Congregate.
Hew 5Tobk, July 6. The American So
cialist not the Anarchist has come to stay.
In New YorK he has already become a
formidable power. He incurred the dis
pleasure of the politicians of all parties ten
years ago, when he refused to take sides and
formed a little political organization of his
own. He has been repeatedly clubbed by
the police, arrested and sent to jail, de
nounced by the authorities and driven from
post to pillar by labor unions, and yet he is
stronger, more active and influential to-day
than ever before.
It is hardly necessary to state that he has
nn army oi enthusiasts and sympathizers
behind. The success of Bellamy's book,
''Looking Backward," shows at least halC
& million people are interested in social re
form and have a subdued fondness for the
first ideas laid down by Lassalle and Godin.
Bevond this there is a voluminous literature
in English, French, and especially German,
which is socialistic in character and teach
ing, and which has an ever-widening circu
lation among the reading classes.
PBACTICAL SYMPATHY.
An illustration of this sympathy is found
in tbe large amount of money nominally
subscribed, but really contributed, to every
socialistic enterprise started in the metropo
lis in the past eight years. Tne commercial
settlement at Topolobampo Bay, Mexico,
which, as was anticipated, turned out a pit
iable failure, involved the sinking of not
less than 525,000 borrowed capital. Much,
if not most of this amount, has come
from well-to-do people, who would regard it
as an insult to be called a Socialist, or even
to be accused ol socialistic leanings.
To see the New York Socialist at his best,
you should visit him at his club on Fourth
street, near Lafayette place. The neighbor
hood is a crowded one and lies just west of
the densely populated Eastside. The house
is an old-fashioned bnilding, which was
erected when people liked spacious rooms
and high ceilings, and long before the mod
ern flat came into vogue. An extension on
the rear of the lot increases its capacity and
enables it to accommodate a small army of
tenants.
The interior of the bouse is exquisitely
clean and neat, and the furniture and decor
ations are cheap, solid and serviceable. On
the niaiu floor is a meeting room, which will
seat about 300 people. The rest of the es
tablishment remains as it was when used for
dwelling purposes. Every room is rented I

council of a bakers' trade organization.
More than four organizations have offices in
the place and as each has Irom SO to 800
members the representative character of the
tenants is easily seen.
DAY AND SIGHT.
In the daytime the club is qniet, but the
house is busy as a bee hive. The manage
ment of strikes,!boycotts and lockouts, the
collection of fees and assessments, the pay
ing ont of benefit funds, the securing of em
ployment for the unemployed, tbe compro
XBifttbf personal and commercial quarrels
3n(ffBculties, the reception of visitors and
friends from out of town and foreign unions,
and the management of social events are but
a. small portion of the business done between
8 and 4 o'clock each day.
At night things are reversed. The offices
are deserted by their tenants, except where
overwork compels the burning of the noc
turnal oil and business dwindles to nothing,
while the club springs into activity and
life. The members drop in, sometimes
alone, but more often with their sweet
hearts, wives, sisters and cMldreu, and
spend the evening in the mild manner for
which the German is famous the world
over.
Beside the club there are scores of beer
gardens, where the Socialists center every
evening, and where they do an immense
amount of work in converting men and
women to their school of faith. The most
famous is Justus Schwab's, in Eirst street.
It is a narrow basement in a tall tenement
house. It is filled up in the ordinary Teu
tonic style with a wilderness of chairs and
tabljs. All sorts of beverages are dispensed
from a small bar, and on the table are a
dozen newspapers and periodicals. A feat
ure oi the place is a large bulletin board on
the wall in front of the bar. On it are writ
ten in chalk the latest Socialistic poems.
On this board appeared Swinburne's famous
lines as soon as they were printed. The
favorite bard, however, is William Morris,
whoof late seems to have become unusually
prolific of political doggerel.
A PICTTJEESQTJE CHAEACTEB.
Schwab himself is a very picturesque
character. He is a tall, athletic and hand
some blonde, who looks like one of the old
Norse Vikings. To a large culture he adds
a keen wit and humor as well as a strong
personal magnetism. He is remarkably
domestic in his habits and wherever found
is well-nigh certain to be accompanied by
his wife and some of his children. The for
mer, by the way, is a very pretty and clever
woman, who has contributed largely to his
success. Schwab has paid the penalty of
hisopinions, having been clubbed by the
police, arrested time and again, and on
several occasions assaulted by hoodlums of
the Eastside. His pluck was so great that
healways came out with living colors and
fained a sympathy that has paid him very
andsomely.
p. Before what his friends call his martyr
dom he had a small business and an equally
amall bank account. To-day his business is
Very large and his invested wealth cannot
be less than 540,000. Much of this has come
from the pockets of sight-seers from every
partot the world, who would never have
heard ot him but for the war waged by the
police and politicians. The sight-seers at
one time were quite a nuisance, averaging
20 a day and beuaving as if Schwab were a
wild man of the woods instead of a genial
man who rides a hobby.
More curious, although less famous than
Schwab's, is the "Castle," a gloomy and
forbidding place on .Fifth street, near the
East river. It is the headquarters of several
musical organizations and it is filled by
day and crowded bv night Its construc
tion is worthy of a Nihilist lodge in Russia.
The rear wall of the saloon is a solid mass of
heavy timber and steel braces, through
which a strong door, so small that only one
man can squeeze through it at a time, ad
mits into a dark corridor. From this a
second door like the first allows ingress into
the meeting room.
FALSE APPEAEANCES.
The entire place is redolent of suspicion,
fear and hostility. As a matter of fact the
proprietor, employes and patrons are just
the reverse. They are natty, clean-shaven
and amiable people, who laugh and sing
more tban 90 Americans out of a 100
They are Socialists by inheritance and from
education abroad They have built their
"castle" just as they would have built it in
those lands where all reform is treason and
pll attempts to better one's condition are
felonies.
As to leaders, the Socialists can give
points to all the political parties of Chris-
ndom all are leaders, and followers there
.pre none. They have an intens: individ
uality which does not brook the manage
Huentof a "machine." Despite this skir-
j salsa line or mob condition, a number of j
them tower up aboye tbe rest through In
tellectual, oratorio or executive ability. Of
this limited aristocracy there is not one but
could be made the subject ot an in
teresting study. Not alone the foreigners,
but also the "native-born, are the heroes of
actual dramas, which, though seldom or
ever published, wield a tremendous influ
ence for good or evil upon modern society.
Of the great Socialists of Xct York, prob
ably the most brilliant is J. K. Buchanan,
the writer and orator. He is a tall, slender,
but well-built man of about 40, with a clear
cut, pallid face, which in the time of the
Reformation would have been mistaken for
that of Calvin. He is an admirable writer,
and earns a handsome livelihood with his
pen. He is a still better speaker, and has
the rare knack tir genius of being able to
please an audience of day laborers as well
as one of scholars.
A MAN WITH A HISTOBY.
In Denver, years ago, be stopped the An
archists who proposed to remove by dyna
mite the millionaires of that famous silver
capital, and afterward in Chicago he was
the only Socialist leader who was not sus
pected by the police or the authorities. His
last great public work was the closing of the
Southwest strike, in which he succeeded in
placating both the corporations and the
strikers. Next to, Buchanan, the most in
tellectual of the Socialist leaders is Charles
Sotberan, tbe distinguished book expert
He is one of the best known men in New
York, having an acquaintanceship remark
able ior its variety. He came into prom
inence as an author in 1873, and late in
1876, when he, with Madame Blavatsky,
started the Theosophic Society. In 1877 he
was the first to expose that lady's jugglery.
From that time on he has kept himself be
fore the public as a cataloguist of vast abil
ity. He is an Englishman by birth and
shows his origin in a herculean frame,
blonde complexion and easy-going but
British manners.
Another curious character is Sergius She
vitch. Imagine a typical Presbyterian
theological student, smiling, cynical, cul
tured and well bred, a fine-looking but care
worn face, a long, wiry frame and a melodi
ous voice, and the man is before you.
Though brilliant he is unpopular to a high
degree. Tbe people who are similar to him
in tastes and tendencies reject him because
of his doctrines and beliefs. The people
whom he leads reject him because he is
an aristocrat No man has done more for
socialism in the United States than he,
and no one has received less gratitude in re
turn. A EEMABKABLE LEADER.
Most remarkable of all ' in this drama of
daily life is Dr. Gertrnde Kelly, who has
a large and lucrative practice as a physician
in Seventh street near the Bowery. She it
not over 25, is ideally beautiful, and is
probably the best read person of her age in
the metropolis. She never speaks in public
and seldom writes upon socialistic doctrines,
but devotes all her leisure time to reading,
work and study. She has a hundred fol
lowers, who always reverence her. She is
an extremist ;in her opinions, believing in
passive anarchism rather than socialism or
State socialism.
Mrs. Cynthia Leonard deserves mention
at this point She is best known to the
publio as the mother of that charming opera
star, Lillian Russell, but, possesses an indi
viduality which will be remembered when
tbe stage favorite is forgotten. Her entire
existence is civen up to social relorms, in
tbe. pursuit of which she does more work per
diem than the poorest paid car conductor.
She belongs to a dozen societies, including a
socialistic section, and never tires of writing
and speaking in support of her hobby.
J
Old mends and ioes of Mrs. .Leonard are
Mr and jj Richard J. Hinton.
Colonel
Hinton is an.iconoclast from the beginning.
He was a John Brown man before and a
fierce Unionist during the Rebellion. He
organized the first regiment of negro troops,
and led them to the seat ot war. Since then
he has been identified with every radical
movement During the Harrison-Cleveland
campaign there was a split in the Socialist
ranks, and Hinton led a very large number
into the Republican fold. It may have
been a reward or not, but the new adminis
tration expressed its appreciation of his
worth by giving him a snug office in Wash
ington, which he still holds. He is short,
stocky, long-haired and long-bearded, a
finished writer, a good speaker and a very
companionable man.
KEff FACE T2T THE BAKES.
A new face in the ranks is Moses Oppen
heimer, the editor of a small local paper. He
is a short, thick-set, gray-haired man, who
may be anywhere from 40 to 60 years of age.
He has been here since 1884. when it is said
the choice was offered him of emigrating or
going to a political prison. He thanked the
police and took the former. Then there is
Christian Growland, the author, who is tall,
black-eyed and mournful looking, and looks
partly like a poet and partly like a dyspep
tic. "He is very gentle and very popular.
By attacking Growland some years ago and
calling him "spy," "renegade," "sneak"
and otber happy Anarchist titles, Jobann
Most first aroused the great enmity to him
self which Has since stripped him of nearly
all his influence.
There is an army more Ernest Boehme,
Otto Boehme, Joseph Holler, Jacob Brain
tree, the 30 chief delegates of the Central
Labor Federations and tbe founders and
officers of the Brooklyn Labor Lyceum.
There are a few points worthy of being re
membered in regard to the Socialists. Sup
pression doesn't suppress, but strengthens
them. They are growing rapidly in New
York and every other large city.
Where they used to be exclusively for
eigners, the Socialists now include a great
many native Americans. Against every
odds, and without wealth, patronage and
influence, they have built up an organiza-

Service at a Domestic.
Cleveland, July 6. Miss May Wripht.
whose uncle, James Wright, is a wealthy
merchant at Jamestown, N. Y., ran away
from boarding school one week atro and
came to Cleveland in search of an advent
ure. To-day she returned home perfectly
satisfled. Miss Wright who is an heiress
to $50,000, is an orphan. She has, her uncle
says, been petted and spoiled. One week
ago last night she decided to see the world.
Taking a few articles of wearing apparel,
she quietly stole ont of the boarding school,
in which she had been placed by her guar
dian. Walking six miles to the nearest
railway station, she boarded the first train
for Cleveland, arriving here the next after
noon.
Applying at an employment acrener she
easily secured a place as domestic, and on
Snnday morning she, began work in a
kitchen. On Thursday afternoon Miss
Wright's uncle arrived in Cleveland, ac
companied by a detective from Jamestown.
The services of the police were enlisted, and 1
jb cvcuiuif tuey uiscuvereu we girl S
whereabouts. Mr. Wright called at the
house where his niece was employed, and
Miss Wright opened the door in response to
bis ring. The girl began to cry, hut her
uncle's forgiveness was quickly given. The
pretty runaway said she was already tired
of. the life of a kitchen girl, and on five
minutes' notice she quit her place and went
to the principal hotel in the city with her
uncle. Mr. Wright and his niece returned
to Jamestown to-day.
EOUIHG MEN GO OUT.
A Probably Long nnd Determined Strike
Begun nt Elmlrn.
Elmiba, N. Y., July 6. The men em
ployed in the Elmira rolling mills, 250 in
number, have gone Out on a strike, and a
long struggle between them and the com
pany seems imminent The men are all
members of the National Amalgamated As
sociation, and the strike is caused by the
company in refusing to recognize them as
union men and grant the advance demanded
by that organization.
The strike will be a disastrous one to El
mira, as the men all live here and thereby
contribute much to the prosperity of the

THE CAPTURE OF A MILLIONAIRE
Wlo Was Forced to Pay a Bound Eansom
to Secure His Eelease.
ORE BiKD CONFINED IN AN IEON GAGE
Rome, June 28. Those who fondly Im
agine that the Italian banditti belong to a
by-gone age, and that they no longer figure
anywhere but on the operatio and dramatic
stage, would speedily become convinced of
the fallacy of their views by a visit either to
the town of Frosinone, not two hours' ride
from here on the high road to Naples, or. if
they should prefer it, by a trip to the ancient
city of Termini in Sicily. At Frosinone
thev would see a gang of 33 bloooVthirsty
looking brigands, male and female, heavily
chained and confined like wild beasts in a
great iron cage constructed for their particu
lar benefit; while at Termini they would
have the pleasure of making the acquaint
ance of and listening to the tale of woe re
lated by Mr. Arrigo, one of the wealthiest
bankers and most exttnslve landowners of
Sicilv.
He" has just effected his release from a
captivity of 21 days in the mountains by
the payment of a ransom of 5100,000 in
cold cash to the brigands who had kid
napedihim. Termini is a town of 26,000
Inhabitants, about half an hour's distance
fwn HAla.mn willtil QfUMPnt RPJTOfirt
Signor Arrigo has entertained many United
States naval olhcers wben tneir snips toucnea
there. Four weeks ago. while spending an
afternoon in visiting one of his estates in the-
neighborhood, accompanied oy nis Damn,
he perceived a little squad of six carabineire,
or gendarmes, halt before tbe gate of the
villa where he was sitting.
' A CLEVEB STRATAGEM.
On entering they informed Signor Arrigo
that they wished to know if he had any
arms on the premises,and if so whether he had
obtained a license to use them. The banker
replied that he had left.bis license in Pal
ermo, whereupon the leader of the detach
ment immediately proceeded to confiscate
the Signor's revolvers and rifles, with the
professed 'object of holding them until he
had convinced himself by a personal in
spection of the document that the permit
had been duly granted. Having thus ob
tained possession of all the weapons in the
place, the gendarmes announced their in
tention of placing the banker and his bailiff
under arrest, and of taking them as prison
ers to Palermo in order to authenticate the
veracity .of their statements.
The two captives were accordingly bound
and blindfolded, and were taken in broad
daylight, not down toward the coast but up
into the San CologerL mountain, where for
the first time it dawned upon them that the
men dressed in the uniform of gendarmes or
police were members of the famous band of
brigands that had long inlested tbe district
The bailiff was soon set at liberty and sent
to Palermo for the purpose of informing the
partners and relatives of the banker as to
tbe amount of money required for his ran
som. Twenty-one days elapsed before the
negotiations on the subject of the latter was
completed, and during this time the captive
millionaire lived in a mountain cave, sleep
ing on a bundle of hay, and forced to con;
tent himself with a diet of black bread!
fruit and a cheap but very powerful Marsala
wine.
THE BANBOSI PAID OVER.
The ransom money has now been paid
over to the bandits in full and tbe banker re
stored to his anxious friends at Palermo. A
funny quid pro quo took place on the day of
his release. He had been turned adrift by
his captors at the foot of the mountain, and
had not gone far when he happened to meet
a patrol of three carabinein. So ragged,
unkempt and generally disreputable did he
appear to them that the worthy gendarmes
were convinced that he was one of the band
of banditti for whom they were hunting.
while he, on his side, taught by sad experi
ence, was equally confirmed in his belief
that the gendarmes were nothing but brig
ands in disguise.
It was not until the police station at the
gate of Palermo was reached that the cara
binieri became assured of his identity and
consented to cut the cords with which they
had seemed him. Owing to the prominence
and rank of Signor Arrigo, the Government
is displaying unusual energy in the pursuit
of the brigands, who for many years past
have infested the picturesque country
around about Palermo, and although none
of the actual captors of M. Arrigo has yet
been caught several persons, including a
lawyer and a priest, have been arrested on
the suspicion of being affiliated with the
gang. -
A DESPEEATE DEED.
With regard to the 33 brigands confined
in theiron cage at Frosinone, there are no
less than 470 separate charges against them,
mostof them for murder, burglary and
highway robbery. They are all natives and
inhabitants of Artena, a mountain town not
an hour's ride from here, which has, since
thri sixteenth century, possessed tbe most
evil reputation of any place in the penin
sula. Indeed, tbe Papal records show that
f n the year 1557 its walls and houses were
lAaxed to the ground and salt strewn on the
I n.nB T.v .-H(.r nf Pftn Pn ill I V tuliA rla.
clared that Artena was a hotbed of crime
and tbe most accursed spot in hfs domin
ions. That the Artenians of the present
day are in nowise inferior in power of vil
lany and infamy to their ancestors is abun
dantly proved by the fact that the last three
Mavors of the town have fallen beneath the
stilleto of assassins.
Almost the entire population of the
place are more or less directly, engaged in
brigandage, and the chief of the band, who
is included among the prisoners in the cage
at Frosinone, is one of the wealthiest and
imost respected municipal councillors of
iArtcna. His, name is Pasquale Villani,
is fortune amassed by nignway roooery
onnts to 830.000. and his fame as a bri-
gintt dales bacK to tne days wnen .rius j-a.
still exercised temporal sway over iiome.
Foy Pasquale, though still hale and hearty
ana ready as ever for any deed of villany,
is old and gray-headed, and stands on record
as Having during the course of his lopg
carear committed 42 murders, 62 robberies

Wilkesbaebe, PA., July 6. John
Moody, colored, was drowned in the Sus

save a child who had fallen into the water.
Moody had taken two white children
belonging to a neighbor for a walk
along the river bank. A short
distance above the Kingston bridge he placed
the little ones in a boat, which was moored
to the shore by a long chain, and began
swinging the boat around for the amusement
of the children. The little on the stern who

A Mess in Clothing. .
At this time of the year
manufacturers try to push off
goods that particular stores
wouldn't take. They get the
best prices they can, and let'
goods go. They tempt stores
to buy them for a price.
It makes a mess of selling
clothing. It's expected peo
ple will buy solely because the
prices sound small. They
injure buyer and seller. k.
We have our own make
only. Always a solid and
well-known value in that W
don't have time nor desire to
help clothing we don't know
to get sold. Our own we'll
guarantee: for high quality
low price.
Broken lots and lower prices
through July.
A full line of Thin Goods:
attractive prices.
Merchant tailoring: best
facilities: 2,000 styles of goods.
