The Arrival Here.

The party reached Cincinnati last week
with but forty-eight men, there having been
number of assertions and others having
left because they had obtained employ
ment.
AS published in Saturdays Star, Mai.
Moore was notified OF the presence of the
members Of the army of peace at the little
railroad town of Brunswick by Capt. Gran
non of the Baltimore and OHIO detectives,
and he was also notified of their being sent
out of Cincinnati by Chief Hazen of the
secret service division of the Treasury De-
partment.
A freight train with Capt. Primrose, Sec
rotary Mercado and thrty-nine privates
in a box car left Brunswick at $50 Satur-
day afternoon and the train stopped at
lexington soon after o'clock.
Maj. Moore and Inspector Hollinberger
had consulted about the matter of handling
the supposed tramps and the result was
that several police lieutenants, sergeants
greeted the commonwealers and drove them
to the several police stations. A charge of
bringing Migrants to the city was preferred
against Capt. Primrose and his followers
were charged, under the vagrancy law, with
being Migrants.
Half starved.
When the freight train stopped and the
doors were thrown wide open, Capt. Austin,
who was in charge of the police, inquired
of the men If they were hungry, and the
response came, I'VE have had nothing to
eat since We left Cincinnati, except few
pounds of chracers and some coffee"
1t was really crowd OF half-starved
men. who had banded together to come
here because of the Coxey agitation. Many
Of them are foreigners, but they had not
the appearance of the average bum or
full-fedged tramps, as the police know
them.
Their arrest proved a genuine charity,
for soon after they We're locked up at the
police stations they devoured bread by the
loaf, and drank coffee as though they had
not seen food for months.
The men denied that they had any con-
nectiOn with COXey's army, although they
admitted that their coming here was the
result Of the CoXey movement.
1T was starve in Texas or come east and
chance something better" was the general
tone of the statements.
Each man has his own story to tell Some
of them had lived in this section and went
west to grow up with the country, but

Not Frightened.

Continuing, Mr.. Pugh said that it was
well known that at the present time there
was not work enough for the people al
ready here, and that these men would be-
come chargeable to the District was too APP
parent for argument. They were the ad-
vance guard of an army marching on to
the District,and if they were not summarily
disposed of there would soon be a most
alarming condition of affairs here.
on exclaimed MIR. Lipscomb, you
needn't get frightened"
Il am not at all frightened, for the police
force, and, if necessary, the militia and
United States forces, are perfectly well able
to protect the people of the District" re-
marked Mr.. Pugh. But in the case of
these men, your honor. l am willing that
their personal bonds should be taken pro-
District at once"
Counsel for the men would not so agree
stating that parties here would care for the
men while they We're seeking employment
here. Judge Kimball then overruled the
demurrer to the evidence, when the defend
ant, Arnheim, took the stand.
Arnheim's Story.
Arnheim stated that he was twenty four
years of age. born in New Orleans. and had
met the men in st. Louis. He was a coach
man and gardener and had Joined the COM
mand with the hope and in the belief that
by so doing he could find employment He
also said that he was member of the Pres
byterian church and that he had always
been law-abiding citizen. At Cincinnat ii
the men had been granted the use of the
box car and had occupied it from there IN

Industrious Men,


Both Representative Hudson and Mr.. Inns
comb thought not, Mr.. Lpscomb contendinc
that IDyEe must have been some overt act
OF Vasrancy committed. The American
mind. he said, revol,ed against the idea of
Furnishing poverty, Tor if that were done a
dreadful revolution would be precipitated
upon the country
MI HUDSON remarked that if anybody was
10 be condemned in the matter il should be
Congress itself. But these mon were GOOD
men, industrious.and honestly seeking work.
ana he therefore asked their DISCHARGE.
Judge ktmball explained that he mad never
yet sent a man down who was of such
character and never would, but that was
the question in the present case
Prosecutor Push said he had no Doubt
that the 1Orty-One men We're industrious
men, and 1t was not cOntended that they
were criminals, but the information charged
that they were without visible means of
support likely to become chareeable to the
District. That had been virtually admitted
by the defendants and it was a conclusion
the court had right to form.
Mr.. Lipscumb said that il that were true
then the men would be punished because Of
anOthers wrunS-beCause they could not
find employment here.

Shooting the ..Chutes.-

The Chicago public has gone crazy
over a new pastime called shooting
the Chutes," patterned after the
slide at the Tower. The .'chutes"
are simply an enormous toboggan
slide like those here, differing from
the ordinary snow tcboggan on ac-
count of a substitution of water for
snow and ice. The sport is far more
exciting and enjoyable than the lat
ter. Its popularity is astounding.

One OF IIllman's Gentlemen.

LANCASTER, S. c.. January 2S.-The
people here appear to be fairly astonish-
ed at the action of Governor Tillman in
telegraphing to Charleston that he will
pardon J. c. Elliot as soon as he received
a copy of the sentence. Surely we are
now living under King. Mon who
know Elliot and who were raised up with
him say that the Governor does not know
him or he could not stand off at such q
distance and pronounce him innocent
without any knowledge of the facts and
the party concerned therein. From what
tho people say his temper and habits will
not warrant the commendation passed
upon him by Governor Tillman. They
say that Governor Tillman is talking
about man that he knows nothing Of.
There are men In Lancaster County bold
enough, I am told. TO stand. up and
charge Mr.. Elliot to his face with higher
offences than striking woman i'll her
own house. It Ia said that respecta bio
old gentleman and a close neighbor Of
Elliot's could tell very sad story that
would open the eyes of Governor TILL
man.
