Sensations In Store.
“The adjourned conspiracy trial at Chicago will never be resumed. It will die out,” says Eugene V. Debs, president of the American Railway Union. “I will never be put on the stand again inthat case. I want a trial but the General Managers’ association has connived to have it killed. We had the jury with us unanimously, and had them completely knocked out. Mr. Wickes went to Europe to escape the trial. I will tell the people of Chicago a few things on Thursday evening, Feb. 28, when I will speak at the Auditorium on ‘Who Are the Conspirators?’ A series of sensations will be sprung regarding the General Managers’ Association, which would have come out in the trial if it had been continued.”
