In lieu of the ball she spent some time in the Cook county Jail, while the government anxious to secure her extradition to New York, spent $30,000 and employed 200 detectives to get evidence against her. Every efTort was made to connect the "queen" with the act of C zolgosz, Imt as no cowardly proof was forthcoming she hud finally to be and came east once more. In 1902. during the strike of the weavers In Paterson, Emma Goldman, working with a group of local anar- chists, used the opportunity to agitate her doctrines. Dining the progress of the strike an encounter took place between the mob and the police, as a result of which warrants were Issued for the arrest of the queen, Luigi Gallerul, William McQueen and Rudolph Grossman. The latter two were arrested, tried and sentenced to five Miss Goldman years' Imprisonment went Into hiding and was never brought to court. Outwitted the Law. Gallernl fled to Barre, Vt., where he began the publication of the Cronach Souversiva, an anarchistic organ. Emma Goldman made frequent visits to Barre, and with the aid of the paper and Gallernl gained a large following among the Italian stonecutters of that region, through whom anarchism has spread among Italians throughout the land. Here, as in other cities, Miss Goldman was prevented from speaking a number of times by the police. In October, 1903, John Turner ar rived In this country at the Invitation of Miss Goldman, with the object of lecturing on the subjects of Trade serving ll years for bis attempt en the life of lie ry C Frick at Pittsburg, Pa. During all these years Emma Goldman visited him many times, often making a special trip from New York to Allegheny, where he was Imprisoned. .She traveled under an assumed name and she laughingly tells the story that she was never recognized. When asked how she managed to hide her Identity she simply smiles, and the questioner must be satisfied with that answer. She had made several attempts to e the reduction of Berkman's sentence of 23 years, less the seven years' time allowance for good behavior, but In this she was not successful, and Berkman was compelled to serve his full sentence. Immediately following his release he came east and Joined the queen" In the publication of Mother Earth, which In Its beginning enjoyed the active support of the radicals of the country. Their sympathy, however, was partly alienated as the result of the October Issue of 1906, the contents of which were devoted to the consideration of Czolgosx and his act, and ol the social and psychological slgnlfl cance of the latter. The New York police now becams very active against the anarchists, the squad' specially created "unarchlst working with vigor, and Ihelr effort! finally resulting in the forcible diaper slon of a meeting called by anarchlBti to discuss the act of Czolgosz.

Again, In 1907, Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman, were repeatedly arrested and prevented from speaking by the police in various cities. The "queen" then visited Amsterdam, Holland, where she attended the interna tlonal anarchist conference in August, 1907. On her return to America she was confronted by the federal autborl ties, who tried to keep her out of the land, but In this they were unsuccessse-cur- ful.

How true this may be can be judged by her subsequent career. The Buffalo Tragedy. On September 6, 1901. President McKinley was shot by Leon Czolgos at the Buffalo exposition, his Injuries resulting fatally.
