DELIVERED INTO UNCLE SAM'S HANDS
The Rook Island Company Will Wreck Any Train That Kelly's Men Steal— Frye's Army Oeti a Ride to Indianapolis.
TAKES BACK TO BUTTK.
FORSYTH, Mont. April 27.—Although Col. Page and his 250 United States regulars moved with great caution in capturing the Montana Coxey army in this olty shortly aftermldnightWednesday nearly 100 of the train stealer* escaped into the woods. Those captured made no resistance whatever. The number of those taken by the detachment of the Twenty-third regiment was 881, including "Gen." Hogan, Engineer Harmon and Fireman Brady. The commonwealers were poorly armed, only three revolvers being found. Three men were found to be wounded, their injuries having been received in the skirmish at Billings.
In Uncle Sam's Hands.
Seventy-five deputy United States marshals arrived here during Thursday afternoon and the Ilogan contingent of Coxey's army was turned over to them. The train, in charge of the marshals, escorted by a detachment of the Twenty-second regiment, started for Helena Thursday evening.
The prisoners will be arraigned In the United States district court without delay on the charge of the theft of a train and disobedience of an Injunction. The general belief Is that only six or eight of the leaders will be held and the remainder will be hauled back to Butte and set at liberty.
How They Were Caught.
ST. PAUL, Minn., April 27.—The credit for the midnight capture of the Coxeyites without bloodshed Is largely due to Col. Swaine, acting commander of the department of Dakota. He directed the movement of the troops from Fort Keogh to Forsyth from his office in St. Paul. Col. Swaine saidi "Col. Pace was obliged to proceed cautiously, as two trains on the same track going In opposite directions make progress slowly. Wednesday night he proceeded from Horton to Hathaway, then to RoBebud, and learning that the band was delayed at Forsyth he continued on to that point and found Hogan and the band, who surrendered to hlui. Had Hogan's band got past Fort Keogh before Col. Pago received the orders to arrOBt them he would not have Interfered. hod prepared for the oontlngenoy of a retrograde movement on the part of the band In case thoy turned back upon hearing of the movement of the Fort Keogh troops. Col. Perry had been ordered to take four ttoops ot the Tenth cavalry from Fort Custer to Custer station on the railroad lire, und had Hogun and his men turnod back they would have been intei cepted by Col. Perry. But It BO happened that the band could not leave Forsyth, and Col. Page kept on and received their surrender."
Citisens Drive Out the Deputies.
A private dispatch from Butte brings the startling information that deputies in pursuit of the army left the city just a little in advanoe of a mob of 1,000 men and that it would be dangerous for them to return. Judge Knowles is considering the advisability of calling on the president to order further companies of colored soldiers from Fort Missoula to proceed to Butte and declare that city under martial law. It is learned that the railroad people tried to bar the progress of the Coxey train at various points by placing huge bowlders on the track. The army rolled the bowlders off, and after the train had passed put the bowlders back to bar the deputies' train.
Threaten to Capture Trains. WASHINGTON, April 27.—In view of
reports from Idaho that a Coxey army is organizing in the Coeur d'Alene mining district, in the northern part of the state of Idaho, und that an attempt may be made to seize a train, Attorney General Olney, after a conference with Senator Dubois Thursday afternoon, sent a telegram to the United States marshal of Idaho similar in character to those sent to the maishals of Montana. Ue is instructed to prevent any unlawful seizure of trains and to ewear in as many deputy marshals as may be necessary to assist lilm. In case of his inability to prevent violations of the law he is direoted to telegraph the facts to the president and ask the assistanceof United States troops.
Rode Into Indianapolis.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., April 87.—Gen. Frye's commonweal army arrived In Indianapolis Thursday afternoon at 1 o'clock, 26U strong. The army came on a Vandalia freight train from Brazil. Wednesday evening Gen. Frye contracted with the railroad company to haul his horses and wagon and camp utensils to this city. Thursday morning the baggage and eight horses and a wagon were loaded Into a box car. When the car was coupled to a through freight t-ain the commonweal ers climbed on the cars. The trainmen did not feel that it would be possible to put the men off, and they were permitted to ride to the city.
Tlio army is encamped on the banks of the White river in the western part of the city. Gen. Frye says it will remain here until a way is found to get it out of the city. Many influential citizens and the newspapers are insisting that the "generals" and "colonels" in the army be arrested. They believe the movement could be thus broken up.
Gen. Frye and local representatives of the labor organizations called on Gov. Matthews Thursday evening. They were cordially received by the governor, who said he hoped the Indus' trial army would receive good treatment while in Indiana. He said he believed the people of Indianapolis would keep the army in provisions while it remained here.
Will Wreck the Train.
ADAIR, la., April 27.—The Chicago, Rook Island & Pacific railroad officials deolared Thursday evening that they would ditch any train which ICelly or his men might steal on their road. Yardmaster Hamilton, authorized by General Superintendent Dunlap and Division Superintendent Still well, of
ORAWFOKDSVILLE, INDIANA, FRIDAY, APRIL 27,1894
the Chicago, Hook Island & Pacific road, oarrled an armful of papers to the Kelly camp and distributed them to the men. They were notices from the Rock Island road to the effect that the railroad company had received information that an attempt would be made to steal a train, and warning the Kellyites that if any such attempt were made they must bear the consequences.
Will Be PracMiiit.
Gen. Kelly, Col. Speed and CoL Baker each received one. Kelly said that the notices were an attempt to incite the men to acts of violence, and that the railroad had been endeavoring for several days to stir up a turbulent Bpirlt which would lead the men to steal a train and thus give the road an opportunity to call on the regular army, as was done in the case of the Hogan army In Montana. He added that the railroad need not worry about him or his men, for, though a few men might try to steal rides, tramp fashion, the army would not board a train unless the train was donated or paid for. ttava the Railroads Trouble.
When Kelly's men were ready to leave Atlantic Thursday morning only twenty-six wagons were on hand to transport them. About 209 tried to board trains and steal rides, but every train that ran east out of Atlantic oarrled a score of railroad men In addition to train crews and they sprang from car to car, kicking the Kellyites off or pulling them out when the train stopped. This vigorous policy succeeded in keeping the freight trains free of dead beats. Several times the men who were summarily kloked off the trains hurled rocks at the crew, but aside from this exhibition of bad temper nothing approaching resistance occurred.
Fear an Outbreak at rtes AEoloes.
The railroad men look upon Thursday's proceedings as the beginning of the end, and regard the approach of the army to Des Moines with considerable misgivings. The men of Kelly's army firmly believe that they will ride out of Des Moines on a freight train, which will be given to them. The railroad men declare that only a full fare paid in advance for each man will furnish transportation from Des Moinea
Got 300 Reorulto at Atlantic.
The army left Atlantic with 1,250 men in the column, showing that Kelly received about 200 recruits in Atlantic. His army is a variable quantity, for some days 100 to 150 men desert, many of them to turn up next day. lie says that he will get 500 recruits in Des Moines. Some of the men walked the entire distance from Atlantic to Adair, grumbling because not enough wagons for all had been provided. The day was very hot and wells and springs were far apart. One man fell in an epileptic fit In the street of this town and several were almost overcome by the heat and dust.
Lunch was served on the run at Anita for the people of that busy little town stood at the roadside and handed but sandwltches and coffee as the men passed. West of Adair, Kelly massed his men and they marched to the campground east of town singing.
They Can't Meet lu Washington. WASHINGTON, April 27.—The district
commissioners cast a damper over the local supporters of Coxey's movement Thursday by refusing them permission to hold open-air meetings. It had been expected by the enthusiasts that these meetings would draw converts and cash contributions for the cause. The refusal of the commissioners was based on a law that prohibits congregating on the public streets or parks or engaging In loud and boisterous talking, and they state that they have no power to grant a permit. The Coxeyites are angered at this refusal, declaring the law never was Intended to apply to orderly speech-making.
The authorities in charge of the capitol building are now considering the advisability of formally surrendering their authority to the District of Columbia and asking that a sufficient protection be given by the police foroe of the city. This step has seemed desirable, owing to the small force of capitol polioemen.
Maj. Moore, of the city police force, has promised ample reinforcements if necessary. But this is not accepted as entirely satisfactory. It is not yet determined that the capitol bulltllhg will be turn over to the protection of the city authorities, but one of the officials of chief authority says events are rapIdly tending to that result.
Shipping Rifles to Washington. SPRINGFIELD, Mass., April 37.—The
United States armory In this city has just made a shipment of guns to Washington with which to fight Coxey's army in the event of an attaok. The chief of ordinance at the capital ordered 100 Springfield rifles of the 45 caliber and sixty-five carbines dispatched at once. Maj. Rexford, in charge of the ordinance at the armory, sent the carbines by express and the rifles by fast freight

Refuses to Call Out Troops.
FKAB OF A FIOHT.
CHICAGO, April 27.—Three thousand armed miners from the Spring Valley district are marching on Toluea, with the purpose of preventing the miners there, who have ignored the order to strike, from working. Sheriff Lense sent two telegrams to Acting Gov. Gill for troops, one in the afternoon and one at midnight Gov. Gill declined to order out the militia, but has gone to Toluca to personally inspect the situation. The miners are encamped at Big Sandy and will reach Toluca early this morning. The miners at Toluca are guarded by armed deputies and bloodshed is Imminent.
Cause o( the Trouble..
TOLUCA, I1L, April 27,—The 800 coal miners here have Ignored the order to strike and as a consequence a bitter feeling has been engendered against them in this section. Threats are made that if the men do not stop work they will be forced to do BO by the strikers from Peru, Spring Valley, Loceyville, Ladd, Seatonville and La Sails.
The operators and men declare their determination to continue work, and a consignment ol 200 guns and several thousand cartridges has been received. The sherliHias sworn in a big force of deputies and armed them with these guns, and more guns will be sent for If necessary. From the reports received from strike centers in this section it is believed that a bloody battle will take place here if the forces on the wuy to this place attempt to carry out their threats.
An army of 8,000 men have gone into camp at what Is known as the Big Sandy, about 5 miles north of here. The Spring Valley, Ludd and Lentonville men left Spring Valley at
4
o'clock
Thursday afternoon 2,500 strong. They were met at Mt Palatine by miners of La Salle and vicinity. The army took Mount Palatine by storm and went Into camp. They were accompanied by seven brass bands, a fife and drum corps and seven commissary wagons, the contributions of the business men of Spring Valley and vicinity.
A Call for Alllltla Iter uteri. SI'RIUGFIELD, 111., April 27.—Acting Gov. Gill at 10 p. in. received a request by telegraph from Sheriff Lense, of Marshall county, announcing his fear of trouble with a body of armed miners marching on Toluca. Not feelllng able to enforce peace, he requested that five companies of militia be sent at once to the scene.
Acting Gov. Gill telegraphed at once that he did not think he was warranted In calling out the militia from the facts set forth in the telegram, as he had no proof that the strikers were armed or have yet or are likely to become riotous, bat that he would leave at once for the scene of the anticipated trouble and personally investigate the matter. Mr. GUI, it was reported, left on the midnight train, accompanied by Assistant Adjt Gen. Boyle.
Another telegram of the same purport, signed by the sheriff, mayor, city officials and officers of the mining company was received at 11:30 p. m., just before Mr. Gill took the train for Toluea. The governor answered it, still declining to order out the troops.
Blook Coal Miners Out.

Senator's Talk About Coxey's Formldable Movement.
TEST VOTE ON ALLEN'S RESOLUTION.
It lodloates Defeat—Senators Test, Woleott and Otliers Declare That the In* dustrlal Army Must Be Firmly
Dealt with.
THE PROCEEDINGS.
WASHINGTON, April 27.—Immediately after the reading of the journal in the senate Thursday Mr. Jarvls, recently appointed from North Carolina to succeed the late Senator Vance, was Bworn in.
Senator Allen's Coxey resolution came up, and Senator Allen stated that there would be no opposition on the democratic side to its passage.
Vest Protests.
Senator Vest (dem., Mo.) however opposed the resolution. In brief, his remarks were as follows:
Re said those people should be trea led the same as all other oltlzens of the United Stat#& If they did not violate any laws they would not be molested, but he depreoated the Introduction of Buoh a resolution, because it intimated a want of confidence In the institutions and the laws of the land. Their right to oome here and visit the oapltol was so plain, so evident that any resolution about It was a reflection on the Intelligence of the country.
He was opposed to the preamble, however, If it meant to lnolude those men who had trampled on the lawB, Injured.private property and undertaken to secure transportation to this olty by foroe of arms, for then he emphatically dissented from It He declared that the men who were marching to Washington would be protected In their rights, but they would have to learn to abide by the laws of the land, and If oongress, for one Instant, compromised with them It would open a orevasse whloh would end in a flood and final destruction. If anyone wanted to oome here, whether employed or unemployed, to 1bspeot the public buildings and visit congress, their rights would be respeoted, but when they seised trains to oome on, when they violated the laws of the oountry and trampled on the rights ot the people, oongross ought not to treat with them.
Wolcott Is Against the Commonweal. Senator Wolcott (rep., Ool.) entered a vigorous protest against passing the resolution. He was at a IOSB to understand the purpose of the resolution, which did not change the law in any respect, but simply extended a orlnglng Invitation to those men calling themselves unemployed, some of whom were coming by begelng, some by their overpowering force, and some on stolen tralna
The only excuse for such lawless sotlon as had been recently enacted had been the utterances of men In high plaoes holding oflloe. It was to be regretted that the governors of certain stateB had been so unwise as to urge theBe men to make a descent on tlie capital of the United Stales. His own state of Colorado had the misfortune to have one of these governors, whose antics had brought discredit and dlshonor on his commonwealth and sullied her fair name.
He believed that most of the men In Coxey's army might be Donee I, but they were led by men who were cranks, Insane or vicious. But their methods of righting the Wrongs of the time oould result In no good: this could only come from the natural benefloence of mankind, whloli, as the world grew better, made men more humane and kind. There should be no man suffering tor bread In this broad domain of the United States who was willing to.work. There was to-day no man who sincerely desired to work for the support of himself and his family who could not get work or bread to put Into tbe mouths ot himself and bin little ones until work oould be found. The senator continued:
Time to Call a Halt.
"I believe the time has oome when those of us who are In public life ought to begin to cultivate more regard for the perpetuity of republican institutions and to pander less to that miscalled po rtlon of the labor vote, whose labor is with their throats and never with their hands. It Is time that we stood for American manhood, for the right of every man to work If he wants to, if It takes the whole army of the United States to enable him to do so. The right of every man is to enjoy equal liberty with every other man, and that means that he shall have such liberties If not Inconsistent with equal rights of his neighbor—the right to hold and enjoy the property whiob the laws of the country have enabled him to seoure. '•It is time that we had the courage to stand together against this socialism, populism and paternalism whloh Is running riot In this ooun try acd whloh must end (If not crushed) in the destruotlon of the liberties which the laws give us, liberties whloh should be dearer to us than life Itself."
Senators Dolph (rep., Ore.) and Gray (dem., DeL) also oondemned the preamble to the resolution. ••Spontaneous Uprising Against Wrong."
Senator Allen defended his action In Introducing the resolution, and spoke for some time. In the oourse of his speech he called theue gatherings the "spontaneous uprising of American oltlzens against wrong and oppres slon." He denied that It was a socialistic movement Whether it was popullstlc he did not know, because he did not know whether any populists were enlisted In It It was, he said, a peaoeable gathering of men engaged In a peaoeable projeot" "Does the senator apply that to the army of the oommonweal which stole a train at Butte, killed two deputy marshals, and whom the troops of the United States are now trying to capture!" asked Senator Woloolt.
Senator Allen refused to be drawn on to this ground. He declared that he was as warm an advocate of pence and lawfulness as any other man. Ho criticised the uctlon of the commissioners of the District of Columbia In issuing a proclamation warning Coxey's army against entering the district
A Test Vote.
At 1:46 o'clock, before any action had been taken on tbe resolution, Senator Harris (dem Tenn.) movod to take up a resolution providing that "to-morrow and until otherwlso ordored the senate shall meet at II o'olook am." Sen a tors Poller and Allen objected to tbe pending resolution being dlsplaoed and demanded a yea and nay vote. The vote (whloh also showed the attitude of the senate on Senator Allen's resolution resulted: Yeas, 5. nays, 6. Those voting In the negative were Senators Allen Dolph, Frye, Oalllnger, Kyle and Peffer The senate without division then agreod to the resolution, and Sonator Harris movod to take up the tariff bill, and Senator Hlgglns (rep., DeL) took the floor In opposition to the bllL He was followed by Senator Dolph, who spoke until the senate adjourned at 6:20 m.
