NOTES OF THE ooMMoNwEAL.
The Smaller Contingents on the Road for
tho NRtion's Capltal.

The Smaller Contingents on the Road for
the Nations Capital.
Captain Jones' Philadelphia division of
the Commonweal army met with such a
freezing reception at Ellicott City, Md.
last night that it is likely to go to pieces
before it reaches the main body They
were not allowed to camp within the
limits of the town. They could get moth
ing to eat, and were forced to take to the
woods. Secretary and Treasurer Clinton
was accused of spending the money OBJ
tanned in Baltimore for beer and getting
too drunk to attend to business. Commits
sary Samuel jackson was made leader in
his place, but it is doubtful if he will be
alb lie to keep the crowd together.
Chicago's Commonweal army is having
a boom. Yesterday recruits came in faster
than they could be enlisted. Pages were
filled with names. An important ruling
has been made by Chairman Vincent. He
decided that no one unable to speak the
English language would be enlisted
among the soldiers of the Chicago army.
AT Oklahoma City, o. T., company of
the Commonweal has been organized with
an enlistment of 150. Colonel Ralph Beau
mont, the noted Knight of Labor lecturer,
was the organizer. The company will Join
the Guthrie branch of the Commonwsal,
and all expecSt to go to Washington to
gether without change Of cars.
The first regiment of. the Coxey home
reserve of Denver was formally organized
at Lincoln park yesterday afternoon. 1t
is stated that 200 people have already
signed the roll, which is expected to reach
1000 within the next few days.
The New England division of the Com
monweal army was well received and well
fed at Providence, r. l. The army re-
fused to accept eighty-five new recruits,
and 1t is likely that these will march as an
independent company.
Frye's army left Terre Haute, Ind, for
Brazil at p. m. yesterday, 300 strong.
About sixty were recruits from this
vicinity, but not more than three citizens.
The army chartered box car for Indian
Rpolis.
General George H. Sweetland left Bris-
tol, Conn, yesterday for Hartford, en-
route for Washington, with two followers.

FREDERICK, Md, April 95.-General
C9xey returned TO the Commonweal army
yesterday, and was received with cheers
on the very spot where stood the house Of
Old Barbara Fritchie. Mr.. Coxey was well
pleased with the result Of his New York
ehpe dition. He said that the trunk line
roads had not yet decided whether or not
they would give reduced rates to Wash.
iugton on May /. There was to be a spe.
cial meeting OF the trunk line managers,
he said, and their decision would be tele
graphed him.
In commenting on the manifesto Of the
district commissioners Mr.. Coxey said
that It was just what might be expected
under the circumstances. There was no
need Of any preparatory proclamations by
the district authorities as to the order
they were going 10 preserve, and the whole
thing was the same sort Of bluster that
had been made by Mayor Fleming, of
Frederick, when he declared that the Com.
monweal should never parade in his town,
aud then allowed the procession directly
under the noses Of thirty deputy sheriffs.
While in New York Mr. Coxey said he had
beer offered the use of Woodley Park,
outside Of Washington, as camping
ground for the army. This is one of the
most beautiful of the suburban real estate
divisions about Washington.
Last night Mr.. Coxey received note
from Congressman Coffeen, of Wyoming,
incloslng $50, with his blessing on the
Commonweal movement. The Massillon
farmers who were opposed to COxey and
the Commonweal when the start was
made, a month ago, have changed in their
opinion, and wrote saying that should Mr.
Coxey be detained in Washington beyond
the time of spring plowing they would see
that all his crops were planted without
his returning to superintend the work
The reception of the Commonweal in
Frederick was complete surprise to the
Commopwealers themselves. They were
met near the county line by posse Of
thirty mounted deputies under Sheriff
Zimmerman, and escorted into town. But
the people were more disgusted over call
ing out the sheritfs than were the Coxey
men, for the deputies were all being paid
for ct 90 day out Of the peoples pockets,
and it has already been denounced as a
political job. The general feeling is that
it would have been better to appropriate
$3.50 TO buy food for the army than to pay
$1,000 to the sheriff's posse to prevent the
army from committing depredations that
they never contemplated.
The Commonweal army is growing.
Nearly 300 men marched out Of Camp
Boone yesterday. They were Joined by
stragglers along the road, and in Frederick
they found another party of thirty-fv
men waiting to join them.

MUTINT IN KELLErs RANKS.
II IL Caused by Jealousy Between San
FranoisoO and Sacramento.

ATLANTIC, Ia, April 25--When Kelleys
army reached Walnut at noon yesterday
it was received with the same cordial well
come which has characterized the Fecep-
tions since It left Council Bluffs. The
town officials bade Kelley welcome and
the townspeopls furnished plenty of pro
visions. The stop here was brief, and the
army was soon on It's way again for At
lsntic. The farmers greeted the men on
the march with words of encouragement,
and now and then a we'll filed provision
wagon wheeled into line amid grateful
cheers from the men.
Another mutiny seemed probable yes
terday, and this time it promised to be
mors serious than the Nicola incident.
Colonel Spe&d, whose popularity with the
men is as great as that of the commander
positively refused to obey orders, and it
was apparent that any attempt to discip-
line him would cause a split in the army
Spead has been inclined to be unruly ever
since Colonel Bakers discharge, and has
secretly sympathized with the ex-colonel.
A decidedly hot exchange of compliments
between the Kelley and Spead men fol
lowed the latter's disobedience, and for
time general row was imminent, as the
Sacramento men promptly took sides with
Spead, while the California division IA
vored Kelley The latter finally turned
away with the remark that he would set
tie the matter later.
A short distance beyond Walnut the
army halted to discuss the impending
trouble Spead attempted to make a
speech and Immediately a wild scene en-
sued Cries of "Spead" mingled with
shouts for Kelley. The men formed op-
posite bodies and a fierce fight seemed i'm
minent. For fifteen or twenty minutes the
scene continued. Spead continued trying
to speak amid cheers from his followers
and howls and threats from Kelley's men.
Stones were gathered and clubs were
waved while crowds from Walnut re.
turned to a safe distance in expectation OF
a conflict
At last Kelley climbed upon a wagon
and began a speech. Men ran from all
directions shouting Kelley" and soon
over half the army had gathered about
him. He talked quietly and dispassion.
ately, attempting to quell the angry mob.
He informed them that a court martial
had been held, and that the officers had,
by vote of 20 to 3, reduced Spead to the
ranks.
1--WE are going on to Washington" he
shouted, land / believe we will go to-
gether." The men cheered vooiferously,
and Kelley ordered them to dinner. This
queted them down, and the fight was for
time at least averted The entire troubla
Is the result Of jealousy between the San
Francisco and Sacramento divisions, to the
latter of which Spead belongs.

SENATOR VOORHEES, claims that the pro
pased reductions in the traif will save
6SG6i0,0OO in taxation to the laboring
people. This would be correct upon the
sole supposition that our imports of for.

during the years of protection, upon
which his calculations were made. But
ne omits an essential feature in trade.
The mere fact of our having protective

sach importations, 20 an extent that will
also increase the burden of taxation"

PREPARINa FOR TROUBLE.
Treasury omcials Add to the suppl
of Arms,

of Arms.
WASHINGTON, April 25.-The treasury
officials, while disclaiming any fears of
trouble on account of the presence of the
crowds incident to the coming of CoXey's 8
army, have taken the precaution Of add
ing ffty-hve carbines and twenty revolv-
ers to the treasury's supply of arms The
normal strength of the watch force Of the
treasury is seventy men, divided into two
relieves, and in addition to two or three
dozen revolvers there has always been
thirty-nve carbines in the racks in the Of
fee of the captain of the watch, sufficient
to supply one to each watchman on duty.
1t has been thought best, however, to in
crease the supply in view of the crowds of
hangers on of Coxey's army that are ex-
pected to arrive in the city during the
coming week.
The captain of the treasury guard a
local military organization composed en-
tirely of clerks in the treasury department,
Informed the captain Of the watch force
that in case of trouble at any hour of the
day or night he could have every man in
his command at the treasury building in
side of forty-five minutes. He stated that
his men were well drilled in the use of
arms and hence could do much more eff
fective work than civilians He asked to
be notified if there was at any time any
apprehension of trouble.

Terrific Gale or the Irish Coast.

DUBLIN, April ga terrific gale pre-
vailed yesterday over the southern coast
of Ireland The storm was particularly
severe in the Skibbereen district There
was a large feet of fishing boats off the
coast when the gale set in. Some made
for ports of refuge, while others remained,
thinking they could outride the gale. 1t
is feared that many of the latter have
been wrecked. Reports from various parts
of the south coast show that great dam
age was done on land.
