These poor bojs hnvo not jour clothes , but they Juvo more-bialns than you -ever possessed. " "MjEterlois" Louis Smith , the Unknown , sIlo inndo such an Incendiary speech In Charles street last Tuesday , readily assumed the task of maintaining some sort of mili tary discipline. He , too , told the recruits to Ignore the Jeers of the crowd and to stand In line as soldiers fighting for ti principle. The Unknown was well mounted ; his horse vvns n blooded mare , nnd the saddle In which Jio sat was red and hung with hea\y tiap- plngs. His trousers were creased , nnd the Vlsoi of his blue yachting cap being over tils left eye made him look rakish and grim , lie pinned badges on all the recruits , and , -old them that victory vvas theirs If they " * * but Blood together and marched as men to the slone slops of the capltol at Wash ington.

About two-thirds ot the men en listed made the trip , Coxoy has burled his disappointment o\cr the nonappcaranco ol the myriad ho expected nnd la exultant over the handful who reported for business. MAOH AN ODD SIGHT. The Masslllon camp on the Tuscann pro sentfd nn odd sight early this morning , No fire was permitted In the big tent , but there was n heap of blazing logs outside. livery few momenta Ihe flaps of the tent were parted by n soldier of the Commonweal , who visited the fire to drive uway the chills. Soon he would hurry back to burrow In the slraw for anolher imp and olhcrs would lake his place. The hoboes In the party becnmo known Just before breakfast. They had soap. Some of them washed at the river brink nnd others Carried water In pans and heateil It over the fire. They burned straw nnd frolicked nbout like n tioop of boys. A bugle call to breakfast brought them together nt the te'iit with a rush. The bill of faro com prised bread , coffee and raw meat. At E o'clocH Mauhal Louis Smith , otherwise the I'nknown , summoned the men to camp to gether , nnd they were found lo number ele\en groups. They wcie organl/ed Into a tommuiip. Smith drilled them for halt nil hour. Ho has added several formalities ol military discipline to the rules of Iho Com monweal. One of them Is Ihe plan ot having them march In files of two and a more sur- pilslng Innovation is the addition of mllitniy salutes A man who shouted "Hero lirovvno" at the California reformer half across the field was given a raking over by Smith Among other things , ho said the proper caper was to ask for Chief Marshal Brow no and salute when his attention Js bccured. The eleven groups consolidated to lay nio called the Chicago Commune. A diversion was caused by n bullclln from Coxlana , announcing a sleamcr had just passed that point laden with recruits from Canton. The steamer made Iho Irlp of nini- mllc < In two nnd a half hours , but only a few men from Canton enrolled JUBILANT AT ALLIANCH. ALLIANCE , 0 , March 25. The followers of Coxey In Ibis clly were Jubilant at ( list gustcd Intel when told most of the number rcerulls that stalled wllh Ihe Commonweal aimy In Its march , but Ihey became dis gusted later when told most of the aumber tire tramps. Major Excell has appointed twelve special policemen to assist the regu lar force when the army leaches hero Tuesday. He said that whllo he did not apprehend any trouble whatever , ho made the appointments ns a piecautlonnry meas ure. There Is n well defined belief Mr. Coxey intends to desert Iho army hero ne\t Tues day and go to Chicago on the evening ex press Last Thursday , while returning from 1'lttsburg , Coxey asked n inllrond official of this city nt what time Iho evening west bound express was due to leave here. Wh n Informed It left at S.40 he said he would be ( ompelled to go to Chicago Tuesday night , as ho nud several trotters that he wanted to sell at n horse sale on Wednesday. Ho wild he expected to return nnd take charge ot the army again nt Beaver Tails on Sun day. Bets were offered nt Ihe holels tonight nt 2 to 1 , with no takers , that the army would disband before It reached Pltlsburg. HAS A MORTGAGE TO RAISE. MASSILLON , O. , March 25. In conlra- dlction of the general belief that Co/ey Is wealthy Masslllon people here told those who came hero within the past fuvv da > s that his piopeity Is heavily encumbered.

WASIIINQTON nuiiGAU OP Tiin ncn , 513 Pourteenlh Street. WASHINGTON , March 2fi. Now that the tariff bill Is before the scn- 'alo llio universal question Is. "How lent will It remain there ? " Those persons who hnvo the hope nnd wish to see It sppedll > passed in a few dajs might ns well curb tholr desires nnd mnko up their minds Hint Instead of days It will bo weeks , nnd long weary weeks nt that , before the bill Is any where near Us pissage. One more week will piss wllh the bill In Its dormant state before It really comes up for consideration April 2 will see made tlio preliminary mo tion to tnko up the bill , and then the Hood- gates of oralory will bo opened and for dnjs and da > s Iho senate and Iho country will be deluged wllh tariff tall ; . Within Iho last week I have made a care ful canvass of the senate , not only among the senators themselves , but among official : who hnve been In the cnpltot for jonis anc correspondents who have seen tnrlft bills come nnd go nnd know Ihe workings Iheie- of. The general opinion is Hint It will bo two months before the bill will bo ready for passage. The very lowest limit given Is perhaps that by Senator Voorhees , who saj It will take six weeks lo dl cuss It thor oughly. But , taking Ihe Inlclllgent average , two months Is ns little as tan bo given U Ihe debate and Hie discussion. During April the general discussion for the set speeches on the Inrllt will be made. This part of the piogrnm takes Its even com so without In- lerrupllon , the senators taking as long us they w mt to talk upon the subject. After the morning hour the senator who 1ms an nounces ! that he will speak on that day lakes Iho floor , and ho reads his carefully prepared remarks. He ma ) lake one , tv o , thiee or four hours , and then again he may consume as many dnjs. He talks ns long ns his voice will last , nnd then the senate courteously adjourns until the next day , and ho continues his speech without Interrup tion. tion.Thus Thus It will be seen lliat days and weeks will be consumed In this manner , and the nieiry month of May will bo well under way before the general discussion Is closed and the actual debute begins. I3xactly how long this would lake nn one can decide until after one or two test votes. Each amend ment under the five-minute rule can be dis cussed ay long ,1s desirable , nnd then voted upon. If the lepubllcans and opponents to the bill find tint they are greatly outvoted , but that there Is still some hope of gaining recruits , they will conlest every inch of ground and debate every amendment. If , however , after one or two test votes , It Is found that the opposition can kill or so mutilate the bill that Its death Is certain , a vote nnd n final ono will be pressed nt once , and the debate may bo suddenly closed. Thus J will bo'fjecn how uncertain Is a picdletlon ns to the length of the debale ; but on the oilier hand , how certain It Is Hint It will bo weeks before anything Ilka a final vote can bo had , HOW OTIinU BILLS HAVR GON13 'It was Aprll * 10 when the McKlnloy bill , officially known as the tariff act of 1890 , was reported to the house fiom the ways and means committee. On May 21. 1890 , It passed the house , thus consuming thlrty- live days before the house. The Wilson bill was repoited lo Iho house on December 19 , 1S93 , and passed Tebnniy 1 , 1S94 , being forty-three days before that body. But then It must bo taken Into consideration thai the house adjourned for the holiday recess dur ing that time , and the bill was really before the house about twenty-eight days. But still the tlmo consumed Is what wo are get ting at. The McKlnley bill was received In the senate on May 23 , 1S90 , and was In com mittee until Juno 18 , 1S90 , thus taking twenty-six dajs in committee- . The Wilson bill was rpfened to the senate finance com- tnlllee on Tebruary 2 , 1894 , and was re- poiled to the senate on March 20 , or after being In committee foitj-six dajs , or ex- nctly ncaily double the time the McKInley bill was before the same body. It was Sep- tembei 10 , 1800 , before the bill passed the senate , with amendments , uflei n debate of elghtj-foin dajs , 01 two months and twenty- two dn > s , neaily three months. But this did not make It a law , because the bill had lo go to confeience , and It vvas icfericd to the confeience comnilllco on September 1C , IS'JO , nnd finally passed September JO , IX'JO , 01 utter ( Iffcon days discussion , II was signed on Oclober 1 , nnd became a law. So It icquired from April 1C , 1S90 , to October 1 , 1890 , for the bill to pass both branches of congiesu and become a law , or Ihe months and fourlern day * . In comparing the length of time consumed by the McKlnley and the Wilson bills it must bo taken into consldciatlon Dial one great l)0lnt of diffcienco which now exists Is Inck- Ing In the McKlnley hill. There the prin ciple nlone contended for was one of pro tection , Tlio only objection that the demo- cials made was Hint some of the duties in the McKlnley bill were prohlbltoiy. They opposed It on Its protection grounds alone ; liut now there aio four distinct pioblems contending with the Wilson bill frco trade against protection , revenue , tariff for revenue only and a dlicct taTho contention over Iheso latter will cause n greater debate than natuinlly resulted from the pilnclples Involved In the McKinlcy bill , and hence a longer lime will bo needed , nol onlv In Iho sennlo , but in the conference committee. If the senate consumed nearlj three months discussing the McICInlo } bill. It HOHIUB n very short time for expel IB to limit the delnlo on llio present bill to two months. Whllo the continence committee of 1S90 took only fifteen dn > s to complete the bill , 11 will take moro than double that tlmo to adjust the dlffcicnces between the house and senate on this bill , because Hie differences are so jie.U. Conceded lhat the present tailff bill may jo but two monlhs botorn Iho senate , It will irlug It Into Juno before It passes that body. 1 hen It will go to conference iind the Fourth of July will bo hero and gone before that body finishes It. But this Is rushing the bill at its utmost speed , and the best consensus of opinion today Is that If the bill passes at all It will bo nearer August 1 than June I before the president has a chanca to affix ilx signature to It. MUST nn FUiiTiinn Momnnn. Chairman Voorhees has spent most of the > as-t two dajs nt the Treasury department , ollatlng figuieB for his Btutemunt upon the Inance committee's modifications cf the Wil son tariff bill The senator finds , much to its dlfgnst , lliat the bill as amended by his committee raises $50,000,000 annually more than the expenuos of the government as at iresent administered This will necessitate u further modification of the measure nnd ircclpltato a fight between Income taxes ind the Sugar and Whisky trusts for the ireservntlon ot their Interests , It U uselesn o attempt to favor the trusts and retain nconio taxes In a bill which upon Its fac6 iropniics to raise $50,000,000 more money ivory year under the present volume of 1m- polls than are required by necessity , espe cially wllh a congicss that belloves nil reveimi-.s nbnvo the noc.'sslty point urn unconstitutional. Chnlrmau Vuorboes says U Is nbsujd to talk iboiil striking the Income taxes from the Wilton bill , as they ore stronger than any other feature ot the measure ; that wo will mve Income taxes If any tariff bill Is iJaEsed ; hat the sugar duties must go and that there im > bo reduction * of Interim ! revehue tas. . lo will not listen to the proposition to leave ho whisky taas at present , for the Whisky rust wants an | ncrca o and the distillers de- nnnil an extension of the bonded period , and Hut can rnly be secured by "a com pensitory concession" In 'the ' way of an In creased tax. According : ( o thp calculations of the democrats , there cnn bo n reduction of revenues In the bill emml to that made by striking out the Increase nf whisky tax , the Income taxes nnd the mirdir duties , for with lower duties there In to He nn enormous In crease of Imports , as Uncland Is to supply us with manufactures. The Hoosler senator Is just now In n painful ctcw. MANDUHSON ON AWOUTIONMENT. Senator Manderson has written n lellcr to Chairman J. H. Munlcy of the executive committee ot the republican national com mittee nt Augusta , MlT , , giving his views upon the ipipsllon of the number ot dele gates who shall compose Ihe next national convention nnd the method of their distribu tion. In the course uf hU letter Manderson snjs : * "Hulo II , adopted by-dm last nitlonil re publican convention , provldew for the Issu ance of the call , the time when It shall Issue , and the way by which delegates lethe the convention shall bo elected. It also provides for the selection of alternates , and suggests only by the .merest Inference the number who shall constitute the convention and the method of their distribution. I be lieve that the plan pressed by Hon. N. I ) . Scott proposes n propec basis for represcntn- llon. It Rives -each stale and each con- giesslonal district a reprcsciltnllvc In the convention , and rccognl 's , as I think U should , the localllles where republican voles elect republican presidents. The only ob jection I see to the plan proposed Is lhat In the southern states , which would lose In representation by the iHlabllshment of the rule proposed by Mr , Stfott , Ihero Is a sup pression of republican voles , which suppres sion results In their losing representation In the convention , This1-bwever. Is n matter that while unfortunate cannot under exist ing conditions bo remedied 1 have no question but that the national conimllleo has Iho right to Issue the cull upon the 1 asls suggested by Mr. Scott , t ml that such action by the commlltep would be wise and imlllle. Of course It Is within Ilia power of Iho con- venlton when It shnll ( neet to provide Hint the delegntcs to the convntlon shall bo com posed of lliose who OTP seleclcd by the former plan , and to ruly out those who have been based upon the republican voles cast In congressional district at the presidential election In 1S92. If , therefore , the commit tee shall blunder In making the call accoul- Ing to the Scott lesotut ftu , It Is within the power of the convention 'when It shnll meet to correct Iher mistake.

WASHINGTON , March L'5 This week the senate will probably bo given up largely to mailers ot minor Importance. The McGar- rahan bill IK on Iho calendar as unfinished business and will have tho.right ot way after 2 o'clock Monday. There will be an effoit to dispose of this bill liofoio the close of the week , and Senator Ilansbrough has given nollce lhat he will ngnliv call up HIQ Russian thistle bill Immediately after .Iho disposal of the McGnnnhnn bill. Senator Dalph ulso Intends lo make nn effort. If Iho occasion , occurs , lo have Ihe bill for relief of cer- laln seniors on Iho publlij lands considered. The fortifications appropriation bill Is now on the calendar and In position to ba taken up for uclloii nt any time Senator Han Is may plso'mo e.

The professor said tonight his journey had been an absolute MICCCSS. "I left here , " said he , In July , IS'.L' . Afler considerable dltlluilly In securing funds am making preparallons for Iho journey , I gel nwny from Liverpool nnd In the follow I tip December I went through the lake regions enough to gel Information about the nnlmnlH Inhabitants and conditions of the country for my pin pose. Afler Ihls Journey I hnvo rrluined lo Lake roranvesce , llnougli which I had already passed. There I found n suit able place to erect my cage I located ono mile from the lake In a dense Jungle , for Iho gorilla will nol live In an open country I was on Hie south side of HIP lake , nbout Iwo degrees toiith of the equator. I do not know the longitude , but It wns nbout ono diy'n journej to the hencoasl In n direct line. I Imd been mhlsed bj Ihe natives that It wns Hie best slluntlon in Houthwpslein 'Afrlci to find goiillas. In this locality many had been captuied by white hunteis "I slung the cage with assistance ol three natives The cage consisted of a net work of steel rods five-sixteenths of nn Inch thick. I biought it with mo In eight sec tions , each sl\ feet six Inches in length The sections weighed forty-five pounds In all. I anchored It with three hravj chains passed over the roof As a precaution , n net work of steel wire was tin own around Iho rods ns u guard. The roof vvas made of bamboo , nnd I had with me a canvas taipaiilln In c.ibe of rain Mj * effects con sisted of household utensils , two revohcrs , ono mugnrlnc rllle , one air gun and hollow arrows filled with prusslc ueld , which I dis charged with blow guns. "The best safeguard I Iind was a device ot my own Invention. It vsas a bag like a large canteen , filled with concetrated ammonia , lo which wns altaciipd a hose thirty Inches long , with a noizle through which I could force Hie fumes ot Iho am monia , which would suffocalo n goillla len feet nwny. The cage stood on a foundation tin ce or four foot from the ground. I had no phonograph , as the ono ordeicd from Hdlson on May " , 1S93 , nevei reached me. I had the invoice and was verj much dMp- polnled , as It would have aided me vciy materially In my. experiments Unfor tunately , my photographic apparatus failed to work alao. " HIS CXPRIUKNCK IN TUG CAGR. "f went Into Iho cage alone on April 23 , 1S93 , and remained In It until August 0 following. Of course I cuine out for short Intervals. Tor my joung chlmpan/ee , Moses , which I had with me , I built a hut outside not far from the cage. During the long months he was my only companion most of the time. Wo dined together , and on Ihese occasions Moses vvas not confined , but went In nnd out at will On some oc- cislons he behaved very badly , for HIP pll- iiuetlo of Ihe race Is not ulwajs perfect , Then F would pul him out. I saw n gieit many gorillas. I think I t-aw more than any other white man living. My position was Mich that gorillas would como close und 1 could hit calmly nnd pturty every detail of movement and expression. I nevei had oc casion to use my gun but once. Then I cocked It and aimed It at a gorilla to rescue my pet dog , but before 1 filed the gorilla be came frightened and ran away. I have &ocn only two or three goiillas while outside of the cage , but hud every advantage within the cage. Many Hilngs which I have rend before and since my icscarches In-magazine arllelcs nnd natural hlslory about the goillla are fiction. "I have leained not more than six or eight words ot the chimpanzee language. Thc e I cannot give you , for they arc not amendable to any known etymology or oithography. I cannot pronounce them. If I could 1 would willingly give Hiem to you. I think there nro nbout foity or fitly words 01 utteianees In theli language. The coilllas ceitalnly luvo marital relations , but no commodity. I learned from the natives Hint they are polygamlsts. However , I urn ciulle balislled they keep the name female as , a wlfo foi many years. I have seen groups of three or tour , In which Is nlwnjs one male only. It Is very clear to me that they have n patrlarchlal form of government. "I wus assmed by n man I b llovo lo be truthful that he had seen a goiilla bitting * on the ground eating plalnlnlns They were brought by oinpr mnio gorinas in ins sup posed majesty after being gathered by fe males. The only thing which Inclines mo to doubt the story Is the fact that the gorilla rarely eats the plalntaln Itself , but lives on the meat of the htalk of the plaintain Iree , which ho teurs to pieces. The gorillas are ut full maturlly al eight or ten jeaiH They do not build houses and uio not carnivorous but omnivorous. Their vocal oigans nro al most exactly lIKe thofco of man. "They uro not nearly so vicious ns described. When they would approach my cugo they would toke ono peep , und turn nwaj wholly unconcerned. The natives told mo If I blackened my face they might take moro interest. 1 had twelve atlacks of fevci In nlno mo'iths. The natives , llko myself , ale firmly butlsftcd the gorilla nnd chimpanzee tribes have a language. 1 brought back to London with mo two chlmpinzees They died soon utter their debut In clvlll/ntlon I preserved their skins nnd skulls. 1 also In ought the vocal organs of four ihlnipaiuces and tlirce gorillas nnd the brain of ono goi Ilia , Thu brain f > t Iho chlmpanrco which died In London was sent to Oxfoul al HIP request ot the unlvoislty , whoia It will be examined and an official icport made.

The usual lellfj- lotis piocesslons wcro held nnd the church services wcro very largcl ) attended. Tor months past the city has been filled with troops nnd almost ovcrj thing partook of n military chaiacter. Now the troops , or ut least the grcaler number ot thorn , have gone boiith to reinforce the government forces , where the Insurgents are sllll oppos ing Ihe fedeial authorities. The harbor has been deserted by nil the foreign warships , and Iho loading and discharging of merchant vewholh Is pi acceding an before the revolu tion. tion.Tho The government entertains no fear of much further trouble In the south.
