Chicago, Aug. 2.—The eflbrt to obtal
admittance to the court room where f ■
anarchists are on trial was greater to-du
than ever before, owing to the fact that t' e
defense was beginning the presentation o
its testimony and an intimation also that
Mayor Harrison was to go upon the stand
to explain why he had permitted assem
biages of anarchists. The number of fe
male friends and relatives of the eight in
dicted men present in the court room was
greater than on any previous day.
Mayor Harrison was called as the first
witness. He was examined by Captaii
Black. After stating in answer to ques
tions that he had been mayor for seven
years, he stated that he knew Spies ami
Parsons personally, the former only in
cidentally «« =">-* ■
cidentally. He said he was present at
Haymarket on the night of the tragedy
“t;’ Mie mgin, oi me tragedy
When asked why he was present at Hav
market, Harrison said:
“On Monday.May 3,|a riot occurred near
the reaper works. There were some win
dows broken and some shooting on that
day. My attention was called to the eir-
il'ir calling the meeting at Havmarkct, n.
„ 'nesting at Haymarket on
Tuesday night, which was framed in a
peculiar manner.” (Witness had reference
to the revenge circular.)
Mayor Harrison said he immediately
ailed his police captains together and
calle*
gave general instructions that
anything occurred at the meet
ing which would have a tendency
Sf renewing the scenes at McCormick^
that the crowd should be dispersed, lie
said that he went to the Haymarket in
person to give absolute orders, provided
he found the occasion warranted it. He
desired to give the orders in person, il'
necessary. He arrived shortly after the
speaking commenced. He heard only a
few of the remarks made by Spies. He
heard a portion of Parson’s speech. He
said he thought Spies noticed his presence
there. The mayor said that he thought
from the tenor of* Snioc’ cnmmK
from the tenor of Spies’ speech that it
was leading up to a point that
would compel him to interfere with the
meeting. When Spies appeared to notice
witness, Spies’ tone appeared t*> change
somewhat and his latter remarks seemed
lame. Witness said of Parsons’ speech
that the portion which he heard whs a
violent jiolitieai harangue against capital,
and while he was present, Mayor Harrison
■said, he heard nothing from Parsons which
seemed to call for his official intervention.
The portion of Spies’ speech which at
tracted iiis attention as incendiary was his
queries as to why the police had
been assembled; why the militia
had been called to their armories;
why gatling gun* had been spotted. He
•could not ren mb ■ the exact words.
When these quenies were applied and the
•deelaantion was made that they were in
tended to over-awe the workingmen there
were cries of “kill them!” “Hang them!”
The bitter cries appeared to come from
the immediate vicinity of the wagon. Har
rison did not estimate that more than 300
sympathizers with the speakers appeared
to be present. Harrison said that of the
•crowd which surrounded the speakers’
■stand a majority appeared to be Germans,
Bohemians and Poles. Probably a greater
number were Germans. Thespeaking,orall
that he heard, was in English. When wit
ness left the vicinity of the speakers’ stand
Parsons was still speaking. Proceeding
to Desplaines street'police station, he re
ed " — ' '
mained there about five minutes before
leaving for his home. When he started
to leave the scene there were signs of rain,
•and the crowd present did not seem to
him to exceed 500 persons.
Capt. Black asked witness what he said
to Inspector Bonfield when he was at the
police station.
The prosecution objected.
Capt. Black said he desired to show that
the movement of the police was in the
nature of a deliberate attack.
The state’s attorney withdrew the objec
tion.
Mayor Harrison said he told Inspector
Bonfield that he thought the speaking was
about to close; that he thought there
would be no trouble. He advised that he
should disperse the reserve forces of police
held at the various stations. The inspector
said he had already been so advised by his
own people, and hat} already given these
■orders. The inspector said that he had
heard rumors regarding another projected
•enterprise that night by riotous persons j
which would cause him to hold the Des- ]
plaines station squad In reserve.
The state’s attorney then asked what the
rumor was he had heard.
The mayor said Inspector Bonfield had
been advised that the meeting before it j

About 250 dwellings have been erected in

its palmy cotton days.
To the average Georgian or resident ol

As to our timber it.is the finest in the

East Pass has 181 feet of water and West

It is rumored that a compress will be put

Atlanta, August 2,—Sunday morning
11 o’clock J. P. Weaver was brought to
vtlanta from Chattanooga, where lie hm!
•ecu arrested by officers who have been
"iking for him for months past. His arrest
dll probably solve n mystery of nearly a
ear’s standing. The mystery is one of
tersonal identification. Last December a
tockdrover, J. W. Pierce, of Texas, was
filled in the memorable collision on the
Jeorgia Pacific railroad together with
leven others. Iiis remains were interred
n Atlanta, and have been • the subject of
itigation between Mrs. J. P. Weaver, ol
ndiana, and Mrs. J. W. Pierce, of Texas.
Mrs. Weaver declared that her husband,
i. Pierce Weaver, tiad left her and gone t >
"exns, where he liad lived under the name
fi J. W. Pierce. That it was lie who had
oeen killed in the collision and to her be-
onged iiis remains. The body was disin-
erred and identified both by ill's. Weaver
aid parties who had known him in Texas
>.V a scar on the back of the neck, widely
;eparated teeth and a peculiar formation
if his toes.
Mrs. Pierce and other witnesses on the
Texas side proved that the dead man laid
■ived in Texas all his life; had always been
I. W. Pierce and bad never been in In
diana. Though the remains were awarded
to Mrs. Pierce, of Texas, by the court, Mrs.
Weaver still maintained that she was
right and both ladies sued the road for the
loss of a husband. The peculiar circum
stances of the case attracted wide atten
tion and public opinion was divided as to
the justice of the claims. The arrest, of
one J. W. Pierce in Chattanooga, who ad
mits that he is the “J. P. Weaver,” of In
diana, who ran away to Texas, will pr. ibnb!y
cud the mystery. The singular feature in
Hie case is that tile dead mail should have
had the same peculiar marks cf widely
separated front teeth, over-lapping toes
and a scar on the back of the neck, all of
which are found on the man now under
arrest, who admits that he is the missing
Indianaian. He says he knew of I lie dis
puted identity of the dead man, hut lie had
left Indiana to get rid of iiis wife, and he
was only too glad when lie learned she be
lieved him dead.
Weaver was further identified to-day by
Dv. Wilson, who knew him in Indiana and
Indies who knew him while in Texas. His
wife lias been notified of Iiis presence
here and her arrival is awaited as the last
link in the chain of identification.

adjourned would attempt to burn the Mil
waukee and St. Paul depot. The inspector
had also been advised that this meeting
had been called to distract attention from
other quarters. When he left the police
station the inspector was given dis
cretionary powers as to the dispersal of
the meeting, or to quell any other dis
turbances. The mayor said he had made
up his mind to prevent a recurrence of the
scene at McCormick’s if it was in his power
to do so.
This closed the examination of the wit
ness.
Martin Simon, a traveling salesman, was
at the Haymarket meeting. During the j
afternoon lie was given a circular by some
one on West Lake street.
The circular was submitted by the prose- j
cution. It was a copy of the “Revenge”
circular, except that it had the heading
“ Attention. Workingmen,” instead of
“ Revenge,” and omitted the line “ work
ingmen, come armed and in full force,”
which appears in the “Revenge” circular.
Witness was present at the Haymarket
meeting about 7:30 o'clock. At the meet
ing he met Captain Warde, of the police,
who introduced him to Inspector Bonfield.
Near Desplaines street witness met Mayor
Harrison and introduced himself to the
mayor. From the police station witness
returned to the meeting, and mounting ail
iron stairway near the speakers’ wagon,
remained there during the meeting and
until after the explosion of the bomb.
Witness heard a portion of Spies’ speech
and all of Parsons’ and Fielden’s speeches.
His version of Spies’ speech did not
materially differ from the shorthand re
