NEWS FROM COUNCIL BLUFFS
Kelly's ' March Relieves a Lot of Pressure on
the Tiaild Railroad Men ,
TRAIN SERVICE MAY SOON BE RESTORED
Departure of tlm liidii.HtrlnU ItrifMiircx llio
.MnRimtm , Who May J ow TiiUo Up
the Ordinary Hun of lliilnc
Tim .SKiiiitliin.
The fcnrs of the- city , county and state
officials that ycstcnlay would bo n tlay to
be remembered for life proved to bo ground
less. Kelly's departure seems to hnvo
knocked tlir- bottom tout of all the enthusl-
asm which was full In labor circles , and
tlio mob of 10,000 or moro people eager to
commit Rome depredation which Itvns hoped
might tend to bring the railway corporations
to a realization of the sympathy felt for the
Kellyltcs failed to materialize. Great prep
arations had been made by the authorities
for the reception of the mob In case It should
put In an appearance. The mllltla In every
town In the western half of Inwn , numbering
1,200 nun , had been notified to report for
duty at a moment's notice- , and every mili
tiaman slept with one ear listening for the
call to arms.
One thing that helped Council Bluffs out In
UK hour of adversity was the fact that the
railroads were not yet run n Ing their tralnn
regularly , so that any one who felt In
clined to come In and watch for fun could
have no assurance an to when he would bo
able to go back home. The Kansas City road
took advantage of the rumors of Impending
danger and undertook to run un excursion
train from Kansas City to Omahu at a rate
of $2 for the round trip , but for some reason
or other It was not .at all liberally patron
ized.
ized.The
The chief of police , sheriff and mayor on
this side of the river had sent requests to
their colleagues In Omaha that the people of
that city should be encouraged to stay at
homo , and the efforts of the Nebraska ofli-
clals to keep them at home , coupled with
the fact that there was very little probabil
ity of there being any excitement , made
these efforts successful.
It was found unnecessary to appoint deputy
United States marshals , as had been ex
pected. Uy request of the local authorities ,
however , the marshal at Omaha appointed
deputies and stationed them at the west end
of the Union I'aclllc bridge , In order that any
mob that might cross that bridge and bead
for the transfer depot might be headed oft.
The Wubash was the only road leading
Into the city that maintained Its equilibrium
throughout the excitement , and kept going
right along about Its business. While It
never missed a passenger or freight train , It
did not get Its trains through always on
time. It seemed to be out of the vortex all
the time , but Friday and Saturday Its freight
engines were stopped at Mlnnoola and the
yard engines brought the freight trains In
In small sections. During the three days of
the tleup , It delivered eighteen cars to local
merchants and other roads willing to receive
them , and ten cars to the Union Pacific , and
had forty cars of coal ready to deliver to the
switching crews of other roads , but for forty-
eight hours all such favors were declined
with thanks. The Hurllngton people had a
number of cars of coal consigned to the
water works , and the water works people
were clamoring for It , and they offered
liberal Inducements to the Wabash crews If
they would set the cars on the reservoir
sidetracks. These offers were also declined ,
for at the time there were 2,000 Omaha men
looking for anything In Jlie shape of an
engine , and they were just then marching
past the water works.
With the exception of the Rock Inland and
Milwaukee lines , pasenger and freight -traffic ;
was generally resumed by the Iowa yester
day afternoon. All the other evening trains
went out on their schedule lime. The North
western was In the best condition to recover
breath , and was the first to get a train out.
Activity In the yards was resumed very
slowly. There seemed to be a timidity no
ticeable even In the locomotive whistles ,
and the switch engines moved with a cau
tion that seemed to suggest u fear that there
might lie pomo Commonwonlorn yet lurking
In the yards ready to pounce upon the roll
ing stock and run It out to Kelly. Dy this
mornlrg there will be little else to Indicate
that troublous times have existed but the
Immense gorge of freight that will be poured
into "the yards from all directions.

Dr. I'oiilNim l > uid. :
Dr. P. William Pottlson died Saturday
night about midnight at Ills home , C01
Broadway , very suddenly , of heart disease.
For several days past he has been consider
ably excited over the presence of Kelly's
army , and the sensational events that have
been witnessed In the city. He was In warm
sympathy with the working classcss , and
the excitement was too much for his heart ,
which has always caused him more or less
trouble. Saturday night , after holding con
versation with General B. V. Test for some
little time , ho went home , but almost Im
mediately after reaching there , while pre
paring for bed , he suddenly dropped upon the
bed , In what was apparently u fainting fit.
Ills wife was alarmed and ran to a neighbor
ing room , gave the alarm , and u physician
waa Immediately called In. IIu was too late
to bo of any service , however , for Dr.
Poulson died about live minute * after the
attack was first noticed. The funeral will
occur Tuesday afternoon at 2 o'clock from St.
Paul's church , although the doctor was a
firm believer In the doctrine that the dead
are. always burled too early In this country ,
and had frequently asked that his body be
kept without embalming for eight days after
death. Dr. Poulson was G9 years of age.
Ho was born In Copenhagen , Denmark , and
In 1SSG was married In Sacramento , Cal. , to
Susan A. Staples. Ho came here from Oak
land , Cal. , lust December , having resided
there for eight years previous. He was a
member of the Lutheran church. Besides
his wife , ho leaves two children , Hiram and

land , Washington : At first thought It may
seem to the national authorities that the
simplest way of dealing with these penni
less unemployed persons who are pressing
their way across the country to the capitol -
tel would bu to employ some form of 'strict
and stern repression. ' This Is the opinion
of the Army anil Navy Heglster , which calls
upon you to gather In the regular army to
protect yourself , the congress and the na

fellow citizens. The custom Is un old one
of resorting to a liberal use of bullets

there will have to be a readjustment of the

President I'rcpnrlni ; to Knforce tlie Majesty
of tin * Law Agulnst Coxry.
WASHINGTON , April 22. ( Special Tele
gram to The Bee. ) President Cleveland is
said to be greatly disturbed over the pro
posed visitation of Coxey's army , and he
has not only sought advice on the subject
from members of his cabinet and others In
authority , but today he had a long confer
ence with the chief of police. Major Moore.
Acting upon the advice of those whom he
had consulted , he has decided to Issue a
scml-ofllclal proclamation , admonishing all
persons who contemplate visiting the na
tional capital that they must respect the
laws ami conduct themselves in a peaceful
and respectful manner , or suffer the cense
quences.
The action of the president In this matter
In rrfittrded un n profound secret , lienca It Is
dlfllcult to learn the contents of the forth
coming proclamation. It is understood that
In substance It will say that there Is no ob
jection to Commonwealers visiting Wash
ington with peaceful intent , and that every
right under the constitution will be accorded
them while they are. here. It will also state
that there are laws regulating the assem
blage and parading of organized bodies
through the streets of the city , which must
be respected. Any attempt to dlsutrb the
public peacs or Incite riotous conduct by
word or deed will be promptly dealt with
by the local authorities , and , If necessary ,
by the national government.
The president Is supported In this action
by the course of at least two of his pre
decessors In the executive mansion. During
Buchanan's administration when the "know
nothing" party disbanded some of the rem
nants of the defunct political organization
determined to proceed to Washington , with
the Intention of forcing congress to adopt
certain legislation In conformity with the
views entertained by them on political tinil
religious questions. The mob arrived In
Washington and proceeded to commit a num
ber of overt acts against the peace. Presi
dent Buchanan Issued a declaration of warn
ing to them and subsequently ordered out
the United States marines and drove the
peace breakers out of the city.
' A more recent Instance Is given In
connection with the Inauguration of
Hayes and Wheeler In 1870 , when
some of the friends and support
ers of Tllden threatened to send 100,000 un
armed men to Washington to prevent the
Inauguration of Hayes and Whoeler. On
that occasion President Grant made a. state
ment through the newspapers advising people
ple not to come to Washington , unless they
could como In a peaceful , orderly manner ,
and thereupon ho ordered n number of reg
ular troops to be temporarily stationed in
Washington for any emergency that might
arise.

LINCOLN , April 22. ( Special Telegram to
The Bee. ) The committee appointed last
night to make arrangements for the organ
ization of a regiment of the Industrial army
has been In session the most of the day
at Central Labor union hall. The enthusiasm
evinced last night shows no glens of abate
ment , nlthouch it Is believed that by to
morrow the sober second thought will In
duce the promoters of the movement to drop
the project. It has been decided to Invlto
recruits from all towns In Nebraska , Lincoln
to bo headquarters for the proposed army.
II. A. Duff. E. T. Stewart and L. W.
Emerson were today appointed as recruiting
ofllcers , and they have opened up a recruitIng -
Ing ofllcc In Knights of Labor hall. The
plan Is to enlist all worklngmon of the state
an members of the ivjniy. but It Is planned
that the largo majority of the members
will stay at home mid rustic for supplied
to bo nont after the nrmy..Although no other
subject seems to bo ( slkol of , the railroad
offlclala here show no' uneasiness , and evi
dently do not believe that any formidable
number of men will attempt to leave

Crowd * from Onmtm.
Although a mcetliiBJof Kelly sympa
thizers was called foe JtHcrson square at 10
o'clock yesterday morning , u fulled to ma
terialize. A few laboring men and mechanics
gathered there , more * ' bill' ' of curiosity than
because of any set frurp'oso , but they did
not remain long aflor'thoy ' became convinced
that there was not to bo a large assemblage.
They drifted from there to Knights of Labor
hall , where for an hour or two n couple
of dozen men hung around the font of the
stairs , but that was the extent of the dem
onstration. By 12 o'clock the last of them
hud disappeared. The positive annouc'inent
by nenernl Kelly through the morning
papers that ho proposed to start early In
the day on his march to the eastward
seemed to bo accepted by the great majority
as settling the matter so far as trains were
concerned , and the opinion expressed by the
few who did turn out was that from this
time on all surplus energy would be directed
to raising money and provisions to help the
army , Instead of calling meetings to organize
seizure parties to capture englnea or com
mit other unlawful acts.
Ex-Congressman W. H. XI. Pnscy and
United States Marshal Bradley came over
from the Bluffs during the fomioon and vis
ited the ofllrc of United States Marshal
White. .Mr. Pusey appeared to be the rep
resentative of the Iowa roads centering In
the IllutTs , and was very much alarmed over
the possibility of another crowd of Omaha
citizens going across the river and doing
damage to the property of the railway cor
porations. Ho had gotten Marshal Bradley
to try to head off such a possibility , and this
was the object of the call on Mr. White.
That official , however. , had Just left for his
homo at Plattsniouth. and the visitors levleJ
on Deputies Ccggeshul ! and Llddiard. A call
was then made on Judge Dundy , and the
caus ? of alarm was stated to him. The jtidg-
said that he could do nothing except witli
a view to protecting the property of the
Union Pacific , which was In the hands ot the
court , and that If It became necessary ho
would take steps looking lo that end.
Mr. Pnsry then telephoned to Marshal
Wlilte nt Plattsniouth , and then sent a mes
senger to Mayor Bemls , requesting an Imme
diate .conference at the Pax-ton. The mayor
complied with the request , but did not agree
that there was any cause for uneasiness. Ho
said that the proposed meeting at Jefferson
square had not materialized , and that there
was no excitement In the city whatever on
account of the Kelly army. Ho did not be
lieve that there was any occasion for taking
any further precautionary steps at this time ,
and assured the visitors that so far as ho
could learn their fears of another demonstra
tion from this side of the river were entirely
without foundation.
Marshal Bradley coincided with this view ,
but said that he had been besought by the
people ncrobs the river to make a move to
prevent any possible trouble , and he had
complied with It , as he wanted to do all
that he could to allay their fears , even though
he considered them groundless.
After talking over the matter for sonic
tlmo the visitors returned to the Bluffs ,
where they said a mass meeting was sched
uled for liayllss park at 4 o'clock In the
afteriucn. :

HAGERSTOWN , Md.- , April 22. After
three days stop in this place , the Coxey co
horts are preparing 'to ' nlarch on Frederick.
There were rumors tonight that Browne
would remain encamped , here till the re

The road by the natlonal.plke will throw the
burden of entertalnlhg . 'yie army on Urban ,
Clarksburg , Mlddletown "and Galthersburg.
Browne tonight , in speaking of the pro
posed camp In the ursenal urotindH , said he
had concluded the grounds around the
foot of the Washington monument would
be moro convenient and appropriate , and
announced he would telegraph Colonel Red-
stone to make a request for the grounds on
the secretary of war. Mayor Fleming of
Frederick Is preparing a frosty reception
for the army. He has announced that no
public meetins will be allowed unless In a
hall , and that there will be no parade on
the street. Browne snys ho would like to
see the mayor stop a procession of American
citizens with the American flag at Its head.
The Sunday services In Camp Nazareth
were attended by a crowd of 1GO persons.
Fifty dollars In all was taken In at the gate.
Urowne doffed his boots and sombrero In

was held at which Browne lectured on
finance. The general order for the night
stated the start would be made at 10 a. in. ,
and the camp named Daniel Boone.
NEW YORK , April 22. General Jacob
Schler Coxey spent today In the city quietly

Kansas City Journal : Wo repret to see
the spirit manifested In n portion of tha
press and by public ottlclnls toward the
"Commonweal" movement In ninny respects.
Of course many nniKiii.il and ludicrous
things occur , and the popular sense of the
humorous or grotesque must have expres
sion. Hut there are some grave features to
these things that may , by titnvlse action , re
sult In a tragedy people little dream of. The
most daring of men Is the sincere und hon
est fanatic.
Here are some facts : The Coxey con
tingent of a Rcneral movement extending
from ocean to ocean Is Hearing the capital
of the nation. Tills body of several hun
dred has marched from the Interior of Ohio
without a crime being perpetrated or a dep
redation committed and fed by the charity
and bounty of the people voluntarily con
tributed.
In Iowa , when a sympathetic people seized
a locomotive and madu up a train to take
Kolly's company away from tholr eold and
exposed condition , they refused to ride In n
train thus secured and reaolved to go afoot.
Now , these men may be foolish , may be
cranks and all that , but they are not crimi
nals. They evidently are serious In what
they are about.
Hut there la another fart that sober-
minded people will take note of the popu
lar sympathy : Coxey's followers and all
others have been fed , housed and provided
for by the sympathy of people well-to-do
and able to do It. Those men and the o who
feed them are all citizens and emml before
the law and , as shown , respecters of the
law and the rights of property.
Then there Is another feature : Read care
fully the. report from Council llliiffs and
Omaha In yesterday's Journal. In Omaha
alone 2,500 men. with the American ( lag
over them , were In line to show their sym
pathy with these crusaders , because they
thought they had been unfairly dealt with.
The fact IF. significant and pregnant both.
And now the moral : These people are out
of work , out of money and out of food , be
cause , as they believe , from the cons-qiiences
of legislation past and proposed by congress.
They have petitioned In vain , as they think ,
and In desperation have resolved to carry
their petitions In their persons to the cap
ital. They uro doing so orderly , and with
respect to perbons , property and the public
pcnc" . These facts account for tlio popular
sympathy and the food and shelter given
them. If they were marauders the same
public that feeds them would hunt them
down. If our public authorities , municipal ,
corporate , state or national , are wise and
Just , they will not turn this popular sym
pathy Into demonstrations like these at
Omaha and Council IllnlTs.

ROMANTIC MABBIAGE.

"Talk about romantic marriages , " ejacu
lated a well posted rounder to the Wash
ington Star. "Thcie goes a couple up Fif
teenth street who came together In the
most remarkable Way yon ever heard of ,
and who are enjoying a great deal of happi
ness , too. Don't mention any names und I'll
tell you the story.
"Some time ago the man , who was In the
real estate business , advertised for a sum of
money , repayment of which would be guar
anteed by unquestionable security. The ad
vertisement met the eye of a young and
buxom widow , who had several thousand
dollniH which she wanted to Invest , and she
answered it In person ,
"When she visited the advertiser's office
she was doiibtlets favorably Impressed with
his appearance and had an opportunity lo
study him perhaps , because there were sev
eral callers before her. At last he was dis
engaged , and stating her mission the widow
Inquired what secuilty would bo given for
the loan.
" 'Madame , ' said the agent , 'I am a man
of ups and downs in the world ; now success
ful and then unfortunate. Sometimes I amen
on my way to the executive mansion , and at
others my path leads In the direction of the
workhouse. Hut such as I am , I offer myself
as security for the loan I have advertised
for. Marriage , madamc , marriage , is the
security I otter you. "
"Naturally , the widow was flustrated and
shortly withdrew , stammering out , with violent
lent blushing , that she would consider the
proposition. That her consideration must
have been favorable goes without saying ,
because they were married In less than two
weeks afterward , and they are just as happy ,
to all appearances , as If their courtship had
been two years long. "
