The man s condition continued •boat the seme lor several weeks. Once in every ten days or two weeks he would undergo * surgical oi-eration. Leggett’s strange malady was reported in the daily papers, and considerable notice was attracted to the aquelying man, the human aqueduct, as he was called. A Cincinnati museum succeeded in getting him to sign a contract to appear on exhibition, and he was heralded in the Sunday papers as the unparalleled man-reservoir. Leggett went to Cincinnati to fulfill his con-' tract. His condition at first was not serious; he would go rabbit bunting the next day alter a surgical operation was per ormed upon him.

Washington, D. C., April 2#.—The commissioner* ot the District ot Colombia took action yesterday on the impending Coxey Invasion. After a long executive session and consultation with the attorney for tUi district a mamifestowas prepared and given out, which | calls attention to the fact that right of petii tion does not extend to the lengths the Coxeyj ites appear to imagine. Those who meditate I coming to the capital are warned that only hardship and privation await them here, and 1 they are informed that no good can come ot 1 this proposed pilgrimage. The manifesto con- ! tains the following: "No possible good can come of such a gathering. and with no proper preparations or means ol subsistence, suffering and disorder will certainly ensue. No wrong can be righted, no condition ot labor ameliorated, no remedy for anv existing evil realized by the contemplaied demonstration of physical lorcc. Every desirable end can be more certainly and effectively accomplished by ordinary and lawful

methods.

"The commissioners, while in entire sympathy with all people out of employment, and naving no desire or purpose to deal harshly with uniortunate. but honest men, who seek relief by reasonable and lawtul means, are in duty bound to give notice to those who are tempted, under any pretext, to swell the number ot unemployed persons already here that there is neither work for them nor means for their maintenance in the district; that the law does not permit the solicit#-

He is the brother of Arthur Workman, who eloped :rom Terre Haute last May with sixteeu->ear-old Annie Fischer.

They Are Receiving Plenty of Provisions

and Encouragement In Iowa.

Walnut, la., April 24.—Kelley’s Industrial army reached here at noon to-day, and. after a hasty lunch, marched on to Atlantic, where they are due at 6 o’clock to-night. The start from Avoca was made about 8 o'clock. The populace turned out en masse to bid the Commonwenler’s good-bye. The wagons that had brought the men from Neola returned last night, and to-day sixty-three fresh teams, furnished by the farmers in the adiacent county, were driven into camp at Avoca, and loaded with Commonwealers. The vehicles could hold only hal! the men, and every five miles along the road shifts were made to allow all the men to take advantage of the transportation. As the army came down the steep hill and marched into Walnut it was received with the same cordial welcome which has characterized the receptions since it left. Council Bluffs. The • town officials bade Kelley welcome

and the townspeople rarnished plenty of provisions. The stop here was brief and the army was soon on its way for Atlantic. The distance from Avoca is twenty miles. The farmers greeted the men on the march with words of encouragement, and then a wellfilled provision wagon wheeled into line amid grate ul cheers Tom the men. A car-load of provisions.irom Omaha was promised at Atlantic. and the army's chance Tor plentiful fare, at least as tar as Des Moines, are bright. Some excitement was caused in the camp last night by the report that two men had been poisoned. A physician, who investigated the report, said that the men had taken an overdose o’ cough medicine and were only slightly ill. At Atlantic elaborate pfeparations for the reception of the army were made, and committees were busy arranging details

and collecting provision*.

The army to-day gave no evidence of the mutiny yesterday, company C of Sacramento being apparently as loyal as the others. A successor to Colonel Baker, who was discharged, and who ranked next to Kelley, has not keen chosen, but Colonel BpCad, of Sacramento, will probably be elected at Atlantic to-morrow. Bis popularity with the men is great. The Commonwealers are bitter in their condemnation of Baker and his anticipated expose of Kelley’s financial methods. Should the ex-Colonel attempt to return to the army he is likely to receive rough handling. The men express great confidence in Kelley, and are allowed to view the account books of the army whenever they wish. THE ORIGINAL COMMONWEAL.

The march carried the party over another part ot the battle-ground and through Turner's Gap. One of the conspicuous points on the line was Washington’s monument, a rough, white stone structure, built by the FreeMasons, on the summit of the mountain. It waa saluted with three cheers by the army. Another ob ect of interest, jvnich, howpver, was not cheered, was the handsome summer home ot Mrs. Madeline V. Duhlsrren, the talented Washington authoress, whose mountain eyrie is perched just on the county line tl.at runs over the mountain. The march to Frederick is sixteen miles, and the men will have a hard pull to make it in one day.

The Celebrated Claimant at Washington—Simon B. Ahren.

Washington, D. 0., April 24.—William McGarrahan, the celebrated claimant to the New Indris mine, died at Providence Hospital at 11:45 a. m. to-day. He had been a familiar figure at the Capitol for years and was well known to a majority ol Senators and members. A bill to permit a trial ot his cose in the Court of Claims was passed by Congress, but was vetoed by President Harrison. Several other bills had been passed by one Honse or the other, and a score of committees hod reported lavorably on the claim. The death of McGarrahan, author of the famous McGarrahan claim, involving several million dollars, which has been be ore Congress lor thirty years, recalls the tact that Benjamin Harrison was the only President who ever vetoed* it, and the late Senator McDonald prepared the only unfavorable report ever presented in Congress on the bill. Public sentiment was always divided as to the merits of bis claim, but the aged claimant was so patient and persistent in urging his case that he had the sympathy of nearly everybody around the Capitol. President Harrison vetoed the bill on technical grounds.

The Industrial Union Discusses CapWen ring—Imported House-Maids.

At the annual meeting of the Industrial Union, held yesterday afternoon at the Propylaeum, the present prosperity of the organization and means of further increasing it were discussed. The work of the employment agency was spoken of at length. Mrs. J. A. Milburn, chairman oi the employment committee, said tn&t while there were many applications lor work, really competent servants were hard to find. She thought that no woman should receive a new servant who could not give recommendations from her last employer. She also thought that the general standard of household service would be raised it the wearing of caps was insisted upon. This would ccntribute to the formation of habits of neatness in all directions. She knew, however, of one woman who had a hundred girls within a week, and all had refused to wear caps. A proposition to send a hundred trained servant girls to Indianapolis, made by an

by Mrs. Ovid B. Jameson, against the contract labor law, but it was thought that the girls might possibly be landed as emigrants. The constitution was amended so that hereafter the twenty-four directors will be divided into three cla.-ses. serving, respectively, one, two and three years. The directors elected were: Mesdames E. F. Hodges, H. B. Holman,

[Special to Tbe Indianapolis News.] Bfookville, April 14.—Prof. Amos W. Butler, of this city, member of the American Society for the Advancement of Science, has just received word from Prof. Charles W. Hargitt that he will take passage for Naples the 1st j of May. By special invitation of Maj. A. H. Davis, | of Syracuse, N. Y.. he goes abroad lor a sci- j entitle revel with the savants at Naples. Professor Hargitt will have the exclusive | use of the American table at the Biological station at Naples for the par pose of making special investigations in his branch of science. This station is the mecca for scientists of every country, and they assemble beie from every clime for investigation and original research m geology, biology, botany and zoology.

C. w. HARGITT, A. M., PH. D.

The station was established nearly a dozen years ago, when a number of tbe leading scientific societies of Germany combined to

make it a success.

Scientific circles of nearly every Enropean nation have since given hearty support to the enterprise and have participated largely in the ;

work that has been done.

‘CHARACTER OF THE INSTITUTION. The institution is under the managementof 1 a body of scientists representing some of the 1 most celebrated organization* of the Old ' World. Anton Dohrn is the director. The character of the work done is the highest, and ! ibe theses prepared by the experimenters are used the world ever as authorities in teaching the various topics on which* they are written. Aside irom the table that Prolessor Hargitt will occupy, the United States is also represented by tables supported by me American Society ior the Advancement orfecience. the Smithsonian Institution and Harvard University. These tables have been established

during the last two years.

To the untiring efforts of Major Davis, of Svracnse, is due the establishment of the American table five years ago. He ga first $500, and has since contributed lari

I its support.

Proiessor Hargitt will have the use of all the i apparatus, the privilege of the botanical gar- | dens, aquaria and the store-houses of speci- ; mens. These privileges extend throngnont

his stay.

• He will make the study of the invertebrate morphology his specialty, th* opportunities offered at the station being unsurpassed, as the auna is most rich there and affords unlimited resource for experiments.

The State Hoard.

Protection from Chicago smallpox is being discussed by tbe State boards of health of this and other Western States that are within direct railroad communication with Chicago. The Indiana State Board, which receives reports of the epidemic there, says that city Is responsible in most cases for the spread of th* disease in this portion of the conntry. Many commnnications are received from other State boards asking as to the progress made at a secret meeting held by several boards at Chicago recently. The Indiana State board denies that it participated in such a meeting, and dees not know that one was held. It is thought that a quarantine against Chicago conld not be established without the aid ot an army of men and heavy expense. The order of the State board to vaccinate all tramps is enforced throughout the State.
