woods on the edge OF Tacoma. half mil Q
Smith himself slept i'll hotel.
The Tacoma police ordered the men to
move on and they sullenly SUNK away.
At ~ o'clock neitherCoxey nor Browne
had arrived in camp. The townspeople
were pouring in and laying down volun-
tarv toll Three policemen mixed with
the army on the best of terms. Z he
health officers inspected the camp. Two
sick men were found, William Fitzgerald
being threatened with pneumonia, and
John Smith, leader OF the band. suffering
from chills. Mutterlngs OF discomfort
were heard, and Carl Browne was threat
ened with lynching.
Carl Browne, the Marshal, put in bis
about 3 O'Clock this afternoon.
He was garbed in his spectacular buck
skin suit, and occupied the seat OF a
grocer's wagon, loaded with bread. The
men crowded around the wagon with
angry mutterings, but the sang frold OF
Marshal Browne was absolutely un-
quenched.
Jour friends down town this morning
told us they would make all arrange
ments for supplies" he shouted, mount
ing the seat OF the wagon and waving
huge loaf of bread. Brother COXey
took them at their word and left them to
care for the provisions, while we attended
to more important things. Wehave been
arranging for the grand parade and
demonstration tomorrow morning, ana
we have secured a new camp ground for
you. [ do not blame you, boys, for feei-
ing hot, but. as Shakespeare said, 'AlP 5
we'll that ends well.' and the army is still
before the eyes of the Nation"
This harangue mOllitied the men some
what. although some of them turned
away. remarking: "Y es, that's the way
he has jollied US all along the line"
Browne went to the headquarters tent,
where he was surrounded by spectators.
There will be hundred thousand
sympathizers from out OF town here
Wednesday, he declared. "All of them
will not march, but they will be here,
and the movement will spread. We
have kept all our promises up to date,
and we are going to keep them. The
parade will come off as it has been adj
vertised, and we will hold our meeting
on the Capitol steps,
Better spirits pervaded the camp after
the first meal, and hardly had the men
munched their bread than another meal
of beans, salt meats, tomatoes, coffee and
bread was served.
KELLY's ARMY.
DEs MONIES, April 3o.-Rumors of a
general tie-up of railroads running into
Des Moines were rife to-day. The labor
leaders said to-day if Kelly was not fur
nished transportation inside of four days
a strike, prepared by the leaders of the
American Railway Union, would be in
augurated on all the roads here, and a
tie-up would continue until the army
was carried to Chicago. Committees of
labor organizations were busy all day
getting food and money. 1t is as
serted that the Great Western will fur
nish stock train for 81, 800. and solicit
ing committees were confident that the
amount would be raised. Threats of vio-
lence should they refuse the train were
numerous. Kelly's men declare they
will leave Des Moines only by rail.
Mayor Hill sent word that the Kelly
army would be expected to move to-
morrow. Annie Hooton and Edna Har-
per, who have been with the army all the
week, were told by Kelly to-day they
could march with the Industrials no fur
ther.
The denunciation by the labor classes
of the action Of the city authorities in the
handling Of the Industrial Army and the
continued growth of sentiment favora-
BILE to Kelly have kept the city officials in
turmoil all day. Mayor Hill stated
during the afternoon that he would go
to Kelly with police magistrate, de-
clare the army under arrest, try the
men in a bunch as vagrants, and sentence
them to three days in Jail. Then he said
he would turn the papers over to the
Sheriff to serve, thus shifting the re-
sponsibility on to the county.
The city has kept its promise to furnish
but one days rations, but the citizens
came to the front with six wagon loads
this evening, and say there is sufficient
food promised to keep the army week.
As revenge for the slight received from

busy all day developing sentiment for
Kelly, with results anything but salts
factory to the authorities. The labor or
ganizations still believe that transporta-
ton TO Dubuque will be secured over the
Great Western, and talk of tearing up
the road should it not be secured was
heard tonight. A committee of railroad
officials called on the Clerk of the United
States Court to-day and arranged for ar
rests in case train is stolen.
The City Council held an extra session
tonight to consider the situation.
WAITING FOR SOMETHING no TURN UP.
TACOMA (Wash.), April 30.-General
Jumbo" came into town to-day with a
bag full of coin, which he exchanged for
bank notes. We're going out of Puy-
allup tonight and amt going to walk, -
said he. He has lost much of his bragga-
docia air. and looks worried. Two wag-
ons circulated through the city to-day,
taking collections OF provisions for the
army out at Puyallup. The armies are
like Micawber waiting for something to
turn up.
The Seattle army held private session
in the big unfinished hotel this after
noon. Il was mainly for the purpose of
receiving comfort and encouragement
The star of Cantwell, who az one time
threatened to supplant General Shepard,
IS distinctly on the wane. He was too
frothy and radical to last long. United
States Marshal Drake has every point
guarded by deputies, and as no freight
trains leave here in the night it will be
difficult for the Commonwealers to steal a
train. Provisions are not over plentiful.
Failure stares them in the face. Nobody
believes they will ever tramp it across
the Cascades.
CARTER's BAND.
SALT LAKE, April 30.-Mr. Carter and
his band of unemployed fellow-citizens,
claiming to number $50 men, left the city
this afternoon. All negotiations with the
Rio Grande Western Railroad have failed
for the time. The journey was begun on
foot. Dinner was taken at the up-house
on West Second street. and at l o'clock a
parade took place through the principal
streets. Three-uuarters of an hour later
Carter was making fiery speech in the
vacant 3ot oppOslJe the metropolitan
Hotel. In substance he said the move
meni was the greatest scheme ever started
in L tah The cause of its birth was
twenty-one years of unwise legislation.
The elimination had come. and disas-
trous results would follow unless the adj
ministration yielded To the living petition
that had already commenced to present
itself TO the authorities at Washington.
"Should all peaceful supplication fail to
bring relief, then,i shouted Carter, 81
say TO arms; we will endure tyranny nc
louger' Further along in his speech
Carter declared: 81 desire it understood
that we Will not falter or fail in the ac-
complishment of our mission. We are
going to Washington, and no power or
earth can stop us very long. There arr
