Mi-rlif fiiif irtsibl v it i he rank and tile slept on the ground i in tlie open air or in such shelter as they aid tlnd in the Driving park, and this i rning thev were stitf with cold as w a as hungrv. Nothing had been pro ud d for breakfast and they had noth ig u eat until 1:30 o'clock. There was - great deal of growling and some C-r. at and some of the men started out : raging on their own hook. Men were i-e-mg from door to door at private duellings in Washington this evening, il resenting themselves to be members tfCoxey's command. Karlv in the afternoon some provisions arrived from the city and after the men In i Uen fed Browne arrived with ad ittiunal supplies. He explained that ilie delay was due to the fact that he and Cu.xVvhad trusted to the local Com Mionuealers to feed the men. "We were Ui. all Jay attending to other matters" sad, "trying to get a place in town for you boys, so that you can go about the city and in the Capitol and wherever you please. We think you will behave -yourseh es. As Shakespeare says, 'all's we!l that ends well' and so as this has nded well I hope there wont be any ore trouble. Ps the word around fce hoys and tell them they'll get their .-neairf regular hereafter." There was not a murmur of dissent ftd so the proposed mutiny was dissi-I-ated. Browne gave audience to the Newspaper men in hi3 tent afterwards 'Qd told them that the army would re Jn at Brightwood park to-night and rm the line for the march to the Capi- tol there to-morrow mominz. "We ; dont know where well stav to-morrow ; the Haven't we done everything I said we ' WOuld'" J ah oTPimf Kairino. i f , f mo men to form the parade'" gome one said. I did not sav we'd have 100.000 men in line," answered Browne. "I said . there would be 100,000 people with us in j Washington. And bo there will be, but I they won't be in line. I know the peo ple. They sympathize with us, but they won't join in the procession to the Capi tol. But we will have 100,000 people along the route. Trains are bringing in thousands of people, and there'll be 100, 300 strangers in Washington to-morrow to see us." Browne baid that the band and bag gage wagons and all the camping para- thernalia would appear m tne uemon- stration to-morrow. He was asked what he pioposed to do if the District authori ties decided that the parade was in viola tion of the law, and he answered that the army had as much right to march to the Capitol as any one else had, and they proposed to do so with the band playing and Hags Hying. Nearly all of the foragers returned to camp in time for su piper. The route from the camp to the city has lieen changed. The parade will come in by the Fourteenth street road to Mt. Pleasant, a suburb of the city, thence via Fourteenth street premier to Pennsylvania avenue to the Capitol grounds. At this point the body will turn into First street, up B street to Del aware avenue, Northeast, which will place them on the northeast border of the grounds. Here it is proposed to dis band and enter as indivi uials unless per mission is subsequently granted them to go in as a body. Browne and Coxey spent a large part of the day seeking a location within the city for their camp. An enclosed square of vacant lots southeast of the Capitol lias been offered them and if they can obtain permission from the city author ities they will doubtless occupy it. al though it affords no shelter except that from the winds by the fence. The sani tarv conditions are unfavorable also. The purpose of this is obvions. Conven ience to the prospective throngs of visit ors and to the base of supplies. To evade a city ordinance which im jMjses'a license fee of $5.00 per day upon exhibitions charging admission fees, no stated charge was made to the crowd that visited Brightwood yesterday, but a lusty lunged Commonwealer stood at a table at the entrance and announced vociferously that contributions were so licited. In this way $700 were realized and knowledge of this fact intensified the dissatisfaction at camp this morning against Bro-vne's desertion to the luxu ries of the city while the men hungered . Washington, May 1. Jacob S. Coxey 's much advertised demonstration on behalf of the "Commonweal of Christ," in favor of good roads and the repudiation of National obligations to Iav interest on bonds, ended to day in a mi iri oi-ut finn men out of the originally promised hun dreds of thousands marched upthe Capitol hill and marched down again. In this six hundred were included all the un employed of the Capital who could be drummed into support of the movement. The local contingent dispersed after the Capitol fiasco was over, and only the original three hundred marched down into the newly-selected camp near an open sewer canal, condemned as an unh&thy, resting place by the health i OI II ( PlS.

The day was warm and pleasant, the road from Brightwood to the citv good but dusty, and down hill nearly all the way. The route was down Fourteenth street to Pennsylvania a.enue, to the foot of Capitol hdl; south to B strt-etand along B street to the east ern end of the Capitol grounds. At the head of the soldiers of peace three mounted tiolicemen. Then were came Mrs. Anna L. Diggs, the Populist orator of Kansas, in an open barouche, Willi utrl iiust;uiu uuu . w Then came Miss Mattie Coxey, dressed in white, her blonde hair flowing loose down her back and with a small liberty cap upon her head. She rode a white horse. Some person had taken compas- Son upon her near the city boundary and had given her an old parasol, with with her husband and two daughters. .i,.-.i, cfi shP terf rt her heaa trom ine ravs of the sun. by this time too warm for comfort. Two old soldiers, one a Federal and the other a Confederate, both members of the Commonweal, marched on foot by her side, forming a guard of honor. Carle Browne followed upon a large gray Norman stallion. Then seven foot-sore musicians, Mrs. Coxey and the baby, "Legal Ten der," came next in a phaeton. After them came the rank and file divided into communes or companies, separated by the baggage wagons. The greater part of the contents of these wagons seemed to be composed cf the paraphernalia of Carle Browne's panorama, which he has exhibited at each stopping place along the route.

She was dressed in dark blue. was draped in the American colors and also wore a liberty cap upon her heath Her name is Miss Lavalette. At the boundary was drawn up the Washington contingent, even more un promising in appearance than Coxey's men after their long march. These num bered about 150 and accessions along the route swelled the total to 300 by the time they reached the Capitol hill. The streets along the march were lined with people who showed much interest and curiosity but little enthusiasm. They were the ordinary throng that a public display of any kind always draws to the streets of Washington, largely women and chil dren. The parade reached the city at 11:20 o'clock. It was -not permitted west of Fourteenth street at the instance of the President, who thought it inadvisable to hazard a possible demonstration by some crank in front of the White House or Treasury building. Coxey wanted to pass these two points, but Ma j. Moore tirmly insisted on the Fourteenth street line of march. The parade moved without incident until the head of it reached Second and B streets, southeast, the end of the Capi tol grounds. Coxey had dropped out of line at the New Jersey avenue (south) entrance to the Capitol grounds when he left his buggy and proceeded on foot to the main stairs of the Capitol. Half a dozen steps has been mounted when he was confronted bv the captain of police and two lieutenants. Coxey removed his hM.t. shook hands with theonicefs nrul Rfnrtrd to the head of the stairs. B fore he had time to turn round to fa the crowd and. in fact, before he cou reached the top of the steps, Capt. KeJ lev, the police officer, informed him he could make no speech there. Coxey replied: . -Then I wish to enter a protest." s "You cannot do that either," said the police oflicer. "I wish to read a programme," said Coxey. "It cannot be read here," replied the officer. Coxey showed no inclination to yield, and he was unceremoniously hustled off the steps out into the middle of the broad plaza in front of the capitol. He made no nhvsical resistance, but pro- j tested all the while and the crowd gath ! ered aroung him and obstructed the way somewhat, but it was not a hustle of re sistance but seamed more like curiosity. The whole affair did not last over ten 1 minutes. He was taken by the police to i the edire of the crowd without any diffi culty and entered his carriage. Capt. Kelleysaid: 'Where do you go now, Mr. Coxey?' "To our new grounds in Southwest Washington," Coxey replied. He then gave the army the order to march and the disappointed "Wealers" again started on a hot tramp for a new, resting place. When Coxey, under police escort, passed out of the Capitol grounds to rejoin his army, the party was followed by at least 10.000 people, and the officers found the passage a difficult one. Finally the police and their charge reached the head of the procession on B street, directly in front of the resi dence of Congressman Springer, of Illinois. Somebody set up a cheer ana was joined ,n .the head of the Own- r - . .1 i The mob became so dense and noisy that uie - " " o:r"- from running: over the Commonwealers, A rush was made by the mass of peo nle and manv ran Dell-mell to the plaza, over the lawns, trampling down shrub bery and vines. The white horse on which Miss Coxey was mounted became . wlM held back by a young man who gngthe horse8 gridle. Coxey finally . . . frijrhtened and attempted to run away, i his wife and the crowd cheered him nfrain and arain. -..you'll have to start o s nrocesg c ried out a policeman :.s ' SDeech " came from hundreds of throatsand. rising in his phaeton, 1 Coxev started to speak.

J ietly to their new camp on wiumiru U1C , . ,. street, between rirst ana oeconu, southwest. The camp is situated aoout a mile from the Capitol. When the procession had halted on B street, between New Jersey avenue and First street, Browne rode up and down the line waiving his "banner ot peace : and making every effort to obtain the plaudits of the crowd, it was piain tnai 'he was getting read v for Ivscoupa eta t. 'What do vou intend to do? demanded a police sergeant in command of the offi ppts fAtioned with the army. "I pro- j - ... 3 pose to form mv men m line and march ! them up to the Capitol steps, responded Browne, waning his banner, and the sergeant was too astonished to say or do anything. Finally Browne rode up to Coxey s carriage and leaning over asked Coxey, "Are you ready.- Coxey nodded , ana kissiuk ui "f the vehicle. Browne aismouniea, took off his big sombrero to Mrs. Coxey and turning to Miss Coxey. said: "You won't be afraid to stay here, will you?" The girl nodded he head, and Browne and Coxey pushed into the crowd in the direction of the big white building. They walked along beside the low stone parapet surrounding the grounds as if seeking an entrance, fol lowed by a thousand people. "Jump over the wall, suggested some one. Coxev was ouick to take the suggestion and he leaped quickly over the parapet and made his way like an eel' through the dense thickness of humanity to the fiteps of the Capitol there to receive his dramatic repulse as elsewhere recorded. Browne followed, evidently with the in tention of backing Coxey up, but he be came separated from his chief. The mounted policemen, a dozen or more, who had been directed to attend Brining up tne rear came uie x u- to Browne through the day, hesitated a moment as the two leaders disappear amid the shubberr. Then a blue coated officer whipped up hh horse, dashed across the pavement, over to th iara pet and into the grounds. Hi comrades followed, and into the crowd went this platoon, trampling flowers and shrubs in their rush. People scattered right and left and the foremost officer soon reached the chief marshal, easily distinguishable bv his leather coat and white sombrero. The police officer struck Browne and the shock threw him to one side, lie aoagea behind a tree and the officers lost eight of him for an instant. - People in the crowd, in danger of be ing trampled by the oflicer s horses, seized them bv the bridles. The police seemed to think that this was an attack on them and responded with their batons. Browne became wedged m be tween a. line of mounted police and a number of officers on foot, and when one ; of these tried to seize him he resisted. A shower of blows descended on his shoul ders. Brown fought like a tiger, shout ing out that he was an American citizen and had constitutional rights. He was seized by several officers and pushed through the crowd. Vll this happened on the edge of the grass lawn adjoining the House side of the asphalt plaza, and within plain sight of the crowds on the Capitol steps. Old Christopher Columbus Jones, leader or the Philadelphia contingent, attempted to rescue Browne from the officers, and it is said that a number of Coxey ites assisted him. The old man's silk hat was jammed over his ears in a jury, and he too was placed in custody. With d mounted officer on each side of him, their hands craspins: his leather collar, and followed by more officers with Jones, the sensational leader of the common weal forces was dragged off to a cell in a police station. Just before they entered the police station Officer Stramhne passed his hand over Browne's hips and pulled a small revolver out of his trous- 1 ,4- VT linn o T-T-'i 1 TTMm er s xiip ah;&ci.i " utu 1.. . . , Browne gave his name as Carl Browne, date of his brith July 4th, 1849, at Spring field, 111., and his occupation as that of a journeyman artist. He had $7.35 in cash, several medals and a gold watch. When the officer was astcea wnat ine charge was he replied: "Disorderly con duct and for assaulting me." Browne was not charged with the assault however. The pistol ne claims to na e. taken from one of his followers, as he had strictly enjoined them not to carry weapons of any kind, knowing thestrict ness of the laws of the District against carrying concealed weapons. It was a miserable iitue auair, umuaucu aau broken. It was perfectly useless and no charge was preferred against him on this ground. He was placed in a cell and had nothing to say except: "I am going to let the American people speak for me. ' i When Jones was arraigned he gave his name slowly and distinctly: "Chris topher Columbus Jones," his age as 59 and his occupation as that of a pump builder. He had only 79 cents in money, a paper of pins and a knife. When asked to talk he said: "The press done the whole of it." He then said the Lord s prayer to himself and laid down on the bench in hia cell, refusing to say any thing else. When Jesse Coxey, who is 18 years old, rode along the line and told the Commonwealers that the chief marshal Vmri Utn taken off to a police station, the men appeared surprised, but made no loud comments. Browne is not very popular with the rank and file and his ira viewed his incarceration with omiflnimitv. Browne, when the officer took him into custody, turned to Jesse Coxey and said: Jess, I turn over the command to you." But Jesse was too young for so important an office, so foroni RwrviPTirlr- who does not ride ilXaiO-UUft M-rm. -v f v.rtT.hQnk wnci substituted for Browne Hardhv what is left of the old canal in Southwest Washington the Coxey army rested after the exciting scenes at the Capitol. Coxey went to the new camo with the men, and then left with great promptitude for the purpose as they supposed, of giving aid and com fort to his chief lieutenant, Browne, at the police station. It transpired later, however, that he had left for an entirely different purpose, which was to secure a license from the District commission ers to put his miserable followers on ex hibition at a fixed price. Coxey appealed for a permit to charge an admittance fee at tne camp vmuiuu the payment of any license, on the ground that the entire receipts were to be used for charitable purposes, mat is, feeding and clothing the members of the Commonweal. The commissioners said that thev would take the request under advisement, but in the meantime suggested he had better take out a reg ular license for one day, wmcc ne uiu and paid the fee. Coxey returned to the camp about 2:30 o clock p. m. lhe men were .g-i-nu fat-imiaA o n i as ortnn a carau was reached the commissariat opened up witi a. dinner of hard boiled c gg?, soup hrerl nri wafer. Police Justice Miller -remained, at his court until after 3 o'clock this afternoon waiting to give a hearing to the two ar rested Coxey leaders. But up to the time he had received no official notice of the arrest of Browne and Jont? and he left the court. . About 6 o'clock to-night Chief Marshal Browne was released from the Fifth pre cinct station house on a bond of foOO, furnished bv Mrs. Elizabeth A. TIaines, a dry goods "dealer in Southeast W ashmg ton. Browne was not in a pleasant mood when he went to the clerks desk to receive the articles taken from him when arrested and to questions he made surely and unsatisfactory answers, .lie did not ask for the return of the broken revolver and that matter was passed without comment. He talked in his usual strain about his Constitutional right and being on an errand of peace and stated that he would fight the case in the courts. He went to the house oi Mrs. Briggs, who was willing to go on the bond of Jones, but was not permitted to do so on account of her property be ing incumbered. There he took dinner Jta aimwt linnized bv a party of ? admirers who gathered about hum Sub- rquently he went to find Coxey to mk report. Coxey gives hi version of hi failure to get a hearing from the Capitol ftejm as follows: ; "I proceed to the centre portico, and had just started to walk up when wt era! police officers topted me and told me to go back. I want to peak herr, I said. 'You can't, said one of the p licemen. I have a right to p ak as an American citizen it i my Constitu tional right I aid. Thev r fused to Ut me proceed, and then I drew a written protest from my pocket, handing it to the principal officer and t ling him what it wa. He refu.ed to i ivive it. and then I said that I would read iU The officers refused to let me real my protest. Thev would not let me speak; they would not let me protest, so I went back to my carriage." This is the story of Coxey s "arrest," as related by Capt. Garden, the chief of the Capitol police, to ( oh Bright, the eenreant-at-arms of the Senate, and Sn- r voorhee, of Indiana, who w sittmir in the serireant-at-arms othce when Capt. Garden came in to make his reiKirt: "Coxev came up at the head of 3 . ... us band, lie stoppetl when he reached me. l was stamlins? at ine iooi oi ine steps leading to the rotunda.

He again tlemanthsi to know why and I again told him that these were niv instructions. A numwr of newspaper men were standing by Coxe3T threw the protest to them. I then approached him and walked him off through the crowd." "You did not arrest him? ajmeneil Col. Bright, with some ". interest in bin tones. "I did not arrest him replied the Captain. "I simply w alked off with him. "That isriedit." broke inS-nator oor- hees approvingly. ; "That is right, said Col bright. .echo ing the senators worus. - .o urresi. "I then, continueti Uie Captain, "walked Coxey across the grounds -in front of the library building, then south toward B street, where I left him. I do not know where he went," "Was Carl Browne with him?" in quired Col. Bright. "No. I did not see him." "Did Coxev make any disturbance? asked Senator oorhees. lie did not. He was just as nice as he was in his interview with you in this room yesterday afternoon." The Snn'8 Cotton IU view. New York:, May 1. -The Sun's cot ton report savs: Ialeral receipts at uie ports, generally favorable weather at the South, and dullness of trade in cot ton goods, were adverse features which were offset by the unexpected 'firmness of futures in Liverpool and a stronger tone at New Orleans, where futures ad vanced, and where, moreover, there was a better spot demand from the Conti nent. There was less anxiety nere uj kpII in anv event, and thus fact also con tributed to the firmness of the market to dav. There were reports that quite a large business had been done in New Orleans. On the rise here there was more or less realizing, and part of the improvement was lost. The speculation was still on a small scale, and the buying was mostly to cover shorts. One firm said: "While some of the shorts have covered, some of the stronger short interest has increased its short line by selling more atto day's improvement, It remains to be seen whether sellers will be sufficiently numerous to encourage further pressure on the short side, and enable those who are already pretty well sold to cover at a profit, as they have for some time past. In other words will Uie market be out lower? Our own impres sions are that there will be good buying from this time forward on all easy peri ods, as the aggressively bearish feeling here has been checked, and we hardly think it will revive until crop accounts become favorable or trade conditions be come worse. It is hardly ex pected that the latter be made so, and crop outlook so far cannot be said to be promising although it has not yet suffered any seri- mta Hi-q rhrlr ptrpnt that of bite nlant- . r i, . ing. The Bureau of Agriculture of North Carolina last week reported that indica tions were for a smaller acreage in that State than last vear. The Georgia bureau to-dav its April report, show- in fr that acreace is 2 per cent, less than that of last year, and the condition of the crop 1 per cent, against an aera of KX) tier cent, for the pat rive years, Our feeling is that this ioresnaoow somewhat similar conditions in all States T-rn and thre we und an in- creased acreage but a Late crop.
