New Orleans, April 2S.-Fire started
about II o'clock tonight in the kitchen
OF the st. Charles hotel on st. Charles,
Gravier and Commerce streets.
From the kitchen it assembled through
a back elevator to the upper stories OF
the building.
The progress of the flames was so
rapid that the Commerce street side
of the third. fourth and fifth stories,
was soon in flames, and before the oc-
cuPants. the guests and servants could
be moved.
Every effort was made to awaken all
the occupants, but the flames drove
the firemen and others back. Several
persons We're seen at a window on the
fourth floor, facing on Commerce street,
apparently in flames, crying for help.
Ore OF them, man, sprang
from the window, falling on the
pavement on his head and dash
ng out his brains. His Clothes
were burned from him and the body
vas black with burns. What became

burned 10 death, it is impossible to say,
and VIII not be known until the ruins
are searched tomorrow.
The dead man was burned beyond re-
cognluon, and il was impossible to say
whether he was 2 guest or servant.
Ladders were placed against the win
dows on the lower floors, and several
women We're taken down, many of them
in faining condition.
Another man who sprang from a win
dow was instantly killed. His name
and residence are unknown.
Loss Half n Million.

Charles street. uninjured. so that the
trunks and baggage Of the guests were
mostly saved, as well as the goods in
the stores on St Charles street.
The hotel had quite a number of
guests, how many can rot be stated.
Most of them were in the front rooms
and escap ped.
The hotel was built in 1856 at a cost
OF a million dollars, and for years was
the finest in the south. It looks now
as though il would be a complete loss.

and others on the railroad track. The
men were weary and footsore on the
twenty-mile journey from Stuart, but
were determined to go ahead and urged
Kelly to lead them on. Camp was made
in a grove half a mile from town and
on Coon river.
The cool. clear water looked refresh
ing, and within fifteen minutes 500 men
were shouting and splashing in the
stream. After the swim, supper was
served and the men lolled about on the
ground resting for the tedious tramp.
Kelly wired the Des Moine5 recep-
ton committee to send out wagons to
meet the army during the night. He
said he would make the city by 3
o'clock in the morning and thus give
his men time to rest and prepare for
the reception they expect to receive
from the laboring men there.
The night march was as interes ting
to the people along the route as it
was wearying to the men, and all night
long little crowds gathered to see the
unique procession go by. The Rock
Island railroad ran all of their en-
gines out of Des Moines today and will
keep the yards there as clear of roll
ling stock as possible while the army
remains there.

Arrived at Rockville.

Rockville, Nd, April 28.-The Quaker
crowd greeted, with three cheers, the
arrival of the original Coxeyites this
afternoon. Then the Jones contingent
stepped in and the entire column moved
into the town, and the first junction of
CoXey's armies had been made. Moth
ing had been seen of unknown" Smith
and his contingent, until down the main
street there came out from the curb a
sound of kissing. Marshal Brown was
just then passing and the Kissing was
for him, and they came from dozen
of Smiths men, who sat on the grass
along the edge of the street. Brown
turned in his saddle and glanced at the
men kissing him, but the instant he
recognized them he put his face
straight ahead and gave no further
heed.
eve want to go into Coxeys army -
shouted one Of the disaffected ones, as
CoXey rode past.
Brown led the united forces to a
pretty slope, and while yet mounted,
he addressed them thus:
I'VE are now united with the first
commune of our brothers, and 1 want
to give you fair warning. You must
conduct yourselves with caution, for
officers will run you in on the slightest
preteXt. 1t would be too bad if, after
all the priVationS you have suffered,
any one of you should lose the great
est honor ever enjoyed by a citizen,
and that is to march up Pennsylvania
avenue on the first day of May to
assert your rights as American free
men. You are now dismissed for the
day"
During the afternoon, "Unknown''
Smith marched his men over the fair
grounds and went through a break in
the fence. They were stopped by Ok
lahoma Sam and told to get out, which
they did. Then Smith sought out Brown
in his tent, but was repulsed and order
ed off the premises. The Coxeyites
yelled, You are a traitor; chuck him
out" and Smith thereupon relinquish-
ed his project of camping with the
main body. The regulars start fol-
Brightwood at o'clock tomorrow
morning and expect to be there before
noon.
Coxey has received from Alfred Love
PRESIDENT and Charles Kaiser, vice
president, of the Universal Peace union
in Philadelphia, a letter expressing
sympathy with the movement, but urg.
ing that great care be taken to pre-
serve the peace.

NOW AT THE CAPITAL.
COxey's Crew Arrived in Washing
ton This Morning.

Gaithersburg, Nd, April 2S.-Coxey's
commonwealers slept last night with
little shelter. Their breakfast was hard
tack and coffee. Since Thursday the
men have eaten naught save hard
crackers. Much grumbling is heard.
We rely upon public support in this
moment" said Coxey. IF the enter
prise is not maintained by the people in
whose interests it is, then it must fail.
Within two or three days a proclama-
ton will be issued, presenting the situa-
ton and calling for help. We intend
not to stop our insistence upon action
by Congress in behalf of the unem-
ployed."
Coxey regards the talk of interference
as absurd. The army is to be moved
Sunday morning to Brightwood park,
Washington, where admission will be
charged all visitors. The receipts will
go toward maintaining the camp. In
the absence of the chief and Carl
Browne, who went in advance to Rock
vile, Coxey's son Jesse is in command
of the army today. The days journey
is only five miles to Rockville.

Prompt Work.

Tuesdays mail from Salt Lake city
brought to the Springville bank the
Home Fire Insurance company's check
for $1,000, payable to the order OF Mr..
NJ W. Molen, of Mapleton. This check
represented the full amount of Mr.. Mo-
len's insurance in his recent disastrous
fire, by which his house, furniture and
wearing apparel were completely de-
stroyed. The insurance company has
settled with conmendable promptness,
and we learn that the loss would have
been paid before, Mr.. Whitney, the ad-
juster. visiting Springville for that pur-
pose, two days after the fire occurred,
but Mr.. Molen was unable to find the
builders who could make a proper esti-
mate of the exact damages he sus-
tanned until now. Prompt settlements
like this are characteristic of the Home
company, and form one reason why
the people prefer to do business with
it-Springville Independent.

Anamosa, Ia, April 2S.-Clement
Gutierrez. a member of the famous
Cara gang of revolutonists, completed
his one year term in the Anamosa pen

He left at once for Laredo. Mexico.
There are eight others of the Cara

These convicts are the leading officers
