of Socialism, Gives Vi?wo.
New York, August "0.? Einil \ ;:ndervoldc,
leader of tne Socialist part}
in Belgium, and one of the foremost
exponents of socialism in Europe, who
ha:; arrived here accompanied by Senator
Houzeau, to attend a m< ting of

with keen interest. There is no
occasion for alarm over the spread of
social revolution, which, he says, la
in progress here to even a greater ex.
tent than Europe.
"At first, in tho nature of an Importation
from Germany," he continued,
"the doctrines of socialism appear to
have spread to a considerable class
of those who call themselves nativeborn
Americans.
"During the last five years especially
the movement seems to have
gone forward by leaps and bounds, until
now there are many who believe
the doctrines of socialism, whereas
ten years ago they would have as soon
have thought of calling themselves anarchists.
"In Europe there is no opporruntty
of anything but a peaceful revision, tho
military powers are too strong. In
the United States, there Is tho opportunity.
I think, but not the desire for
any such radical measures. But tho
movement is of slow growth, it is certain,
and the day will come, in the life,
time of the young men of today when
this country will be ruled according
to the doctrines which socialists teach.
"Strikes, of which there have been
many, and trusts, which I hoar so
many persons sp aking or as a monaco
to the country's future, arc only stopping
stones In the development of socialism

an attempt to murder a ..amlly living
a few miles from this city, near Ouewa
cia postoffice, and there is great excite,
ment in the neighborhood of the caj>ture
and the attempt at the crime.

family to receive this treatment at
their hands was to have been Mrs.
Maggie Plott and her three children,
residing on a plantation near Chewacia.
A negro by the name of John Cook
was to kill Mrs. Plott and her daughter,
Miss Pearl Plott. aged about 18
years. Another member of the band

and Riley, aged 12. The house was
then to be plundered, kerosene poured
upon It, and the bodi's of the murdered
members of the family, and the whole
then burned.
The attempt to rarry out tho plot
was made on Sunday evening, Aug. 7,
Cook working at the window of Pearl
Plott's room .and another working underneath
the house. Cook had succeeded
in prying open the shutter,
which barred the window, but Pearl
was awakened by the noise, and called
to her brother. lie arrived In the
room Just as the negro was in the act
of climbing in at Hie window, and he
hastily fired his gun at htm, missing
him, but frightening him and the accomplice
away.
The affair was kept as quietly as
possible, .except that tho citizens of
the neighborhood began at once a systematic
Inquiry into the matter, with
the hope of ultimately securing some
clew to the brutes and effecting their
arrest.
After about a week's Tabors, a confession
was secured from two of thn
members of the gang, and Monday five
of thom were taken into custody?John
Cook, Homer Peterson and Ella Peter.
