An ARMY OF FOUR,
Including the Commander, Leaves Phil
adelphIa to Join Coxey's Commonweal.

PHILADELPHIA, PA, April 70
Promptly at the appointed time to-day
Christopher Columbus Jones, Division
Marshal of Coxey's Conmonweal Army,
and three recruits started on their
march to join the main body OF the
Commonweal at Rockville, Nd, a small
town about Is miles from Washington.
Marshal Jones came forth from his
headquarters at 1912 Filbert street fol-
lowed by about dozen persons. He
paused on the pavement few moments
and then shouted: "March!" The
first person TO make q move was six
footer bearing badly faded United
States flag. The others faltered mo-
ment The cold, drilling rain had
dampening effect on their ardor and all
but two decided to desert the army.
These desertion had no apparent
effect on Christopher Columbus Jones.
With a small tent wrapped in a shawl
strap in one hand and a map OF the
route to be traversed in the other, the
marshal and his three faithfuls, Secre-
tary T. Mckee, William Phillips and
the big flag bearer, followed by three
or four hundred hooting men and boys
turned into Market street and were
soon fairly on their dreary march. The
army will travel but five miles to-day.
Their first stop will be Darby, small
town on the outskirts OF this city.
Marshal Jones had made great prepare
tions for his army in Darby. A large
hall, the worshipping place OF the
Heavenly Recruits" had been engaged
for Jones' prospective 1,500 followers.
but the marshal now says his little tent
will afford ample shelter for the army.
Captain Clark, who has posed as dime
museum freak, and we'll known char
acter about town, deserted last night
and Aide de camp George Marshall did
not start with the army, but Marshal
will join the ranks late in the day.

Probably Lost

New YORK, April l2.-.Three men
who sailed in the yacht Sudiose, on
Friday from Rockville Centre for Long
Beach, have probably been drowned.
They are Thomas Mack, a wealthy
plumber of 70 Myrtle avenue, Brook
lyn; Carl Ayers, wholesale plumber OF
2l7 Fifth avenue, Brooklyn, who lives
here, and Capt. James Hutchinson OF
the yacht. Jones Inlet, the outlet from
the bay, has been the scene OF many
wrecks. Searching parties have not
been able TO find any trace OF the boat
or men.
Daniel Demott, superintendent OF the
sawmills at Rockville Centre, Long
Island, and his son Robert. who sailed
oceanward in the yacht Joseph, before
the storm began, are missing. II Is
thought that they were caught outside
by the gale and that both have been
drowned. Three duck hunters started
out on Monday afternoon from Freeport,
Long Island, and have not been heard
from since. il is believed that they
have been drowned. IL is reported that
a large sloop yacht was sunk In the

THE Intelligence grows little hys-
terical over the charge made in the
local columns Of the REGISTER that a
great deal Of politics is back Of the
Ohio Valley China Company business.
The hteHigenccr was not charged with
bslpe in the scheme, but It's prompt de-
pial LOOKS as though it felt guilty. The
political charge was made with refer
epcs TO outside newspapers and local
politicians, and the Inteil.gcpccrs is well
aware Of this fact. Is apologies for
not printing the news as the REGISTER
does. but this is quite unnecessary, for
the public knows where to lock for the
most complete news service, local. state
and general, viz: 10 the REeIsrER.
When the InteUiJcRccr gets away
from politics, it says something now
and then TO be commended, as the fol-
lowing, for example;

EVANSTON, WYO., April 12.-At mid

the Commonweal, which had encamped
on the plains OF Utah, eight miles out OF
Ogden, quickly broke camp and capt
ured Union Pacific freight train made
up OF box cars EN- route to the mines.
Gen. Kelly At once assumed command or
the train full of footsore and weary cru
saders. The. engineer and fireman
obeyed orders as issued by the COM
mandaut, as they had instructions TO do
from Superintendent Bancroft, OF the
Mountain division, should one OF the
trains in his division be captured by the
industrial legion. The capture was to-
tally unexpected. Several OF the most
trusted OF Kelly's lieutenants took places
in the cab Of the engine, fearful OF
treachery on the part Of the engineer
and fireman.
The army ought to reach Cheyenne
tomorrow night, barring mishaps and
the side-tracking of the train, which
will undoubtedly be attempted on the
part of the railroad company.
