Commonwealers May Meet Trouble In ths
District OF Columbia.
WASHINGTON, April 2s.-The commits
sioners of the District of Columbia have
taken action on the impending Coxey
invasion. After long executive SEES
sion and consultation with the attorney
for the district 4 manifesto was pre-
pared. II says the commissioners I'M
derstand that large numbers OF unem
pioyed men are coming to Washington
to make certain demands of congress
The commissioners say the movement (.
Ill considered and appeal TO the CON
monwealers not TO come to Washington
The manifesto continues:
No possible good can come of such a
gathering, and with no proper prepare
tions or means of subsistence suffering
and ultimate disorder will certainly en-
sue. No wrong can be righted, no con
dillon OF labor ameliorated, no remedy
for any existing evil realized by the
contemplated demonstration of physical
force. Every desirable end can be more
certainly and effectively accomplished
by ordinary and lawful methods. The
commissioners, while in entire sympa.
thy with all people out of employment
and having no desire or purpose TO de
harshly with unfortunate but honest
men who seek relief by reasonable and
lawful means, are in duty bound 10 give
notice to those who are tempted under
any pretext to swell the number of un.
employed persons already here that
there is neither work for them nor
means for their maintenance In the dis
trict; that the law does not permit the
soliciting of aims In our streets aud for
bids parades assemblages or orations
In the capitol grounds and the obstruc-
ton of any public grounds, streets, high
ways or avenues and the approaches to
public or private buildings
THE commissioners give notice also
to the criminals and evildoers, who, un-
der cover of a crowd of unemployed
men In our streets, may come for the
purposes of crime and disorder, that all
such VIII be apprehended and sum
marily dealt with.
And finally they give notice to all
who come here against their advice and
protest that the laws in force in the Dis
trict of Columbia are adequate for every
emergency and will be rigidly enforced.

An Attempt at Wholesale Poisoning In q
Railroad Employees Hotel
BUTTE, April 20 Some soulless mis-.
creant is at large la the community to
whom the swiftest and most severe pun.
ishment should be meted out without
delay, for one of the most deliberate
attempts at Wholesale poisoning ever
known in the state.
1t occurred at the st. James hotel on
Utah avenue, formerly known as the
Garrison house and conducted by Henry
Jefferson. The hotel boarders are mostly
railroad men. Shortly after eating
breakfast this morning Mrs. Je rsrson,
the wife of the proprietor, became very
i'll. AS she was In the best of health
Just previous to eating, her husband
became alarmed and summoned a phy.

Montana Central round house, and VIM.
Williams Of McQueenys transfer also
took sick. Upon the physicians arrival
he diagnosed the case and found all the
symptoms of poisoning, with indica.
lions that sulphate of zinc had been the
deadly drug used. Mrs. Jefferson and
Mr.. Scanion were the greatest suffer
ers, but after the administration of a
powerful antidote they felt relieved and
at noon both had recovered sufficiently
to converse.
only those who partook of oatmeal at
the mernipg meal felt the effects of the
poison, and the superstition is that IT
was placed In that dish. The same LOT
Of oatmeal has been used at the hotel
for several days past and the proprietor
of the fotel feels pretty certain that
the poison did not get in by accident.
Mrs. Jefferson ate only oatmeal for
breakfast. Five minutes later she was
attacked with a peculiar sinking feel
ing and the others describe the effects
In the same way. Had not a physician
been available they believe they would

A number OF railroad men who had
breakfast at the hotel left Immediately
AFTER the meal, but whether or not they
were affected in similar manner has
not been learned.
MIR. Jefferson strongly suspects man
VINO quit his employ this morning as the
perpetrator. This man had free access
TO the kitchen and while breakfast was
being prepared he had wordy quarrel
with the proprietor. He immediately
left the house and has not been seen
since. Mr.. Jefferson has lodged no com.
piaint against him as he has no proof
to bring forward that he is the guilty
person. No analysis has yet been made

She Writes Letter in Which the Right
of Carlisle Is Questioned.
New YORK, April 29.-Miss Phoebe
Couzins writes a letter to a local par er
in which she says:
Peuding the discussion of the coinage
of Mexican dollars by the United States
mint, would like to inquire what au-
thority Secretary Carlisle has to direct
the coinage of silver for private pnr-
poses and personal ACKNOWLEDGMENT.
There were minted by his order last
spring some 10000 silver coins of the
vaine OF 20 cents each, to the amount of
$4,000, called the Isabella coin, osten-
sibiy for the benefit of the board of
lady managers, Worlds Columbian Ex-
position, but which was without author
ity OF law, since the budget of the
lady managers, submitted to CONGRESS-.
contained no estimate whatsoever for
these coins. All disbursements In the
sundry civil bill must first be presented

in turn sends the budget to the speaker
OF the house; the speaker submits it to
the house, and the house sends IT to

for discussion it comes back to the
house, Is debated and acted upon.
When President Thomas w. Palmer
of the national commission submitted
his estimate to the secretary last winter
OF 1913 ,l60 for the board of hdy man.
ayers, there was no estimate in the
budget for the minting of any coin
whatsoever. The introduction of this
$4,000 was Illegally interpolated, am
informed, by three members of con-
gress, one In the senate and two In the
house, who, In direct violation of well
known laws of congress, which these

ing of the sundry civil bill 1t never
came before the house or senate regu-
larly, as is required by law, and was
unknown to the majority of the men,
bers Of both houses. 1t is then a mat
ter of public inquiry as to the right of
Secretary Carlisle to coin money in this
questionable method and invest a wholly
unrestrained member of the national
board with the right ad libitum on pub
lie funds.

Some of the statements made by those
who. were present conflict on many
points. The verdict of the jury recon-
mended that the parties who did the
shooting be held to await the action of
the grand jury, which is now in session,
and much speculation is INDUCED in in
