BROWNSVILLE AGAIN
 IN THE LIMELIGHT
NEGRO SOLDIERS TOOK oRD- NANCE FROM FORT BROWN. SAYS COLONEL FRENcH-OFFI- GERS WILL BE IMPLICATED.

San Antonio, Tex. May 4.-Another sen satlon in which several officers of the army and civilians of Brownsville are likely to be implicated came to light here today in the sudden and unexpected visit of Col. Francis H. French of the inspec- tor generals department inspector of the southwestern division. His visit is oc- casioned by the Brownsville affair. From here it is probable that he will go to Brownsville.
 Shortly after his arrival Colonel French commenced to take the testimony of en- listed men at Fort Sam Houston. This testimony, it is understood was relative to the ordnance at Fort Brown. It was brought out in the Penrose courtmartial that there was an extra amount of ord- nance, and that some of the surplus ordnance was found in storeroom of one of the barracks at Fort Brown oc- cupied by the battalion of the Twenty sixth infantry, which was relieved at that post.
 The theory upon which Colonel French is believed to be proceeding is that there were ten or fifteen regular army rifles and many rounds of ammunition issued or allowed to go into the hands of persons not connected with the army.
 Since the Brownsville raid on the night of August 13 1t is stated that a number of anonymous letters were sent to army of ficers and others. This is another matter that will be looked into, as 1t Is under stood that many of these letters bear Brownsville" postmark.

East Side ParadeS for Mover.
 Haywood
HOWL AND WAVE RED FLAGS
Socialist at Grand Central Palace Aroused Great Enthusiasm By Pralsing Debs and West
 ern Miners.

New York, May 1.-Two long lines of men and women, probably 2O.0oO of them in all. tralled in parade through the streets of the upper and lower East Side today as a demonstration of their syn- pathy for Mover, Haywood and Pettibone. the officials of the Western Federation of Miners. whose trial on the charge of murder begins next week at Boise. Idaho.
 Merging substantially into one vast crowd at Fortieth street and Lexington avenue, q part of the paraders, two or three thousand strong, managed to crowd into Grand Central palace to wind up the affair in one of the biggest union labor and socalistic demonstrations seen in New York in a long time There was no disorder.
 The first real enthusiasm came after ths crowd had entered the hall, when fife and drum corps played the "Marseillaise." The crowd howled and waved small red flags. The meeting was called to order by T. C. Chase. secretary of the social- ist party, who introduced More L. Equest as chairman. When the chairman mem toned the name of President Roosevelt n was received with storm of hlsses.
 "lf he has any information regarding the guilt of these men of indictment to riot and bloodshed, 1t is his duty to givo that information to the people, he said.
 His defense of Debs was received with prolonged cheers. Ii was not, said the speaker, fact that Debs, Mover aud Haywood had dlsobeyed the laws or done any of the things which they have been charged with that made them ''undesir- able citizens" It was the fact that they were honest, law-abding citizens earn est workers for their fellow men that induced the President to make the state- ments he did against them. To the la boringmen, he said. Debs, Mover and Haywood are not undesirable citizens.
 The undesirable citizens to the labor ingmen are the capitalists, the mine own CTS, the governors of the states of Colo rado and Idaho.
 ITO us," he said. the man who has been elected to the highest office in the land and who uses his power ot tramrie down men whose very lives may depend on the openness and fairness of the public mind, has violated his solemn oath. He Is the undesirable citizen.'"

Snow In Ohio.

Cleveland, O., May 4.-Driven by a fierce gale from the northwest a heavy snow fell over northern Ohio today. The storm caused much delay to telegraph service.
 tained silence as to their case, and very little is known publicly as to it's features and details.
 The defendants deny their guilt most positively and, in turn, assert that they are the victims of a giant conspiracy as daring In conception and act as the ore alleged against then.
 They will probably seek to show that Orchard made his confession in the hope that it would save himself under promise of immunity.
