There Are Rumblings Of Discon-
tent in "Coxey's Own"
GAITHERsBURG, Md, April 27.-The
journey of the army today, though over
good roads. was made more than usually
weary because Of the succession OF high
hills and deep valleys. A halt was made
for ten minutes at Clarksburg. In re-
sponse to a request by orc of the spec
tators, CoXey made ten-mihute
speech. AT Green Center, when lunch
was had, Coxev spoke again. The
tramp was resumed. and without in
cident the army marched in here at
o'clock and went to camp. There are
rumblings Of discomfort in the army, aud
there are predictions that the army.
though it seems scarcely probable, may
go to pieces before Rockville is reached.
Hard tack and coffee alone for two days
is evidently causing some grumbling.
There have been some happenings at
Rockville today. "Unknown" Smith is
down there with about twenty-five fol-
lowers, who left Coxey's ranks back on
the trail when CoXey depOsed Smith
and re-estabiished Browne. They are
in camp ON the fair grounds at Rock
vile, whittier Coxey marches his men
tomorrow.

THE bogus FIGURES.

The suddenueSs with which Mr., Nc
Cardy and his organs have dropped sta
tlStcs relative to the reduction of the
city debt by the present administration
is amusing.
McCardy's statement to Treasurer
Miller that ut will read weli'' was ONLY
verified for day or two.
1t does not read so well now since the
mask has been stripped off and it has
oeen proven that the claim is false, and
that only by the chicanery of paying one
lot OF city certificates by Issuing others,
and not counting the last lot. was there
any basis for the figures.
The debt has been reduced 1900. it
Is true. but it was done by stealing the
money from the reserve school fund.
Possibly If the "reformers" could
ind enough to steal, they would pay
the whole debt.

PASSED THE LIE,
Exciting Scene in the House Of
Representatives.


WASHINGTON, April 27.-The usual
monOtoDy of tue Friday nights session
was broken tonight when the members
were in a rancorous temper, the lie
was passed. and TWO members were
called to order for unparliamentary
language. Mr. Talbert (Dem., S. C.),
who has been trying for several weeks
to get into the Record a series of arti-
cles Oh the subject of pensions. repeated
his attempt tonight. All his requests
were refused. Mr.. Picker, of South
Dakota. was particularly determined in
his opposition. Both gentlemen showed
signs of temper.
''Fhat is the most slanderous attack
on Union soldiers ever published" ;" said
Mr.. Picker.
''The gentleman is talking about
something he knows nothing about"
shouted Talbert.
The gentleman from South Caro-
lima" continued Mr.. Pickler, ''is onlv
tIyiDg to SANDER Union soldiers"
II deny it." said Mr.. Talbeft loudly.
shaking his fist. 1.-The gentleman has
uttered falsehood pure and simple"
Instantly dozen members on the Re-
publican side were Oh their feet, and
MIR. Hepburn called Mr.. ralbert to order
and demanded that his words be taken
down. They were read flom the clerks
desk. and after some wrangling
MIR. Talbert was given permis-
sion to explain. Mr.. Talbert
began his explanation by stating that
he was sorry he was Obliged to say what
he had, but il was true. He would with
draw what he had said. however, If Mr..
Picker would Withdraw his re-
marks. The tone of the South
GaroIinan's explanation did not
seem to suit Mr. Baker (Rep., N. H..
who declared the explanation fully as
offensive as the original language, and
he again called Mr.. Talbert to order.
At this iuncture there was an eff
fort to pour oil on the troubled
waters, and. on motion, Mr.. Tai
He had no further explanation to make,
however, and took his seat, when Mr.
Picker arose and made a statement
which again kindled the flames of par
tisanship. The paper which printed
these articles, he said. was continually
siandering and villifying the soldier.
1.-The gentleman from South Caro-
lima" he added, turning to Mr.. TaIbert.
3'thas slandered and villitied them every
Friday night. That is his object, and I
hold it in utter contempt"
Mr. Livingstone Dem., Ga.) jumped
to his feet and called Mr.. Picker to or
der. After his words had been read
from the clerks desk, Mr.. Martin. of
Indiana, moved that Mr.. Picker be per-
mitted to explain.
II don't want to explain" shouted
Pickler. II stand by what said, and
have nothing to take back.''
at this point the counsel of cooler
heads prevailed. The members were
recalled to the bill before the house.
The excitement subsided, and without
further incident the house proceeded
and disposed of nine pension bills. five
of which were favorably acted upon.
The point of no quorum was then made,
and, after calf0f the roll, the house at
1880 adjourned.

SHALL THERE BE FUSION?
The Democrats OF North Dakota
Not Agreed Upon 1t,

NOT agreed upon 1t.
FARGO, n. D., April ~. The Demo-
cratic state central committee met to-
day to arrange for the coming campaign.
Andrew Blewett, Jamestown, was
elected chairman, vice ID. W. Maratta
resigned. Grand Forks was selected as
the place and July 26 the date for hold
ing the state convention. The subject
of fusion with the Populists was dis
cussed at great length, arguments aris
ing from motion to appoint commit
tee to meet committee named by
the Popuiists, and arrange a basis
of fusion. This was opposed
by some members, who objected to be-
ing swallowed by the Pops" Finlay
Grant, secretary of the railroad com.
mission, announced that though the
Populists were confident of winning
alone. they were willing to concede the
supreme judgeship to the Democrats.
Senator Kinter aud others objected to
any terms of fusion which did not give
the Democrats congressman, secretary
of state, the judgeShip and the attorney
general. Finally it was voted to have
the chairman appoint a committee, who
were TO be cautioned to use the greatest
prudence, and secure for the Democ-
racy a just share Of the offices or none
at all. Resolutions embodying the usual
expression OF sentiments on current
political affairs, and also resolutions of
regret at the death of Judge O'Brien,
were passed.
The resolutions are wholly directed to
congress, rebuking the Democratic ma
jority for its inactivity at this time when
the country so much needs prompt leg
islative action. They close:
We believe that every member of that
body (tiie senate) today knows how he
would vote as we'll as he will at the end
OF months of further debate. We ask
that distinguished body to act and, the
Democratic party having a majority,
we ask that majority to force vote,
even at the expense of senatorial tradi-
ton. We believe that every day of
delay is fraught with disaster to our
party. The traditions of the senate are
but forms. The rights of the American
people alone are sacred, We call upon
every Democrat i'll congress to abandon
the Scuff1e of local interests and to re-
gard the interests Of the whole country
and their pledges to the American
people.

STOPPED AT ST. CLOUD.

ST. CLOUD, Minn., April 27.-At 7:20
this morning, mogul engine 467, engi-
neer Maher, fireman Bauer, with forty
loads. pulled into the yard, having LETT
Big Lake at $50. The train was in
charge of Conductor John Pinion. and
Chief Deputy BeauIieu and eleven as
sistant marshals were mounted Oh top
of the cars, and expected trouble. The
strikers had been watiug in the yard all
night. epecting freight every hour.
The train pulled into the west end of the
yard and stopped on account of two box
cars run out Oh the same track. A
crowd soon gathered, but there was no
violence. The company was unable to
secure brakemen to take the train on
west of here, though the balance of the
crew is ready and willing to go. 1t is
very unlikely that the train can be
started out with Fergus Falls division
men. If the train gets out eighteen
deputies will accompany it.
There are no new Developments to-
night, nor further attempt to move the
freight for the west.

DoRAN AS AN ECONOMIST.

-
When Doran is not selling wood to
the city he poses as an economist.
Here is the way it works:
Last, year the council passed a resolu-
tion directing the building inspector to
reduce his force and salaries.
1t was that resolution which led to the
SIS Franklin exposure.
MIR. DOrau evidently thinks the build
ing inspector should not have a right to
reduce salaries even if he wished to,
for here is the resolution he offered
March %, when lie had gotten his friend
elected as Inspector.
Resolved, That that certain resolution
approved Nov. 8. 1888, being Assembly
File No. 1882, which requested and di-
rected the building inspector to reduce
the force and salaries in his Office so
that the monthly pay roll Oh and after
Nov. shall not exceed s575, be, and the
sanie is hereby in all things repealed.

HELENA. Mont. April 27.-The con-
servative advice of Judge Knowles. of
the United States court and local coun-
sci of the Northern Pacific. has pre-
vailed, and all danger from the CoXey
army in this quarter is avoided, for
while, at least. Acting on the ad-
vice of Judge Knowles and
ex.-Gov. Toole, counsel for the road.
the Northern Pacific people in the East
have consented not to rush matters in
connection with the men who ran off
with the train. The United States
court is now in the midst of criminal
trial, and other similar trials are await
ing their turn. To bring the en-
tire captured army back for trial
would consume the time of the court for
an indefinite period. The plan agreed
upon is 10 select number of leaders,
just how many it is not yet decided. and
bring them here next week
some time for whatever action
the United States court may see
tit. The balance of the army will be
kept at Fort keogh in charge of the
soldiers of the Twenty-second regiment
until further orders. When the excite
ment of the past week has quieted down,
the rank and file may be sent about
their business in detachments, not in
body. Everything is quiet throughout
the state now, and things have resumed
their normal aspect.
