DISCOVERED RED oCHRE.
An Inexhaustibls Suppiy Found on
Farm Near RepyiIie Mimi

An Inexhaustibls Sapply Found ou--a
Farm Near Renville, MINI.
RENvLLE, MIMI, April 19.-Great
excitement exists in the township of
Sacred Heart, in this county, on ac-
count of the discovery of an immense
paint mine ON the farm of Mr.. Hedge
son. Some prospectors We're looking
for asbestos when they ran on to indi-
cations of paint, and, upon going down
three feet, were very much surprised
and delighted to find their expectations
realized by uncovering a splendid de-
post of red ochre. The bed appears to
be inexhaustible, and in some parts is
from three to IA feet deep. Mr.. Hedge
son is not very wealthy man, and is
now nearly crazy over the find, as he
considers that it will make rich man
of him.
The craze has spread to his neighbors,
who are neglecting the requirements of
the farm to prospect what they hereto
fore considered worthless land. Every
piece of mica that the unipitiated farmer
runs onto he thinks is chunk Of gold,
and at once posts off>to the nearest sex
pert, only to have his bright dream of
golden wealth shattered by laugh and
the information that he has good
specimen Of rysite or, mica as the case
may be. The impression prevails, how.
ever, that the valley of the Minnesota
has considerable hidden wealth.

MUCH INDIGNATION
Meetings at Omaha and Council Bluffs
to Protest Against Treatment
of Coxeyites.
The Action OF Governor Jackson In
Calling Out Militia Especially
Condemned.
As a Result Of the Meetings Troops
Were Withdrawn and the Army
May Proceed.

OMAHA, April 19.-Laboring men
holding meeting in front OF the New
York Life~>bussdins to denounce the
treatment accorded Kelly's army were
dispersed by the police. One OF the
speakers announced that he would fur
nish 1900 rounds of ammunition to
clean out the Iowa militia.
Violence Likely to Follow.
Kelly's army is still at the old Chau-
tauqua grounds, east of Council Bluffs.
and the situation is dangerous one.
The men are wet to the skin and chilled
to the bone, and the Iowa militiamen
still surround them with fixed bayonets
and keep them from the shelter Of the
buildings. There are rumblings in the
ranks of the common wealers, but disci-
pline has been thoroughly maintained
thus far by the officers. There was
enough food on hand to last for the day,
and that was what perhaps prevented
an open outbreak. But something must
happen soon to relieve the tension or
violence will be sure to follow.
Laboring men of Omaha aud Council
Bluffs are greatly in sympathy with the
army of industrials, and much indigna-
ton has been expressed at the treat
ment accorded the travellers by Gov
ernor jackson of Iowa and the author
titles of Council Bluffs. Meetings to ex-
press the indignation felt are called for
by Knights of Labor, in both Omaha
and Council Bluffs. The meeting in
this city was held in front of the New
York Life building on Farnham street,
and crown of probably 500 laboring
men were on hand.
Denunciatory Speeches.
Many speeches were made denunci-
atory of the city officials and, of the rail-
roads, and offers of aid were numerous.
One man declared that if something
was not done at once to send the COM
monwealers east he favored procuring
recruits in Omaha, arming them and
marching them against the Iowa militia,
now preventing the army from captur-
ing tram. He offered to purchase
1900 rounds of ammunition at his own
expense to arm those who might enlist.
The crowd had by this time become
very demonstrative, and the police SUM
marily broke up the gathering. The
Knights of Labor have called meetings
for the evening. The Omahas Commer-
cial club, through it's officials, made a
threat to boycott the railroads that are
refusing to carry the Kellyites east
ward.
Ordered Militia to Break Camp.
AS the result of the Indignation meet
ing at Council Bluffs, Governor Jack
son at noon ordered the militia to break
camp at the Chautauqua grounds and
return TO Council Bluffs. This leaves
the industrials free to march on foot or
capture train if one comes along.

. ST. LOUIS, April 19.-The local brew
cry pool has been broken by the with
drawal of the Anheuser-R Busch and
Lemp breweries. The National Brew
cry Workers union was instrumental
in bringing about this result. The pool
has been the one bar in the fight of the
union against the syndicate breweries,
and ever since the boycott was placed
upon all the breweries of the city except
the Anheuser-Busch and Lemp brewer
les, every effort has been mado to induce
these breweries TO withdraw from the
pool and furnish beer to all the saloon
keepers who desire it.

BUTTE, Mon, April 19.--The situation
here is unchanged. Director James
Hogan is continuing the strike at this
point and is in receipt of many tele-
grams from employees of the Northern
Pacific, endorsing the American Rail-
way union and condemning the action
of Chiefs Brainerd and Clark of the old
department railroad organizations. The
company's local agent met Hogan and
produced telegram signed by Clark
of the Order of Railway Trainmen, and
Brainerd, chief of the Order of Railway
Conductors, asking strikers to allow the
difficulty to be settled through old or
ganizations. Hogan replied that the
matter would be adjusted by the Rail-
way union only, and all other organiza-
tions would be ignored. Hogan is very
indignant at the action of Chiefs Brain
erd and Clark, whose only motive, he
says, is keeping up their organization
in order to retain their official position
and salaries.
