Library of Congress, [https://chroniclingamerica.loc.gov/lccn/sn99021999/1898-12-16/ed-1/seq-7/ "The Omaha Daily Bee, December 16, 1898": "Cause and Cure of Anarchy"]

One of the oldest records in the Library of Congress discussing homosexuality. The piece describes Luigi Lucheni, an Italian anarchist who assassinated Empress Elisabeth of Austria the same year, stating "he was like Caserio... in temperament a homo-sexual". Caserio may be referring to Italian anarchist Sante Geronimo Caserio, who assassinated President of France, Marie François Sadi Carnot in 1894. The article is largely an attempt at psychoanalyzing people with anarchist leanings but has no real scientific or medical basis.
