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

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

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

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

forced to pay 82 cents tolls. Coxey left

numbers about 500. ,
The men are divided Into thirteen
companies. S. L. Sheffler, a stonemason,
hao been elected colonel and J. M. Shlnn
major. 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

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.

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.
