CALLED ON SENATORS. Unique Demonstration by Philadelphia Protection Workingmen. THEY PETITION IN PERSON. 4 Re«ohitl<>i>« Asking n Hearing by the Finance Committee Presented After a Parade on Feiinsylvunla A venue—Senate and llou»e Proceeding*—General New* From the Capital. Washington, April 21.—A nhlqne demonstration in the history of congress occurred this forenoon when a delegation of several hundred Philadelphia men, members pt, the Workingmen's Protective Tariff league, were met at depot by the advance guard which arrived yesterday and marched in a body to the edge of the capitol grounds, special permission having been granted by the chief of police for the parade. They come in person to ask a hearing of the senate finance committee on the proposed tariff bill, and as they marched down Pennsylvania avenue their banners and mottoes fluttered in the breeze. The company of nearly a thousand men stopped at the edge of the capital grounds on account of the statutes prohibiting parades or assemblages thereon. From that point a committee was sent to the senate with resolutions opposing the bill and with samples of textile fabric made by them as a practical demonstration of the benefit of a protective tariff. Yesterday afternoon the advance guard held a public meeting in which several speakers fully expressed themselves in opposition to the tariff bill, one declaring that “if they don’t hear us tomorrow they will hear from tfs next November right and left.” His fellow workmen voiced tlieir approval with “that’s so.” The same speaker said that if Lincoln or Blaine were in Washington they would be heard. Lincoln's name was cheered and the reference to Blaine evoked a mighty shout. At the meeting a committee on resolutions was appointed, and at the meeting this morning its report was adopted. IN THE SENATE. Lively Reference to Peffer’s Commonweal Resolutlon—Tariff Controversy. Washington. April 21.—Senator Hawley yesterday in the senate dealt some hard blows to Senator Allen’s defense of Peffer’s commonweal resolution. He declared that the men coming here did not represent the views of the American people and said that it did not require a microscope to discover iu Allen’s sjieech the microbes and bacilli of anarchism. Mr. Allen was about to reply when shut off by the tariff bill, on which Mr. Gallinger proceeded to speak. In the course of his talk a running controversy occurred between Messrs. Gray and Aidrich, the latter asserting and the former denying that in recent elections people had expressed reprobation of the kind of tariff reform now before congress. Mr. Aldrich reminded Mr. Gray that the Democratic press had nothing but wprds of praise for the two speeches in opposition to the bill from the Democratic side. Their appeal to put the bill into shape to conform to the Democratic policy had the heartiest support of all the Democrats of the north. “The senator from Rhode Island is building a great superstructure on the speeches to which he alludes,” Teplied Mr. Gray, “butl understand that both (certainly the last) were confined to a discussion of the income tax feature, which has about as much relation to the tariff reform measure demanded by the people in 1892 as a ukase by the Russian emperor, and if the senator from Rhode Island builds any hope on that foundation we will have to sympathize with his disappointment.” “1 shall be very much surprised, said Mr. Aldrich, “if a great many senators on the opposite side do not soon come to the conclusion that the income tax is a very- important feature of the tariff bill,” “Is the senator opposed to the income tax?” asked Mr. Gray. “I am opposed to the income tax and every other feature iu the tariff bill before the senate.” replied Mr. Aldrich. Mr. McMillan of Michigan and Mr. Dolph of Oregon also spoke against the hill ■ . .... I

ONIVAHI) THEY Mil'll. J ■’ 1 i ■' ' 11 Mutinous Members of Kelly’s Army Restored to the Ranks, I HIS PUNS IN WASHINGTON, i i Unknown Smith Arrive! In the Capital and Will Sue For Peace With C««ey. Edict by the District Commissioners. Coxe.v's Di-slant Answer—Progress of the Commonweal Campaign. Avoca, la., April 24.—Kelly’s reception here last night was fully as flattering as that accorded at Neola. The 2,500 inhabitants were apparently all on the streets, and brawny countrymen and gaily decked maidens vied with one another in showering attentions upon the brigade. Company C, which had been disbanded at Neola as a means of quelling a threatened mutiny, rejoined the army during the afternoon, and after an abject personal apology from each member Kelly postered them back “into the service.” By this successful quelling of the little mutiny the determined young commander has secured an even more firm hold on his men. Last night Kelly consented to outline bis plans for the end of the journey. Should his army be refused approach to the capitol he will upon his arrival in Washington, he says, take four of his men and make a personal appeal to Congressman Pence of Colorado, McGuire of California and Senator Allen of Nevada. Through their efforts he hoped to be allowed to draw up his men where the lawmakers of the nation may see them. “Petitions from laboring people have been numerous and ineffective in the past.” said Kelly, “but this living petition will be hard to pigeon-h( le. That is the reason I am leading these men to the capitol. Once there, our plans will be successfully carried out. Two congressmen are already pledged to present a memorial in our benalf. That memorial is now being drawn up by a well known Washington firm of constitutional Ittwy ,ts and will be ready for us when we reach the journey’s end. Today the army is going by wagon to Atlantic, where they will remain a day for rest. Warrants were received here last night for th< arrest of two women, Edna Harper and Annie Houton. who have accompanied the army since it k'■ Council Bluffs and who were with the crowd which captured the train and ran it to Kelly Friday evening. COXEY'S EYES FLASHED. Police Proclamation Will Not Deter the Invasion of the Capital. New York. April 24.—General Coxey last night was shown a copy of the proclamation issued by the district commissioners of Washington warning the industrial armies from invading the capital. “My answer to it is this; ’The wicked flee t h when no man pursueth.’ ” ■ For the first time since his arrival in this city the general showed that he was wrought up, although he outwardly strove to repress all signs of emotion, ft was with a forced smile that he said: “Then my army has struck terror into the hearts of the president and congressmen." “Will you heed the proclamation ?” “Emphatically, no.” “If the police arrest yourself and army, what then?” “Let them dare,” snapped the general, his eves tk ic hi”' r “Will you desist from encouraging other industrial armies from storming the capital?” “On the contrary, I shall redouble my efforts to bring every unemployed man, woman and child to Washington." “Will not the fear of possible bloodshed deter you?” “I do not court a resort to arms, but we will demand our rights, even if it takes physical strength to prevail. 1 shall not commit myself to that, but will repeat my declaration to bring congress to terms by besieging Washington until justice is done.” “What if .he unemployed starve in the streets of Washington?" “The stench from their ashes will force i congressional relief.” “Isthat intended in all seriousness?” “Certainly, matters will be carried to that extreme if necessary.” SMITH IN ADVANCE. Redoubtable Unknown Arrives In Washington and Visits Headquarters. Washington, April 24.—Unknown Smith, the late redoubtable lieutenant of General Coxey, strikingly arrayed in a brown velveteen coat and vest, riding trou«ers t and leggings, and Wash ‘ iflflbii appetfred at the local Coxey headquarters. With him was “Cheeky” Childs, erstwhile of the Coxey army and between times an unauthorized advance agent of the corps. The unknown says he came in from Frederick, Md., where about 600 of his adherents. he asserts, are in waiting, living in squads upon the country people. He spoke in the most glowing terms of the Coxey movement, and denied having had any personal difficulty with Broww*. He looked to Redstone to settle the slight misunderstanding that had arisen between himself and General Coxey and said that if even that failed he would fall in behind when the army comes along and do all he can to furtherntsydp jects. As the French See It. Paris. April 24.—The Temps compares the inarch of the Coxey bands in the United States to the uprising of the populace in the middle ages, adding:, “At the same time, it would be wrong to regard this particular demonstration as the advent of a social revolution. i Society in America lies upon such broad foundations anti is so firmly based upon the national conscience that what wonk, lead to a general revolution elsewhere is only a rapid skirmish in America." Notice From the Police. Washington, April 24.—1 n a long preanible anil resohifions the police commissioners if this district have given notice to Coxey recruits that, iu the belief that no possible good can come of

the gathering, there are no means of , sustaining the army in Washington and that the law doos not permit the soliciting •Jahns and forbids parades. The law. the notice says, will be rigidly enforced. 4 , Taken the Wrong Way. Oakland, April 24.—Industrial army , detachments, which got as far as San Pablo, where its members spent the night in carousal, climbed aboard an eastbound freight. The locomotive was ; uncoupled, hitched to the rear of the . train and the army was hauled back to ' the starting point in this city. Excursion I’lnn* Referred. New York. April 24.—General Coxey applied to tile Associated Trunk lines yesterday ■ for excursion rates, but did not get an answer, being told that the plans would have to be referred to the executive committee. .Moved East on Foot. Wilmington, 0., April 24.—Galvin’s contingent of commonwealers, stranded here while waiting railroad transportation, gave up the hope and tramped to Sabina, where camp was pitched last night. Hopeful General. Indianapolis, April 24.—The commonweal movement has not been alarmingly successful up to the present time, but the general in command says he will have plenty of recruits at the proper time. Won't Wait For Kelly. Chicago, April 24.—J. H. Randall has been chosen general of the local army, which has decided to start this week without waiting for Kelly. Enlistments number 700. Nothing to Do but Sympathize. Denver, April 24.—A movement for a home reserve of Coxey’s army has begun here for sympathy purposes. CYCLONE FIRED A GUN. Freakish Conduct of A Disastrous Storm lu Texas. Burkeville, Tex.. April 24—A waterspout and cyclone played havoc about 12 miles west of here yesterday. Every house but one at Gilchrist was blown down. Flyings timbers struck a Winchester in Ralph Gilchrist's house, causing it to discharge. The bullet struck Miss Rosie Gilchrist, inflicting a fat . wound. Several bridges, were washed away, Old Machine Worsted. New York, April 2-4.*-The committee of 30 that is reorganizing the Republican party in this city held assembly district conventions last night iu each of the 30 districts. C< ntests cropped up between the followers of the Union league and those of the old machine, which have combined to fight the Milholland movement in about half a dozen districts, with the result that the old machine party generally got worsted. Working Miners Attacked. Lasalle, 111., April 24.—A mob of I, miners from neighboring towns marched on Lasalle yesterday to prevent the men from going to work,, and a riot was precipitated in which a number of local miners were beaten and badly injured. Fritz Kieling was cur and bruised and his condition is serious, and Mike Begley was severely pummelled. Woman’s Tragic Deed. Cleveland, April 24.—Mrs. Amelia Mueller, a widow living on Central avenue, took carbolic, acid last night and tried to murder her aged father and mother in bed with a hammer.
