The Austin weekly statesman. (Austin, Tex.) 1883-1898, 1894-05-03
Coxev objected that congress did

Coxey objected that congress did
not represent the people.
Them said the speaker, your
remedy is at the ballot box. Under
our system of government, the gov
eminent itself is the people, subject to
frequent changes when the people in-
dictate at the ballot box that they
want change, You appear to be a
self.constituted representative OF the
people,"
Coxey replied hat the appeal to the
ballot box was too slow; that the re-
| lief de anded must be had at once.
500 you expect to coerce congress:
In what respect is your method OF
petition better than the old method,
which is being constantly awaited OF
by the people,"
Coxey held that written petitions
were never regarded by congress and
that he thought his method would
compel consideration.
"Do you expect to intimidate con-
gress? Do you think you can brighten
any representative into voting against
his convictions"
Coxey stated that he did not know,
but he believed 1t was the duty OF the
government to appropriate money for
the employment of the unemployed,
He said they could not wait for the
oppOrtunitv to elect men to congress
representing the people and that they
would have to have relief, even if it
were secured through revolution.
"Your proposition, "said the speaker,
"would be, if carried out, subversive
of the government. Our institutions
would be overthrOwn, and there would
be no stability of government"
C0xey sti!l persisted and said that
his army had right to assemble In
the White House grounds. The
speaker replied that he would not
grant the permission sought, that no
reason had been given which would
warrant il; if the permission were
given TO Coxey it could not be refused
to anyone for any purpose; that the
proposed method of petition meant All
attempt at intimidation or 1T meant
nothing; and that il the theory OF
public ownership was to be accepted,
as giving any assemblage the rig hit to
take possession or occupy government
property, it would apply to the treas
ury and its vaults as well.
BROWNE OUT ON BOND.
WASHINGTON, May Late in the
afternoon Brownies bail was fixed at
$500. Mrs. Emily Diggs, wealthy
resident of this city, and Mrs. Anna
Hahn, a prominent labor sympathizer,
undertook the bond and the chief
marshal was set free. Mrs. Diggs
conveyed him to her home in her car
riage, where he took dinner, and then
he returned to the army in its new
camp near the river.
Christopher Columbus Jones was lett
to anguish in the station house.
None of the Coxey people seemed to
be particularly Interested in his con-
dition or fate and it is doubtful il any
effort will be made to get him out OF
Jail. Shortly after s o'clock Coxey
made his appearance in the tent and
listened with careful attention to the
marshals account of his arrest. After
mastering the situation he had the
lamps lighted on either side OF
the platform in lower corner of the
new camp and few minutes later he
was addressing an audience made up
of limited portion of his followers
ard such curious men and women as

This booth was handsomely decorated
in flags, musical instruments, pictures
and the like, all symbolic OF country
intended to be represented:
In the center OF the hall STOOD
glistening palace of ice Cpresnmaoly)
bearing the chilling name OF Iceland.
Under ordinary circumstances such a
cold looking place would have been
summed, but the presence OF such
charming ladies in charge made that
palace as attractive as those OF SUMMER
climes that stood adjacent. This pal
ace, where such excellent ices were
served during the evening, was attend =
ed by the following ladies: Mesdanes

Crane; Misses Mollie Whitis, Gertrude
Whitis. Misses Head, Annie Mckay,
Jones. Misses Scarborough, Misses Don

son, Lottie Mexican and Campbell.
In the rear of this booth and occu-
plying all the rear end of the lower
floor was located Mexico. All the
brio brac and rare fancywork of this
famous country were Oh exhibit and
it was certainly an excellent collection,
embracing many beautiful pieces of
handiwork that should be seen to be
appreciated. This booth was in charge
of Mrs. Frank Morris, Mrs. DR.. Hill,

in state the glorious song of "Amer~

success. All the different booths were

pie. - was his response. Citizen Jones
heard the answer OF the marshal and
made similar reply to the same
query. ,.,
After the disturbances had passed
away there was a conference OF the
local prosecuting attorney ana the
police authorities as to the trial OF the
prisoners, Browne and Jones. Dis
Ii let Attorney Molloney conferred with
Major Moore, chief OF police, ana
it was decided that two men
should be arranged tomorrow before
Judge Miller of the police. court. Con-
sideratlon was next given to The charge
to be brought against the prisoners,
and Mr.. Mulowney decided to make
the charge on the broad ground OF
violation of the United States stat utes.
1t was so eDtered in the blotter OF the
station. Under this allegation speclhc
charges will be made OF entering the
capitol grounds unlawtuIly and OF
disOrderly conduct.
Mr.. Mullowuey also directed the eli
GERS pot to accept collateral in lieu OF
bail. Brownies attorney was told that
any time tail was ready Judge Miller
would fix the amount and the
clerk Of the court would make out
the papers necessary to release
the prisoners from custody. He was
asked as to the line Of defense. I'VE
will not only Defend" he said, but
we may also adopt affirmative action
through the courts. The first thing
will be TO defend the prisoners against

way some one will have to make
ample reparatiOn.

he added, "if | have the authority |

Coxey asserted that they came here
to represent 100000 of unemployed
and starving people.
"Then what is your purpose? What
do you intend to dO?"
Coxey said that they came in tn @

into q long statement about the repre-

to shelter his head as though he ex-

shouting Il ain an American citizen;

Despite his constitutional rights the
dramatic marshal was dragged to the
police station.
When the police had escorted Coxey
to his carriage, pushing him by the
shoulders. but did not seize him, he
claInbered into the vehicle, where his
wife sat with Legal Tender, in her
lap, and he stool up, a loud cheer was
sent up from the surrounding crowd.
Then the police seemed to lose their
