INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April 9O.-At
meeting Of Frye's commonwealers last
night Col. Aubrey explained what the army
would do when it reaches Washington
Nearly one million men will compose
that army" he said, and when we arrive
there we will say to Congress: Here we
are. Now. what will you do with us?
They will give us something, you can bet
on that, and 1t will be best for them to do
it, A million starving men are liable to
cause trouble, and if they refuse to do any,
thing for US we will take possession of the
Capitol"
At this point the police interfered and
broke up the meeting.
Sympathy With the Industrials.
TACOMA, Wash, April 30.-In case of
trouble only 90 per cent of the 200 marshals
are expected to do their duty because of
sympathy with the commonweal movement
or with the general desire to rid the state
of the army. Through the connivance of
employees and ex-employes of the Northern
racine road the army expects to make up
a train and steal a march on the marshals
In the event of their getting away the en-
trance to the stampede tunnel in the Cas-
cade mountains will be blocked.
A special train Is ready to rush United
states troops here from Vancouver bar
