Washington, May 2 There was :i critical moment here. yesterday tit the capitol just after Coxey was hustled oil' the steps. The "wealcrs" in the panu'c were jammed and jostled by the crowd, some being thrown about iu every diiec tion. The clanging of the bells on tin cable cars and the yelling and suninn of the people made the scene hideous. The mounted police dashed into Hie crowd endeavoring to get them b;xk on th-; sidewalk and restore some semblance ol order, but for sonic time it was of no avail. It became necessary to use their clubs as a menace. Some of the Coxey - ites were jostled and crowded until they reached the wall of the grounds, anil it looked as though they were about to head for the capitol. A rush was made by a mass of people upon the scene, anil many ran pell-mell to the pl.iza, over lawns, trampling down the shrubbery and vines. bout the cast of the capitol pande monium reigned, and the mounted police made a charge to clear the way. Then occurred a scene scarcely ever be fore wit nessed about the big building. Men, women and children rushed for the side walks, fulling over and trampling on one another in their attempt to reach n place of safety. Finally a way was cleared, and out in the street could be seen the Coxeyites, presenting a deplorable and comical sight in their rags and tatters after their contact with the yelling and surging populace. Itrowne s personality was then un exhibition. He rode liis mettlesome charger in forbidden paths of the capitol grounds and jumped mm over the stone coping to the eastern part ol the park A mounted olliccr started alter mm, and, as he resisted arrest, he received a club bing. His head was cut, hut it is not thought that he was badly hurt. This incident started rumors nlloat as to general fighting, but no such thing oc curred. The plazu in front ol the main portion of the capitol building then took on its usual appearance just as is on every day when Congress is in session. This whole affair of Coxey lusted not over 10 minutes. Carle Hrowne,ehitl in.nshalol'Coxcv's army and Christopher Columbin Jones, leader of the I'hiladelphia .-out indent, were placed on trial in the Washington city police court this morning on the charge of violating the I'nited States statutes and interfering with an arrest, respectively. Coxey was in court and wus artcsted on the charge of unlawfully entering the I'nited States capitol grounds, and displaying a banmr and injuring certain plants and shrubs in he grounds. Itrownc demanded a jury trial lor each prisoner, which was granted, and the cuses went over until b'tiilay. li;iil in $300 was demanded 111 each ease, and Coxey, Browne and Jones were locked up until shortly after 11 o'clock when Frank Hume, wholisale liquor dealer. gave bond for Cosey and Jones, and they were released. Itrownc liirntsiicd li.nl lust uight. In the House today jolmsor,l Miiocra' , presented as privileged matter a resolu tion directing the committee on pulilie buildings and grounds to investigate the occurences on the capitol grounds t ester day, to determine whether unnecessary force was used by the police; whether un offending citizeus were cruelly beaten, and whether the dignity of the House had been violated. The Speaker held that no privilege attached to the iimiIu tion, whereupon Johnson nsktd unaui motis consent for its consideration, but this whs refused. Hi;s Moinks, la., May 2. Kcfly sarmv of Coxeyites are still here, unable to yet transportation. Provisions are fcirce and the citizens arc not inclined to lur nisli more. INCIvNDIARV TALK. Kaunas Officials Predict a ileto- ' littloii. Toi'liKA, kus., May 2. R S. Osborne, Secretary ol State, when told that Coxey had been arrested, became uiuchcxcit d and gave utterances to some wild re marks. He said: "I know what Un charge is. 1 expect that this uprising must lie put down. 1 bcre will no overt action by the people until the next lection. I hen, simultaneously with the returns, names will be shot up into the air from the Atlantic to the Pacific and every palatial residence iu the land will be destroyed in this spontaneous uprising of the peo pie. Woe unto them who have sought to stay this tide for the last six months. The farmers arc preparing lor this. They arc selling a 1 orse or a cow and buying rifles with the proceeds, and many me chanics are doing the same. Oovernor l,cwelhng believes thnt tne arrest of Coxey will prove to ben serious blunder. He said: "It will have the ef fect of uniting the masses in o common cause. 1 lie 1'opulists as a rule iook upon the demonstration in W ashttigtou yesterday as the beginning 01 a rcvoiu tion."

Henry Smith is u colored man who, it is believed, can control some colored votes. Yesterday afternoon Smith was in Justice l rauk Carter s court on a charge of false pretense and was held to court in a $200 bond. Smith was sent down to Jailer Jamison's "house under the hill." The jailer heard Smith say to someone outside the jail that he would work in the coming election for the party that secured his release. bate in the afternoon luiler lamison received u note from Mayor Putton, in which that official said tliat it Mr. lami son would release Henry Smithfrom cus tody he, the Mayor, would "fix the mut ter in the morning, and I assure you I will stand between you and all danger." The jailer tkcliued to grant the re quest, informing the nressenger that nothing but an order for release from the committing magistrate would be heeded. About 10 minutes later, Mr. lamison savs, the messenger returned, accompanied by Constable Poor, who assured the jailer that the note was really from the Mayor and not a fake or lorgcry. But this did not change mat ters, and Mr. Jamison still declined to grant the request. This morning the Mayor became bondsman for Smith and hewnsri leased. Referring to the matter the Mayor told Tin-: CrnziiX he had asked Mr. Jamison to release him, but the jailer prclerrcc to wait until the bond was made. Smith is one of the Mayor's tenants and the Mayor says he had the right to go on his bond if he fc't so disposed. Corbeit Stirred. Lonhox, May 2.
