the procession passed with here and there

that they recognized an army of peace and
were not afraid. From the time the process

D. Ex-PREsIDENT vAsQUEz.
Ne In on His Way to Washing ton and
May See Mr.. Cleveland.


NEW ORLEANS, May 1.-Don Domingo
Nasquez. who was president of Spanish
Honduras until recently deposed by Presi-
Dent Bonilla after a sharp and quite bloody
revolution. has arrived in New Orleans, en-
route to New York. He will visit Wash
tngton to confer with the Honduranean
representatives and very likely with Presi-
dent Cleveland. Altogether he will be in
the United States about three months. He
reclines to say what the business is that
brings him here, but 1t is understood that
u IS to gather body OF fiIibusters, who
will sail from New York for Honduras to-
ward the end of the summer.
Mai e. A Burke. the defaulting state
treasurer OF louisiana, has proved brave
and able soldier in the field. Vasquez said
as had many Of the Americans who had
Fought with him. They had been granted
stxty days to return 70 Honduras and wind
up their business affairs. He believed Mai.
Burke had taken advantage OF that privi-
lege.
The late president was asked what he
thought Of Bonilla's action in FORGETTING
the concessions he had granted to the
Louisiana Lottery Company at Puerto
Cortez. He was much surprised at the
question, and replied that, owing to his
hight from Honduras, he had not learned
that fact earlier. He appeared to be quite
Indignant over the act, and denounced
Bonilla for revoking the grant made by the
honduras congress-, intimating that he
was inspired by an intent to blackmail
the lottery people.

GETTING fMPATIENT.
Democratic Senators Said to be Pre-.
pairing for Closure.

That the rank and file Of the democratic
party In the Senate Is becoming impatient
at the delay in the consideration of the
tariff bill was evidenced yesterday by the
circulation Of a declaration In favor of
closure OF debate. The paper was prepared
by Senator George, and was circulated very
quietly during the afternoon, being handed

scented, some Of the Senators expressing
the opinion that 1t was too early to at
tempt a closure and others declining be-
cause opposed to the principle.
The paper recites that it has become
apparent that the republican opponents
of the tariff are determined 10 resort to
ftlibustering to prevent the proper consld-

mits the signerS to a simple declaration
in favor of closure. 1t makes no specifica-
cation as to how the change shall be brought
about. whether through the presiding OFF,
Ger or the committee on rules, leaving that
point as well as that as to whether it shall
be a modified or an absolute closure to be
decided later.
1t does not appear that the call will be
pressed for the time being, but 1t is to
be handed around quietly as opportunity
presents so as to have the democratic side
and to have Senators committed to it as
far as possible.
Senator Harris said at the close OF the
session yesterday that he was not yet pre-
pared to announce any change of hours for
the daily sessions, but added that he might
have an announcement in that direction to
make before many days.

discomfort that prevailed IN the ranks yes

This was perhaps due to the fact that

At $50 the marshals in charge of the va

less than enlarged editions of the common

earth and good will to men," with various
other Inscriptions significant of the object
Of the movement. These little flags were
attached to the end of square oaken sticks,

Browne shortly appeared upon the scene.

on his left breast was pinned a white
feather, evidently pulled from the flowing
tail of barn-yard chanticleer. One Of the

exhibited once before many years ago when

march and it's route today-the route that
stretched all the way from Massillon, Ohio,

very heroic about 1t. At the Capitol steps
there was a collision with the police.
Browne made a desperate resistance to
arrest. and policemen's clubs were used
upon the Coxeyites who crowded around.
Browne was dragged away under arrest.
CoNey was not violent. He made a de-
mand to be allowed to speak from the
Capitol steps, and this being refused desir-
ed to read protest, but was not allowed TO
do so. Then he was escorted out of the
grounds. This was the end of the scene at
