You !ie3capo that desperate scramblo for lo^gago ..which one has to fight through ;jn"|iitain and on: tho Continent. The " 'American baggage system, and travel ling system generally, is as near per .(jclion as one can imagine. Chicago iian endless wonder to the stranger. Ho can Ijjjdlyrrealise thnb this rushing city of HOO,OOO. neople is only half, a century's growth. "Yet 8o it is. Curious place for acifyV too. Sixty years ago it was a mud jirarap. X illustrates tho comparative energy of tbe East and the West. I have tfliloa laboriously through the miserable j Streets and;blaek dirty canals of Venice; but here in. Chicago, which wa3 once a sort of Venice, there avo magnificent atreofcs, formed, on fcho very top of oozo and water. These streets, lam told, havo been tilled in •toftpd'epth of ten or twelve feet,-and, in vSeadof the slow gliding of funereal-looking. ."gondolas, there is the swift rush of cab and 'carriage, and the hurrying tread of a teem ing population. It is this energy of its population that has made Chicago the capital of tlie centre of America. Ihere i 3 ;& tradition,Of an early settler, in which ho is irepresented as-saying that ho had seen the time when he could havo bought the ground on which Chicago now stands - or, in his >iriore ekpi"essive phraseology, " tho whole tarnation swamp "-for a pair of old boots. '"mi.why did nob you ?" he was asked. ."Ah, .stranger, I hadn't the boots." ;Timds are vastly changed since them. It seems but tho other day since a milkmaid apscther.lighfc in her byre, and out of that Ettlp accident, sprang a lire that, in one ■ light scoured Chicago to ashes and ber jeople to penury. But she. rose again like tlie fliterax,,. a.nd now is probaoly the ■weaitiavsafe dty in America. In three in dustries she leads the world. As a lumber Market,.a? a, : pork market, and a manufac turer of steel rails she is pre-eminent. ■Everybody has heard of her pork-killing es tablishment. Mr Carnegie tells us that there marches into Chicago every day, Sunday and Satnrelay, a procession of vic tims equal to ten animals abreast, and two and a half ruilef long. Its merchants aro 1 pririces, whbj b6 far ajs mere monoy goes, could buy up, half the horeditary prince lings of; the world. Here aro congre gated l<he millionaires of America. Chicago can'bbasb a larger number of these , than any .other city in the States. ■ ,The','ChicagoTimes,"theleadingmorning oracle; Was asserting while I was there tiint 0 mere inillioniiro is no object'of wonder now,::' (!lb! is only the men that ha^'o amassed more than two hundred, millions ■if ho .excite, attention, and oven this clas? lias ceased to.: be a novelty." And there am,Bcore3 i of them in Chicago. It is Carious," too, that most' of theso have slioii up like; intishrooms in the night. A pute: ofa century ago many, of them bad hardly, as, much as would give them b month's.credit with their warehouse men. -Qnef of them commenced ' life as S'brakeman, and another hawked round apatent mousetrap, and was lucky enough .wm{ ffie!popular want and stride on to sncce33.Nor.can it be said that the worthy raizengiare wanting in public spirit.

] c3.?j !?&™stcj9, sagely chewing their pen, handjea Qr burning over their "parchmentp, and not seldom, like Chaucer's Serjeant of Lawe, seeming busier than they were; and the grave and gloved policeman, whose echoing call of " silence A was thtflling " W! 1OS(? sm>h3 made glad, whose frown was torriblo." Bub as I enter hero — hey, presto! what a ohango. The Judge is an ordinary man like the rest of us— sooms as if ho had just "come in from tho strcob. He has neither wig nor gown—just cvery-day clothes. Nor have the barristers either. AH tho impressive paraphorrialia of an English Court of Justice is nowhero hero ; oven the very policeman lets you alone, and is not eternally fixing you with oithor eye or hand. Ifc is altogether a vory hotnoly concern this. Nobody seema much impressed, bub every one takes things in a familiar aort of way. Tobacco-chewing is common. The floor bears ovidqnb traces of this ; and who could help it when a high dignitary seta the good example ? I see (Tio leadinG; attorney for tho prosecution etop in tho middle of a sentence, when ho is addrcssiug tho Judge to spit out a tobacco.squirt. ; Thab gives the last blow to my imagined judicial (iigniby. I toko a sear, and feel free and ousy myself. Before mo nib the eight, men charged with tho crime of murder. •They ore young ; most of them good-looking; all are intelligent. Tho majority show evidences of foreign extrac tion, ns indeed is.the fitcb.-■ With two or tlirce exceptions, thoy aro mostly Germans. I'nrsonfi is an American, I believe ; ,was for merly a printer in Texas, but, drifting into the role of a labour agitator, was forced to tluj. front, and is now one of Mio leaders of tho.- Anarchic movement in Chicago. Ficldon, another of tho group, is a waggon driver in the city, and Is an Englishman by birth. The rest, 1 juclpo, arc of Gorman oxtractionr "Four days have been 'spent in drying to get a jury together. One liun drerj and twonty-flix havo been called up, and only two or bhreo selected. Tho prisoners' counsel avails himself to the utmost extent of his rights. He has a particular "down" on Irishmen, Scandi navians, and 'Catholics. The accused, meantime* seem quite happy. Some of them aro reading now.spa|>crs. Chiefly I see German prints : " Arboitor Zoifcung," li Sozial Demokrat," " Liberty," "Justice," etc., all organs of the labour party In Chicago. I havo said thab they were not only good-looking, these men, bub intelli gent. Most of' them nrc young-none over- forty, I should judge ; but nearly every face i 3 thin and eager-looking— "sicklied o'er with tho pale cast of thought." Gaesar says to Antony:

Let mo have mon about, me Mint nro fnt; Sl'-ok-hoadcd men, and such as sleep o' nights.

Your C'lsslus hflß n loan find.hungry look : Ho thinks too much—such men are dangerous. Cajsar would probably havo boon uneasy if bo had had those Anarchists about' hint) They are neither sleek -headed nor fat, nor such, apparently, "as eloep o' nights." They havo a loan nnd hungry look—a look as of men who both think and have made up their minds. " Such men ore dangerous"— decidedly. It turns out later on that these men are rightly described as dangerous— dangerous at least to one class. They have* studied science to some offect. It comes out in evidence, e.g., that they had laid a scheme for the destruction of the capitalists by thoaid of dynamite, prussic acid, etc. Detectives swear thai; they attended meet ings presided over by these men, in which the free use of the dagger, dynamite, and rifle was openly urged.. It was urged that on a given Anarchists should meet and hurl dynamite bombs into tho palatial residences of the rich. Spiesj one of the accused here, and editor of the "Arbeiter Zeitung," a German Anarchist paper published in Chicago and having an immense circulation, had another plan. "My scheme," he.is reported to have said, "is tho best in the world. I have studied it out carefully and closely. It is this: Let every man arm. himself with a littlo syringe, just enough to be concealed in tho closed hand. The point of the syrintya should be small and fine as that of a needle, so that it can easily, penotrate clothing and skin. Tho bulb of the syringe rnuet be; filled with prussic acid, and then it is all ready for business. Armed with this you can walk u'-palongsido the capitalist to bo removed, quickly insert tho needle point through his clothes and into his flesh, and at the same time squeeze the bulb, sending the prussic acid,into his veins. Tho victim would not .mind the attack any more than he would notice the slight prick of a pin or tho bito of a flea; but the poison would kill him in a very fow minutes, and his death would be a horrible one. He would not know, and if he did he could not toll, what had been done to him." The meeting, it is said, greeted this with acclamations of ap proval. This does seem a little startling , , and th 6 men who advocated this, are worth something more than a. .passing notice It is to bo remomberod;that these eight young fellows heio are not alone. They are bufc a type of-an immense organisation that

is. sending its roots through American society.' "Nor are. they the sentiments of an" uneducated or , ignorant class. They nro the thoughts simmering in the minds of thinking thousands- of thousands ivlio are preparing by forcible means, if those I have quoted are a sample—to over turn the whole basi3 of society. It is all very wcll'for'newspapers to sneer at them; in this fashion, e.g. : \ ~ He lectured on Unions end labour. And wildly, he brandished ■his-fisf. And told tJiom to take suri anfl sabre. And ' go " for the cnpitulist.

He told them thoy never need cumber Their thoughts with respect to the law. : Ho, said he was one of their number. But oil that he wowed was his jaw. Very good. But the Anarchists have been working this jaw to some effect. There are hundreds of Anarchist Clubs-in and around Chicago, and in other largecities -especially Milwaukee, Cincinnati; and New York. Hero the men who only work their jaw have full and free play, and that they make the moat of their opportunity is proved by the numbers that have accepted their1 princi ples and joined their organisation. There is not a night in the week in which scores of meetings are not held in Chicago and elsewhere in which ' sentiments like the. above are promulgated. A curious feature is the number of women that seem to take a prominent part in the movement. Foi'emost among these is the wife of Parsons. I see her here in the Court-houso busily taking notes. She isa ncoress—or the next .thing to it, but is said to be a woman of remarkable courage and ability. She it was who proposed at the meeting "to which' I' have referred that the Anarchists should arm thomselves with bombs and attack tho palabial residences of the rich. \Vbat,inatter if : the 'innocent fall with tho guilty,?' One cannot help that, she argued. (.' Of course, some innocent people will suffer, but we cannot afford to waste our sympathy upon them.;. You cannob make an omelet without breaking eggs. . These people mean ..business,.,,. Every mghb intbeweeK drilling is carried on in ecore.s of meeting-places.' Tbeyiare steadily arm into Ench Anarchist is ordered to provide himself with a rifle,; and ho that lias, no ri» to-'sell'hi* coab andbuy one...:\For the timo being, perhaps, the movement has received a check/; Thea? pigli i men have, I believe, been since convicted of murder and sentenced to death. They,, have ;appealed upon i technical, point;, and I, have not heard how the decision has gone.;: but even suppose ib'has .gone a»aihßt them and they go to the scaffold, others'are'ready, to take their'places ■and die as did they. But of ■what use is that?-To meet thismovemenb by force only-will simply cause it to gjf&Vj;, and yet the average, Yankee, manufac turer things that'fa'rmiieso and force are all that is required. ' Is romember being much amused at a specimen.of- this class whom I mefe on board-tbo Wararoa ,on my way up to San Francisco. He was the ro pres6tttaeiv6 of a Chicago, imanufadturin^ firm—agricultural.implcroehts and that sotjb of thing. We got into some conversation

over the labour question; I had been ex pressing some opinion as to the difficulty it was causing in America. :" Oh," he says, "wo soon settle that. Tho Government stands no — ■— nonsense of that kind ;if they show fight we just shoot 'em down right; away." This was how the settlement"of the question presented itself to this Yankee —and he was a native American, and I daresay fairly enough represents ,tljo solu tion of tho problem which his class thinks the only right one. It is perfectly true the American Government make sharp, swift work with rioting -, as witness rtho New York riots several years, ago. But. forco is no answer, and never can bean answer, to movements such as the Ajmr-j chists represent. A .much wiser and effec tive plan would be to inquire what is the origin and history-of the Anarchist; ' How is it that tho richest and greatest country in tho world can give rise to men and women so desperately earnest as these ? The Anarchist theory seems at first sight pre posterously absurd, but the AnarchTsb him self is a veritable fact which the Government of the day cannot afford to ignore. In my next "Notes i and Notions" I shall try io indicate tho conditions of i;hc sqcial state which have made tlio Anarchist a power itv America,
