just outside the city limits and when the
small gang appeared they drove them
away with shovels and picks.
Actual trouble began over the digging
of trenches east of the city limits, and
riot, bloodshed and death resulted. The
attitude of the Poles being SO threaten

withdraw his workmen peacefully when
the men suddenly rushed upon Foreman
Joe Cathery and assaulted him with
picks.
At this time Sheriff Collins stood ad-
dresting one section of the mob, while
Deputy Steyskal addressed another sec
tiQn. Suddenly there was rush with
uplIfted picks and shovels and second
later the revolvers began to pop and
everything was in the widest confusion.
About fifteen men were laying pipe
and the crowd rushed upon them They

One long day of floating through the
beautiful picturesque hill country In
northwestern Maryland was all that the
Coxey navy had to chronicle today in its
long book. The two barges secured by
COxey for the canal trip from Cumber-
land to Williamsport moved out fully
loaded from the head of the Chesapeake
and Ohio canal basin at noon, with Coxey
in command of one and Carl Browne COM
manding the other from the forward
deck.
The trip was uneventfuL At all the
locks and settlements Browne stopped to
distribute his pamphlets, but there was
no meeting of importance and the chief

OMAHA STIRRED UP
Over the Action of IOwa's Governor
Denounced by Commercial Club

Over the Action of IOwa's Governor
Denounced by Commercial Club
OMAHA, April 18.-Kelly's army is
still at the old Chautauqua grounds east
of Council Bluffs and the situation is
dangerous one. The men are wet the
skin and chilled to the bone and the
Iowa militiamen still surround them
with fixed bayOnets and keep them from
the shelter of the buildings. There are
rumblings in the ranks of the common
wealers, but discipline has thus far been
maintained by the officers.
There was enough food on hand for
breakfast today, and that fact, perhaps,
prevented an open outbreak But some
thing must happen soon to relieve the
tension, or violence will be sure to fol-
low.
LabOring men of Omaha and Council
Bluffs are greatly in sympathy with the
army of the industrials and much indig-
nation has been expressed at the treat
ment accorded the travellers by Governor
Jackson Of Iowa and the authorities of
Council Bluffs. Meetings to express the
Indignation felt were called today by
the Knights of Labor in both Omaha
and Council Bluffs. The meeting in
this city was held in front of the New
York life building on Farnum street, and
a crowd Of probably 500 laboring men
were on hand.
Many speeches were made denuncia-
tory of the Iowa officials and the rail-
IOduS anu OHerS OF alQ were numerous.
One man declared that if something was
not done at once to carry the common
wealers east he favored securing re-
cruits in Omaha and arming them and
marching them against the Iowa militia
now preventing the army from capturing
q train.
he offered TO purchase 1000 rounds of
ammunition at his own expense to arm
those who might enlist. The crowd had
by this time become very demon
strative and the police summariIy
broke up the gathering. The Knights
Of Labor have called other meetings
for tonight The Omaha Commercial
club today through its officials, made
threat to boycott the railroads that are
refusing to carry the Kellyites eastward.
As the result of the indignation meet
ing at Council Bluffs, Gov. jackson at
noon ordered the militia to break camp
at the Chautauqua grounds and return
to Council Bluffs. This leaves the in
dustrials free to march east on foot. or to
capture train if one comes along.

INDORSED BY GROVER.

a New SeIgniorage Bill Which the Pres
ident Approves.
WASHINGTON. April 1S.-Mr. Bland's
coinage committee met today for the first
time since the silver seigniorage strug-
gle and were treated to a genuine sur
prise. Representative Meyer of Louis
lana, was present to urge his bill for
coming the seigniorage and for low in
terest bonds. and he stated authorita-
lively that the measure had the approval
and was in part suggested by
Secretary Carlisle, and, in the judgment
of the secretary, would be signed by the
president
To this extent the bill was regarded as
an administration one, and as satisfacto-
rily overcoming the objections of Mr..
I -Cleveland's veto of the Bland bill The
bill, Mr.. Meyer explained, provided for
the coming of the seigniorage, and so
amended the resumption act that per
cent bonds would in future be issued in
lieu of the AZ and per cent bonds
After discussing the measure, Mr..
Harter asked: "Is it to be understood
that this bill is satisfactory to the secre-
tary of the treasury and in his judgment
will be approved by the presidentf"
Mr.. VI eyer answered: 'tYes, / can say
that the bill was submitted to the secre-
tary and it meets his approval and in his
judgment it will fully meet the views of
the president and receive his signature" !"
ME- OluSley 0ApItSSeu lis -SuI PRISE dt
this, as he said the objections of the
presidents veto would not be met by the
low rate bonds of the Meyer bill.
Mr.. Meyer added: 81 did not wish to
revive the silver question if It was likely
to result in fruitless discussion and an
other veto. The bill was therefore sub
mitted to Secretary Carlisle with the sug-
gestion that did not wish to introduce
it unless there was some assurance of its
approval.
"Mr. Carlisle considered it several
days ago and suggested several changes.
From these the present bill was framed
which, in the opinion of Mr.. Carlisle,
will be broad enough to meet all contin-
gencies. l can therefore state authori-
tatively that it meets the approval of the
secretary of the treasury and the judg-
ment will be approved by the president"
The measure was discussed by the
committee. but no conclusion was reach
ed uDOn it

The injunction was also asked for on

ence with interstate commerce.

of the commonweal of Christ have been

more pleasant than the past, owing to
the wonderful harmony existing among
US, owing to your discarding a discOrd-
ant element For the first time since
leaving Massilion we left camp on time"
The order referred in fiorid terms to
the generosity of the people of Cumber-
land and the mayor and sheriff in partic-
ular.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, April 1S.-A tele-

after the closing of the telegraph office
at that place, says:
No. g. through passenger train going
west met with the same fate the Will
mar train last evening. After it was
brought out of the depot it was side-track-
ed on reaching the switch, and in short
time the cars were uncoupled, the mail
and other coaches being showed down
the sidetrack and mixed with box cars.
The Wilmar train still remains on the
track or orders of Supt Wright and the
mails have not been moved, it being the
general opinion that they will be obliged
to stay here.
President Foster addressed the crowd
at the yards stating that the mail cars
were not held by the American Railway
union, but if by any one, it was the Great
Northern Railway company. Matters
have quieted down and it is thought that
the company will not attempt to run any
more trains.
