New Book Denounced

Chicago Professor Criticizes Hall Caine’s “The Eternal City.”

Special to The Post Express.

     Chicago, Oct. 21.—Hall Caine’s new book, “The Eternal City” was denounced, yesterday, by Albion W. Small, head professor of sociology in the University of Chicago, during a lecture on “Anarchy” before senior students. Professor Small evidently believes that there is much literature that tends to inflame the minds of people with anarchistic tendencies and thus arouse them to deeds of bloodshed.
     “Hall Caine’s last book,” said the professor, “contains more hysterics to the square inch than any other book of which I know. It is not worth any person’s consideration and should be tabooed by all right-thinking and serious minded persons. The book contains many startling situations and questions, just the kind to stir up and inflame such a mind as that of Czolgosz.”
