Admiral Edwards feet of ships weigh
ed anchor this morning, after a sojourn
of three days in the port Of Bismarck.
At 4 o'clock, there was a stir among the
several ships of his squadron. Men ran
along the gang planks and assisted in
taking IN cargo. Sails tapped in the
breeze, and windlasses and chains
creaked and ratified, indicative of the
coming activity. A light breeze rippled
the smooth surface of the Missouri, and
foam fecked catspaws dashed gently
against the ships sides. Flags were run
up at the mast head, and aoated gaily to
the early morning breeze. Then the
cables we're loosed, and the gang planks
drawn up, and Admiral Edwards fleet,
ten ships in line, moved out into the
channel of the stream, once more to
begin upon the journey to the nations
capital. The voyage of the navy was
begun auspiciously. No accident marred
the serene evennes of embarkation, and
the fleet has every prospect of a success
full trip to Pierre, it's next stopping place.
GOT A REMITTANCE.
1t was thought for a time that Ad-
,niro1 F1wordos a u,o,,lJ 80 oa-.
on their trip down the river, but would
be forced to close their watery pilgrim
age here, and take overland. For pro-
visions ran pretty low, after the navy's
arrival here, and although efforts we're
made by the leaders to secure contrlbu-
tions of food, they were neither as nu-
merous nor as considerable as would
justify the admiral in starting for
Pierre. But. OPPORTUNITY for Bismarck,
the men have sympathizers in Butte,
who are 10th to see the navy disband,
and some telegraphing resulted in the
remittance of 800 to replenish the ener-
waited exchequer of the purser. This
amount was converted to the purchase
OF commissary supplies, and with this
turn of the tide in it's I vor, the navy has
left for the clearer waters of the lower
Missouri. Bismarck wishes the feet q
cordial bon voyage, favorable winds, and
safe landing at Pierre, to whose people
the possession of the navy is relinquish-
ed with the utmost of good feeling, and
no feelings Of jealousy or envy.
Il LAND FORCES.
Chief Deputy Daggett and Col. E. s..
Miller came up from jamestown yester-
day morning, bringing with them nine
OF the Coxeyites who borrowed an engine
from the Northern Pacific at Dawson q
few days ago, Notwithstanding the pro-
tests Of the company. These men are
the leaders of the band, and they have
been registered at Sheriff Donnelly's
hotel, where they will be cared for.
They will be prosecuted in the United
States court for their participation in
the recent scrape, and will probably
meet with the same fate which has be-
fallen others in like instances.
A number of deputies came in from
Grafton yesterday, and Marshal Cronan
came in this morning, to look after
affairs. Chief Deputy Daggett is here,
and is not overlooking any of the salient
features of the situation, and he has the
matter now we'll in hand. This morning
all Of the freight trains in the yards
were examined, car after Car, for refugees.
for it is known that some of the Coxey-
ties have been able to spring open car
doors to a great enough extent to effect
an entrance, without breaking the seals.
MORE FROM THE WEST.
The Missouri division of the road
seems to be decorated at intervals along
its extent with. bands Of Coxeyites, and a
number of them have arrived at Man
dan. Saturday, a boat was finished at
that point, for use in their transportation
across the river, and q squad Of forty
r fifty of them are in the city now.
One rather odd circumstance in connec-
ton with these land forces, is that there
is a lack Of fraternity between them and
the naval contingent. The army made
application to the navy yesterday to be
taken as recruits, and the navy refused
the petition. Probably the appetites of
the army forces ls too healthy, or it may
De the navy is q n exclusive organization.
BOUND OVER.
This morning, before Court Commits
sioner Hoskins, the cases against the
nine men we're brought up for consider.
alton. Peter Steen, who acted as engi-
neer OF the stolen engine, was the first
person arraigned, and by his counse |
Michael 7. O'Connos, he waived exami.'
