YANAEE CONTINGENT.
Providence People Give Them a
Fine Feed.

PROVIDENCE. r. l., April 24.-When
the New England contingent of the
Coxey army arrived at Providence this
afternoon they were met at Randall
square by George Ii. Bloomer, editor of
Justice, and escorted through the
main streets to Olney square. Contrary
to expectations, no halt was made at
Olney hall. When Olneyvi!le was
reached the commOnwealerS were taken
to Textile hall, where they rested until
6 O'Clock, when supper was served. 1t
was a repast such as had not been en-
joyed since they left Boston. There
was corned beef, salmon and salads,
sausages. cheese, rye and white bread,
crackers, coffee and all kinds of pie.
After the supper Gen. Fitzgerald acted
as presiding officer and received the
applications of nearly forty men. 1t
was finally decided to reject all appIica-
lions as we'll as the fifteen at Paw
tucket. During the evening mass
meeting was held in Marino flats.
George Rohrman. George Stevens, Rev.
Ii. n. Casson and Edward Tyner. The
army was housed i'll Germania hall,
where they spent the night. Hey
expect to start on their tramp
at IL o'clock tomorrow. Breakfast will
be served at Germania nall, after which
the army will probably go to Scittfate,
eight miles distant. The next important
place is DapvilIc, and then sixty miles
OF small towns to East Hartford. Every
Providence policeman went on duty at
3 O'Clock today, and will remain until
the army leaves town in case of az
emergency.

ARBITRATE OR VACATE.

The public are becoming decidedly
impatient over the arbitrary suspension
of business by the employees of the
Great Northern railroad.
1t is now nearly two days since Gov.
Nelson proposed to the contending
parties that the existing differences be
submitted to arbitration,to the end that
business might be speedily resumed.
The railroad officials promptly met
the proposition of the governor in the
proper spirit, and expressed their will
lngnesS to accept such procedure for a
settlement. AS it is one of the cardinal
principles laid down by all labor organ
iZatiOns that differences between em-
ployer and empioye should be settled 10y
arbitration. it was supposed that the A
II. U. would accept the good Offices of
the governor with alecrity.
Instead of doing so, all day yesterday
was devoted to secret session without
RESPONSE to the governors proposition.
A note to President Hill brought the
prompt response that he would meet
them on thirty minutes notice, but no
further indication of desire for con-
ference was given.
While public sympathy is quite apt to
be against great corporation upon such
occasions as the present, the cause of
the A. r. U. Is rapidly losing all of its
friends outside of Its own immediate
circle.
1t is arbitrarily holding up the bust
ness of the people of five states. and no

rights, but absolutely declining to &C
cept protfered opportunity to secure
its desires.
The position of the men is untenable,
and il this standsiill is continued and
arbitration is refused the consequences
must be upon their own heads. Strong
as their organization may be, it cannot
exist against united public sentiment
OF the people, and that is rapidly crys-
railizjDU

LABOR UNION COMMITTEE
Call Upon Gov. Nelson to Protest
Against Shoe Factory in State


Prison.
A committee of the trades and labor
union men of the shoemakerS' associa-
ton waited upon Gov. Nelson at the
capitol last night, to discuss with him
the matter of the talked-of shoe factory
at the state prison. John D. Fry,
the secretary of the boot and shoe
makers union, acted as spokesman
for the delegation. and Frank Valesch,
of the state labor commissioners office,
was also present.
The latest grievance that the men of
the union have to present has sprung
from the fact that the managers of the
prisiOn, having decided that there is not
enough work for the number of men in
prison, are discussing the Introduction
of new industry-a boot and shoe fac
tory-that would give employment to
about fifty convicts.
The governor discussed the matter at
some length with the men, but informed
them that he could not take any action,
as. according to the law of 1889, all au-
thority in matters relating to the con-
duct of the prison is vested in board
of managers. The present managers
are NJ. o. Hall, Duluth; Edwin Dunn,
Eyota; j, S. O'Brien. Saltwater; Frank
Temple, Blue Earth City, and j. F. Nor
IRISH. of Hastings.
The men of the union say they have
information that local firm has been
making bids and doing all in its power
to receive the contracts TO start a fac
tory. and against this mode OF doing the
work the men protest.

failed to elicit any definite information
as to the probable course of the union in
the direction of arbitration. One of the
members of the committee Of thirty
three was seen at late hour last night,
and asked if the men had decided to
arbitrate Oh the terms proposed by Mr..
Hill. He replied. with significant
smile. that ne was not at liberty to out
line any plans or say what had taken
place.
FORMULATE THEIR DEMANDS.
MI. Debs said last night: 1.-The re-
port published last evening that the
committee was divided, and which
gained currency on the streets, is abso-
iuteiy without truth or foundation. The
committee was unit on all points. and
formulated its statement OF demands.
These will be presented to Mr. Hill
during this morning, and then we shall
he ready for action. There is nothing
more to say at this time. and all we can
do is to wait for results"
What the demands are none of the
officers or members of the A. r. u.
would state i'll advance, and the only
information to be gained was that for
the next twelve hours at least nothing
OF serious nature was contemplated.
The men desire only one thing. restora-
ton OF wages to a living basis. and that,

The spectacle presented to the couE-
try through CoXey's army of the COM
monweal, Gen. Kelly's industrial army
and the New England mob, led by
rank anarchist, is anything but edify-
ing, is anything but the harbinger of
contentment and the assurance of
peaceful conditions. The struggling,
tramping hordeS, Tor the most part
composed of vagabondS, who are max
ing their way, by hook or by crook, ION
to Washington" have produced a con-
dition of things which will require
many long and weary day to restore
to the primitive state existing before
the emeutes were famed into life.
The affair has now gone SO far that it
is not a theory, but condition, which
confronts the public. Of course, at the
beginning it was possible to have
checked the uprising for which the
foundation was laid in Ohio. This
would have been done, had the chief
magistrate of that state had the grasp
and executive force TO meet the occasion.
A serious responsibility rests upon this
man. 1t dates further back than the
fitting out OF Coxey's army at Massillon,
in the county which is the Ohio govern.
or's home. The responsibility goes back
to the days when this man sat in congress
and was at the head of the committee
which built the tariff act of 1890. He
invited the filling of the lobby with rep
resentatives of the manufactures and
the trusts. He babe them welcome. He
nd hot
tom they wanted. They told him, and
he put 1t in the bill. From this incident
sprung the movement which Is now a
vast annoyance, and, no doubt, a men.
ace to the country. A senator of the
United States has asked that a commit
tee be raised to receive the tramping
hosts and listen to whatever they wish
to say. Why not appoint the committee
and hear these men? Why are they not
as much entitled to audience as the
tariff cormorants, the corporations and
trusts who come time and again to de-
mand consideration or interpose objec-
ton to legislation?
The duty OF congress in this juncture
is to meet the crisis fairly and squarely:
to decide upon an infeXible rule that
will kill the lobby. no matter whether
it comes in broadcloth with wine sup
pers. or in rags begging bread. The
right of petition is broad enough, and
ought to be influential enough to indi-
cate to those who sit to legislate for the
whole people, and not for sections nor
special interests, what will best con.
serve the true welfare of the people.
If this view may prevail and be acted
upon. good can come out of the gro.
tesque and unbalanced and mobilize
foray with which the national congress
has Immediately to contend. It will
have tendency to purify and elevate

ton of the Kelly Mob.
ATLANTIC. To-, April "a. = Kelly's
in dustrial army reached here at
O'clock tonight, with Col. Speed and
his followers in the ranks. The day
has been an eyenttul one, Speed hay
ing Deen depOsed and a separation of
the Sacramento and San francisco di-
visions having been effected during the
march with narrowly ayerted internal
war. Speed had refused to obey orders
issued by Kelly. and was promptly
c0urt-martialed and was reduced to the
ranks. The Sacramento division at
once declared it would desert Kelly
and follow Speed. and the temporary
camp just east of Butler was soon a
scene of wild disorder. About 800 de-
clared for Spead, and the men argued
their differences with much profanity
and liberal show of clubs and stones.
A fight was averted, however, by Kelly's
GOODNESS. Before they reached At
lantic the Sacramento division
elected Spead general. and tonight
the men declare their intention to follow
no banner but his. They openly de-
nounce Kelly as having appropriated to
his own use the army's funds, and aver
that they will obey his orders no longer.
Spead has accepted the leadership. but
says that he will march to Washing
ton with Kelly, but not UNI
der his guidance. Henceforth, says
Spead. there will be two armies, alb
solutely distinct, but sharing provisions
and glory. Kelly hopes for reconcile
alton. He said to an Associated Press
representative that he can and will ac-
count publicly for all funds he has
raised, and denies that he has ever
been given more than $1,000. The two
armies will remain in Atlantic until
Thursday morning.

THE COAL STRIKE.
A Move That VIII Tie Up the

PITTsBURG, Pa. April "a. At a
meeting of coal miners held at Lynch
burg today delegates representing 5000
miners who have heretofore not been
connected with the National Min
ers' association. asked that they be
organized and be declared in favor of
strike. This will take out prac.
tically all the Pennsylvania railroad
miners along the Kiskenintis river
Three pits were not repre-
scented at today's meeting. and to-
morrow efforts will be made to bring
these men into line. The strikers claim
that this new move will tie up the West
Pennsylvania railroad entirely within
two or three days, ana as the Penn
Sylyania main line from Altoona east
depends for coal supply on these pits,
tue situation may become emparrasslng
for the whole Pennsylvania system
east. On the other hand the operators
say they have coal enough Oh sidings
to keep them supplied as
long as the strike may last Elsewhere
in this district the situation remains
unchanfied, with both sides watchful at
every point. The coke region is COM
ing into line with The strikers, and the
men claim that the whole region will
be out tomorrow.

the Grand at Minneapolis, in addition
to the METROPOLITAN of St. Paul,

Mr.. Conklin has been in charge of the
Minneapolis Grand ever since it was
opened, in April. 1883. and has had a
most successful career, but other bust
ness and interests so tax his time and
energies that he was DESTROYS to re-
linquish the position.
1t was the most natural thing in the
world for Mr.. Conklin to turn to Mr..
Scott and invite him to take the posi-
ton, as Mr.. Scott has proven himself
one of the most successful and COM
petent theatrical managers in the coun.
try. MIR. Scott took charge of the
st. Paul Grand in 1888, and
after its destruction by fire, with
much enterprise, but at great
disadvantage, he maintained a
theater in Market hall until the Met
ropolltan opera house was erected. The
addition of the Grand to his MANAGE
ment will aid both houses in his charge,
as he will be able to secure better at
fractions for the combined houses under
single contracts than before, even
though a general cooperation has
previously existed.
