 GAITHERsBURG, Md. April 2S.-The jour ney of the army, though over good roads was made more than usually weary be cause of the succession of high hills and deep valleys over which the roadway lay A halt was made for 10 minutes rest at Clarksburg, which is little huddle of houses on either side of the old pike road At Green Center, where lunch was had CoXey again spoke. The tramp was re stunned, and without incident the army marched in here andw into camp about three-auarters of mile from the center of the hamlet.
 There are rumblilgs of discontent in the army, end there are predictions that the army, though it seems scarcely probable, may go to pieces before Rockville is reach. ed. Hardtack and coffee alone for, two days is evidently causing some grumbling. There have been some happenings at Rock vile. "Unknown'' Smith is down there with about D followers, who left Coxey's ranks back on the trail when CoXey de. posed Smith and re-esta blished Browne.
 They are camped on the fair grounds 6 Rockville, whither Cpxey marches his men today. "The Unknown" has printed white badges on his men thus: Friendship, Co., operation and Peace The Unknown Con. tingent of the Comntonweal Army. We Favor All Laws That Bring Peace on Earth and Good Will to Men.''
 "The Unknown formed his men at the Rockville station, and carrying sticks with white banners he started out the Balti' more road to meet the contingent of 60 men that is marching from Baltimore under the leadership of Christopher Columbus Jones. The Unknown" returned to camp later, saying that he had not seen any of the other marchers on the road
 ''The Unknown's" contingent affect to believe that when Coxey reaches there his men will largely desert to the ranks of "Unknown" Smith. They don't know, however, but that they might go over to Coxey if Marshal Carl Browne were de- posed. They expect that the Jones con tingent will join ranks with them on their arrival.
 Jones Joins .sThe Unknown"
 This morning the army started on the five mile tramp to Rockville, where they will camp on the fair grounds. There they will remain until Sunday, where the last march outside of Washington will be made, with the rendezvous at Brightwood park, which is about two miles from the city limits of Washington and on Four teenth street, one of the principal roads of the city to the north. There the army will be until Tuesday, when it is Coxey's purpose to march his men into Washing ton and up to the capitol steps.
 Talk of ructions in the CoXey camp have become more definite. It is stated that the men propose today to demand of CoXey better food than hardtack and cof- fee. It is said that they propose to ask a division among the men of the dimes paid by the public who come inside the canvas to stare at the army.
 Again it is stated that the men will de mand of CoXey some assurance as to what be proposes to do for them if their de mands on congress are successful and what he will do for them if their mission comes to naught.
 There is news from Rockville. The Christopher Columbus Jones contingent of commonwealers from Philadelphia ar rived there, 49 strong. They started the days tramp from Ashton, Md. The com missary outfit is unique. The detachment has a wagon drawn by four negroes. rope has stout sticks knotted into it, and two men, one on each siddef the rope, grasp each stick at either end and so haul it along.
 The force is made up of young men ot fair appearance. They wear red, white and blue ribbons. The party has an ''un- known." He is one of committee of min CTS who came to Washington from Crede, Colo, some time ago in behalf of silver. He came out to march in with the Jones men. He says "Soapey' Smith of Colorado is coming to Washington with 1000 men, and he ayers that between May and 15 between 2,OOO and 5000 men from Colorado will be in Washington on the same errand
