CANTOS' , 0 , , March 25. ( Special Tele-
Kram to Tlio Uec. ) Commander Coxey anil
Ills "army" of 100 vagabonds broke camp In
Masslllon at 8 o'clock tlila morning and began
their long inarch to Washington Just as the
bells In the cathedrals were ringing their
Kastcr enrols. The upoctncleil comnunilcr
was not favored with the best of weather.
The clouds wcio gray and threatened rain
Then the wind swung Into the north and
Mow cold and "Strong , All through the night
the camp tiresW the Commonweal bln/eil on
the meadow , and men In ragged coats and
troUHurx patrolled the ground * ns sentinels.
J'ersnns who did not hn\e the countersign
and who could not dlrplay the linen badge
of the army were not admitted to the camp.
The night was too cold foi comfort. Many
of the thin-blooded Commouuoilers who
could not find warmth and comfort In the
tents applied for lodging at the city pi Nun
When morning came UIOBO who remained In
camp weie given rations of the commissary
wagons.
The breakfast was cooked over fires kin
dled with wood on the banks of the jellow
TuscaruwoB. It consisted of ham , crackers
and coffee. The vagabonds were invenous.
If they had not been choked off byVuai > "
Her , chief of the commissary , they would
lia\u eaten everything the wagons contained.
NO FRILLS ON TIIUM.
Theip was llttlo ceremony associated with
, tie ) stalling of the expedition. The tents
were hauled down In quick time , the Com-
inonwcalerb were told oft In group" ? of flvo
nnd the Imploiib and crazy bummers woie
I/Jiyled to the marshals A crowd of towns-
jieoplc was on the ground as the troops wcio
formed and placed In line Some of the
well dressed spectators laughed nnd Jeered
nt the umvahhed and ragged privates.
"Laugh If jou want to , " Lieutenant Carl
Hrowno said , with a sco.\l on his pasty ,
cla > lHh face , "Yon will find that wo aio
iolng ; to accomplish all we undertake. 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

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"

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-

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

ireservntlon ot their Interests , It U uselesn

polls than are required by necessity , espe
cially wllh a congicss that belloves
nil reveimi-.s nbnvo the noc.'sslty point

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.

SILVER MEN NOT WOUUinO.
The fiee silver men djc not , strange to
any , tearing their hair tonight over thn nn-
nouncemonl that President Cleveland is go
ing to veto Iho Blind seigniorage bill , on llio
ground Hint It was "Oa wessly drawn and
unnecessary , " as he Is lo declare that under
existing authority tha seigniorage can nnd
will bo coined. They claim a vietoiy In the
thought Hint they hnve "fgiccd Die picsldenl
to prom'uo to coin the , rplgnloiago bullion
anyway. " The ndmlnUtr.iflonlsts caj' , with
a wink , that nfter Iho November elections
Iho president will stop tt. proposed coinage ;
lhat ho will open the 'mints Tor n while
"simply to sallsfy Iho sl\Jr ! ; cranks nnd fool
them with the Idea that h5 favors silver nnd
will coin all of it on hard. "

I.lttlo Iliislarss of Importance to Holder
Hint ISoily This YUtk.
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. In accord
ance with the notice glvon , for a reconsid
eration of the printing Ull , bill U Is pre
sumed that his action In this mailer will
depend upon Iho allOjirlanco of senators ,
many of the friends of the bill being now
absent.
Senator Turplo has evinced a desire lo
'lave ' ills resolutions concerning the annex
ation of Hawaii vnte'd upon before the tariff
bill Is taken up , but It Is doubtful , In Iho
race of Senator Dolph's opposition , whether
this can bo done.

WASHINGTON , Marclf 23. The house

Iho house adjourned jesleiday , will be called

already committed to thq pollcj of ( lllbustei-

The republicans will deuinnd ( ho presence

Interfiling Story of JIN Itcnmrkiibln t'.i
peril nco AMille OcnipjIiiR u Cage for
.Month * In the VVlliN of the
Dark Continent.
NfiW YOIIK. March 23. Prof. Klchant L
Gnrner , whose efforts to learn the language
which ho avows belongs lo Hie gorilla am
chimpanzee , and which eurned for him Iho
pseudonym of Iho "monkey man , " roturnei
from his Investlgntlons In Africa on Iho
nirurla loday. 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

and an official icport made. "

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. The
Insurgent sjmpathl/crs claim that the plac
ing of Admiral do Mello at the head of the
provisional government will attract many
persons to the icbel standard , but the gov-
ornuient hero believes Iho Insurgent forces
will giadually melt uvvnj until nothing re
mains The government has 12,000 men at
Harare and morn nt Sno Paulo , and thcso
forces are hclloved to bo moio than sufficient
lo meet any Ihe Insurgnels can bring against
them. It Is icpoiled hero that the rebels
arc ahendy ictriatlng from Hlo Grande do
Sill , and It Is thought by the tlmo Iho gov-
cimncnt reinforcements arrive there will
bo no enemy for them to engage At any'
rate , It Is declared by the government offl-
jClrjlg , . vvhp nio. . tn ( i PQBltlou , tq Jdlow the
exact pOblllo"ii of affairs In the soulh Hint
no battle of conscuuenco Is likely to occur.
Business In llio do Janeiro Is rapidly reviv
ing. 'Ibis Is especially true of houses dealIng -
Ing wllh AinciUan merchants It Is the
general opinion hero that the attitude of the
United Btules during tlio tioublo hero will
result In n material Increase of business
done with the country.
There has , of courhe , been much tulle can
cel nlng the ( light of Admiral da Gama and
his ofllccni on board tlio Portuguese vvai-
shlps. Most of what lias been said In this
connection , pirtluilurly about the trouble
between Iltnvll and Portugal , growing out
cf llio nsyltim afforded Iho Insurgent of
ficers by the commanders of the Portuguese
warships , was simply n blufi ! .
The btory to the effect llio police were
nrresllng ninny foreigners suspected of being
concerned directly or Indirectly with the
revolt Is n gross exaggernt'on. ' As n mailer
of fact the police have airested no forelgneii
'or this reiiHon. Whatever nrrcsls have been
nado were simply for vlolallons of Iho lawn
arrests that aio llkply to occur at any time ,
t can bo pointed out that not n slnglo for
eigner of Impoi lance has been molested.
The correspondents of the various Amcr-
can newspapers have left the city onrouta
o theli homes or nro making prepaiatlonu
or Ihclr departure , which Is evidence thn
