8 SHIVERED- BETWEEN BITES Under Distressing Conditions the Grand Army Btarts for Washington. COXEY'S COMMONWEALERS'COLD COMFORT Plenty of Good Food Was Provided and the Men Only Grumble HBecanse They Were Not Entertained at the Hotels with Their Leaders. 26.—Contrary to ex- wives and CANTON, 0., March pectations the twenty-five women, Qaughter's of people's party men of this city, did not turn up at the camp grounds of the army on account of the consequently the men were for themselves as far a was concerned. At 6 o'clock was turned into Small groups of in every limb, the freezing west, Tw Commonw weather, and obliged to hustle their breakfast in the morning the camp a veritable Valley Forg men could be seen shivering trying to obtain shelter from blasts which from the thirds of the men who started with my had taken lodging in the city prison, but at an early hour they began to gather at the grounds got thelr rations. Some difficulty was experlenced getting men who could use the cooking utensils to ad- vantage, but finally at the east side of the tent gasoline stoves were sct up and the morning meal commenced. The donation, which consisted of one dozen boiled hams, 200 loaves of bread, five bushels of potatoes, baked beans and an abundance of other eatables, were soon utilized, and soon every- body was thoroughly satisfied as far as his stomach was concerned. Fortunately the abundance of supplics prevented the tramps from getting intc altercations, Many of the men were heard to grumble about Mr. Coxey taking lodgings at the bost hotel and were of the opinion that he should take a dose of his own medicine. A number were interviewed at the city jail last nigit In regard to what they would do in case provisions were not furnished along the road, nd each and every one said he would make w raid on the farmers, The most noticeable thing was the absence of anybody to command the much shattered forces. Carl Brown did not arrive upon the scene until 10:30 o’clock, when he also took a room in a prominent hotel. Once upon the ground his orders to the men were after the style of a circus tent man, but the men were slow in obeying orders. Horses and men, who had bunked together during the night, were huddled In small groups, endeavoring to keep warm while waiting for ;In- temporary cooks to prepare their break- ast. At 10:30 preparations were made to get dinner and camp was struck so that the army was on the road at 12. Stark Siding, one mile east of this city, a favorable .place for a rendezvous for tramps, added a new squad, numbering about fifty, to the army. Mr. Coxey, to in who it is claimed Is financially embarrassed, and has been given until March 28 to settle an indebtedness of $24,000, seems to be much worried over the affair, and to verify the rumor, a number of populists of the city have issued a circular to the cltizens of, the United States asking them to contribute to lelp him pay his debt. The appeal urges immediate relief for Mr. Coxey that he may lift the mortgage, which was incurred through his purchuse of the famous horse Acolyte, for which he agreed to pay $40,000. Contributions made this morning amounted to $4.50 and the prospects are not very flattering in this locality for Coxey's relicf. The Commonweal was on the march ahortly after noon, fully 200 strong, and cx- pect to arrive at Louisville, 0., thelr next stop, at 4 o'clock. PITTSBURG, March 26.—An attachment was Issued today by B. M. Everson of this city against General J. 8. Coxey, commander of the Commonweal. The claim is for $600 for mill supplies. Sheriff Richards will send doputies to the border of the county to meet General Coxey and escort him to the sherift's office, where he will be required to give bail in the sum of $1,500 or remain here The company organized in the Eighteenth ward of this city to meet Coxey hus been disbanded. SALEM, 0., March 26.—An officer, who was covering the route for the Pennsylvania authorities, claims that Coxey will likely cross the Pennsylvania line with at least 8,600 men. He'learns that at least half of the Ohio recruits will go into the army carrying firearms. HAZELTON, Pa.,, March 26.—John Ham- mond, the colored recruit, who was arrested for vagrancy, was sent to the hospital. His feet, which have been frozen, are decayed for want of medical attention and the whole of one foot and the toes of the other will bave to be amputates DENVER, March 25 —Pert 1Tamilton, wha Is organizing an army to go to Washington, has appointed 100 officers, each of whom will be held during the week to work upon the project. Mr. Hamilton says he will not start from Denver with less than 1,000 men and fs confident of leaving Colorado with 5,000. SAN ANTONIO, Tex.,, March 26.—The Southern Paclfic officlals have received word that the United States Industrial army of 700 men was put off the trains at a siding near Finlay station on the El Paso division and that frains were run through without stopping. The “army” broke the lock on A switch causing the next eastbound train to take the siding. The men jumped on the cars and were taken to Finlay, where they were tied up pending orders. The train will stay there, as the company has decided not to carry the men. The men Will soon starve out. hoy Will Hay DENVER, March 26, ton's Denver contingent Will hay to Walk ~“General” Hamil- of Coxey's army to walk out of town unless they pay their fares. It was announced at last night's meeting that the Santa Fe would be calied upon to furnish a train for the pilerims. At the Santa Fo office It was aid today that tho company had refused to furnish a train to the California division of the army and would undoubtedly repeat its refusal should* the Denver contingent make its promised demands. The other roads will also decline to give free trans- portation. Dallas’ Contribution DALLAS, Tex., March 26.—A local group of twenty men has been organized here to join Coxey's army. They are to start from Dallas for Washington, via Shreveport and Vicksburg, next Monday or Tuesday and join neral Frye's regiment, now enroute to San Antonio from Bl Paso, at some point east of Vicksburg about April 15, The men are under command of Captain Allen Forter, late of Mississippl.

PASSING OF A PIONEER. of General Experience Estabrook After a Hrief Iliness. General Experience Estabrook, one of the most widely known of Omaha’s ploneers, passed peacefully away at his residence, 411 South Seventeenth street, at 3:45 yester- day morning. He had reached the age of 81 years and in a few days would have cele- brated the golden anniversary of his wedding, His figure was a famillar one on the streets until last Thursday, when he took to his bed with what the physiclans give no name, but 1s understood to be a wearing out of the vital forces, He was perfectly rational until Sunday morning and his death was as peaceful as the sinking into sleep of a ehild General Estabrook traced his descent from the passengers of the Mayflower. belng <ight_generations removed from John Alden and_Priscilla Mullen. The town of Alden, N. Y., where his son was born, was named after his grandfather. He was born in Leb- wn, N. H., In 1813, and arrived to Omaha 2 United States attorney, ranklin Pierce, which office four years and nine months. His carlier years were passed In eventful times. From the New Hampshire farm, where he was born, he went first to work in his father’s sawmill and then cbtained a position as clerk in the nayy yards in Brook- lyn. Subsequently he enlisted in the navy, but resigned to take up the practice of law, a profession which he followed actively until a few years ago. In 1851 he was in Wiscon- sin, where he was elected attorney general, holding the office for two years. Previous to that time he had been a member of the Wisconsin constitutional convention, In Nebraska he was identified with most of the stirring events of early days. In the spring of 1855, after his arrival in the state, he was the only member of the bar, and on his motion all the veteran attorneys of state and city were admitted, among them being Messrs. Redick, Poppleton and Wake- ley. He was a member of the constitutional convention In 1571 and employed by the committee of managers to aid in the im- peachment of Governor David Butler, who was found guilty and turned out of office in June, 1871~ From 1867 to 1869 he served local district attorney. In 1859 he W elected to congress, but after one year's service a contest resulted in the loss of his seat, the successful contestant being Samuel G. Daily. In 1866 he was appointed by the governor to codify the laws of Nebraska and by the public printer he was appointed to superintend the publication and prepare the index. While employed at this Mr. Estabrook was with Culver, Page & Hoyne of Chicago, and while there embraced the opportunity to publish a farm book. He was married at Geneva Lake, Wis., on April 14, 1841, to Miss Caroline A. Maxwell, daughter of " Colonel James Maxwell, a ploneer of Wisconsin and a member of the legislature of that state. The two children left are both well known not only in Omaha, but over the state. Henry D., the son, Is a practicing attorney and one of the best known of the young orators of the state. The daughter, Caro- lino Augusta, is the wife of Hon. R. C. Clowry of the Western Union. Mrs. Clowry and Mrs. H. D. Estabrook were in California when Mr. Estabrook was taken seriously ill. They were summoned home and arrived here Sunday morning. Had the deceased lived until April 17 it ended to have made the celebration of his golden wedding an event of some im- portance, preparations being already under way. Death appointed by he held for Senator Colquitt is Dea WASHINGTON, March 26.—United States Senator Alfred Holt Colquitt of Georgin died at his residence in this city at 7:10 o'clock this morning. Around the bedside when he passed away were Senator Gordon and his daughter, Mrs. Jones, Senator Colquitt's private secretary, his nephew Mr, Bunn, his son, Mrs. Col- quitt, three unmarried daughters and his daughter, Mrs, Marshall of Chicago. As the end approached the senator’s breathing became very heavy, but he re- lapsed into unconsciousness and suffered no pain, The funeral will take place in the senate chamber at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning and will probably be conducted by Rev. W. H. Milburn, chaplain of the senate. He s at present absent from the city, but has been wired to come, and will, doubtless, in time to officlate. The temains will be taken to Macon, Ga., for interment. After the funeral services in the senate chamber that body will probably take a recess until 12 o'clock, Mrs. Henrletta Swaysland. Mrs. Henrietta Swaysland, wife of Edward Swaysland, well known among the older in- habitants of Omaha, died on Easter Sunday at 7 o'clock p. m. after an illness of several months. Her sickness was due to her unceasing labor and sacrifice during the past five years in caring for her invalid husband. She fed and ministered to him, lifted him in his bed and unaided did cvery- thing necessary to his comfort. She literally wore herself out in this tender and loving care. Five months ago she failed, and since that day has never left her bed. Funeral services will be held at the house, 1819 Davenport street, at 2 o'clock this after- noon, Father Willlams officiating, and the burial will take place In Forest Lawn cemetery. Joel Pound.

Changes in the Rontp Discussed Before the "ark PBoaed Yesterda Bids for the six Iitle cottages In Riverside park were not opened’at the meeting of the park board yesterdmy afternoon, as Secretary Doane had been Informed by City Attorney Connell that the occupants, through over- sight, had not been made parties to the con- demnation proceedings and notified to vacate This fact would make the sale of the bufld- ings illegal, as the board has not yet secured legal possession. As soon as the board gets posscssion the buildings will be readvertised for sale. A number of the people who have been living In these houses were present at the meeting. Two petitions were presented in regard to the route of the southeast boulevard. One referred to the meeting held by interested parties on Saturday night at Tenth and Ban- croft street and asked that the route of the boulevard be changed in a manner that has been outlined in The Bee. Mr. J. Gordon spoke in behalf of the proposed charge from the orfginal route, He admitted that the change would be a henefit to the property owners who had signed the petition, but, in addition to this, his route was fully as pic- turesque and would cost the taxpayers con- siderably less he line Mr. Gordon sup. ported commences between Eighth and Ninth strects on Bancroft, and almost parallels the original route. His chief points were at this route would give a 200-foot boule- vard instead of a 100, would save the tax- payers $10,000 and would give employment to a large number of laborers while the same was being constructed. He contended that no litigation would follow if his route was agreed upon, while, if the other route is established, it would be different. His pe- titon for a change was signed by Charles Kaufman, Herman Kountze and others. Mr. Charles Elgutter spoke in behalf of the original route. He said that the southsiders wanted the very best and mose picturesque route that could he established. He be- lieved that the board had already selected such a route, and that the majority of the people living in that locality and owning property there were of the same opinion. It was not a question with him ‘as to which route would benefit his property most, he wanted the very best and most sightly route for the boulevard. Mr. Patrick and one or two others spoke for and against the proposed change Dr. Miller announced that on morning next the members of the board would meet at the corner of Tenth and Ban- croft streets and go over both routes. If any new suggestions had arisen since the time the board made its original selection, he was certain that the members of the commis- sion would willingly entertain them and see that justice was meted out to all parties who are interested, The proposed change in_ the route of the southwest boulevard was then taken up. In a communication, Mr. Creighton offered to donate 100 feet on one side of the roadway from Thirty-second avenue south of Martha to Arbor if Mr. Lyman would donate 100 feet on the opposite side. Mr. Lyman said he would, in so far.as the property extended, and it Is quite likely that this arrangement will be consummated in the end. o S e OMAHA DETECTIVE FORCE.

Germans en- tertain a high regard for Amerlea, but will let well enough alone. The prosperity of Germany has been greatly Increased by a broader policy on forefgn affairs and the ex- tension of commercial treaties. Times in Germany have been materfally improved since the widening of commercial relations with other countries and a humane consi eration for the condition of the working asses, “It Is not generally known that an insur- ance against destitution exists in Germany, The workingman pays one-third of a pre- mium to insure himself and his fami against sickness, accident, incapacity of ol age, ete, employer also pays one-third and the government pays the other—so the workman {s thus practically pensioned against abject poverty.

What the latter will do I can- not definitely state, but the members of the committee are loyal to the government pol- icy and the majority of the committee are, to my knowledge, strong advocates of silver interests. 1 have no doubt that this com- mittee will report favorably for free coinage of silver or an increase in coinage of the white metal. It is evident that the country needs more silver.
