Coxey's Army Mast BE Careful whe.
I'm Washin9tOn.

I'm Washington.
Washington, March 24.---There is one
circumstance which mny interfere with
the main features of Gen. Coxey's army
announced programme at Washington.
1t has been stated that the object of his
bringing his army here is to assemble It
ON the streets around the capitol on the
LIST of May for the purpose of ilnpressing
its views upon congress. To this 1t will
he necessary to first secure authority
from congress, as there are specific acts
upon the statute books forbidding the as-
semblage of crowds in the capitol or on
the capitol grounds for the holding Of any
sort of public meeting except the sessions
of congress and the assemblages which
are incident to the Inauguration Of
president.
These laws go to the extent of forbid
ding organized parades through the capt.
tol grounds. The law is also very strict
in regard 10 the invasion oft he grounds,
and when the societies are given permis-
sion to march through them they are re-
quiretl to keep strictly upon the walks
and driveways. Only on the occasion Of
inaugurations are the people permitted to
overrun the grounds. There is no place
near the capitol available for Mr..
Coxey's purpose, and if he should be re-
fused permission for the assemblage Of
his followers OH the capitol steps, which
permission can be granted only by
special act of congress, the proceedings
probably would not make so great an
impression upon congress as they nre in
tended to. That the necessary consent
for the use of the capitol grounds could
be obtained for this purpose is consid-
cred extremely doubtful. Congress has
always shown itself very jealous of the
general use of the capitol building and
q hounds and departure in favor Of
Coxey's brigade is almost unlikely The
hia have not considered as board tho
impending invasion of Coxey's army.

Santander, March 22-Another fatAl
accident occurred here to-day, caused oy
an explosion of dynamite. Ever since
the awful disaster that occurred in this
city on the night of Nov. 8, last, whea
the Spanish steamer Cabo Machichaco
was blown up by the explosion of part
of the large consignment of dynamite on

the authorities determined to have it re-
moved. To-day while number of men
were engaged in the work of taking the
dynamite out of the hull an explosion oc-
Cured and several of the workmen wers

KILLED THE CASHIER.

Murder In . Dank In San Francisco
Sun Francisco, March 24.---A man went
intOt he branch office of the San Fran
cisco Savings Union, which IN situated
ut the corner of Market and Polk streets.
He presented n written demand for
money to Cashier William A. Herrick.
The demand was refused, whereupon the
desperate murdered the cashier and fc,l,
hut was captured few blocks away
The rote presented to the murdered CASH
icr read as follows:
mfr. Cashier, Sir: After considering
my deplorable condition, am convinced
that this life is not worth living without
desperate means, and. therefore, I am
resolved to make one more effort to seek
help to sustain my miserable existence.
Should you not comply with my demand,
I am compelled to employ my last remedy
"a bottle of nitro-glycerine-and to bury
myself under the ruins of the building,
blasted to everlasting nothingness. Yours
respectfully,
IA Desperate Man. {"
This note was penned with red ink,
and ut the bottom was roughly skctchcd
n skull and cross-bones. After glancing
at the document Herrick returned it to
the man with shake of the head. The
man quickly drew a revolver and fired,
but his aim was bad. Herri.k seized his
pistol which lay on the desk. The CASH
icr and desperate fired et each other
almost simultaneously. The former
missed, but the lattcr's second shot found
its mark. The bullet passed through
Herrick's heart. At the murderer turned
TO flee Bookkeepcr c. s. Melvin drew u
pistol and sent number of bullets after
him, two of which afterward were dis
covered to have taken effect. The as
st ssin was pursued from the scene by q
large crowd of people and captured. He

for two murders. He was member Of

HIGGINS wnxr ALONE.
PsAAePgast Dose not Aeconpany
Hin late Bternity.

Chicago, March 2A-Thomas Higgins,
the murderer, was hanged alone. Hig.
gins died game. On the scaffold be
kissed a crucifix, and smiling, said ''Gooel
BY" to the priests. His death was ap-
parently painless. As the clatter Of the
falling trap rang through the cell corri-
doris the prisoners raised yell of "Hans
Irendergast," "Hans Prendergast." The
little assassin of Mayor Harrison crawlel
frlther into the corner of his cell, whero
he sat trembling with rage and fear.
Prendergust would have nothing to say
about the hanging, ard seemed overcome
with terror by the sounds accompanying
the execution which he 20 narrowly cs.
capped.
A deputy from the criminal court served
the order of Judge Chetlain on Sheriff
Gilbert, which prevents the execution of
Prendergast until April Q. The insanity
hearing will come up In Judge Chetlain'a a
court to-day. The state will enter upon
the case under protest, but is prepared
to introduce expert testimony to show
that the assassin is at the present time
responsible for his acts. The situation,
as presented by the states attorney, is
that the court had NO authority to issue
stay Of execution, which was equiva-
lent to altering the governors writ, aud
has no Jurisdiction in the case.
Trouble for some one is anticipated IL
It should be found that the murderer is
sane. In that case the state holds that
there il great question as to what legal
method would be neccssnr to put the
rope on the assassin's neck again. and ad-
init that, even should Judge Chctlain u.s.
sumo that authority, the friends Of the de-
fentlant could 60 into another court and
secure writ of habeas corpus releasing
the fellow from custody, Oh the ground
that Judge Chetlain had no jurisdiction,
rnd that the time set for the execution
had passed. The law distinctly states, it
is said, that should the hour for an exc.
cution pass without the fnlfilmcnt of the
law, the sheriff is responsible for the mis-
carriage Of justice. In fact all manner of
legal difficulties are anticipated as re.
guilt of q declaration of sanity, while, on
the other hand. it IL admitted that should
the condemned be ndjudged insane tho
case will end forever.

Washington, March 23.-The reading of
depositions was taken up late yesterday
afternoon. Madeline Pollard was seated
beside her lawyer, Judge Wilson, talking
to him, with smile playing across her
face, and once as she talked she glanced
over her shoulder at the white-haired de-
fendant. Before Attorney Stoll had pro.
ceeded far with his elocutionary effort,
Miss Pollard and her company rose and
glided from the room, interrupting for O
moment the reading. The first deposi-
ton was that Of Sister Augustine, of the
Norwood convent asylum, where Miss
Pollard was at first confined. This sister
had been for years at the convent, did
not recognize Miss Pollard, who had been
1t the convent, and said there had never
been but one Louise Wilson there, and
she gave birth to child there last fall.
The entries on the convent books under
the name of Miss Burgoyne corresponded
with the dates which Miss Pollard and
DR.. Street had given Of her admittance
to the asylum, the birth of the child and
her departure. The name of the child
on the record was NJ. Gertrude Burgoyne.
According to the recollection of the sister
Miss Burgoyne had visited the convent
twice after the child was born. The
child, Marie Gertrude Burgoyne, had died
in July, 1885. When Miss Pollard was
told of this, the sister deposed she had
thrown up her hands and run from the
room, but whcn she returned there was
no evidence of grief in her face. Several
other minor depositions were read and
court adjourned until Monday.
