■ v¥" The Defense Begins the Introduction e, Its Testimony. Mayer Harrison Tuk.'* tho Mtau.l nml (ilvos sonu InliTPstlnv KvUleurc—A Traveling Sal™,,, Telia What lie San nml lloaml. 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.

About 250 dwellings have been erected in .he last three years and more now in course of erection. Welhave more dwell ing houses now than Apalachicola had in its palmy cotton days. To the average Georgian or resident ol the interior of any state it strikes them as strange that any place could prosper that is not backed by cotton or a farming ooun- try.

It is estimated that we received nearly $700,000 in merchandise at this port lor t he past year. The exports to foreign countries amounted to about $200,000. \v<- have seven saw mills and two planing mills at and near Apalachicola. We also have t wo oyster canning factories and one more tc> be erected in October. We also have a fine ice machine running all the time. As to our timber it.is the finest in the world and almost inexhaustible as to oca tity. East Pass has 181 feet of water and West Pass 13 feet. Several cargoes of salt were imported here last winter and more will be imported soon. We have the following large vessels now in port for cargoes, viz : Norwegian bark Birgette. Norwegian bark Hqiios. American bark Levanter. British bark M. J. Foley. American schooner Alice C. Dickerman. American schooner Hattie N. Gore. Also, quite a number of small vessels. Columbus should ship her cotton through this port and also receive her heavy merchandise the same way. It is rumored that a compress will be put up here and a line of steamers placed be tween New Orleans and Apalachicola. This will be an important step for Apa lachicola. SALAD FROM SEALE.

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. Mill-ini Pislitinils.

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 ports of it.

He heard some one order the crowd to disperse. Some one on the wagon said: “This is a peaceable meeting.” The bomb exploded within a second or two afterward. Witness did not hear any one exclaim, “here come the police blooahounds!” or any exclamation of that kind. He heard no pistol shots prior to the explosion of the bomb. >> it- ness said the bomb was thrown. The man who threw the bomb was standing behind some boxes near the sidewalk, about twenty feet south of the alley. Immeai- ately after the explosion of the bomb there waa pistol firing. The firing came from the police first. After the explosion wit ness joined the crowd at the foot of the stairway, and ran west on Randolph street.
