AiIer, of NebraRka.

Allen, of Nebraska.
WASHINGTON, April 2l.-The senate pro-
ceedings were surfeited with events of in
terest yesterday, the first being Senator
Hawloy srepiy to the speech Of Senator AL
len on Coxey's Army of the Commonweal.
Senator Ha~ley was vigorous in his re-
marks, and took occasion to defend the
dignity of the senate. and asserted that
the speech made by Seuater Allen was
more fitted to a meeting OF anarchists
than the senate of the United States. The
Nebraska senator was evidently anxious
to reply, but was cut off on account of
time.
Senator Mcpherson IN ~ replied to the
charges that have been made against GER
tain Democratic senators that they were
obstruoting the tariff bill and insisted that
he was doing nothing Of the kind The
tariff speeches were by Senators Gaiiinger
IN. h, McMllin tMich) and Dolph
lore.). The latter did not finish his speech.
During Senator Galingor's speech there
was spicy colloquy between Senators
Gray, Aldrioh and himself, in which the
Wilson bill and iss results on recent cleo
tions was discussed.
Senator Gray proposed an amendment
to the rules designed to stop the practice
OF senators from reading their speeches
and to prevent the reading Of long ex
tracts from books, papers and pamphlets
as part of speeches. The object IS to put
an end to the consumption OF tirae
The proceedings in the house were very
interesting. Practically no business was

RECEPTION AT THE CAPITAL.


Two PopulIst Representatives Propose
Measures of Relief.
WASHINGTON. April 2i.-Provision for
the accommodation of the Army of tho
Commonweal is contemplated in n resolu-
tion introduced In tho house by Repre-
sentative Boen pop.), of Minnesota The
resolution instruets the secretary of war
to provide within the District of Columbia
a camping ground and tents for all organ
lied bodies Of laboring people, who may
come within the district, and see to 1t
that their rights as citizens, organiza-
tioLs and individuals are respected and
protected during their stay here. The
resolution was referred to the committee
on military affairs.
Representative Davis (Pop), of Kansas,
introduced long bill reciting the woes
OF the unemployed, and directing the sec
retary of war to Immediately enlist 500,
900 men In an industrial volunteer army
to serve for the period of one year after en-
listment." The army is to be clothed and
fed and paid as regular soldiers Instead
of drilling they are to be employed on pub
lilo works such as canals, rivers and har-
bors, public highways, etc. To dcfray tho
expenses of this army the secretary of the
treasury is to issue S10000,0 600 of legal ten
der notes and certain forms of currency.
Mr.. Boen said of his resolution: II re-
gard it as imperative that congress should
recognize the actual conditions by which
crowds of workingmen arc centcring at
Washington. Il is useless to argue as TO
whether they ought to come, The fact is
they ara coming and in ten days will bs
here. They Will have supplies to main
tain themselves, but they have no quar-
ters. If treated peaceably they will dis
band peaoeabiy, The danger lies in inju-
dicious action on the part Of the police or
the militia. My only purpose is to pro-
pose means to avoid disorder"
The senate committee on rules was In
consultation yesterday with Chief of Po-
lice Moore and Sergeant-at-Arms Bright
of the senate concerning the prospective
arrival of CoSey and his followers and
other organizations of the same character
reported to be on their way to Washington
to influence legislation. Both these Off
cials said in reply to questions put by mem
hers of the committee that they had taken
due notice of the approach of these men
and had taken all the precautions which
the situation demands to protect the city
and the Capitol. Both expressed the opin-
ion that the police force of the city and of
the Capitol were ample for these purposes.
a.Colonel Bright, in reply to an inquiry
after the meeting, said; "Mr. Coxey will
not be permitted to hold his contemplated
meeting on tho steps of the Capitol That
is against the law, and is one of the items
in Coxey's program which will not occur
as he has announced. My policy will be
to grant the Coxeyites all the liberty that
is granted to all other citizens by the law
and to protect them in the enjoyment Of
all proper privileges, but the laws will
I have TO be enforced, and SO far as it is
| given me to enforce them shall do it.n

was lowering morning, and they were
sharp set for breakfast. The log house
of farmer was plain to view quar-
ter of milo down the road, and they
made suro they would find something
to eat there. In few words they agreed
on the story they were to tell if ques-
toned, and 10 minutes later they wero
at the door of the house. 1t was opened
to them by the farmers wife. She was
a strong advocate of the southern cause,
and the sight of their Confederate uni
forms brought cheerful invitation to
enter and sit down to breakfast.
Don't you uns belong with that
crowd which jest passed up the roadf"
she asked as they fell to eating.
Steve Brayton took it upon himself to
answer in tho negative and then asked
what crowd it was.

They hain't much on the fight, reckon,
but they do poster the Yankees like all

some of 'em live around yers. Whar

Breakfast had been finished when
there came a knock at the door, and
next moment man in tho uniform of a
Confederate cavalry sergeant entered
the cabin. He had been sent back by
Colonel Sioaby, he said, to ask for the
Loan of horae and equipments. He
used tho term loan, but it was pretty
plain tliat ha meant TO take no refusal.
The woman replied that her husband
had set out for Woodstock the night be-
fore on horseback, and therefore it was
impossible to grant the colonelis re-
quest. Tho Aolgaant was going away
without word to our two friends, but
after reaching his horse he returned

Therefore we have no pass and do not

''Yo' may be all right, and yo' may

the sergeant. ''If yo' are straight, yo'll
come along with me and explain to the
kurnel Deed, but yo've got TO come,

He had left his revolver and carbine
on the saddle. He started for his horse,
but Steve was there before him. He
had stepped softly out whilo Kenton
was explaining and was now in possess

reached the gate Steve gave his horse
slap and sent him galloping away and
then turned and asked:
who's talsin anybody to see the kur-
mel? Sorter pears to me that yo've dun
stubbed yo'r toe and fell down."
The sergeant very quietly asked what
he was going to do, and his manner be-
trayed his anxiety
"Goin to git shet Of yo' about tho

The trooper marched away without

laughed Steve. tIf we uns hadn' t tooken

THE GREAT STRIKE ON
Between One and Two Hundred
Thousand Miners Out.
EIXTEEN STATES ARE AFFECTED.

A. Present Only tho Bituminous Miners
bo Used for Steam Power the strike
May Spread.
PIrTsRuRo April 2i,-Today Mt noon the
great coal strike which has been pending
Tor several months was inaugurated.
Opinions differ AZ to the number of men
Engaged In It, President Jehn Mcbride,
" the United Mine Workers union, esti-
pates that 200e coo men are out Secretary
Treasurer Patrick McBryde is quoted as
placing the number at 100000. The tele-
graphic reports indicate that the number
will be between these two extremes.
The strike Is confined to the bituminous
poal region of the United States, In this
Dhere are twenty-three districts organized,
iour being in Pennsylvania. The other
districts are Washington, Wyoming, Col
srado, Indian territory, Missouri, Kansas.
Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, Vir-
Sinia, West Virginia, Mary yland, Ohio. In
Llama and Illinois.
Massillon (O.) operators say that 5000
poal mines In the United States are aban-
honed. OF these 800 are located In Ohio.
In the PlttsburR district alone there are
about 100 mines and fully thirty more in
Me Cleerleld or mountain district.
That the operators in this and tho Ohio
districts believe the strike will assume
great proportions has been shown by the
Siarting during the past week Of mines
which have long been idle the feverish
hurry to get out coal, even coke cars be-
ing used for the purpose, and ths putting
sf as many men at work as ean be secured.
They had not been formally notified of the
btrike, but were aware that 1t was COM
ing. They have not decided what action
10 take in the matter.
Manufacturers and foundry owners are
greatly alarmed, and do not credit assur-
Ahces from operators that the strike will
be of short duration, and therefore are Sc
curing all the coal they can 1t is CON
peded that strike of two weeks will
cause a shortage which may result in the
blessing down of their works. Local con-
sumers also apprehend an advance in the
price of coal as Il result of the strike and
are laying in supply now, so that the
hoal dealers have all the orders they can
kttend to. Altogether noimpendins strike
