ADA1R, Ia., April 26. The Rock Island
officials anticipate serious trouble with
the Industrial army tonight, and depu
ties and railroad people are in state o.
excitement over what it is feared is an
approaching crisis. Over 800 mon OF the
Sacramento division assert they viii
walk no further and announced thev had
determined to ride and ride on Rock
Island train. The Rock Island wired
east and west for additional men, and g
good-sized force OF burly railroAders will
accompany every train that moves TO-
morrow. About 8 p. m. Yardmaster
Hamilton OF the Des Moines road took
several assistants and distributed
through Kelly's camp circular signed
by Division Superintendent Stillwell,
which says in part:
Threats have been made that a
train of this company will be or may
be captured by parties in the so-called
Industrial army or other labor organiss-
tions for the purpose of running the
same over the tracks OF this company.
Notice is hereby given that in case any
seizure occurs and an ottempt is made
to run such train on the tracks OF the
company, for safety of public travel and
our employees the passage of the train
/ will be obstructed, the usual danger Gig
mails displayed at the point OF 0bstruc-
tion, and any train running opposite to
such signals or after this notice, 1t will
be at the peril of the parties operating
| upon the same"
The men clustered around the camp
fires to read the notice, and the air WAS
soon filed with denunciations of the
officials of the road.
Kelly was highly incsnsed over the
action of the company.
"This is an attempt" said he, ''to in
cite my men to riot--to seize train.
That is the railroads only hope. They
must make US lawlsss, or their plans
will fail. We will not seize a train; we
will get it at Des Moines without Hei3-
ure."
Most OF the men said they would do
nothing without orders from Kelly, but
the Sacramento men were sullen and
refused to answer inquiries, merely reit-
Grating that they would walk NO further.
ANITA, Is., April 26.-Kelly was shown
the dispatch this afternoon telling OF
the capture OF the Coxeyitss, aud ex-
pressed satisfaction that the matter was
to get i1to the courts.
THE civil authorities are our only
hope" he said. ''If the federal troops
attempt to interfere with us the sooner
the matter is ended the better. Our
movement is not lawless one. Our
march is not marked by bloodshed. We
will place our trust in the courts and
turn our faces toward Washington"
Rock Island WAS highly pleased when
informed of the capture.
HThis thing must be stopped" he
said. "These mobs will continue 10
form and move toward Washington until
come action is taken to prevent the IN
vasiop, When the federal authorities
awake to a realization OF the situation
thsv will stop the whole business"
HYATTsTowN, Md, April 26.-Coxey
and his followers marched out OF Fred
erick about O'Clock this morning. Inc
old town turned out to see the start.
| Men, women and children hocked on
the streets and at the camp grounds.
Independent drum corps OF Frederick
sceonpanied the Commonwsalers on
their start, The trail today lies over
the Georgetown turnpike. and the
tramp of IL miles from Frederick to
this little hamlet was over the best
roads vet trodden by the Commonweal-
ere. They reached here about O'Clock
and went into camp. The camp iH
named Henrietta, which is the name of
Mrs, Coxey. Supper tonight was tur-
nished from the commissary wagon.
The breakfast tomorrow will come from
the stock supply, and the tramp will
again be taken up for Gaithersburg, nine
miles from here.
WASHINGTON. April 26.-The district
commissioned cast damper over this
local supporters OF Coxey's movement
today by refusing them permission tt
hold open-air meetings. 1t had beeI
expected by the enthusiasts that thesl
meetings would draw converts and casf
contributions to the cause. The Coxey
ties are angered at this refusal.
The event of the day WAS tue adven
OF Citizen George Francis Train, wh'
predicts that we are quivering on tn
biggest revolution the world has eve
seen, and the JEFF Davis matter will no
be a matter in comparison. The au
thorities in charge OF the capitol build

of formally surrendering their authorit
to the District of Colum bia and aekin
, that q eufiicient protection be given b.

t Major Moore of the city police fore
has promised ample renforcements
necessary.
