Omaha, April 20. Three thousand la boring men marched" out of Omaha to day, with banners flying, bound for Capt. Kelly's commonweal camp at Weston, la,, 14 miles east of Council Bluffs. Kelly la in Omaha conferring with President St. John, of the Rock Island railroad. St. John said he was not in a position to grant transporta tion, as the matter was wholly In the hands of the president of the trunk lines. A prominent man. has suggested that the army levy on farmers for horses and wagons; that it be split into squadrons of about 100 each and spread out over a territory about 25 miles wide and then march on foot across the state, as such a plan would soon bring the people to time, for the army would practically devastate the . country through which it passed and 'the rail roads would be forced to carry the com monwealers out of the countiy. It Is said that there are anarchists In the column marching out of Omaha who had idynamite with them, ,but how much Is not known. The weather is very cold and the men are suffering severely, many having pneumonia, although they . have an ample supply of medicine. General Manager St. John, upon see lng the wet and shivering men, express ed a willingness to carry them, and has asked for permission to do so. The army may be transported down the river to Kansas City. Five thousand sympa thisers here are ready to join this morning's advance guard. - The column marching to Kelly's army his swelled to 6,000 men. Gov. Jackson has notified Kelly that the citizens of Council Bluffs have ar ranged to furnish boats to take the army to Kansas City, and will provide them with shelter, during the prepara tions.

The march of the commonwealers over from Wllliamsport was made under favor aoie circumstance At tne tollgate a mile outside of Hagerstown there was delay, the old, white-haired gatekeeper refusing to let the army pass without paying toll on the horses. Brown de clared this was another extortion of the monopolists, and ordered forward the flag. The old gateman . respectfully doffed his hat to the stars and stripes, but shut down the bars on the horse men ana carnages. Tne army was forced to pay 82 cents tolls. Coxey left today for New York, where he will at tend the sale of some of his Kentucky thoroughbreds.

This afternoon about 1,000 per sons assembled on the Plaza block. It was announced that the leaders and Gov. Pennoyer were In conference with Northern Pacific officials, trying to ar range for the transportation of Kie army to Puget Sound. It Is under stood that the Northern Pacific will not carry the men without! compensation. There Is some talk of endeavoring to raise a. sufficient sunt of money by subscription. LATER. Portland, April 20. The Industrial army organized here, 600 strong, will probably disband, as public sentiment Is against furnishing them any more ra tions and the Northern Pacific has re fused them transportation, although Im portuned to do so by Gov, Pennoyer. The city council this afternoon decided to make no more appropriations for pro visions, and the city board of charities will probably take the army in hand. President Strong, of the board, says h I will give the men two meals a day and I lodging lor six Inrars work per day on tlmated that from 4,000 to 7,000 as yet have Hied no application to register.

Fred erlcks was this afternoon found guilty of the murder of Cashier Herrick, nftei The ship Kennebec, laden with coal, arrived In San Francisco on Monday from Seatt'e, after making the round trip In the unusual time of 28 days. Capt. Arey, of the barkentlne J. M Griffith, has beaten the record from Point Arena to San Francisco, making the trip in a little less than six hours. The average speed of the vessel sailing before the rattling northwester was 16 2-3 Knots an hour. This side of Point Reyes the captain says he made as much as 18 knots an hour, which is more than steamboat time. . Major T. J. Blakency, in charge of the United States life-saving service on the Pacific Coast, has received orders from the department at Washington to visit Port Oxford and' Yaqulna Bay on the coast of Oregon, for the purpose of locating sites for life-saving stations at or near the places named. The estab lishing of the new stations have been decided upon some time, but the stormy weather prevented the making of loca tions, and Major BUtkeney expects to go for that purpose during the coming week. The formation of a bar off the mouth of the South Pass entrance to the Miss issippi river, which has len recently reported, Is exactly what wus foretold by certain engineers when Capt. Ends built his Jetties. It Is said that there are now only a few feet of water where there were 600 some years ago. The great mass of slit brought down by the swift current of the Father of Waters must deposit Itself somewhere. The building of the Jeeties, by confining' the current In a narrow commuts. scoured ut a channel over the old bar, but ap liarently the silt has deposited Itself as Joon as It was free from the Influences it the restricted volume of the river. Capt. Eads believed that the current of the gulf would dissipate the earth and other matter brought down by th river before It could form a new bar. If the report recently received by the Jiydrographlc office are correct, this has not been done. A new survey of the waters In tha vicinity of the mouths of the Mlsnlsalj.pl will be made nt once.
