The Army Reaches Alliance
With 143 Men.

LOUISVILLE, Ohio. March 27-How
Coxey's army survived the night seems
miracle. Herded together like penned
up cattle, 100 men spent the night in a
room 30 BY 40. The atmosphere could
have been cut with knife and death
might have been caused by asphyxiation.
However they were all on hand at 8
o'clock this morning.
AT that hour here and there could be
seen groups winding their way 10 camp,
ready for bugle call Breakfast was un-
der preparation and three bushels
of potatoes, some cold ham. bread
and sausage were given out All
seemed to be satisfied. Louis
Smith, the Unknown was in command.
From all appearances the army viii re-
main intact, no desertions having taken
place.
On the contrary an increase OF recruits
is expected during the march to Alli-
ance. Coxey and the aids took supper At
the camp last night and returned again
this morning for breakfast The weather
is moderatng and good cheer prevails.
"a reception IS promised at Alliance
from reports received ia camp. The do
nations this morning consisted of one
0vercoat. The sun is coming out in fun
strength and the march promises an inn
prOvement over yesterday.
