and so will have ended a tussle between cap ital and labor by which the latter profits by about 1,000 per week in increased wages, simplitymg in a marked manner the grow ing power of organized labor in this country. A NEW SHEET MILL Dloorbead, DlcCleane & Co. Improving Tbclr Plant at So ho. Moorhead, McCleane & Co. yesterday began the first work on the erection of a new steel mill in connection with their plant at Soho. The im provement will cost about $15,000, and a considerable additional number of men will be given employment The output of the new mill will be about 15 tons of light sheet iron per day. The mill will be in op eration in about two months. A EIG KAILR0AD STRIKE. All the Slacker (System Freight Crews at EransTille Go Ont. rSPICIAL TTXEGUAM TO THE DISPATCH.) Evansville, Ind., November 6. An other strike is in progress in this city, and extends over the entire Mackey system. The strike was inaugurated by the freight conductors and brakemen, who asked for an advance in wages. The advance asked for was allowed, but the time of its going into effect caused the trouble. The strikers insisted on it dating back from November 1, while the railroad company declared that it would not agree to anything of the kind. This was yesterday afternoon, and the strike was declared to-night. No freight trains have moved to-day. The following notice was posted at the depot this morning: All trainmen not reporting for duty by 1 o'clock P. M., November 6, 1SS9, are hereby dis charged and will be considered as trespassers and treated accordingly. D. J. Mackey. President ana General Manager. None of the men reported for work. The engineers this afternoon joined in the strike, and it promises to be one of the biggest af fairs of the kind iu the history of the State. Angostura Bitters are the most effica cious stimulant to excite the appetite.

ELIJAH ON HEN KICKING THEMSELVES, And Clarkson On the Great and Growing Thirst of the Elate of Iowa. All the Bepublican appointees in Wash ington are saying of the landslides: "We told you so." Some of them say it entertain ingly. President Harrison tells a visitor to the White House he can explain it all as quite an expected outcome, and as not im plicating his own policy in the least. Lije thinks so, too, and Clarkson moralizes on Iowa's thirst for booze. (FltOU A STAFF COKBISPOITOE'lT.l Washington, November 6. The defeat of Poraker in Ohio, and the close vote and possible defeat of the Republicans in Iowa, came something after the fashion of a thun der clap from a clear sty to the Republicans in the Government service to-day. Little interest was manifested last evening, because nearly everybody took it for granted that Mahone would be snowed under and that New York and New Jersey would go Dem ocratic, and that Ohio and Iowa would be Bepublican. So it looked up to midnight, and everybody went home feeling they knew just how things stood, and not until this morning did the mass dream of the Water loo that was in store for the grand old party. Oreat was the discussion in the depart ments to-day in regard to the result. Groups of Eepublicans and groups of Democrats could be found in the rooms and about the corridors of the Government buildings at all hours of the day, and the sincerestand prob ably the correctest opinions heard anywhere were from the bright people who make up the world of the civil service. THE TANTALIZING OPPOSITION. The Democrats made no attempt to conceal their joy. They were bold and tantalizing. Tbe burden of their congratulations was that the people had already repudiated the Re publican administration, and that in 1892 a sure-enough Democrat would be elected, who would make every Bepublican in the civil service walk the plank. Bepublican clerks and officials were in tensely stirred by the offensive conduct of the Democrats, and prayed harder than ever for a change of heart in the administration which would embolden the President and his Cabinet to root out of the civil service the last one of the ex-rebels and heelers and hangers-on of the Democratic party who fill the departments. "A party with snch leadershiD is sure to get worsted," said one of the cleverest clerks of the Treasury Department to The Dis patch correspondent this afternoon. "Why a lot of the best positions in this department are yet filled with Democrats, and the bit terest of their kind. Only a few Bepubli can chiefs of divisions have been appointed. The unclassified service is Democratic all round. WHAT A CONTRAST. "Before this time fouryears ago every chief of division in this department, who was re moved at all, had been fired out. "But that is not the worst of it The lead ers, while relusing to take any steps to secure an honest vote in the South, which wonld give several Southern States to the party, dabble in all sorts of side issues. They flirt with the whisky men here and the temperance fanatics there, and don't seem to know more than a child what to take hold of and what to avoid. I don't take much stock in Mahone; but the Bepublican party in Virginia would be in the majority any day if the Federal Government would put a stop to the whole sale suppression of the negro vote, and sev eral other Southern States would be added to the Bepublican column. If the party wants to hold the reins of government it must leave all so-called moral issues and take its stand on a tariff for protection, the abolition of internal revenue taxation, ex tension of foreign commerce, a sound mone tary policy, and grasp by the throat the recreant South, which now suppresses the rights of freemen more outrageously eveu than when those freemen were slaves. HIS EIP VAN WTNHXEISM. "I hope the President will be waked from his lethargy by the terrible blow the party received yesterday, and act as though he were a leader, and not merely a lounger, at 550,000 a year, to meander through the green fields and pleasant valleys and beside the still waters, or a lord of empire too great and exclusive to come down to practical politics, or to lool with any principle except that of domestic tranquility and Little Lord Faun tleroydom. The President has appeared to me to be in a trance ever since the 4th of March. He is a political somnambulist, and, like his kind, he'may wake to find himself toppling on the outer edge of an abyss." The President had few callers to-day, but was averse to saying anything for the public on the subject of the elections. Cabinet and other officials either would not talk or pre tended to be too busy. To one of his visitors, however, President Harrison expressed him self more freely, and that visitor tells The Dispatch correspondent that the President does not admit for a moment that the Be publican failures were induced in the laintest degree by dissatisfaction with the administration. WHAT HAEEISON SAYS. "The disease was local," the President said, sententiously, to his friend. "In New York the Democratic machine was sure to win in a state campaign and an off year. In Virginia it was a suppressed vote and fac tional antagonism against General Mahone. In Ohio it was factional antagonism and op position from the beer nnd liquor element, and in Iowa it was granger influence, and, to a small extent, factional differences. In all the States it was off-year indifference and a disposition to seize the opportunity to fight domestic quarrels to a finish. "Oh, no, it was not 'an unsatisfactory ad ministration.' We are too nearly in our in fancy as yet to be subjected to such drastic criticism." MAT BENEFIT THE PARTY. Professional politicians among the Re publicans do not seem to be greatly alarmed by the outlook. They say the result will really strengthen tbe party, as without it there" would have been a continuous indif ference or overconfidence that might have extended its influence to other campaigns. Some are inclined to think, however, that Pennsylvania should take warning from Ohio, and heal factional differences before next year. As one Pennsylvaniau puts it, "It is a warning from another world to Quay and Magee to kiss and make up before the crack of doom." Lightnee. ELIJAH AND OLAEKSOff. Harrison's Secretory nnd Ills Chief Execu tioner In the 1. O. D. Say Ben's Not to Illame Iowa Sick of " Prohibition. Washington, November 6. Private Secretary Halford does not seem to have been at all disturbed by the general Demo cratic success. Said he, to-day: Those who exult over the results of yester day's elections have simply proved how entirely they forget tbe political history of the country. At least once in four years the people must find a vent for their personal prejudices against cer tain candidates, and they generally select an off year In which to do it. During a Presidental election there are sins of omission and commis sion, and, when party principles are not at stake, tbe voters consult only their own feel ings; they co out into the back lot, as it were, and kick themselves for what they bave done In the past. Tbe elections aro not evidences of additional Democratic strength; on the contrary, the Democratic vote has been cut down consider ably in many important places, notably in New York. Many years ago in Chicago, when the saloon element elected a Mayor in that city, at the next municipal struggle we elected a Re publican to the mayoralty and his majority was about 11,000. ALL THAT IT PEOVED. That did not prove that there had been a great increase in tbe Republican ranks; it was simply a chance ot sentiment on a local ques tion. The principles of the Republican party were not at stake yesterday. A reporter this evening asked First As sistant Postmaster General Clarkson for au expression of his views concerning the re sults of yesterday's elections. Mr. Clarkson said: The invariable results of the year following a jrresiaentai election nave repeated inemseires this year. There are many surprises in the Republican defeats, but they come from local causes in every State, except Virginia, and there the result was gained by the usual methods of fraud, suppression and false count ing. A Democratic State Election Board, elected by a Democratic Legislature, appointed all tbe judges of elec tion, and the law clothes the election Judges with peace-court powers, and they can order any voter they please to jail for the day, and reign absolute in arbitrary power. The Republicans of Virginia did not bave the selection of a single judge of election in the whole State. With such machinery the Demo cratic majority might easily have been 100,000 instead ox su,uuj. xne ncg ro is aisirancoisea. In Virginia the black men gave uplthelr right to hold the offices, and now the Democrats d mand that they shall not exercise any cbolce even as between the white men who are to hold the offices. AN TJTTEE IMPOSSIBILITY. General Mahone and the Republicans made a gallant and splendid fight, and had an honest majority of the voters of the State with them on the tariff and State debt questions; but nothing can win against a complete and skill ful system of fraud. The attempt to couple the national administration conspicuously with this defeat is undeserved, as the President simply showed tbe same friendly interest in Mahone that he did in the Republican candi dates in other States. The causes operating in Ohio and Iowa were largely the same evidently and mainly a re action against radical temperance and Sunday legislation. The Sunday law, and the enforce ment of it, changed Hamilton county and its Germans against the Republican party, and Governor Foraker, despito bis splendid record and bis almost matchless popularity in the party and the nation, went down with it. In Iowa the main cause of the change is due to prohibition. Tbe State has been very close on State issues ever since prohibition was made a law. The Republicans elected their Governor four years ago bv only 1.600 plurality, and two years ago by 6,000 plurality. CITIES -WANT THEIE BEEK. The counties bordering on the Mississippi river, having large cities, such as Dubuque, Davenport and Burlington, all ot them with a European or foreign-born population holding a majority of the votes, are intensely anti-prohibition, and they have voted overwhelmingly against the Republican party, because it stood in that State for tbe law and its enforcement. There was also some Republican dissatisfac tion and alienation on account of tbe present Governor's extreme views on the railroad question and bis irritating enforcement of tbe railroad laws. But Iowa has been gradually losing its Republican majority for years; over 30,000 Republicans have left tbe State, going into the Dakota?, Kansas and the Southwest ern country, while the later immigration to tbe State has been largely Democratic This year's results are in tbe main simply increased evi dence of the indisposition of a majority of the American people to accept prohibition and too radical legislation on questions that are moral ana social rattier man political.

He found bis memory fast falling and he grew weaker and more feeble until he was obliged to give up all employment. Having read in the papers testimonials from patients cured by the physicians of the Polypathic Institute of dis eases similar to his, he besran treatment with them. He says: ''J take great pleasure in stating to the people of Pittsburg that I bave been entirely cured of the above disease, and in every way feel like a new man. "JAMES CLARK."

J 'JfiL IllfPlllv s3sr new ADVEirnsEMEjrrs KAUFMANNS' DAILY CARD "Lend thy serious hearing to what I shall unfold." -Shale TH - fen; . ru jL case a brief discussion of the merits of our popular Shoe de partment cannot but be very interesting to every reader. There are, as you well know, scores of Shoe dealers in this city all claiming to sell the best goods at the lowest prices all clamoring for your patronage. Be careful, how ever, to whom you give your trade. If you want good-fitting Shoes, go to a house that keeps a complete stock of all lengths and widths; if you want du rable Shoes, go to a house that bears the reputation of hand ling none but solid leather footwear; if you want to econo mize in purchasing, go to a house that, by reason of its buy ing in large quantities and for. cash only, can undersell the other dealers. If you want to buy your Shoes from such a house, then patronize us. What better argument can we advance in our favor than the large trade we have built up within the comparatively few years we have been in the Shoe business. OUR RECORD IS OUR REFERENCE We can point our finger at a shoe house in this city that has been in the business ten times as long as we have been, and yet we do a shoe trade four times larger than it THIS FACT SPEAKS VOLUMES. Would we, do you think, have advanced as rapidly in the Shoe world, if our goods and prices hadn't been right from the start? Not much! The whole matter, sfripped and boiled down, resolves itself into a few words: We always did and always will supply the people of Pittsburg and Allegheny with the best possible Shoes for the least possible money, and, doing business on this broad gauge principle, our future success is assured and our trade will con tinue to grow.
