Ka hoki ki Chicago i te marama o Whiringa-a-rangi 1897, ka uru ia ki te roopu huri noa i te "Free Society" i uru atu ki a Emma Goldman. I whakapae a ia ki a ia ki te whakamātau ki te whakawātea i a Alexander Berkman i te whare herehere mā te kōkiri i te whare herehere, engari kāore i angitu. I muri i te kohurutanga o te Perehitini o McKinley
I hopukina ia, i maka ki te whare herehere me ētahi atu o ngā hoa o te pukapuka, engari i tukuna wawe i muri mai. I haere tonu a Fox i tana mahi tuhituhi me te korero i New York me Chicago mo nga tau e whai ake nei, ka marena ki a Esther Abramowitz i tetahi wa i waenganui o te tekau tau.
