WASHINGTON UNEASY.

A Washington special of yester-
day, on the situation in that city
over the near approach of Coxey
and his Commonwealers, says:
The news which has Just reached
Washington announcing that there
has been a serious conflict in Mon
tana between the authorities and
the Coxey element, was received
here with shudder, for it is argued
that if these tramping armies are
already beginning to growl by the
time they arrive at Washington
they will be ready to bite. The
commissioners of the district ex-
press themselves as being between
the devil and the deep sea. They
have issued proclamation, the eff
feet of which is to warn Coxey's
men to stay out of the district.
The proclamation proclaims the
punishment meted out to tramps
and it is a great tom-tom instru-
ment, but Coxey, not fifty miles
away, seems to pay no heed.
There are ample laws to arrest
the army, but the commissioners do
not know whether to arrest the
whole army when it crosses the line
or wait and arrest each member
found begging, and if the arrest is
made the question then is what can
be done, The district has what is
called transportation fund, which
is used in sending away beggars,
paupers and the like, but this fund
has been used up, so Coxey's men
cannot be sent away, 1t has an
other fund called the emergency
fund, utilized in aiding the deserv-
ing poor, The number of poor peo-
pie drawing on this fund last winter
has exhausted this, so there is no
money to feed these people. The
poor house, the work house and the
Jail are all crowded to oVeriiowing,
so Coxey's men cannot be sent to
these institutions.
The commissioners have been
asked by friends of the Coxey move
ment to permit tally-ho coach,
containing speakers, to go about
the city to solicit aims and provis-
ions for the army, but this has
been refused. The police of the
city have been regularly drilled for
several days, though this has been
denied. Very strage to say, the
National Guards of the district,
numbering 1900 uniformed and well
armed young men, have selected
from the 1st to the 4th of May as
the time Of their annual field drill,
and they will all be out at that
time. The fear is not of the origi-
nal Coxey's army, which is small,
but of it's being reinforced by every
tramp and bum who can reach
there on the railroads.
If the force increases to 5000
there is every chance of trouble,
for the Washington people neither
intend to feed them for any length
of time nor to be looted. There is
a good deal of talk about the extra
guards placed about the White
House and the other departments,
but while it is probable that there
will be increased vigilance, so far
no extra guards are noticeable
about these places.

WORK OF TRAMPS.
Private Dispatches Tell of Crowd
Seen Near the Trestle.

0CCn lSScT Tic 1EGSlbCs
The place where the wreck occurred, a
private dispatch says, was at little siding
with no telegraphic communication. After
the accident brakeman was compelled
to walk back a distance of six and a
half miles to the nearest telegraph station,
from W hich the first news of the disaster
was sent to the officers of the road.
The superintendent of the division on
which the accident occurred, whose head
quarters are at Tucson, Immediately made
up special train and, taking an operator
with him. proceeded out to the wreck.
Communication was established as soon as
he reached there and the favorable intelli-
gence was flashed over the wire that no
lives had been lost.
1t is said that a track-walker passed
over the bridge few hours before it
burned, and that he noticed some tramps
congregated about a fire under the struc-
ture. He did not apprehend any trouble,
and of course said nothing to the men, but
it is now supposed that in some way the
these men.
The bridge Is said to have been an in
significant affair. only 16 feet long and
but five feet above the ground. A private
telegram also states that the gas plant
which supplies the train with light was
the cause of the cars burning. The cars
caught fire and were enveloped in flames
in very few minutes, and the escape of
the occupants of the two cars is looked
upon as little short Of miraculous. These
cars, as are all others on the Southern
Pacific system, are lighted by what is
known as the Pintsch system, and the
supply is drawn from reservoir carried
underneath the cars. This, of course.
went like flash when exposed to the heat
from the burning bridge.
"The accident demonstrates one thing TO
my mind" said railroad official yesrer-
day. land that is that these gas reservoirs
will necessarily be placed on top Of the
cars In future or we shall some dag have a
terrible disaster to report. Suppose one of
where an engine had just deposited a
great mass of living Goals. what would be
the resnlt2 Why, there wouldn't be
enough left of the car or its passengers

There are two of these trains. equipped

days. and which arrive at the opposite end
of the line on the following Sunday. The
trains were magnifcently fitted up and
were said TO be equal in all appointments

The officials of the Southern Pacific say
that the accident will not interfere with
the train service, as the dining and COM

sleepers will be substituted until new cars

New YORK, Dec. 29.-The coal barge
