General Coxcy.

Gen" Coxey was in New York on
Saturday. In an interview he said
Many of the men have certificates from
labor organizations and are withal hon
est and earnest. Despite the ridicule
that has been heaped on them they are
ii set of noble fellows. See how they
marched over the snow-clad mountains.
General Washington's memorable Win
ter in Valley Forge scarcely put his
army to more severe test.
Asked what is to become of the
army when the long march to Wash
ipgton is reached and Congress has
been memorialiZed, Coxey answered
slowly
"They will dispense. But if Congress
turns a deaf ear to our demands We
will remain and clamor at the doors OF
the national legislative halls until our
cry is echoed by thousands Of others
who are now on their way to Wash
ington, and others who will flock there
to insist on their rights
"What would happen if the police
threw them into jail as Migrants 2"
''They had better not. We ere an
army of peace, but it would not do well
to deny the people, as represented by
US, the right to use the grounds. We
own them. and unless we assert our
selves the lazy fellows in Congress will
20 on filing their bellies and neglect
ing the starving
Mr.. Coxey was emphatic in giving
his opinion of President Cleveland. He
did not represent the people, he said,
but was simply fulfilling the contract
he had made with politicians. When
questioned regarding the peculiar re-
ligions he is said to entertain and advo-
cate, Coxey explained that he believed
in the doctrine Of reincarnation, not,
however, as accepted By the theoso-
phists. He believed the souls of great
men are reincarnated in great men of
succeeding generations. Seen. Stone
wall Jackson's soul, for instance" be
said, lis partially reincarnated in N.Y.
self" When asked if he remembered
his previous existence, he replied that
he did not, but was confident that he
had lived before.

THERE WAS an old Roman proverb
to the effect that there could not be a
government within a government. But
that no such idea prevails, at present,
in this country, is proved by the fact
that, though the laws thereof allow
every man who wants TO earn his bread
to do so, President Mcbride Of the
United Mine Workers Association, has
issued an order that during the existing
strike of the members of that associa-
ton, mo coal shall be permitted to be
mined Cor any purpose, even though in
alvidual mine owners agree to comply
with the strikers terms; and the order
is disobeyed only at the peril of life.
A yet, by the Declaration of Independ-
ence, every man in this country is guar
anteed the right of life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness. Miners whose
demands have been granted, and who
desire to work aud thereby provide for
their families, are prohibited from do.
ing SO by an organization more effective
than the laws of the government which
permits ii to exist.

The Bic Strike.

The gigantic coal strike is on, and
lis, 200 men have laid down their tools
for an indeinate period. It is the most
general tie-up of the soft coal regions
experienced for years, and the rumble
Of this tremendous war between opera
tors and workmen is heard westward
from the Susquehanna river to the
Rocky Mountains President Mcbride
on Saturday afternoon sent out a state
ment from Columbus, o., that, accord
ing to his latest information, 132, 900
miners struck that day.
President Mcbride was also confident
that the movement would ultimately
be Joined by 10000 miners in the coke
region of Pennsylvania and $4,000
miners in southern Illinois, Missouri
and Kansas. Eventually. he though
the authacite miners would join in the
strike, numbering l25, 900 men.
The Order ofthe United Mine Work
ers. which ordered the strike, embraces
only bituminous, or soft coal, miners.
The reason assigned for the strike has
that the scale adopted last spring has
been ignored. The object of the strike
is to restore that scale. The order was
generally obeyed in the Pennsylvania
soft coal region, in Ohio and in Illinois.
The miners OF Indiana and Kentucky
gave partial compliance, a few of
the West Virginia miners struck. The
Maryland miners continued at work,
and the prevailing sentiment is against
striking.

ANOTHER ADMINISTRATORS triple
alliance of European powers is forged
by the betrcthal of the Czarewitch of
Russia and Princess Alix of Hesse,
which thus becomes an event of the
first Importance in the development of
the political situation. The marriage,
which will not be long deferred, will
form union of Russia Germany, and
England, and may prove only less
strong than the political bonds ratified
by treaty.
The news is received with chagrin
and disappointment only in France,
which is again left severely out in the
cold. No wonder that the German
Emperor disclosed the betrothal to the
guests at Coburg with unconcealed de-
light. 1t was the real climax Of recent
personal and political events in royal
circles
The history of the betrothal goes
back TO 1889, when the Princess AiiX
visited the Russian capital. The Care
witch had at the time in st. Petersburg
domestic establishment TO which he
was deeply attached, but he showed
liking for the Princess that he had
never before displayed toward mar
riageable young woman of royal blood.
The Car and Czarina objected to the
match then, because the Czarewitchs
health was not good and the Princess
was not of the Greek Church. Emperor
William approved of the match from
the first and the Czarina, finding that
her son had strong preference in the
choice OF his future wife, has agreed to
receive the Princess as her daughter-in-
law.
The Czarewitch's health is now per-
feet. His private establishment in St.
Petersburg has been broken up and he
has shown a disposition to mend his
ways generally. Although it is not now
necessary, the Princess will join the
Greek Church.

Hagerstown, Md, yesterday. Marshal
Carl Browne preached sermon, ap-
plying the figures of revelation TO mod

MONDAY EVENING. APRIL %, 1894

ONE OF the strangest things of this
strange, eventful age, is the fact that
on Saturday last, as stated in the GA
zETTE of that day, large body OF the
employees of the protected manufact-
urers Of Philadelphia and other north
ern cities came to Washington, went TO
the Capitol, and, through Senator,
presented petition to Congress for the
continuance of a tariff, during the oper-
alton of which the existing business
depression has occurred, and under
which there have been more and great
er labor strikes than ever before. Some
of the strangeness disappears when Ii
is known that their employers paid
most of the expense of their trip, but
enough remains to make the fact re-
markable that so large a number OF
men. all of whom have had the alleged
advantages OF free schools and cheap
newspapers, could have been found TO
petition for the maintenance OF tarilf
which while it has not increased their
wages. mas doubled the cost of living,
and under which hundreds of thou
sands Of their fellow workmen are now
idle and their families anxious about
necessary supplies of meat and bread.
But strange signs appear on earth as
well as in the heavens.

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette.
WASHINGTON, April %, 1884.


The Commissioners of the District Of
Columbia issued proclamation this
afternoon advising the Commonweal
army to abandon their march to this
city. 1t tells them that no provision
will be made for their accommodation:
that they will not be permitted to
march through the streets, or to occu-
Ply the public grounds; that they will
be treated like tramps, and that in case
they attempt any violence or disorder
full and ample arrangements have been
made suppress it on the instant.
The rumor that q troop of United
States cavalry had started for Hagers-
town, Md, to intercept the Coxeyites
was brought to the attention of the War
Department officials this morning. As
sistant Secretary Doe said the facts
were that q captain of the Sth cavalry
had asked permission to take his COM
pany out for couple of days field ex-
ercise preparatory to the usual summer
trip, and this permission had been grant
ed. The department officers had not
troubled themselves TO inquire
as to the route the company
would take. The commandant at

WIPED OUT BY A QUAKE.-Tremen-
dous earthquakes shook all northern
Greece last Friday night. The city Of
Thebes is almost destroyed and half a
dozen villages around ATLANTA are in
ruins. Chalcis, Neapile and Larissa
have suffered terrible damage.
Inflated Thebes was nearly wiped
out by the shocks. Two-thirds of the
houses in the town were damaged and
most of them were ruined. Scores OF
families are homeless. The greatest
confusion and fright prevailed through
out the district around Thebes and the
terrified people have rushed away in
crowds, believing that the end of the
world had come. Conflicting stories
are told as to the loss Of life. The Gov
eminent is sending warship to Thebes
with tents, surgeons, engineers and sup
plies of food for the destitute people.
The village pineapple, on the Gulf of
ATLANTA, was destroyed by the shocks.
1t is not yet learned whether there was
any loss of life. Larymni, Proskina,
Melensiha, Mazi, Pella and Martina are
in the ruins. Serious damage has been
done at Chalcis, and several villages or
the Island of Euboea. The inhabitants
everywhere have been alarmed to-day
by fresh shocks, and it is feared that
the worst has not yet happened, as the
weather continues close and misty.
The shocks injured the northern wing
of the palace in Athens. a large stone
fell out of the gate of Hadrian; but the
general damage to Athens and the Pi-
r9us is slight.
Later reports received at Athens in
dicatc that the loss of life by the earth
quake shocks on Friday and Saturday
throughout Greece was very heavy. Ia
three villages alone 100 persons were
killed, most of whom were women and
children in church 1t is thought the
death roll will run into the hundreds.
Telegraphic communication with many
parts Of the country is badly inter
rupted, and it is impossible to get news
from some of the towns that must have
been affected by the shocks. All the
dispatches from the provinces add to
the number of killed and injured, and
greatly swell the accounts of the dam
age TO property.
