GMEN AND CONGRESSMEN Tse Mass Mecting at the Capitol. RALLY OF THE GREENBACK PARTY. At eight o'clock last evening some 1,500 men were packed on the steps of the main east entrance to the Capitol and huddled in a semi- circle on the open space in front. The occasion was the workingmen’s rally, called under the | auspices of the representatives here of the na- tional or greenback party. The crowd crew larger every minute, and at ten o’elock there must have been 5,000 people present. They | were about equally divided between wni.es and blacks. e right abutment of the en- trance was chosen as the speaker's stand, and was crowded. A single lamplight overhead revealed the speaker to his audience. The crowd was very demonstrative. It cheered, made remarks Of its own, and launched que: tions at the speakers. Captain Brock, with policemen, Was on hand to presery ie: Jr. B. M. Lawrence called the meeting to order, and Isaac Cohen acted as secreiary. A SERIES OF RESOLUTIONS, — Droposed by Isaac Cohen, was unanimously adopted. They recited that whereas labor was depressed and millions of working people are suffering and starving, it was the duty of Coi gress to grant national relief to them; that a committee of ten be appointed to wait upon Congress and urge belure adjourament the nent of the necessary laws tor the issue 1 tender paper money sufficient to r nd stimulate the industries of the coun ty; that liberal appropriations be made ai once to begin and complete all necessary pub- lie buildings and improvements, and tae im- mediate passage of House bill 5,140, iu.roduced by Mr. Butler, or some similar bill. ‘The resolution contained a clause that the speakers be limited during the meeting to five minutes. This could not be carried out, for there were loud cries for some of the speakers to go on, while others exhibited a stubborn re: juetance to succumb at the expiration of their time. THE COMMITTEE Provided for was appointed as foliows: Dr. Sturgeon, Mr. Shupe, Col. 'T. J. Durant, Mrs. Dy. Lawrence, Mrs. "Lockwood, Col. Daniels, Mr. 0. appell, Mr. Maitby and Dr. Miller. THE FIRST SPEAKER, Dr. David Sturgeon, of Ohio, chairman of the | pational green oack party of Ouio, was intro- | duced by Dr. Lawrence. “He said that nothing | meets with so little suecess as muscle.

Two hun- tired million of acres of land been given to railroads, and $1°0.000,000 to railroads and cor- porations. When any man attempted to gain islation for the laboring cause, he was eried down. During the present session he had often made such attempts, and. the reporters in the gallery above had every time denounced him as’a fool and a demagogue. [This was greeted with eries of “You're right!” “Pay no attention to a subsidized press!”} Continuing, Mr. Wright said workingmen should send pe- titions to Congress as ing for relief. If not granted, they had their remedy—the alloc in their own hands. “If you do hot use it prop- erly, God he'p you!’ He was no communist, but believed in equal righis for capital and abor. 5 Mr, Walter A.
