hope OF securing a train was practically
abandoned by the local committee, their
various propositions for stock cars and cut
rates having been refused. In addition TO
the prospect of a march to Chicago the
army was threatened with an empty lard.

to secure food met with small returns, aud
the opinion was generally expressed that
the city would not furnish sufficient pro
visions for another day.
The indications are that Kelly will have

WASHINGTON, May 3. - Health Officer
Hammil has made report TO the District
commissioners condemning the lot on
which Coxey's army is encamped as
place likely TO breed disease. He says that
with so large q body OF men assembled In
such an inolosure, with the probability OF
increased numbers, fear may be had that
they may breed typhus fever; also that
isolation would be impossible In case OF
contagious diseases. Herocommends that
the army should be removed TO a place
provided with shelter and suggests the
Ivy City race grounds as a suitable place
Quite large crowd gathered at the

until his bills are passed. The camp has
been thoroughly cleaned, and q large por-
tion Of the ground was covered with clean
straw. A large tent has been loaned for
the use of the men. 10 was set up in tho
center Of the camp and will add materially
TO the comfort of the CoXeyites.
At the Camp.
Affairs at the camp of the army Of the
commonweal are In very quicscent state
today. There have been no disorders or
demonstrations of any kind requiring the
presence of the large force of regular and
special police who are stationed at and i'm
the vicinity of the camp. The common
wealers have apparently settled themselves
down to a temporary period at least of
comparative inactivity after their long and
laborious march TO the nations capital.
Many are putting in their time sleeping,
making up for what they lost in their
tramp. The camp grounds have been a
/ dumping place for refuse, and trash is scat
/ tered indiscriminately about the grounds.
/ Some attempt Is making to improve the
| place, and many Of the members of the
army are engaged in piling up bricks and
/ otherwise putting things i'm shipshape.
The trial of Carl Browne, Christopher
/ Columbus Jones and Coxey has been post
poned until Friday. They will be arraign-
ed on that day before Judge Miller in the
| police court The charge against them
will be violation of a United States stat
ute.
The arrest Of Coxey took place in the po-
lice court on an information filed against
him Wednesday night. The three men
have a considerable array of Populist law
ycrs TO defend them, their counsel includ-
ing Representatives Pence Of Colorado

Boston slept in Guilford, where the towns
people felt ugly toward them and were in

contribute any food to their support, and
Captain Fitzgerald had TO purchase il.
During the night a skunk got into the
barn, and there was great commotion.
Half the little army had their clothes

and gathered ON the green there and had
a fair reception from the citizens. They
