EXAMPLE FOR COXEY - / Washington Anthorities Receive Captain ' Command Without Primrose's Ceremony ! IN CELLS AT THE POLICE STATION Commonweal Army Likely to Bo Given a Similar Reception. LABOR LEADERS EXPRESS INDIGNATION Dcclnro that the Men Will Be Well Defeiided by Able Lawyers , WILL NOT BE TREATED LIKE VAGRANTS CongirnH to I to Adliod to Simprnil the I.iivm JtclilliiK to Disorderly An < inblleii In tbo lnt < rHl of tlm Cohort WASHINGTON , April 8 The uncere monious manner In which the freight car load of unemployed from Cincinnati was taken In charge last night Is a forecast of the reception which awaits Coxey's army. Tomorrow the men will be brought Into pollco court upon charges of vagrancy The local law against vagrants applies to all men without visible means of support , who are destitute and likely to become charges upon the city , who have no avocation or means of gaining a livelihood , or who solicit nlms The penalty Is ninety days In the workhouse at hard labor , but It rests within the discretion of the Judge to accept their promises to leave the city at once or to accept $200 as surety that they will not be come public chaiges. There Is no doubt of the application to the band under Captain Primrose , for the search In the police sta tion shows that the total capital of the company amounts to about JJ. They have received two fairly good meals today nnd have been passlbly comfortable , except for the Ignominy of confinement In colls. Captain Primrose , the leader of the band , may find himself In more .serious trouble than his followers. There Is an old law on the statute books , which vvas passed In IS'iO and has never been repealed , which makes It a misdemeanor to bring Into the District of Columbia- any destitute people who are likely to become public charges , with a penally of from $21 to $30 for each offense The pollco authorities are now con sidering the advisability of bringing u charge of violating this law against the leader. In which case his lines , with the alternative of the workhouse Imprisonment , would amount to a heavy punishment. nxAMPLB ron COXRY. The sjinc charge may be brought against General Coxey if disaster does not overtake the Army of the Commonweal I efors It com pletes Its Itineracy. Of course the vagrancy- act may not be brought Into application against his followers , and besliltf ! hnro are other laviBahl-'i l ' ' ' v'1 o i XL.'ver- tlscd purpose of the Coxey.t s to break. Ono Is the act of congress regulating the use of the capitol Grounds , which forbids any gath ering for demonstration or parade , the mak ing of any oration or use ot threatening language 01 the display of any banner or de vice to ntract attention. The other Is a local law which forbids men to congiegate on the steps of a public or private building. It rests within the discretion of the vice presi dent and speaker of the house to buspeml the capllol regulations for any proper pur pose , an ! perhaps Coxey's agents vvlll apply- to them fet pet mission to carry out their program. Mnjoi Moore , chief of police , said today In speaking of the march of Coxey : "These laws aio on the statute books'and we have no illscr tlon about It. Wo must enforce them If Coxey's army arrives unless con gress should give the men permission to congregate on the capitol steps " 'Iho elctulls of the movement agaln t Coxey Is kept bociet. No doubt he vvlll bo met at the District limits , and If the numbei s ot his army are too great for the pollco to cope with the local mllltla will be called to their aid What to do with the army when It arrives and is taken Into cu&tcdy , If It should li' . Is a difficult question The jails and Btatlon houses of the city will not accommo date such a crowd. To simply repulse the men and forbid them to enter the District would bo to turn them loose on the suburb in residents of Virginia and Maryland , and this Is on aspect of the matter vvlilth gives rise to much uneasiness here. Major Moore has received a letter from the chief of pollco of Alleglmny City , Pa , de scribing the Coxey men In most uiicomnll- niontary terms Ho declaios there are several professional criminals In theli ranks ; that four or five burglailes were committed by them while they were In his city , and that there would have boon moro depredations but for the close pollco surveillance ovei the army during Its stay.

An appeal to the rh h ask ing foi funds to purchase food and trans portation for the Iloston contingent was unanimously adopted. Swift then made a speech In which he de nounced the newspapers In general , chaig- ing them with sending out biased reports about the Coxey movement. Ho said the men following Coxey were like the men who followed John Drown , they weie men with a purpose In view and were willing to tramp and suffer hunger and all other hardships In order to reach the place where the laws are- Hindu to seek amelioiatlon from white slavery. IAS 77A I'llOI'IIKT. New Combination In Nation il Politic n I'ro- peiHed by South Carolhm'H ( lovernor. COLUMBIA , S. C , April 8. ( Special to the Associated Press. ) While the eyes of all the people of the United States , in conse- quoncc of the recent alleged lm > iirieetlon In Darlington , Governor Tlllman comes to the front with the suggestion of an upheaval In national politics. Wh Ic the Associated press correspondent was at the executive mansion today the governor read a letter he had 10- celved from a western populist , In which the vvrltei said that the only thing ho did not admire about the governor's political com so so fat vvas that he did not have the moral courage to come out snutiely and call him self a populist. The governor then called attention to the fact that many of the north ern nnd western papers were speaking of him as a populist governor. Then , aftci a little deliberation , ho iild "Yes , they cill me a populist. I vvlll tell them that I am the true an 1 o ily rep-esen a- tlve of Jeffersonlan democracy in the lead In American politics today Let mo tell you , I don't see anything nhead now but fo rthe Bout lit i M democrats to combine their forces with the western populists and go Into the next national campaign on new party lines Then the northeastern democrats and repub- llcans are now together. It Is a combination of the moneyed interests. " Tlio governor then , turning suddenly , In n somewhat excited anil forcible manner said "I elesplso Cleveland nnd his mugwumps. He Is no better than the rankest of republi cans. Ho has destroyed the ( democratic party. The south and west vvlll be forced to unite and have a complete reorganization of party lines The people who aie afiald of the negro and other questions will have to cast aside their fears on these scores and come together on tlie general line of fighting the combination Cleveland has been under the dictation of the New Yoik bankets and bargaining with them In the mutter of the Issue of bunds He promised the banks If they would take the Issue there would be no legislation on the sliver question by this congress. Congress passed the seigniorage act , and ho vetoed the bill , Indicating plainly the nature of his bargain with the bankers The w hole thhi'j Is such a schema of robbery that he ought to be ! Impeached for It. It Is a shame and a disgrace. The Idea of this great governmtmt having to beg from a lot of Shyloc'cs Is so outrageous that I cannot find language/ strong enough to olmractorl/o It. Cleveland Is owned body and soul by these scoundrels He secured the nomination at Chicago through the In fluence of a subsldlml press , and , with the votes ho lacked there after exhausting such means , ho bought with promises of pation age , which promises have since been re- deemeel The goods have been delivered. His attempt to browbeat and debauch the senators and representatives vvas outrageous In the extreme. " Jll. 16'K.SIf l//l'0\ J A t'HH 1(1 0.

WASHINGTON , April 8 Governor Tllt- man , Bu > Ing that news Is not commerce and that the Interstate commerce has nothing to do with It , has directed attention to a deci sion rendered by a majority of the supreme court In 1877 , bearing Indirectly on the sub ject At that time Chief Justice Walter In delivering the opinion , held that since the case of Gibbons against Ogden , It has nc\cr been doubted that commercial Intercourse Is an element of commerce which Is within the regulation of congress. The question at Issue arose In the case of the I'cntacola Telegraph company against the Western Union. The former , having the exclusive right to establish and mttlntuln telegraph lines In certain counties in Florida , sought to enjoin the latter company from using the right of way of the I'ensatola & Louisville Hallway company , which had been granted to It , to erect telegraph lines on ac count of the exclusive right of the I'cntucohi Telegraph company under Its charter A decree was passed dismissing the bill and an appeal taken to the supreme court The chief Justice , In the course of his opinion , held as follows "Uoth commerce and the postal sci vice are within the powers of congress , became being national In their operation , they should be under the protecting care of the national government The powers thus grunted are not confined to the Instrumentalities of com merce or the postal service known or In use when the constitution was adopted , but they keep pace with the progress of the countiy and adapt themselves to the new develop ments of tlmo and circumstances. They ex tend from the horse with Its rider and the stage coach and steamboat to the railroad and finally to the telegraph , as these new agencies are successively brought Into use to meet the demands of Increasing population and wealth. They were Intended for the government of the business of which they relate at all times and under all circum stances They were entrusted to the geneial gov eminent for the general good of the na tion. It Is not only the right , but the duty of congress to see to It that Intercom be among the states and the transmlsblon of Intelligence Is not obstructed or unneces sarily Inciimbered by state legislation.

MADRID , April S. The governor genera of Cuba has sent to Senator Ileccrra , in In Ister of the colonies , details of the frustra tlon by the government of Cuba of n rcvolu tlonary conspiracy. The leader of the move mcnt , General Gome ? , had collected 2,000 rifles , Intended for the use of Insurgents In Cuba. Gomez vvas directing the movements of the conspirators from San Domingo , ant vvas closely watched by the Spanish consu there. On April 4 Gomez sailed for New York , and all the known facts were com municated to the governor general. The military authorities were advised of the plot , and a close watch was kept to prevent the landing of arms or ammunition. U was learned that a quantity of arms and other contraband munitions of war had been shipped from New York by the steamer Alert by General Marta , the well known In surgent leader. Uy fimlllar methods these arms were passed through the custom house at Nue- vltas and were being taken Into the In terior.

The minister of the colonies nies has bent a dlspitch to the governor , praising him for his action and ordering that he deal In the strictest manner with the olllclals Implicated In the matter. LONDON MOMY .MAKKIT. : High ItnlrH a Thing of the I'nst for Sonic. Time. LONDON , April 8. The high rates In the money maiket this week crumbled away with the release of dividends , which , after allowing for repayments to the' Hank of nnglind , left the market with 2000,000 In hand. The government , moreover , this week made furthei disbursements , which had been delay < xl this year. Thus there Is every prospect of a long spell of ease In the money market , especially as 1,000,000 of foreign gold Is enrotito here. Without a sign of foreign demand the stock market was rather unsettled , but the umlcitone vvas film and hopeful. Specula tive stocks were better patronized. The necesblty for employing the Immense amount of Idle money promises Increased business. There has been a steady Incicabo in foreign bonds Home railway securities showed little change and the market was dull. Amerlci.il railroad securities were Ir regular.
