ONE HUNDRED GO WEST.
Gov. Browns New Policy Regarding
the Coxeyites.

One hundred Coxeyites who went 20 sleep
In the cells of the Maryland house of cor
rection on Saturday night will arrive In
Cincinnati today, after having Travelled tine
distance In two comfortable cars of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad at the ex-
pense of the state of Maryland. The idea
OF sending these men out of the state origi-
mated With Gov. Brown, who personally
got them out of the house Of correction
early yesterday morning and took them
to Baltimore. They left for Cincinnati in
charge of several of the detectives of the
Baltimore and Ohio railroad. No one knew
of Gov. Browns intention until late Sat
urday, when he notified the railroad off,
Gals that he would like 10 have an engine
and two Cars at his disposal at Camden
station about midnight. At that hour Gov.
Brown was at the depot, and the special
pulled out for Bridewell.
Upon the arrival OF the train, Gov. Brown
had an interview with Superintendent Jesse
Moore, and told him that he was there to
take away all of the men who lived in the
west The list of names was carefully gone
over, and IL was found that one hundred
of Coxey's followers claimed the west as
their homes. Then began the task of wax
ing up the men. They seemed overjoyed to
think that they were to be released from
prison walls.
The best of order prevailed, and the men
whistled and sang. At O'Clock every
thing was in readiness, and. with Gov.
brown at the nead, the men marched down
10 the train.
The Cincinnati train left Camden station
at O'Clock In the morning. and attached tc
1t were the cars bearing the Coxeyites.
Gov. Brown Instructed the officers in charge
that the men were to be furnished with
sandwiches and coffee at every convenient
place. When they heard this bit of news
some of them almost went in ecstaces, and
as the train rolled out of the roundhouse,
the men gave three hearty cheers for the
governor.
Gov. Brown said last night that there
were yet great number of Coxeyites at the
house of correction. and the number was
being increased at the rate of thirty a day.
Ail this is great expense to the state,
and intend to get rid of them as fast as
possible" 1t is the intention of the gov
ernor to class the men according to the
different sections of the country that they
claim as their homes. and as soon as this
is done he will send them to those local.
ties in special trains. The Coxeyites who
were and are still at the house of correc-
ton have finished the read that they began
TO make soon after their ncercerat ion and
1t has been named 'Coxey avenue in their
honor.
