THE COXEYS ARRIVE.
They Steal a Train and Then an Engine
and Come On.
The 507 men which have bored Trout-
dale nearly to death the last few days
succeeded in getting away from that point i
about 9 o'clock this morning. To this
end they made two coup d'etats.
The special freight which left Port
land last night was sidetracked when it
reached Troutdale. The men boarded
the cars, but the engineer succeeded in
cutting loose from the train and made
his way to The Dalles with the engine.
In this train was thirteen empty box
cars. ' ,
They secured an engine to pull it this
morning. Engineer Barrett and Con
ductor Fowler passed through The Dalles
last night with a special train, having on
board Officials Dickenson, Baxter and
Borie, who were on a tour of inspection,
bound for Portland. They did not leave
the cascades until early this morning,
and when at Troutdale the same tactics
were pursued as on the evening before.
The engine was separated from the cars
and attached to the box ears, captured
the evening before. Engineer Barrett
and Conductor Fowler remained with it
and pulled the army into The Dalles this
afternnoon. ( .
' The army arrived in The Dalles about
3:15. The engine was adorned with a
swarm of dirty-looking men. On the
first car following stood the tallest man
of the regiment, the color, bearer, hold
ing the stars and stripes. His name is
Johnson, 7 feet, 2 inches - high, ' and
made still taller by a high silk hat.
From out the side doors of the box cars
peered many faces, and the caboose was
likewise surmounted by a U. S. flag.
The engine backed in, but at once pro
ceeded to the turn table, and thence to
the coal house, where it was coaled up.
About fifty of the industrials guarded
the engine, which looked like some
moving object among a drove
of ants, and their faces were
set with determination. Com
mander Schemer informed a reporter
that he was going as far as possible with
the captured train and trust to circum
stances for the result. He said the pres
ent number of men was 580, divided into
twelve companies. It was bis intention
to make camp in The Dalles, but. hear
ing that Vancouver troops were in pur
suit, decided to move on as quickly as
possible and get' without the confines of
the state.
- Among the number were several well
known in The Dalles, who . joined the
army in Portland, among them Walter
Cole, a railroad man. He shook hands
with; several acquaintances, and prom
ised to open up the shoe factory when
he returned.
. The train pulled out of town without
waiting for supper, with the same engine
that pulled them in, Barrett's. Barrett
himself pulled the train out, being prob
ably instructed by the company to do so.
Everybody in The Dalles feels that
they got off luckily. Before another
issue we expect to hear of the army com
ing in conflict with IT. S. troops and the
leaders arrested.
Nothing could be gleaned at this point
as to what the company propose to do,
but we are assured they are taking every
measure possible to prevent the men
from appropriating trains to, their own
uses. They cannot be intercepted at
The Dalies, but it is probable that on
reaching Pendleton they will be met by
U. S. troops from Walla Walla and the
leaders arrested. -
Their stay at Troutdale was not
marked by any violence, but the people
of that little town were getting very
tired of them, as they had begun to grow
insolent.. Notwithstanding the exceed
ingly fair treatment they had received at
the hands of the citizens in the little
town they had begun to grow ugly, and
serious results were feared unless im
mediate action was taken by the county
authorities. Ed Sheehan, superintend
ent of the Union Meat Company's stock
yards at Troutdale, wired their prin
cipals in Portland that a demand had
been made upon him by the leaders of
the army for meat, and that he had
given, them several sneep. . Messrs.
O'Shea and Spaulding sent word to him
at once to give them what meat they
wanted, but, under no consideration, to
allow them to trespass upon the com
pany's property. The army had made
threats to occupy the company's buildings.
Marshal Grady, with 50 deputy marsh
als, visited Troutdale, Wednesday .where
by injunction proceedings he restrained
the army from using the company's
depot. No sooner had the marshals
left than the injunction was disregarded.
The depot was again taken possession
of and the army declared their intention
of holding it.
Sheriff Kelly then sent the following
to Governor Pennoyer: "lam reliably
and credibly informed that there is a
crowd of lawless people congregated at
Troutdale, .in this county and state,
which is a menace to the peace, good
.order and welfare of the community.
Property, I am informed, is in danger,
and I make a request of you, as com
mander-in-chief of the militia . of .. the
state, for a sufficient force, to keep the
peace and good order of the state." -
The governor sent the following reply
"I am in receipt of your request of this
date upon me as commander-in-chief of
the militia for a sufficient force to keep
the peace and eood order in the state.
simply because there is a crowd of law
less" people congregated at Troutdale.
Yoa do not allege any actual breach of j
the peace. This is a civil and not a I
military government, and it is your duty
to exercise the civil power to quell any
disturbance when it occurs, and not to
call upon the militia before it occurs."
Upon his failure to secure any assis
tance from the governor, Sheriff Kelly
secured about 30 men and proceeded to
Troutdale, but when the Portland force
wrrlved at Troutdale about 7 :45 Thursday
they found everything quiet. There was
not a sign of the anti-workers around
the deserted station. Further investi
gation developed the fact that the army
was packing up and preparing to move.
4:45 p. m.' It is reported that U. S.
troops are in waiting at Arlington to in
tercept the Coxeyites '
