COXEYITES AS A CIRCUS.
The Army Will Be on Exhibition At
Washington.
An Admission Fee of 25 Cents Per
Head to Be Charged to the Driving
Park in Which It Will Be Encamped.
The National Capital to Be Reached
To-morrow.
Hyattstown. Md., April 27. Gen.
Coxey started this monfing at 9 o'clock
lor Gaithersburg, thirteen miles nearer
Washington.
Contrary to geuera! expect at ions, in stead
of stopping for three days at Rockville,
the commonweal will only stay there a
single night, breaking camp at 7 o’clock
Sunday morning for the march to Wash
ington, It is expected that the Bright
wood driving park, which has been finally
chosen for the main camp, will be reached
by 1 o’clock Sunday afternoon.
It is the genera limpression that this
change of programme is simply another
step toward turning the army into a side
show. There are no re-inforcements of
any strength to be hoped for at Rockville
and it is a question of feeding the army
for two days in an unprofitable country,
or of pushing on to a good fenced in
closure, where the gate receipts for a
single day are likely to pay half the ex
penses of the trip to Washington.
COXET HAS A LITTLE SENSE LEFT.
After constant and continued associa
tion with Coxey there is among the corps
Of war correspondents but one opinion,
namely: that he is a sincere man, with a
mania, but it is freely con
ceded that his keen busi
ness sense, which, though sufficient
to earn him a comfortable fortune, was
not enough to keep him from his financial
fool’s errand, has shown him that, failing
in working a great social reform, the next
best thing is to make the army a paying
institution on a spectacular basis.
The Brightwood Driving Park Asso
ciation has certainly secured the greatest
drawing card of the season for its
grounds. It has been impossible to get
from Browne or Coxey the exact terms or.
which the grounds were secured, but it is
reported on good authority that the use of
the inclosure was given free, and
the promise of subsistence for a term of
weeks was made for the sake of increased
traffic on the suburban railway running
to the park, the park and the road being
owned by the same individuals The last
blow to the romance and heroism of the
performance is that Coxey is going to
raise the price of admission to the show
from a dime to a quarter.
Coxey still continues to maintain his
attitude of conviction as to the aim and
ultimate success of the expedition He
declares his belief in the infallibility of
the great money scheme, and professes to
believe that congress will only need a
little urging to pass both his bills. In
speaking of the stay in Washington, he
says: "We have come for a purpose, and
we are going to stay till that purpose is
accomplished.”
CALVIN’S HOBOS SIDETRACKED.
Zanesville,O., April 27 A special from
Washington C. H. says: “Col. Calvin’s
industrial army arrived at the eoal chute
late last night, tired and footsore. They
overpowered the section foreman, taking
his signals from him and locked him in
the sand house. They then held tip the
Baltimore and Ohio through east-bound
freight, and boarded it for Columbus.
The trainmen, however, sidetracked them
at Mount Sterling, which made the hobos
very angry.
CAMrKD IN THE RAIN.
Gaithersburg, Md., April 27.—For about
the twentieth time in thirty-two davs of
marching the Coxey army camped in the
rain to-day. This place was reached by
2 p. m., after a dry and dusty march, and
the army, under the direction of a citizen’s
committee, were shown a picturesque
camp ground, a quarter of a mile east
Of town. The camp ground is known as
“Alice Maria.” in honorof Browne’s dead
wife. It is but twenty-two miles from
Washington. To-morrow afternoon will
find the army at Rockville, in Camp
“Legal Tender," a compliment to Mr.
Coxey’s youngest son, who was accorded
that very distinctive name at his birth
some weeks ago.
CASKT GIVES KELLET A COLD SHOULDER.
Casey, la., April 27.—The commissary
department of Kelley’s army received at
Casey to-day the first slight it has had
since Council Bluffs was left and the
men's spirits sunk accordingly.
At Casey a good sized gift of provisions
was expected, with hot coffee and fuel.
The provisions, however, consisted of a
lonely basket of bread and a solitary
package ol coffee. There were no cheers
for Kelley nor songs from his men. The
town’s people gathered curiouslv. but
silently, to watch the army straggle
by and followed to the camp ground to
watch them take dinner. Kelley was in
censed at the failure to provide food, and
went through the town without his cus
tomary smile. During the afternoon
Kelley sent the following appeal to Mayor
Bemis, of Omaha:
To Mayor Bemis and the Citizens of Omaha:
One more appeal from the industrial army.
We are entirely surrounded by Pinkerton
and railroad detectives, who are sparing no
means to hreak our movement Send us sup
piles by rail soon as possible—bread and
meat and coffee. We urne you once more to
stand by us. We hope to make Ties Moines
some time Sunday. Route impeded in every
conceivable manner. Transportation by wa
gon must in great part he paid tor
The manifesto of Kelley gave expres
sion to the sentimest of the men and
threats against the Pinkertons who are
becoming hourly more numerous. There
was no indication of an attempt by the
men of the Sacarmento division to cap
ture a train during the day. The men are
apparently determined to scatter and
trust to bumpers and brake beams.
HURT BY FALLING TREES.
A White Man and a Negro Victims of
Similar Mishaps.
Douglas, Ga., April 27.—Yesterday af
ternoon E. M. Harrell, one of the over
seers on the S.. B. A. and N. W. railroad,

EVANS AT CTJTHBERT.
The General Delivers a Memorial Day
Address.
Cuthbert. Ga- April 27.—Memorial ex
ercises were held in Cuthbert to-day.
Gen. Evans was selected to deliver the
address, but owing to his presence at Bir
mingham on the 2tith the exercises were
postponed till to-day. The train bearing
the speaker arrived in Cuthbert this
morning at 11 o’clock, and a large number
of veterans and admirers of the general
were at the depot to welcome him. Ex
tensive preparations had been made for
the occasion, and when the speaker
entered the court house at 2 o'clock he
found an immense crowd, who had
gathered from all parts of the county.
In front of the speakers' stand stood
four lovely little girls, holding two torn,
faded and battle scarred confederate
flags, which they waved back and forth
as the general advanced amid the strains
of inspiring music. Then little Pauline
Shelley, a lovely maiden scarcely 9 years
old. in a round, clear voice, reaching to
every part of the great audience, intro
duced the speaker in the following words:
Noble Veterans I.adiesatid Gentlemen—lt
Is with pride and pleasure that 1 have the
honorof introducing to you the distinguished
soldier and patriot. Hon. Clement A i.vans.
as the orator of the occasion. We all know
him. yea. we school girls and boys know him,
and when he has finished his earthly cares,
his name wiil still live. You veterans knew
him in war we know him In peace, and pos
terity shall know him in history.
THE GENERAL’S ADDRESS.
Gen. Evans arose amid applause, and
after feelingly and happily referring to
his very unique introduction, and pleas
antly expressingly his appreciation for the
happy welcome given him at the train by
a bright galaxy of confederate daughters,
he proceeded to deliver one of the best
memorial addresses ever heard in Cuth
bert. He reviewed the history of the war,
pictured the hardships connected with
tnat straggle, defended the south from
unjust accusations, showed the part the
south had played in the formation and ex
tension of the union, praised the leaders
of the confederacy and ended with a
eulogy upon the private soldier and
southern women.
Immediately after the speaking the
audience marched to place flowers upon
the graves of the dead heroes. The pro
cession consisted of a band, the Bethel
college cadets, confederate veterans, An
drew Female -college young ladies, city
council and citizens.
To-night a reception is being tendered
Gen. Evans at the Randolph hotel.
Gen. Evans is at home in Cuthbert and
the devotion of the older citizens and vet

thusiasm of the younger generation, is re
markable.
HARDEMAN MADE JUDGE.
Gov. Northen Names the Successor of
Judge Bartlett.
Atlanta. Ga., April 27. Gov. Northen
this morning appointed Hon. ,1. L. Harde
man, of Macon, to succeed Hon. Charles
L. Bartlett as Judge of the Macon cir
cuit.
Yesterday at a meeting of the bar in
Macon Judge Bartlett tendered his resig
nation. It was forwarded at once to Gov.
Northen, who received and accepted it
this morning. Without waiting for any
candidates to announce for the position
the governor picked out the best man for
the position, in his judgment, and ap
pointed him. The appointment was
made at an early hour by the governor,
and soon afterward a number of gentle
men called in thq interest of Henry
Matthews, of Fort Valley.
The Macon circuit embraces the coun
ties of Bibb, Crawford and Houston.
The new judge is comparatively a young
man, a resident of Macon and a member
of one of the oldest and most influential
families in the state. He is the son of
the late Hon. Thomas Hardoman and is
well known all over the state. He was
solicitor general of the Macon circuit be
fore the term of the present solicitor,
Hon. W. H. Felton, and has also been a
representative of his county in the legis
lature.
GOULD GIVES UP GOLD.
He Settles in All the Libel Suits
Brought Against Him.
Atlanta, Ga , April 27.—The attorneys
in the Hall-Gould libel case, which re
sulted in a verdict of $1,500 and costs for
the plaintiff, Mrs. Selina Cole Hall, a
a well-known artist, last week, have ar
rived at an agreement to settle the whole
affair and purge the courts of it. Already
the case has cost Gould, the eccentric
millionaire, about $7,500, and several
other suits are pending. Accord
ing to the settlement agreed
upon Mrs. Hall gets her $1,500.
Col. Wimpy, one of Iter lawyers, who is
also suing Gould in his own name, gets
#I,OOO on condition that all pending suits
be abandoned, and warrants recently
sworn out against witnesses who ap
peared for Gould for alleged perjury' be
withdrawn. These warrants were with
drawn this afternoon. The case has al
ready exhibited a great deal of soiled
linen to the public, and the settlement
outside of the court house will be a relief.
HORSE POND’S CORPSE.
The Body Not Identified—Foul Play
Strongly Suspeoted.
Ocala. April 27.—The coroner’s jury, in
charge of Squire Joe Richardson, of
Flemington, repaird to Horse pond this
morning to view the remains of a man
found there yesterday. Fully a hundred
persons preceded the jury. No clew to
the color of the dead man was discovered.
He had #2.85 and a watch on his person.
One of the pockets in his trousers had
been cut open. Blood was found on a
celluloid curt. At this writing (7. p. m.)
no verdict has been rendered. The find
ing of the body recalls the fact that nearly
a year a:o the pantry mail of the Ocala
house started out to see friends one day
aud never returned and Henry Greiner
recalls the fact that another negro dis
appeared about the same time, who has
never been heard from. The impression
is general that the man found in Horse
pond came to his death by violence and
that his body was thrown into the
water.

worker for expositions, and his election
will give pleasure all over the state and
increased confidence in the big undertak
ing.
THE MORNING .NEWS: SATURDAY, APRIL 28. 1894.
STRIKES HOLD BACK A BOOM
The Business Situation Less Favora
ble Than Last Week.
Many Furnaces Banking Their Fires,
Factories Closing Their Doors and
Lake Vessels Lying Up Owing to the
Prospective Coal Famine—A Total
of 200.000 Industrial Employes Now
on Strike.
New York, April 27.—Bradstreet’s to
morrow will say: “The general business
situation throughout the United States is
less favorable, as shown by' reports from
more than fifty important distributing
centers. A specially depressing influence
is the strike of 147.000 bituminous coal
and coke operatives in twelve states. Ac
cumulated stocks of bituminous were
about an average for the season, but are
not likely to last beyond the midale
of May. Already the record of furnaces
banking their fires, factories closing
their doors, lake vessels laying up and
mills throughout the central P.nd central
western states shutting down in conse
quence of a prospective lack of fuel is at
tracting attention. This, apparently, the
largest single industrial strike taking
place in this country, is reported caused
by the efforts of the operators to recoup
themselves from the results of "Insane
competition” by repeated cutting of the
miners’ wages. Complicating the situa
tion is the effort of about 30,000 miners to
supply the demand for coal who will not
strike.
200,000 MSN IDLE.
“The total number of industrial and
other employes on strike now, with those
made idle by reason of the strikes, is
200,000. of which nearly' 75 per cent, are
coal miners and coke operatives, 10,400
textile workers, 7,000 in pottery and
kindred industries. 8,000 among building
trades and 0,000 railroad employ es.
“Only two cities of thirty-five report
ing in the central, western and north
western states report material improve
ment in general trade this week Indian
apolis and Kansas City—and even at
those points the gain is slight.
“In the south the business situation is
marked bv quiet, even dullness, an ex
ception being noted in a better tone to
trade in several lines at New Orleans.
Drouth in the vegetable region near
Jacksonville has checked shipments and
affected the local money market.
“Atlanta furniture factories have shut
dow'n for six weeks, and other industrial
establishments are working on short
time.”
Drs’s REVIEW.
R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly review of
trade to-morrow, will say: “When ac
counts of srreat strikes and labor dis
turbances crowd all newspapers, it is
idle to look for much improvement in
business. The bituminous miners quit
work last Saturday in larger number than
was expected, and the coke-workers at
once renewed, with greater unanimity,
the struggle recently unsuccessful. While
these great bodies of men, besides the
thousands who were on strkes in the
building trades, in silk, woolen and
cotton mills, in Alabama ironwork
and on western railroads, are refusing
to work, there are other thousands
marching to Washington, who claim that
that they seek work in vain, and that the
government must give relief. Both
classes arc engaged in making business
worse, because it was bad already.
“That every week of idleness for so
many men must appreciably lessen the
aggregate power to purchase products of
labor is evident, but in spite of all, some
improvement still appears.
IRON AND STEEL.
"The iron and steel works in regions
where bituminous coal or coke is used as
fuel, may be seriously interrupted in the
struggle is much prolonged, but the im
mediate effect is to give a better look to
prices of some products in those regions,
while eastern works feel a somewhat
larger demand. Southern freights to
New York, being 50 cents lower, pig iron
from Alabama is offered at $11.60,
and rails of light sections are
sold, it is stated, below #2O at
the milt, while at Chicago business
halts, and bar iron is down to one cent,
though plates and beams are slightly
stronger. Barbed wire at Pittsburg is
quoted at $2.10 and wire rods at $23.50,
though billets and Bessemer iron are
stronger. Philadelphia notes an increased
demand, and in that region about two
thirds of the working force is employed.
CLEARING HOUSE PATMENTS.
"Payments through all clearing houses
were 20.4 per eeut. smaller than a year
ago, and outside New York 18.8 per cent,
smaller, but prices of commodities, now
averaging nearly 14 per cent, lower than
a year ago. account for oVer half of the
change. The volume of foreign trade does
not materially alter, exports hence for
the month being 10 per cent, larger than
last year, while imports at New York
have been 41.7 smaller, ~’rhe decline in
custom receipts indicates that the in
cre'ase irt dutiable imports is 45 per cent.
“No enlargement of commercial loans
appears and money continues to accumu
late here, though in smaller amount this
week. This state of facts clearly indi
cates the general depression of trade and
industries, but domestic exchanges have
so far changed that abatement for the
flow of money hither is expected. Only
$1,200,000 gold goes out this week, at pres
ent accounts, aud there are no indications
of important foreign operations during
the week in American securities. Consid
erable exchange is being drawn on ac
count of Americans about to visit Europe,
as usual, at this season.
THE FAILURES.
“The decrease in liabilities of firms fail
ing still continues, and the aggregate re
ported for the third week in April was
only $2,792,462, and for the three weeks
of April $6,988,588, of which #2.810.194
were of manufacturing and $3,841,095 of
trading concerns. The failures have been
very equally divided as to sections, the
east having the larger number, with lia
bilities of $2,277,000, the south #2,572.000,
and the west $2,138,000. The failures
this week have been 180 in the United
States, against 216 last year, for the first
time in many months showing a decrease,
and in Canada 26, against 22 last year.
This list includes none of great import
ance.”
BACK FROM THE HEARSARGE.
A Yacht at Charleston With the Brass
Plate and Other Souvenirs.
Charleston, S. C., April 27.—The steam
yacht Intrepid, Capt. Phomix, from Nas
sau, came into the harbor yesterday
afternoon, having left that port on April
24 bound for New York. The Intrepid
experienced very heavy weather and
several squalls. She has been
cruising along the West Indies
and Windward islands. Capt. Lloyd
Phoenix is accompanied bv Col
Schuyler Crosby, ex-governor o'f Mon
tana. The Intrepid is a steel yacht 164
feet long, and with a width of twenty
seven feet. The deck is of northern pine
with teak finishings, aud she is rigged as
a three masted schooner. Capt. Phoenix
was recently in the neighborhood of Hon
rador reef, w here the old warship Kear
sarge went down, and has a number of
souvenirs of the vessel, among them be
ing the brass plate commemorative of the
encounter with the Alabama.
MONEY FOR AGRICULTURE.
The House Committee Completes the
Appropriation Bill.
Washington, April 27.—The House com
mittee on agriculture to-dav completed
the agricultural appropriation bill for the
coming fiscal year. The bill will carry an
appropriation of about $2,450,000, being
about $148,000 less than the appiopriation
for the current fiscal year and about
#215.000 above the estimates submitted.
The increase over the estimates was
made principally in the appropriation for
the purchase and distribution of seeds,
and the expenses of the bureau of animal
industry.
The secretary, in his estimates, asked
for #35,000 for the seed division, and #700.-
000 for the bureau of animal industry.
The committee increased the appropria
tion for seed to *230.000. and that of the
bureau of animal industry to SBOO,OOO. The
additional #IOO,OOO in the latter appropria
tion was made to prevent the spread of
tuberculosis among cattle.
THE PURCHASE Or SEED.
The present law regarding the pur
chase and distribution of seed was so
ohanged as to confine their purchase and
distribution to "such seed as are rare and
uncommon to the country, or such as can
be made more profitable by frequent
changes from one part of the country to
another.” Anew provision was also in
serted in this section authorizing
the Secretary of Agriculture to expend
$30,000 of this appropriation for the pub
lication of the Farmers’ Bulletin, rela
ting to agricultural matters generally.
It was also stipulated that “all seeds,
plants and cuttings allotted to senators
and representatives in congress for dis
tribution remaining uncalled for on the
first of May, shall be distributed by the
Secretary of Agriculture.”
FAILED FOR *1,600,000.
Henry Newman & Go., of New York,
Make an Assignment.
New York, April 27.—Henry Newman
& Cos., wholesale dealers in tailors’ trim
mings at Nos. 628 and 630 Broadway, as
signed to-day. The firm obtained an ex
tension last September of eight, twelve
and fifteen months, showing liabilities of
#1.600,000 and assets of #2,400,000. The
first payment on the extension notes falls
due on May 15.
Mr. Newman three weeks ago stated
that he had antiepated 50 per cent, of
the first payment. Business had not
been so good as he expected, as collec
tions have been very unsatisfactory.
Therefore he has been unable to meet the
balance of his first extension. The busi
ness was established twenty-five years
ago by Henry I. Newman.
According to the assignee’s statement,
the liabilities of the firm are about
#1,500,000. The assets are #2,000,000. con
sisting of $900,000 worth of stock at cost
price, $500,000 in good outstanding ac
counts, $120,000 in cash and enough real
estate to make the total assets about
$2,000,000.
Henry Newman & Cos., were among the
largest wholesale and retail dealers in
clothiers’ supplies in this country. In
addition to their house at 628 and 630
Broadway, they, in January, 1893, opened
a large branch at 276 and 278 Franklin
