GETTING TOO DOT

For the Industrials in California.
SACRAMENTO, CAL, April 90
The mayor of the city, trustees,
county supervisors and half Of the
police have been in consultation,
and Capt. Williams has been told
that beyond feeding his $50 men
up to noon today the city would
do nothing for them, as it had its
own poor to look after. The
mayor told Williams he must
take his army out today, or be ar
rested. Williams said he had no
plans for the future, other than
the men will not walk out Of the
city, but will stay here and fight
it out. Chief Drew says if the or
der to move is not obeyed the men
will surely be rrested.

Will Not Strike.

CHICAGO, April 2O.-Through the
firmness of p. NJ. Arthur and Frank
P. Sargent, chiefs respectively Of
the BrotherhoOds Of Locomotive
Engineers and Firemen, the strike
which was threatened on the Chi
cago and Eastern Illinois railroad
today has been averted, and the
Inauguration of the new wage
schedule was. not marked by a
demonstration OF any kind. AL
though the new schedule is not en-.
tirely satisfactory to the men, it is
the best that could be obtained
from the officials of the road by
Chiefs Arthur and Sargent, and in
submitting it to the men, they in
timated that worse would be in
store for them if they did not ac-
cept it, and added that they would
not authorize a strike for better
terms. AS the men did not care to
shoulder the responsibility of a
strike discountenanced by their
own leaders, they decided to sub
NIT.

THREE THOUSAND MORE
Start From Omaha to Join Kelly's
Band.


OMAHA, Neb., April 20.-Three
thousand laboring men marched
out of Omaha today, with banners
flying, bound for the camp of Gen.
Kelly's Commonweal, at Weston,
Iowa, fourteen miles east of Coun-
ell Bluffs. 1t was done upon a
signal agreed upon at last nights
meeting of the Central Labor
union, ringing of church bells and
blowing of whistles, given, an
nouncing Kelly's army still at
Weston, unable to secure a
train for the east. Inside of
few minutes a thousand
gathered, and quickly organized
into companies, with a captain for
every ten men. The column pro-
ceeded to the City hall, and
countermarched, receiving recruits
at every corner, until there were
three thousand in line. Each COM
pany was provided with an Ameri-
can flag, and as fast as recruits
joined were formed into
companies and were provided
with banners. The superintendent
Of the bridge gracefully granted
free transportation over the Mis-
souri, river, which otherwise would
have been forcibly secured. Thou
sands of people followed the col
umn to the bridge, and many other
thousands were on hand, on the
other side of the river, to welcome
them. The cold seemed to have
good effect, bringing out a greater
thrOng than was expected last
night. All seemed to be in excel
lent spirits, and determined to
march, and mean business. The
column is preceded to Council
Bluffs by committee Of promi-
nent citizens, appointed at last
nights meeting of the Central La
Dor Union, including the pastors of
leading churches, to call on Gov
ernor Jackson and the managers
Of railroads to urge that the Com
monwealers be at once started
east. Gen. Kelly had a conference
with President st. Johns, Of
the Rock Island railroad.
st. John said that he was
not in a position, if he desired
to furnish a train, as the matter
was now wholly in the hands Of the
presidents of Iowa trunk lines, and
no one road could grant a request
for train unless the presidents Of
all the other lines agreed. Gen.
eral Kelly then called on other
friends for advice. One prominent
man suggested that army levy on
the farmers for horses and wagons,
split up into squads Of a hundred
men each, and spread out over
stretch Of territory 20 miles wide
and march on foot across the state.
Kelly agreed to call a council OF
his officers and place the plan be-
fore them. After deliberation IL
they agreed to it, the plan would
be adopted. General Kelly
later left for Council Bluffs.
1t is said some of the Anarchists
column, marching out Of Omaha
had some dynamite with them,
but how much is not known.

Six Thousand Crossed the Bridge

OMAHA, Neb., April pa
strange scene was witnessed on
march the bridge to the heart OF
Council Bluffs. Men and boys
seemed to spring up from the
ground, and the column
which crossed the bridge had
grown to over 5000 men
by the time it had
reached the heart of the city. The
