Chicago, August 20.—There were nu
merous rumors afloat this morning about
the jury in the anarchist case, but
rest of all persons even indirectly connect
ed with tiie Haymarkct tragedy for con
spiracy, and that in thi knowledge many
of the active leaders, hearing the outcome
of the verdict, are preparing to leave t lie
city.
i All the relatives and personal friends of
J the condemned anarchists immediately
left the court room shortly after the
swooning of Mrs. Schwab. Mrs. PniSo..s
and her female companion, after leaving
the court room, returned and seated them
selves by General W. H. Parsons, of Texas,
brother of one of the condemned. The
trio discussed the outcome among them
selves.

the criminal court room. About this
building were a large number of police to
prevent attempts to break in upon the
privacy of the jury. In front of the main
entrance to the court house were thirty
police and three lines of court bailiffs had
to be encountered before any one
could approach the court room.
At 9 o’clock there were twenty police in
uniform in the court room and several
press representatives. The court oflieinls
decided that the relatives of the prisoners
should be allowed in the court room and

Macon, Ca., August 20.—The largest
meeting held in Macon in a quarter of n

consider the propriety of forming a.com-

public affairs of the city and county,.civil

sided. The meeting lasted only a few
minutes.
Major J. P. Hanson, of the Bibb Manu
facturing Company, who had taken a
loading part in getting up the meeting,
made an address. He said that in consul
tation with a number of personal friends,
who were also leading business men of the
community, it had been decided wiser not
to organize a committee of one hundred
just at present on the very heat
of the recent excitement, but
to give tile public officers,civil and judicial,
an opportunity to reform the evils notori
ously complained of. While he did not
agree with the position taken, he yielded
in deference to the gentlemen and offered

other Indians on their way to the frontier,

The splendid work of the troops is

of them, and Wilder, with companies <1

dicating that the prisoners were not to be
surrounded hv their admirers. Shortly
afterward the mother of Spies, accompa
nied by a younger son, also entered the
court room and took a seat on the back
benches.
The jury left their hotel at 9:16 o’clock,
and under the guidance of ten bailifik. took
their way to the court house and were
conducted to another room immediately
adjoining the main court room.
At 9:20 Mrs. Parsons entered the court
room with her reticule, accompanied by a
woman who lias attended her throughout
the trial. She was given a seat between
two policemen, and with two policemen
immediately in her rear. Whether this
precaution was to guard against any extra
ordinary exploit in the court room or not
of course is not known, but the seat ac
corded the female anarchist was deemed
significant.
By 9:30 the crowd in the court room
numbered about one hundred, but was
still composed, with the exception of the
persons named, of police, court bailiffs and
press representatives. .Mrs. Black, wife of
the chief counsel for the prisoners, who
has been in court daily, proceeded to take,
her former seat near the prisoners, but was
requested to take a seat on the opposite
side of tiie court room. Mrs. Black re
marked to a newspaper reporter as she
moved her package oi newspapers: ‘‘Well,
they say it has all gone against our men.
They take it very well, though. They
seemed to expect it.”
The sheriff refused to allow any one to
see tiie prisoners and no one has been per
mitted to enter the jail since the case was
given to the jury. The tremendous inter
est taken in toe outcome of the trial and
the finding of tiie jury is illustrated by the

Parsons, who had given himself up for
trial, looked disconcerted and broken
down, but joined at intervals in questions
directed at the attorneys.

during the trial, having an almost abso

covered himself and smoked a cigar as lie

Air. Seigler, of counsel lor the defense,
said that lie believed the verdict was

on trial. He thought tiie verdict was a
great surprise to State Attorney Grinnell
himself.
People stood In groups on all the streets
leading to the court room and eagerly pur
chased the various editions of the papers
which followed each other rapidly.
During the reading of the verdict the
prisoners were completely hidden from

cordon of police completely surrounding

The prisoners were brought into the

at the northeast corner of the court- rooifi
on some side benches.
The court was called to order at 9:54.
The prisoners were not observable to the

New York,August 20— 1 The stock market
to-day may be said to have fully recovered
front the uncertain temper of the past few
days, and it made further progress in the
direction of higher prices. This result
was principally due to the improved feel

and considerable capital was made
out of the reports of probable
developments upon the return of Vander

WASHiXfiTON, August 20.—There is a
well authenticated rumor that negotiations
are going on between the officers of the
Pan-Electric and Beil telephone com
panies for a consolidation. The matter is
not yet verified, though a meeting of the
officers and directors of the two com
panies was h<!d to-day, with that
object doubtless in view. Casey
Young, tlie most active in the Pari-
EJectric syndicate, declined to say any
thing upon the subject when the matter
was mentioned other than that it would be
sortie time before any developments would
be made known. ( me suspicious point in
this direction is an afternoon advertise
ment here soliciting the purchase of Pan-
Electric stock, which is supposed to mean,
if not a consolidation, some kind of an
agreement bctwei n the two companies.

tate, which was valued at £810,000, was
left to Edward Schenck, Martin Wood and
Alfred L. Simonson, as trustees and execu

York a place to be known as the Samuel
Wood Benevolent Institute, whore all of
his poor relatives could live. In case the
trustees failed to obtain a charter for the
institute during tlmir lives the trust was to
be given to the city of New York to estab
lish the institute. A codicil to the will
provided that in place of the benevolent
institute the Samuel Wood College of
Music was to be founded.
One*of the trustees named for tbe col
lege was Abraham Hewlett, a nephew of i
the testator, who contended that the pro
visions of the will were in violation of the
statutes, and consequently inoperative. ,
The matter was taki n to the courts to de- J
termine whether the trusleas named in
the will or those named in the codicil were !
legal. This was decided iu favor of those
mentioned in the will. Last month a suit !
was begun against Mr. Hewlett, to deter
mine whether the college or tbe institute,
if either, should be erected. The case was |
sent to a referee. He reported that both !
the provisions of the will and codicil were
void and inoperative and should be disre

reasons to be dissatisfied with the way in

of the Irish national creed. This will bear

The news which is conveyed in the

it. Grinnell awaited it openly. Presum
ably lie had his reasons for so doing.
