COXEY's GRAND ARMY.
1t Is Composed Mostly of Non.
Resident Tramps.

TOPEKA, Kan, March 4-There will
be big delegation from Kansas to join
Gen. CoXey when he starts on his grand
march to Washington. Already the
movement is taking root in several of
the towns and cities OF the state, where
there are many men out of employment.
At Nickerson, Newton, Hutchinson,
Emporia, Arkansas City, Goodland,
Horton, Bellevue, Argentine and Topeka
there are several hundred men who
have formerly been employed by the
various railroads, but who have been
discharged on account of hard times.
Many OF these men are without money,
but the percentage who will join in a
crowd 10 go with CuXey to Washington
is small. The class that proposes to
take the trip to Washington are gener-
ally tramps who came into the state
because of Gov. dwellings, famous

THE LEHiGH SOLVENT.
It Pays Creditors in Full in Eleven
Months.

CHICAGO. March 4.-The Lehigh Coal
and Iron company. which went into
receivers hands in April. 1898, has been
declared restored to solvency. United
States Circuit Judge jenkins at Milwau-
kee last evening entered an order dis
charging the receiver and directing
thai the estate be returned to the cor
poration. The company failed for ST.
25Q.0O0. Under the direction of Judge
jenkins it has transacted a business of
S6.00o,0o0 during the past year and is
able to pay all its creditors in full. In
April of last year the financial world
was astounded by the assignment of a.
u. Yates, president of this company and
also of tie Buffalo, Rochester 81 Pitts
burg Railroad company. The
Lehigh company was carried
down; II. Ii. Warner suspended
and half a dozen coal companies
went into the general wreck. Vice
President l.. K. Doty was elected presi-
dent to succeed Yates, and when The
failure occurred Judge Jenkins ap-
pointed him principal receiver. He now
resumes the presidency. When the re-
ceiver was appointed Judge jenkins
issued rigid order providing for the
closest supervision of all his work by
tie court; in fact, requiring that no
important transaction should be made
without his approval.
The settlement of so heavy liability
in-such brief time as eleven months"
said an attorney connected with the
case, lis III itself remarkable. The
operation becomes more so when it is
considered that creditors are paid IN
full, and that result has been achieved
practically by the United States court"
