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 Cotcj's army. Tomorrow the men will be brought Into police court upon charges of vagrancy. The local law against vagrants applies to nil 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 llvcllhcod , or who solicit alms. 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 thej will not be come public clmiges. There Is no doubt of the application to the band under Captain I'rlmrose , for the search In the police sta tion shows that the total capital of the company amounts to about $2. They have received two fairly good meals today and have been passlbly comfortable , except for the ignominy of confinement In colls. Captain Primrose , the leader of the band , may nnd hlnibelf In more .serious trouble than his followeis. Thete Is an old law on the statute books , which was pabscd , In 1810 and has never been repealed , which makes It a misdemeanor to bring Into the District of Columbia- any destitute people who arc likely to become public charges , with a penalty of from $2ri to $30 for each offense. The police authorities are now con sidering the advisability of bringing a 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.

It rests within the discretion of the vice presi dent and speaker of the house to suspend the capltol regulations for any proper pur pose , and | > erliaps Coxey's agents will apply to thenj for permission to carry out their Major Moore , chief of police , said today In speaking of the march of Co\ey : "These laws aio on the statute books'and we have no ellhcrUlon about It. Wo must enforce . them If Coscy's army arrives , unless con gress should give the men pel mission to congiegatp on the capltol steps " The details of the movement against Co\ey Is kept bccict No doubt ho will bo met at the District limits , and If the numbeis of his army are too great for the policeto cope with the loc.il militia will be culled to their aid.

To simply repulse the men and forbid them to enter tlio District would bo to ( urn them loose on the stibiirb-in residents of Virginia and Maryland , and this Is an aspect of the matter which gives rise- to much uneasiness hero. Major Moore has received a letter from the chief of police of Allcglmny City , Pa. , ele- Bcrlhlng the Coxey men In mobt uncompli mentary 'teims. Ho dedaics theio arc teveral piofcsslonal crlmlnils In their ranks ; that four or five burglailes wore committed by them whllo they were In Ids city , and that there would have been morn depicitations but for the close police surveillance over the army during Us stay 4- Colonel Hedstone , the Washington repre sentative of Coxey , said concerning the men nrrestod--last night"This body of men Ib not connected with the Commonweal army , as no Coxey men will como on until word Is previously sent to our headquarters , and none will como In disorder 01 without mil itary discipline.

Xetr Ciiniblimtlon In Nation il I'olltltN Pro posed by So n Hi Ciirullnu's doirrmir. COLUMIHA , S. C. , April 8. ( Special to the Associated Press. ) While the eyes of all the people of the United States , In consequence quence of the recent alleged liibiiricetlon in Darlington , Governor Tlllman comes to the front with the suggestion of an upheaval In national politics. Wh Ie the Associated press correspondent was at the executive mansion today the governor read a letter he had re ceived from a western populist , In which the writer bald that the only thing he did not admire about the governor's political couise so far was that he did not have the moral courage to come out squaiely 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 goveinor. Then , after a little deliberation , ho said : "Yes , they call mo a populist. I will ted them that I am the true an 1 o ily rep-esen a- tive of .leffersonlan democracy in the lead In American politics today. Let me tell you , I don't , see anything ahead now but fo rthe southeia democrats to combine tholr forces w'lth the webtern populists and go Into the next national campaign on new party lines. Then the northeastern democrats and repub licans' ure now together. It is a combination of the moneyed Interests. " The governor then , turning suddenly , In a somewhat excited and forcible manner said "I debpiso Cleveland and his mugwumps , lie is no better than the rankest of republi cans. IIo has destroyed the ( democratic paity. The south and west will be forced to unite and have a complete reorganization ot party lines. The people who are afraid of the negro and other questions will have to cast aside their fears on those scores and come together on the general line of fighting tlio combination. Cleveland has been under the dictation of the New Yoik bankcis and bargaining with them in the mutter of the Isbtio of bonds. He promised the banks If they would take the Issue there would be no legislation on the silver question by this congress. Congress passed the seigniorage act , and ho vetoed the bill , Indicating plainly thn nature of his bargain with the bankers The whole thins Is such a bclipine of robbery that he ought to be1 Impeached for It. It Is n hlmina and a disgrace. The hlea of this great government having to beg from n lot of Shy locks lj so outrageous that I cannot find language/ strong enough to clmractcrl/o It. Cleveland In owned body and soul by thebo scoundrels. Ho secured the nomination at Chicago through the In fluence of a subsidised press , and , with tlio votes he lucked there after exhausting such means , ho bought with promises of pation- age , which promises have since been re deemed Tlio goods have been delivered. His attempt to browbeat and debauch the senators nnd representatives was outrageous ] in the extreme. " Jll. It'/v .S.M.I/.M' \ v.V CHIC IOO.

A ciso of black small pox caused tlio liveliest kind of a commotion In the Harris street police street btatlem this evening.

The victim's name was Uenson Sherman , hut nothing further has been ascertained regaidlng him. At I o'clock In the afternoon ho was brought to the police station by a man who Informed the desk sergeant that Sherman was drunk and asked the police to lock him up until lie. was sober. This was done and about four hours after the lockup keeper noticed that Shei man's face had turned black.

WASHINGTON , April 8 Governor Till- man , saying 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 \Valtc In delivering the opinion , held that since the case of Gibbons against Ogdcn , It has never been doubted that commercial Intel course IH an clement of commerce which Is within the regulation of congress. The question at Issue arose In the case of the Pcnssacola Telegraph rompany against the Western Union. The former , having the exclusive right to establish and maintain telpgraph lines In certain counties In Florida , sought to enjoin the latter company from using the right ot way of the Pensacola & Louisville Railway company , which had been granted to It , to erect telegraph lines on ac count of the exclusive right of the I'cnsicohi Telegraph company under Its charter , A decree was passed dismissing the bid and an appeal taken to the supreme court. The chief Justice , In the course of his opinion , he-Ill : IH follows ! "Both commerce and the postal service are within the powers of congress , became being national In their operation , they should be under thoprotectlng 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 progrebs of the countiy and adapt themselves to the new develop ments of time and circumstances They ex tend fiom the horse with Its rider and the stage coach and steamboat to the railroad ami 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 foi the government of the business of which they relate at all times and under all circum stances. They were entrusted to the general 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 Intercouibo among the states and the transmission of intelligence Is not obstructed or unneces sarily incumbered by state legislation.

WASHINGTON , April 8 If the plans of the clemociatlc leaders of the senate do not miscall y , the bcnate will devote Itself almost exclusively this wee-k to the con- sldciatlon of the tariff bill. Their plan is to have the bill taken up e > ac-h day Immedi ately after the conclusion of the i online morning business , which means that tbe > deslie as much of the moinlng bom , which usually lasts until 2 o'clock , as possible , and cut out the discussion of miscellaneous subjects , many of which aie Intiodueeel when a question like the tuilff bill Is nniler discussion for the , purpose of obtaining elelay. They may not succeeel In getting such an oidei as this , but the c-IToit In that direction Is a declination of their Inten tion of crowding the debate along us lapldly as possible. The democratic- mem bers of the finance committee will aiso undertake to extend the dally sessions until G o'clock , which will most likely be le- slsteel by the lepubllcnns. Gieat interest Is lelt In Senator Hill's speech , which Is announced foi tomorrow. It is known fiom foi mer uUeiances that he Is opposed to the Income tax nnd that while the bill was In committee he sought to have many changes made In the selieel- ules , mill obtained the wholesale adoption of the ad valorem sjstem ; that , Indeed , at that time the bill , as a whole , founil vei > little favor In his eyes. It Is not believed he has e hanged his mind , but he has been I % eiy reticent since the thiee davs' caucus. ! Whether Mr. Hid will peak tomouovv In nceoielance with his minoune-ement will depend upon Mr. I'effer. Ml.

MADRID , April 8. The governor general of Cuba lias sent to Senator Hccerra , min ister of the colonies , details of tlio frustra tion by the government of Cuba of a revolu tionary conspiracy. The leailer of the movc- ment , General Gomez , had collected 2,000 rifles , Intended for the use of Insurgents In Cuba. Gomez was directing the movements of the conspirators from San Domingo , and was closely watched by the Spanish consul there. On April 4 Gomez Balled for New York , and all the known facts wore 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. It 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. liy familiar methods these arms were passed through tlie custom house at Nuc- vltas and were being taken Into the In terior. A military detail followed the train hearing the smuggled arms and came upon them at I'orto I'rlnclpe , fort-six miles botith of Ntim'lt.is. A raid was made on the train and 200 revolvers and several thousand rifles were seized. The customs cmplojes sus pected of having been bribed to permit the landing of the contraband munitions of war have been suspended and a strict Investiga tion will be made. The minister of the colonies nies has sent a dispatch to the governor , praising him for his action and ordering that , he deal In the strictest manner with the ofllclalb Implicated in the mutter. LONDON MONKY MAUKin' . High ItiiU-fi Thing of tlio I'ust for Sonic Time. LONDON , April 8. The high rates In the money market this week crumbled away with the release of dividends , which , after allotting for repayments to the" Bank of England , left the market with 2,000,000 In hand. The government , moreover , this week made furthci disbursement ! , , which had been delayer ! this jcar. Thus there Is every prospect of a long spell of case in the money market , especially as 1,000,000 of foreign gold is cnroute here. AVIthout a sign of foreign demand the stock market was rather unsettled , but the undertone was Him and hopeful. Specula tive stocks were better patronized. The necessity for employing the Immense amount of Idle money promises Increased business. There has been a steady Incieabo In foielgn bonds Homo railway securities showed little change and the market was dull. American railroad securities were Ir regular.

CHICAGO , April S John M. Thurston of Omaha arrived In the city today from St. Paul. Mr. Thurston said the decision of Judge Caldvvcll In the Union Pacific has relieved the receivers of the responsibility of cutting down the wages of the thousands of cmplojes on the road , but It has not settled the vvago question. "Under the decision of Judge Caldwell , " said Mr , Thurston , "tho receivers liavo no power to reduce the wages of the employes who were involved In the proceedings In court. This includes the engineers and lire- men and all thu trainmen. The other em ployes , shopmen , clerks and all those holdIng - Ing salaried positions had tholr pay reduced last September , when a cut from 10 to 20 per cent was made The employes Imvo now come Into court and petitioned for a restora tion of their old salaries Judge Caldvvcll held that the present schedules for the trainmen were just and proper and should not ho reduced by the receivers. The other cmplojes now t-ay If'tho trainmen's sched ules are right the reductions of their wages were wrong and their positions seem logical and unassailable. The rate of wages paid on the Union Pacific Is1 higher than Is paid on other roads and the receivers deemed the reduction necessary and hot unjust , consid ering the situation in which the road Is placed.

That Is the color given the situation by both sides. The employers talked plainly at their meeting Saturday. Their only rei- son foi deferring the proposed lockout from today until Wednesday , they maintained , wn not to avoid a lockout , but to draw their lines moio closely for the coming light. Tim men seem eepially determined and confident. Hoth bides , particularly the men , arc wait ing. The bohses have declared their Inten tions nnd aio waiting for the appointed tlmn to put them Into effect. The men have heirel the declaration of war and have looked to their baggage wagons and haversacks. That is all that will probably b3 done until the lockout U declined WOKKHUS MAKING HEADY. Today was a great day at labor head quarters. The only work done having anvr bearing on the Impending fight was in * ! f * meeting of the architectural Iron workers.

This will be a unique light between capital and labor and Its impoitunco Is enhanced by Its very uniqueness. Os tensibly the wage question will not flguie In the empleijers' sldo of It. The men claim that the bosses are animated wholly by a. desire to reduce wages and are trying to g"t the unions out of the way to that end.
