Washington, May 1.-Coxey and
Brown we've arrested at noon today or
the capitol steps The commonweal
army was astir early today upon Bright.
Heights with preparations for the pro-
cession to the capitol The men passed
a cold night, many sleeping on the
ground. There was an early breakfast
of eggs, bread and coffee. Tents were
packed into wagons and the army was
aligned before 9 o'clock. All the men
carried staves on which fluttered white
flags with the motto peace on Earth.
Good VIII to Men, but Death to Interest
on Bonds,
Before the start Brown formed the
men into hollow squares and put them
through most remarkable drill. The
slaves were handled like guns, and
when Brown shouted GLORY and
Peace" they cheered three times and
waved the sticks in the air.
The Philadelphia commune, GO men
strong, stood on one side waiting to fan
in. A bass drum doomed and bagpipes
emitted shrill screams. After march
twice around the grounds the men were
drawn up in line and more cheers and
drilling followed. Brown harrangued the
men in the customary street-fakir
strain.
At 1915 the army started for the city.
As the caravan worked its way down
the three-mile stretch to the city It was
a most fantastic array.
When near the capitol Brown halted
the column and dismounted. He and
Coxey then started toward the entrance
IF the capitol, followed by the police.
Before he was recognized he was on the
.enth step of the east front entrance
rhe officers then closed in on him. The
great crowd recognized him, and shout
vent up from every corner. Coxey
urned to the crowd and raised his hat.
He was very pale.
"What do you want here?" asked

The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1894-06-21

Roanoke lost the last game of the
series to Richmond yesterday afternoon.
Several causes contributed to the de-
feat, namely McCoy's wildness In the
first inning, McHoovetsr's muf Of Nor
gan's fly and the failure of the home
team to hit the ball whom hits were
needed.
The fielding Of both sides was good,
thatof Roanoke being brilliant at times.
Cavanaugh put up great game at third
and robbed the visitors of two appar-
emily safe hits. He had nine chances
and accepted them all without an error.
Beside this he made two hits. Smith
also made several difficult catches in
center.
Richmond took the lead in the first.
Kahn and McGann made singles and
Tate was struck by pitched ball, fill
Ing the bases. Foster and Hodge were
retired on fys to Cavanaugh and Nc
Hooveter. Morgan was given his base
on balls, forcing in Kahn, and McGann
and Tate scored on Vests single Ma
pier got his base on balls but Black
ended the inning by striking out.
Kahn led off with two-base hit In the
second and scored on Wild pitch
In the sixth Morgan tailed on base
on balls, Vests sacrifice, wild pitch
and Napier's single. Richmond's last
two runs we're made in the seventh.
After Mccain had famed out to Daniel,
Tate and Foster hit safely. Tate would
have been retired at second had not
Demoss dropped the ball thrown to him
by Smith. Both men advanced a base
on Hodges base on balls and scored
when McHooveter dropped Morgan'a
fly.
Roanoke did not commence the run
getting until the sixth. McHooveter
was retired. McGann to Tate. Then
Crockett got in q single and Smith a
two Dagger. Both men scored on errors
by Napier and Foster. In the seventh
McCoys single and Hodges tumble OF

Frech led off with two. Dagger in the
ninth and scored the only earned run of
the game on similar hit by McHoov-
