the governor had company of armed

COXEY'S ESTIMATES.
Asks For Transportation Rates
For 1000 Men.
Bound to Storm the Capitol, Notwith-
standing the Issue of Warning Proc
lamation.

1amation.
NEW YORK, April "a j. S. Coxey
called on L. p. Farmer, passenger COM
missioner of the trunk line, to get rates
for transportation of his army to Wash
ington. Coxey told Mr.. Farmer that he
wanted rates for at least 100, 900 men, pos
Bibly 1,0O0 900. The trip is to be made
about May l. Coxey said that men would
come from as far west as Chicago, ST.
Paul and Minneapolis. Mr.. Farmer could
only give the general vague idea of
what might be done, and Coxey left with
the understanding that the matter would
be placed before the next meeting of the
passenger committee.
Coxey, last night, was shown copy of
the proclamation issued by the district
commissioner of Washington, warning
the industrial armies from invading the
Capitol, and having perused it carefully,
said: my answer to it is this: The
wicked fieeth when no man pursueth. ,"
For the first time since his arrival in
this city the general showed that he was
wrought up, although he outwardly
strove to repress all signs of emotion. 1t
was with forced smile that he said:
'Then my army has struck terror into
the hearts of the president and congress
men,"
"Will you heed the proclamation"
"Emphatically, no."
"If the police arrest yourself and army
what them"
''Let them dare" sn apped the general,
his eyes flashing.
''Will you desist from encouraging
other industrial armies from storming the
Capitol?"
''On the contrary, 1 shall redouble my
efforts to bring every unemployed man,
woman and child to Washington"
"Will not the fear of possible bloodshed
deter your"
81 do not court a resort to arms. but we
will demand our rights, even if it takes
physical strength to prevail. shall not
commit myself to that, but will repeat
my declaration to bring congress to terms
by besieging Washington until justice is
done"
''What if the unemployed starve in 1.-THE
streets of Washington"

us that intended in all seriousnessf"
Certainly, matters will be carried to
that extreme if necessary"
? Coxey made these declarations while on
his way to address the members of the
Peoples Industrial league, where he had
been invited by the state committee OF
the Peoples party. About 500 Populists
were present to hear the general. Many
present were women.
Coxey spoke for over an hour. He
would clasp both hands, and, raising
them above his head, would bring them
down with a sweeping motion. His talk
was chiefly on the demonetization Of gold
and silver, and the millennium that would
be brought about by the passage of his
good roads bill and non-interest bearing
bond bill. He said that he had done
more to stir up American people than
any man since the days of John Brown.
