FIRED ON INDUsTRIALS.
Two Coxeyites Shot by Deputy
 Marshals Tn Washington.
GEN. SANDERS IMPRISONED ARMY.

Much Sympathy at Topeka For the 500 Men
 Who Are Locked In a Trafn-Governor
 Lewelhng Speaks of Them as s.the Un-
 employed" and Calls a Mass Meeting.
 NORTH YAKIMA, Wash, May 12.-An- pther collision occurred between deputy marshals and commonwealers, and two of the latter are now confined at the hospital suffering from guushot wounds. Twenty five men captured two freight cars at El- lensburg and came down to hberate the Coxeyites imprisoned in the county jail.
 The marshals met the industrials and stopped their cars by throwing rail across the track at point two miles from this city, The industrials scrambled off She cars and started to run, but were brought to a halt by bullets from the rifles of the marshals. Two of them were wounded, but not seriously, Others to the number of 129 were marched to the county jail and locked up. Fifty Coxey- ties and a number of Yakima citizens ac- cused, of melting the army to resistance were started on early morning train under heavy guard for Seattle.
 Word has just been received that four of the industrials who started down the Va kima river in boat were drowned by the capsizing of the boat, which was caught in an eddy. The boat contained 25 men in all. .s
 Colonel Phillips arrived in Spokane with the 65 commonwealers whom he arrested at Yakima and immediately started with them for Seattle under guard of posse of deputies. k. J. Jeffreys, commander of the Seattle Coxeyites, now in Spokane, served writ of habeas corpus to compel the marshal to return the prisoners to Spokane. It is feared that the Coxeyites will make an effort to stop the train before it reaches the sound. sE
 Gave the Men Ride.
 Three hundred Coxeyites surrounded the Northern Pacific depot for an hour and howled themselves hoarse. Aspecial train, with two box cars and 8 passenger coach filled with 60 Puget sound industrials un- der arrest, had pulled from Yakima, and orders had been received from Judge Han ford to take the industrials back to Seattle for trial
 The train stood at the depot for an hour secured. In the box cars the men were busy whittling airholes, and outside the high board fence were the leaders counsel ing peace to the men in the cars and mak- ing incendiary utterances with the next breath. On the cars and guarding en- frances to the depot were 25 deputy mar shals with winchesters. When four extra coaches had been coupled on, the train went west at 30 mile rate. The purpose of hauling the men here, 250 miles east of Yakima, only to take them back to the west, is a mystery.

DueI on Horseback.

GUTHRIE, O. T., May 12.-A duel to the death was fought on the Pottawatomie county line, near Lexington, between Dep uty Sheriff Norman and One Head, 8 horse thief. Norman had been searching for One Head for some time He received word that the desperado was near Lexing- ton, and he started for that place. On reaching the county line Norman met One Head, and the battle began. Both men were wounded and fought until each fell from his horse. The searching party found them exactly as they had fallen, with weapons clasped in their hands and both stone dead.

Sanders Army Prisoners In Topeka.

TOPEKA, May 12.-The Sanders indus trialist train stealers arrived here as pris- oners of United States Marshal Medley. The attitude of Governor Lewelling was soon manifested toward the wealers. He, Mrs. Diggs Secretary of State Osborne and other Populist leaders at once held a private conference, and at its close they issued call for mass meeting to be held on the public square Ito discuss the ques- tion of the unemployed.'
 Further than that, the governor consent ed to the request that the army be allowed to camp on the courthouse grounds while in the city. Marshal Medley interfered with that plan for the present by keeping the men locked up in the train.
 At the mass meeting strong resolutions were passed demanding the resignation of United States Commissioner Waggener, as it was believed he exceeded his authority in accompanying the Missouri Pacific spe- cial train. Speeches were made by Judge Walters, G. c. Clemens, Noah Allen and Superintendent of Instruction Gaines, and all of them denounced Marshal Medley in strong terms for not taking better care of the prisoners and feeding them proper food
 A committee, consisting of the mayor and others, was appointed to call on Mar shal Medley and demand that the prisoners pc gwen IOOQ or the GUY De al1OWoQ to pro vide for them. The men themselves have not uttered word of complaint, and the food that is now being furnished by the marshal is being contributed through their own commissary department.
 Sanders says the Missouri Pacific, in blocking the road to prevent the progress of the army through Colorado, damaged engines and cars to the extent of fully s, 900.
 Not weapon of any kind was found among the memb bers of theRrmy by the deputy marshals. Military discipline has been observed since the army started, and it has been kept up since theyhave become prisoners. 5o,
 Sanders is an electrician by profession and is native of Missouri. He is 29 years old. While his men have been provided for by contributions from the public, San ders has paid for his own meals at hotels. He says he and his men are going to Wash ington because there is no work for them in the vest He hopes to reach his desta- nation by June 3.
 Marshal Neeley's prisoners will have 8 formal hearing on Monday before United States Commissioner Waggener. Sanders and his men look upon their arrest as benefcent act of Providence to hasten them on their journey to Washington.

The naval appropriation bill again oc- cupied the attention of the house without being finally disposed of. General debate on the bill was closed, however, after g heated controversy between Messrs. Reed, Boutelle and Cummings. The bringing up of old scandals against Secretary of the Navy Robeson. and allegations of Repub- lican mismanagement of the navy depart ment in general and the colonization" of voters at the navy yards at election times in particular, were responsible for the turbulent closing of the days session.
 In the morning hour bills for the relief of William Gray and Zimri Elliott were passed. The evening session was devoted to private bills on the calendar.

Diffusion of Negroes.

Of the negro problem In the Uni
ted States are legion. Schemes
have lived and died, been buried
and forgotten. Occasionally some
are resurrected for a brief time
and anon 60 the way of all flesh.
About fifteen years ago it was pro-
posed to colonize, and thereby CT
vilize, Africa by transporting five
or six million negroes to that
quarter of the globe. The plan
was discussed and advocated. 1t
furnished material for lecturers
and writer's for a time-nOthing
more. Whether any of its pro-
moters were ever so simple as to
believe in the possibility of such
a thing is uncertain.
Some months ago our exchanges
had much to say of Mr.. Graves
plan for concentrating the negroes
and giving them one or more
States entirely for themselves.
MIR. Graves is a platform lecturer.
He made this the subject of one
of his lectures. The brilliant
young orator from Georgia some
times gets hard up for a subject.
But most of the Schemes for the
settlement of this problem ema-
nate from the North. Friends on
that side, who have never seen
the negro as he is, have ever been
most jealous in finding ways OF
lettering his condition and set
Ting the race problem.
These schemes have not beer
characterized by that wisdom
which the subject merits. Here
however, we have one from the
Rev. Edward Everett Hale, O
Boston, which is worth consider
ing. In recent interview, thu
Rev. Edward Everett Hale of Bos
:. ton, we'll known as an author anC
0 sociologist, delivered himself O
b the following opinions:
is at is not necessary for me to e
i into an elaborate discussion o
v this subject; but it seems yer.
i plain to me that relief from labo
4 troubles lies in the Southern
o States. If, instead of importin!
u foreign pauper labor to work il
4 our mills and along our great EN-
r terprises of all sorts, we woul'
seek laborers among the thousand
of unemployed negroes dow
South, most beneficial chang
would be instituted in the Unite'
States. In the first place, hun
dreds and thousands of undesira
BILE immigrants would be kept on
of the country, which would b
greatly benefited thereby, and Sc
condly, employment and wage
would be given to many of the &C
lored citizens, who, under the pre-
sent regime are unable to get wor
of any kind"
This is good. The people of til
South have always thought tina
the destiny of the negro was i
their hands. We are, however
perfectly willing to let other
work out the problem. And sine
Massachusetts, has the. distinction
of formulating this plan, the Sou
thern people would be willing t
let our neighbors of the Bay Stat
have at least a million, with an
amount of lagniappe. By all mean
diffuse the negroes.-Ibervill

"SIR" CECIL.
A Story of Cook, the Arch Crook
How He Sold a Penurious Mer-
chant in This City and Got a
Good Dinner for His Tru-
BILE.

When man gains notOriety, be
it enviable or otherwise, at once
many stories are told. wherein he
figures as the hero, either in the
role of villain or of model man.
Of course, most of the stories are
apocryphal in their character.
Just now "Sir" Cecil Cook is
forming an excellent theme for
story tellers, and the boys in the
different clubs where Cook man.
aged to gain an entree are indulg-
ing their story telling propensi-
ties i'm their utmost. Mr.. ID. G.
O'Malley perhaps knows more
about Cook and his antecedents
than does any other man In this
city, but Mr.. O'Malley preserves
a discreet silence. One little stO-
ry he tells of Cook which shows
that gentleman possessed a keen
sense of humor.
When Cook was in the height
of fashion here and where it was
believed that he was a bona fide
baronet he made the acquaintance
of one of our richest merchants.
The merchant was remarkable for
his penuriOusness and would do
anything to make or save a dollar.
The merchant had a daughter to
whom dame Nature had been very
niggard in distributing to her
gifts of beauty and sweetness of
: disposition. 1t was reported that
the merchant intended to give his
daughter 100000 on her mar
riage. One day Cook accosted
the merchant in the Pickwick
T Club and during the course OF
conversation said to him: 81 be-
, lieve Mr.. that / know a way
{ by which you could make $4,000"
The merchant became excited al
once and wanted at once to talk
: over the matter. But Cook sug.
J gested privacy.
"Well, Sir Cecil" replied the
| merchant, suppose you come uE
; to my house this evening and dine
: with me and we can talk business
I over our wine when the ladies
: have retired" Cook accepted the
: invitation and at the hour design
ated by the merchant was at his
Prytania street house. An excel
S lent dinner was enjoyed and as
= soon as the ladies had retired the
: merchant did not lose any time
K but was for plunging at once into
business that was to make fol
. him a clear $4,000. He broke
= the ice by saying, II am anxious
to learn something about the mat
ter you spoke to me about to-day
Sir Cecil?"
Cook replied, ooh! yes, sir, ant
l have been thinking about it too
There is no difficulty in the mat
ter, and you can save the money
mentioned as clean as rolling off ;
log. You have a daughter, and
hear you intend giving her a $780,
600 fortune"
Eyes, sir" replied the merchant
II will give her that sum whel
she marries; but she will hav'
more at my death"
"That being So" replied Cook
"you can save $4,000 by giving
e your daughter to me, For l would
n marry her with a fortune of $50,

A Great National Combination to BE
Formed.
A plan has been set on foot among the
farmer organizations for great combina-
tion, to be known as the Farmers union.
In the plan Of organization as set forth
by the societies they declare that all
have recognized the necessity of closer
union among farmers, and that they
consider the most feasible way to accom-.
pllsh that end is to form q federation OF
all the farmers organizations. Each Of
the five organizations has considerable
strength IN its respective localities or
states. Separately they are comparatively
weak, but collectively are very strong.
They credit the Patrons OF Husbandry
with membership of 25O,00O, the Farm
ers' Alliance and Industrisl union with
375,OOO, the Farmers Alliance with lOO,-
600, The Patrons Of Industry with 75,-
600, and the Farmers Mutual Benefit
association with 5OOOO making total at
$4,000.
II 10 claimed that 9 revival Of the de-
linqusnt societies would more than
double this membership.
The Farmers union is not organized
for war, but for the Intellectual and
moral growth Of the people, and to make
moro ehIectual the means now used for
the advancement Of the peace, progress
