during last winter's strike riots.
Further trouble is feared by the police
tomorrow when the order for a general
strike of. twenty-four hours, which has
been called by the Industrial, Workers of
the World, goes into effect. It is intended
to protest ajralnst the imprisonment of
Joseph J. Ettor, Arturo Glovanltti, In

- who were killed during the strike riots
. . last January. After the visitors had de
trained an impromptu parade was started,
turning finally into Essex street the
main business thoroughfare of the city.
The parade was informal and no appli
cation had been made for a parade per
mit. The police, notified that the opera
tives were marching, attempted to end
the demonstration. A squad of twenty
v five officers was sent to Essex and Law
rence streets, where they threw a line
across Essex street and awaited the ar
rival of the procession.
Two large banners were carried by
the marchers. One was inscribed "The
only justice freedom for Ettor and Glo
vannittl." The other bore the words:
"Police and militia," and below, "Who
killed Anna and John?"

When the head of the parade reached

marchers that they must disperse be
cause they had no permit Those In the
front rank were endeavoring to fall
back when suddenly the marchers in the
rear pressed forward and the mill work
ers tried to pass the police.
They struck right and left at the of
ficers, who responded by swinging their
clubs. Many paraders were knocked
bleeding to the ground. In some In
stances the marchers robbed the officers
of their clubs and -jgan to beat the po
,' lice. The latter were forced to retrat
into Lawrence street. It was here that
Tresca was seized by officers, who
started him toward the police station

Angered by the arrest of their leaders,
the crowd made a rush for the officers.
. The police appeared to be fighting to
hold the prisoners, but a moment or two
,"v later. Tresca was at liberty.

Appeal to Bryan
To Start Campaign
To Trim Mr. Murphy
STRACUSE, N. T., -Sept a.-Wllllanl
J. Bryan may ba appealed to by the
opponents of Charles F. Murphy, leader
of Tammany hall, to lead the fight
against the renomlnatlon . of Governor
John A, Dix at the democratic state con
vention which meets Tuesday. Some of
the anti-Murphy leaders who reached
here tonight held a conference at which
this proposition was. discussed. , It was
said that with Mr. Bryan on the ground
a general campaign would be started not
only to defeat Governor Dix for renom
lnatlon, but to overthrow the leadership
of Mr. Murphy In this state. The anti
Murphy leaders were not at all certain,
however, that Mr. Bryan could be pre
vailed upon to take part in a state fight.
Those opposing Mr. Murphy were keenly
interested in the announcement made in
New York last night by Senator O'Gor
man that the name of Justico Victor J.
Dowllng of the supreme court would be
placed in nomination by friends of Gov
ernor Woodrow Wilson, who are under
stood to look with disfavor on the renom
ination of Governor Dlx. The governor's
friends declared tonight that they were
as confident as ever that he would head
the ticket
On his arrival here tonight from New
York, Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tam
many hall, made it clear that he still
believed the convention should renominate
Governor Dlx.
That Mr. Murphy and his friends control
the majority of delegates is conceded
without exceptioa Out of 420 delegates,
the opponents of Mr. Murphy tonight
claimed only to have fifty or possibly
sixty votes.
SEAGIRT, N. J.. Sspt 29,-Governor
Wilson issued a statement tonight call
ing on delegates at the New York state
convention at Syracuse next Tuesday to
choose as ' governor a progressive man
of the kind to be his own master. He
likewise urged a progressive platform
and declared that "it will not do for the
choice of the convention at Syracuse to
be any less free than that which gave
the third party Mr. Straus and the regu
lar republican party Mr. Hedges."

QUINCY, 111., Sept. 29.-Four persons
were murdered near here Friday night
under circumstances Indicating one of the
most revolting crimes in the history -of
the state. The home of the victims was
burned In an effort to destroy the bodies,
but two of them escaped the flames suffi
clentily to show that the heads had been
split with an axe. The dead are Charles
Pfanschmldt, his wife, their 16-year-old
daughter, Blanche, and Miss , Emma
Kaempen, 21 years old, a teacher, who
was visiting Miss Pfanschmldt The kill
ing took place at the Pfanschmldt coun
try home at-Payton, sixteen miles from
Quincy.
Police and armed posses are searching
the country for the slayer. The authori
ties believe that the murder Is the work
of a degenerate of the same kind as the
perpetrators of similar axe murders In
Iowa and Colorado recently.
Further developments tonight indicate
strongly that all four. were murdered be
fore the home was' destroyed by fire.
While the bodies .of the victims ate
charred almost beyond recognition, the
head of Miss Kaempen is well preserved
and at the top of -the skull is a wound,
evidently made with a club. She and Mrs.
Pfandschmldt were found partly under a
mattress, which had to some extent pro
tected their bodies from the flames. A
pillow upon which Miss Kaempen had
been lying was not burned. It is soaked
with blood. v
The Pfandschmldt girl's face is badly
burned, but the back of her head was pro
tected from tlie flames and there is a
wound, several inches across, through
which the brains had exuded. The bodies
of the two older persons had been burned
too badly o indicate, the nature of their
death. .
Indications are that the crime was com

ST. LOUIS, Sept. 29.-No word from
President Taft came last night or today
in reply to Governor Hadley's ultimatum
to the state republican committee yes
terday as to the terms on which he
would support the president in the pres
ent campaign. This was explained to
night by Colonel Otto F. Stifel, memher
of the 'advisory committee of the repub- j
lican national committee, who said that i
though he had wired President Taft last I
nigh' the text of Governor Hadley's
ultimatum and had failed to hear from
the president, he had sent the president
a second telegram today saying that no
immediate reply was necessary.
Colonel Stifel, explaining this action,
in a statement declared he had informed
the president that he considered "Had
ley's speech last night at the opening
of the state republican campaign as an
endorsement of Taft and a promise to
support him."
Governor Hadley's ultimatum was that
he would support President Taft for re
election only on condition that the presi
dent would at once declare himself for
presidential preference primaries and
non-bossed controlled delegations from
southern states to national conventions
In order to prevent recurrence of the
charges of fraud such as arose In the
last republican national convention.

- James W. Staccy, alias Frank -West,

cation by his wife. Is not a member of
the gang that robbed the bank, but an
agent for them, according to James
Sidlas, the Greek saloonkeeper in whose
place lieutenant Burns was injured in
an attempt to arrest the safe blowers.
More fines Srcured.
Sldias told today of his attempts to dis
pose of S140.000 of the stolen bills. Ho Bald
he personally turned over $10,000 given
him to Chief of Police McWeeney Sep
tember 18. The man who gave Sldias the
$10,000 Still Is at large, according to Sidlas,
as is another who was with him when
Sidlas was shown $140,000 In Canadian
money. A man known to the saloon
keeper as "Big Charlie" conducted the
negotiations for the exchange of the
stolen money. Sidlas says he was offered
a 15 per cent commission for changing the
bills. An attempt to change the bills In
a west Bide bank aroused suspicion and
Sidlas withdrew from the transaction In
fear that he would get into trouble, he
said.
"Big Charlie" and "Dauzell," Sidlas
says, were the two men in his saloon
with Lulu Wilson and Bessie Voight when
Burns made his attempt to arrest the
men. "Danzell" bit the lieutenant's wrist
wliile "Big Charlie" felled him with a
ol air. The two men escaped and Sidlas
says he has never seen either of them
since nor the man who had the $140,000.
Assistant Chief Hchuetler again ques
tinned Jeannette Little, Stacey's wife, to
day. He learned from her that she has
been associated with thieves since she
was U years old. From her he expects
to get a line on many gangs of thieves
besides the Canadian bank robbers.
