TO RECRUIT FOR COXEY.
A Meeting Called for Monday Night III
Criminal Court Room.

Coxey's commonweal army is to have
an Indianapolis division. On Monday night,
at the Criminal court room the ranks are
to be recruited by II. ]. Salisbury, of Gen.
Frey's division of the army. Several local
labor agitators are said to be at the head
of the movement. Salisbury will arrive
here on Monday and will attend the meet
ing on Monday night. The first move of
the Indianapolis branch will be on the
Mayor and Board of Public Works. One
of the aspirants to membership said yester-
day that one of the real motives in organ
izing here would be TO stir up the Board
of Public Works. He said that this body
promised TO do something for the laboring
element as soon as spring opened, and it
was proposed to hold the board TO
the promise.
Another member of the unemployed re-
marked confidentially that Coxey's recruit
ing officer would have little trouble in Sc
curing five hundred representatives from
that element which delights in agitation,
and he thought that with this number of
the unemployed out of the city and on the
road to Washington, the balance of the
sufferers would stand a better show.

THE BOARD Is PUZZLED.
County Commissioners Afraid to EnjOin
the Street-Car Company.

The Board Of County Commissioners is
puzzled. Within the last two or three
days some strange things have been poured
into the ears of the members, and they
don't know just what to make of it all.
Yesterday the board was told that the
Citizens street-railway company, firing of
the dilatory action on the part Of the
commissioners on the MichiGan-street
bridge question, proposed to wait no longer,
and would, regardless of a franchise con-
struct the Haughville line over the bridge.
1t was further intimated that the COM
pany would have the track laid under
cover of darkness Just where this infor-
nation came from the commissioners do
not say, but they claim that they have
been reliably informed.
In a consultation with County Attorney
Brown, yesterday the board demIrred to
against the company. The members fear
they could not back UP their claim 10 the
bridge II 1t came TO case OF dispute In
the courts. from the fact that there has
already been some contention al to whether
the city or the county owned tie Struc-
ture. on this point the commissioners are
not entirely satisfied. The Citizens G1m-
pany, with many Haughville citizens, have
been particularly urgent within the last
been repeatedly petitioned Tor the franz
chise The board claims that it has no
right to grant the franchise until the litiga-
ton between the Citizens company and
the City Railway Company and the city
has been settled.

The Miners Troubles.

Unless there is radical change in
the Pennsylvania coke region to-day,
the strike of the miners ana cookers is
about broken. The authorities have
taken stand and are determined to
put down the rioters at any cost now.
This policy has thrown the lawbreak-
ert into state of decentralization. AZ
ter the shcrti@s posse concluded the en-
gagement with the mob which murder
ed Chief Engineer Paddock Wednes-
day afternoon, and landed the leaders
and over one hundred strikers in jail,
every thing quoted down Immediately,
and the reports from every point in the
region at the close Of yesterday show
cd that the lawless horde has been gen
orally suhjugated.
Small outbreaks occurred at several
places early yesterday morning, but as
the day advanced the strikers lost cour-
age, and the mobs which camped out
Wednesday night, intending to make
raids at every working plant at day
break, commenced to diminish in size,
and by the time that half the route Of
e,ch mob was covered, the forces were
almost completely disbanded.
Thus commenced the beginning of
the end of what was intended to be
the greatest strike of miners and cookers
in the history of the country.
A meeting of strikers was held at
Dunbar yesterday evening, and great
weakness was shown.
Reports received at a late hour show
the strikers to be disbanding at every
point, and the men appear completely
subdued.
The people have concluded to take
the law in their own hands, and peace
will be preserved fit costs every for

The Mary land Annual Conference of
the Methodist Protestant Church, in
session at the Congress Street Church
Georgetown, yesterday devoted the
entire day to the question of ministerial
supply for camp-meetings. y resolu-
ton introduced provided that the
authority Of the president to appoint
ministers to serve at camp-mcetings be
revoked, leaving the arrangements for
ministerial supply at camp-meetlngs
entirely to the managers. This resolu-
ton launched debate that lasted until
far into the afternoon, the general i'm
preston among the majority of the
ministers present being that the passage
of the resolution meant the death of the
camp-meeting feature Of the Methodist
Protestant Church. During the debate
frequent illusions were made to the
Mount Airey Camp.
Finally vote was taken, and the
resolution was laid on the table by q
vote Of fl to 81. During the debate on
the power of the president of the con-
ference to assign ministers, q resolution
was introduced by S. j. Smith and L.
R. Dyott to give the president such
power disappointment.
The resolution was adopted by vote
of so to 81.
The committee on order of business
and official reports of quarterly con-
ferences made a report, which, after a
lengthy discussion, was referred back
to the committee for condensation.

year. Rev. Hugh L. Elderdice was re-
elected secretary, and appointed Dorsey

FRIDAY EVENING. APRIL 6, 1884

The NEGROES living in Franklin
Park. New Jersey, have become 50 OBJ
noxious and dangerous TO the white
people there, that the Law and Order
League thereof has notified them to
leave that town by tomorrow night, or
be prepared to stand the consequences
of remaining Most Of them have al
ready cone. and it is said the last one
will be, by the time specified. For
stronger reasons similar notifications
have been served upon the negroes IN
two or three villages in the South since
the war. and have called down upon
th5scuho issuedthem the condemnation
of the republican press of the entire
North. though the one referred to, II
noticed at all by the same press, Is
treated as an ordinary news item.
Probably the reason for the difference
is the fact that in the particular case
alluded to the notices were not marked
with a raw head and bloody bones, as
those in the south were, and therefore
did not offend the tender sensibilities Of
northeln republicans.
