RUNNING FIGHT STILL IN PROGRESS Outlaws Overhauled Forty Miles from Perry, Oklahoma, FAMOUS DALTON GANG OBLITERATED Rewards on Bill Dalton Dead or Alive it to ®2,500 and on His Com- Amo! panions They Aggregate Thousands More. KANSAS CITY, April 19.—A special to the Star from Perry, OKL, says: News was re- celved here this morning by messenger that a terrible fight occurred about forty m t of here near Bwen mountain yesterday even- ing and last evening. The noted outlaws, Bill Dalton and Bill Doolan, and another out- law said to be Bitter Creek, were killed on the spot and a woman and her little gir! were killed, as also were two deputy mar- shals. Marshal Nix of Oklahoma has been plan- ning for some days to catch the Dalton gang and Marshal Burrell Cox, with Heck Thomas and Bill Tighemann of Perry, with a crowd of fourteen deputy marshals, left some days ago for the castern part of the Cherokee strip in pursult of the Daltons. The marshals met Bruce Miller, one of the gang, and the fight commenced. This was on McElroy's ranch, fiftesn miles this side of Ingalls, Bill Dalton and Bill Doolan were near by when the fight occurred and went to Bruce Miller's assistance, and a regular fight took place. The messengers left the place of conflict last night_at 8 o'clock and they report the above. They say that eight persons in all had been killed, and the latest news from the field of conflict is that a running fight is still in progress and that it looks very much like the noted outlaw gang will be swept out of existence. The price of Bill Dalton's capture, dead or alive, Is $2,500, and the price of Bill Doolan’s head s $1,501 After diligent inquiry the Associated pre 15 unable to verify the story of a bloody con- flict between United States deputy wmarshals and the xo-called Dalton gang of outlaws. Immediately upon receipt of the rumor that @ battle had occurred, the Associated press correspondent at Perry, OkL, was tele- graphed for a verification or denial of the affair, and the following reply was recsived: “Hasing his opinion upon reports as they have come in, the sheriff of this county says there is not a word of truth in the report of & fight with the Daltons.'” The following dispatch was received from Arkansas City, Kan.: he report was taken Into Perry by a cowboy whose reliabil- ity is not known. Trainmen and passengers who have just arrived here (7:30 p. m.) from the south discredit the report.’ A special to the Journal, received at § p. m., from Guthrie, Okl, says: A report Tenches here tonight of another conflict be- tween the Unitod States marshals and mem- bers of the Dalton gang, which is said to have occurred northwest of Stillwater in the Pawnee reservation. The battle lasted cver an hour, and two marshals and one outlaw are reported killed and several others in- jured. United States Marshal Nix has re ceived no officlal news and details cannot be obtained.” e CORRIGAN TO BE ARRAIGNED, Rumor that the Arch Bishop Will Be Summoned to Rome. NEW YORK, April 19.—The Herald says the trouble which began In this diocese of the Roman Catholic church several years ago and which originated with Dr. Mc- Glynn's disobedience is not yet ended. It 18 to be revived in a new and more startling form. In fact the Herald has been in- formed that Bishop Corrigan is to be ar- raigned in Rome on most serious charges. “The substance of the charge is conspiracy to destroy the influence of Mgr. Satolli, the apostolic delegate. Mgr. Satolli has for some time past been working quietly bu steadily to obtain evidence against the head of the diocese. The case against the arch- bishop is now complete and the papers are ready for transmission to Rome. The be- lief 1s that Archbishop Satolll will himselt carry the documents to the pope. It is also said on the same authority that Archbishop Corrigan had been “invited” to visit Rome. The meaning of this “invitation” is obvious. One of the charges to be made against the archbishop is that he employed the editor of ® Catholic newspaper published in this city to carry on the literary part of the warfarc. This editor has been called the ‘“‘press pgent” of the bishop. He Is a devoted Catholic and is said to have been convinced that he owed a higher duty to Rome than to the archbishop. He is said to have fur- nished all the facts in his possession to the apostolic delegate. The documents have been in Washington for some days and they are being formulated In the regular way so nothing can interfere with their proper presentation to the pope. WASHINGTON, April 19.—The story pub- lished today that Mgr. Satolll would ‘prefer sharges against Archbishop Rome of conspiring against him was denied by the papal ablegate today. - WITI:[;);TENT TO KILL. ok Watchman Use of w Revolver ¢ nto Tro Offjcer Sebek at 1 o'clock this morning ar rested J. Janachek, a special policeman on Bouth Thirteenth street, for shooting With Intent to kill. Last night Janachek and several others, all Bohemians, went to Havlicek's hall on Thirteenth and Williams streets to have some fun. They visited several saloons dur- lng the evening and became intoxivated Frequent disputes arose and several times a fight was narrowly averted, Janachek was always mixed up in the disputes. They went from the hall and started to go home, but concluded to go and have another drink. When they went to get this drink they met Charles Warner and Jana- chek, who has had a grudge agalnst him for some time, wanted to have it out, but the trouble was smoothed over temporarily and they all returned to the hall. Warner says he had some words with Janachek in the hall, and when he left he was followed by Uanachek. He turned and asked Janachek what he wanted, and was answered by belng shot twice, once through the hat, the bullet making a wound on his head, and mgain in the left wrist. The wounds in Dboth instances were only flesh deep. Janachek sald he started to go home mnd was pounced upon by Warner and felled 0 the ground by a blow with a heavy um rella, and he shot to save himself. e L German Bourse Taxation Bill. # BERLIN, April 19.—In the Reichstag Roday the Bourse taxation bill was read for the third tim plement Dealers Organize CHICAGO, April 19.—The National Agri- Rultural Implement Dealers assoclation has been organized, with the following oflicers President, A, Conger, Akron, O.; vice president, Steven Bull, Racine, Wis.; secre- tary, 0.

It Is well known that almost every town in the west has its local Coxey brigade scheming to get east, and word comes from Utah, Wy oming, Montana and California that the unemployed are organizing branches of the Industrial Army of the United with requirements framed after Kelly's arti- cles of faith, in order to excite a certain sympathy with the communities through which they may s castward, The Coxeyites were outwittel again Wednesday night at Den . through the Intervention of the local author- ities, the sherift of Arapahoe county having pressed twenty deputy sher- iffs into service to protect railroad property along the line of the Union Pacific and Bur- lington, One of the men in attempting to board a freight train on the Union Pacific had the misfortune to fall from the car, two of the wheels passing over him. When picked up it was thought life was extinct, but later the injured man revived and on examination it was found that both legs were broken. Captain Grayson and his Colorado con- tingent encamped at Barr Station Wednesday night, ten miles east of D:nver, but the cap- tain was unable to sect coveted freight train. Burlington officials ordered all pas- senger and frefght trains to pass at Barr at a high rate of spee which was done, and any inclination on the part of train crews to help these men out of the country was nipped in the bud. From dispatches re- ceived here by the Burlington authorities It is learned the Grayson contingent are in desp the weather Welnesday n'ght in the mountains being particularly severe, snow fiying and the ther- mometer rapidly running down to- ward the bottom of the bulb. The men are reported sick, many of them disheart- ened and desertions have reduced the num- ber in the Grayson command to about 100 It is learned that Grayson wired Governor Waite from Barr, asking him to provide three box cars for transportation of the forces to Omaha, and would march to Hud- ay with the hope to find the cars vaiting for them at that point. D. W. Hitcheock, the representative of the Unfon Pacific at San Francisco, wired the general office yesterday that the Golden Gate contingent of the Coxey army desired to negoliate for ten box cars from Ogden to Chicago and asked what arrangements would be made for the party, having informed the Southern Pacifie, which seems to be largely interested in getting the unemployed out of Californ that full passenger rates would be charged. General Manager Dickinson was informed of Hitchcock's wire, but had not replied up to noon whether to provide ac- commodations for the men or not, in view of his lack of information as to the Southern Pacific's acceptance of the Hitchcock ulti- matum. The feeling is becoming prevalent that the worst is vet to come and that professional thugs and blacklegs will shortly take ad- vantage of Kelly's success and proceed to play wolves in sheeps’ clothing. Should they meet with little encouragement the fear is expressed that railroad property will suffer because of the refusal on the part of officials to transport these men to the centers of pop- ulation desired, iployed Who Are Seek- astward, ARE ON THE MARCIL AGAT Coxey's Men Swindled by the Smith and His Gang. HANCOCK, Md., April 19.—C)zey's army salled into barren seas when 1ched Hancocl. A run of twenty miles was made between breakfast and sunset, tha flotilia drawing up under the Hancock bridgs for a late supper. But the supper had to come out of the commissary wagon. A news greeted the leaders. The Unknown Smith, who had promised to go ahead and pave the way for the army, had done o with a ven- geance. He, the “Veiled Lady” and “Cheek” Childs, a young man who had boen the army's advance agent from Massillon, had come to town the previous day, and lolding a public meeting had raised a sum of money, how much could not ba learncd, on the strength of credentials form CoXey. Brown and Coxey at once published a let- ter to Mayor Hubert denouncing the men as imposters, but the three fakirs had flown for Williamsport, the nest stopping place of the army, and messuges were sent ahead, asking their detention.

LONDON, April 19.—Today Is the anni- versary of the death of Lord Beaconsfield, and the monument to the late premier and conservative leader in this city was cov- ered with primroses, his favorite flower, in accordance with the usual custom. An enormous audience, which included very many members of the aristocracy, greeted Lord Salisbury, the conservative leader, when he addressed the Primrose league this afterncon at Clovent Garden theate During his remarks Lord Salisbury said that we were in a position critical for the the endurance of the institutions which it was the especial mission of the socle to sustain. 1f the government mcant that the rejection of home rule by the House of Lords unjustly Interprets the wishes of the people it was then their duty to make the earliest appeal to the country. He did not say that the government was bound to dis- s0lve upon every occasion of difference be- tween the two houses, but when the event which caused the difference of opinion was of a momentous character and affecting the re- lations between the two islands, which had subsisted for seven centuries, they had no right to decide not to appeal to the coun- try. §% 10 Ballabiur thon Q5AcunSad. et esias tration bill, which, he said, wduld disfran- chise thousands and enfranchise many who were vagrants.

HARRISON Several Thousand Oheyenne People Give the Ex-Pres dint a Hearty Greeting. HAS CONFIDENCE IN THE NATION Wil Solve the Present Problem In Time, Though It May Appear Exceedingly Discournging at Present—Few Remarks at Sidney. CHEYENNE, April 19.—(Special Telegram to The Bee)—Ex-President Benjamin Har- rison passed through Cheyenne this afternoon enroute from the Pacific coast to Indianap- olis. He was traveling in his private car, which was attached to the Union Pacific passenger train. With him was his daugh- ter, Mrs. McKee, and children and Mr. Tib- bets, his private secretary. Several thou- sand people had gathered at the depot to give the distinguished visitor an informal reception while the train tarried a few mo- ments in the eity. He introduced by ex-Senator Francis E. Warren and spoke In part as follows: “My Friends: When T left home I did not contemplate being called upon anywhere upon this trip to address my fellow citi- zens. 1 expected to journey through the country as a private citizen, but 1 have at many places been greeted as you greet me here today, by assemblages who have given an expression of their respect that I very highly value. I have not lost In any meas- ure my convictions upon public questions or my profound interest and fellow feeling for the people of the United States. I think I have stated it mildly and that it would be more accurate for me to say that my political connections have been strongly confirmed by the experience of the last year. It does not much matter who is president of the United States, but it does very much matter what the legislative policies of the government at Washington are. 1 believe that they should be thoroughly American. We are witnessing now a spectacle that our country has never witnessed before, a so-called Industrial army gathering from all quarters of the country and hurrying on to Washington to endeavor to impress by their presence upon the members of congress certain political views. Men who go to tell our representa- tives that the workmen of the country are in distress and need relief. It is a new spectacle, 1 believe that if the republican policies " in administration_ had not been threatened — we should not have wit- nessed this sad, almost appalling, mani- festation. WILL COME ON TOP AGAIN. “But I did not intend to discuss political matters. As president I tried to be president of the whole people. As a cltizen, while I have my own convictions and hold them strongly, I hold them in perfect respect for the man who differs from me. We shall got out of this somehow. The accumulated wealth and energy and push of this people is such that we cannot always be kept in the trough of the sea. We shall be on the crest of the wave agaln. How. soon and hy what method the great patriotic people of this country will determine. It it not worth while to hold office. No American can make it worth while. No honor can make it worth while unless a man can leave office with the confidence and respect of his fellow citizens. And now I thank you for your most friendly demonstrations. May prosperity come to you and abide with you, and may every American citizen be guided so that his influence may be on the side of those measures that will advance the general prosperity and hold up at home and abroad the honor of the Amer- ican flag.” At the close General Harrison was greeted with prolonged applause and hundreds crowded to the platform to shake his hand. In conversation he stated that his convic- tions on the silver question had not changed since the time he wrote the letter convening the Brussels conference. He thought the outlook for republican success in the coming elections most encouraging. The general and his party are going di- rectly lome, and his car was attached to the traln which left for Omaha at 4 o'clock. WILL MEET HARRISON, President to Recelve etings as He Passes Through Omaha. 5 The rain prevented a large attendance at the meeting of the Hamilton club in the Patterson block last evening, and the specches and other contemplated features were dispensed with. The reports of those members who attended showed that a lively interest was being taken in the new organi- zation. The names of twenty-three were proposed for membership, and when all the members have reported it is expected that the membership will run up into the hun- dreds. A resolution was passed, according to which the club will join the Union League of Republican clubs of the city, and the following were elected to membership: C. J. Greene, W. R. Horman, John Rush, E. G. Thomas, F. B. Millar, A. C. Troupe, C. C. Chase, John B. Ryan, C. A. Goss, J. B. Haynes, Isaac Adams, E. G. McGitton, C. W, Anderson, Thomas D. Crane, Frank Craw- ford, L. L. Babb, D. L. Johnson, H. B. Coryell, W. A, Foster, H. H. Boyhs, W. W, Slabaugh, F. B. Tiftany and Judge G. W. Ambrose. The members of the club will go to the Unlon depot n a body-this morning to meet x-President Harrison, and all republicans are urged to go with them. President Brome, together with Messrs. Smith, Black- burn, Lewis and White, were named as a committee to present he compliments of the club to the ex-president and express their regrets that he will be unable to stop off in Omaha and make an address. The executive committee of the Union League of Republican Clubs met in the office of President Robinson in the Commer- clal National bank building last night, but no business was transacted on account of the limited attendance. Harrison's Ovation at Sldney, SIDNEY Neb., April 19.—(Special Tele- gram to The Bee)—Ex-President Harrison passed through here tonight In his private car. He met with a splendid ovation and 4 a multitude at the depot. The general is looking exceedingly well and speaks In glowing terms of his California trip. WEATHER FOREC STS.

CHICAGC well arbitr: Aprfl 19.~1n the Sturgess-Far- fon hearing today ex-Senator B. Farwell was under cross-examination, Mr. Farwell frankly told of various plans to get rid of Sturgess, and said that at one time in London Me Sturgess threatened him, and his life, fortune and reputation were in danger. Then Mr. McCarthy pro- duced some letters and read them with much satisfaction. They produced a sensas tion. One reads as follows: A Babcock, Esq.: Dear Sir—The Ger- man lawyers of the banks which contem- plate loaning on our lands suggest that it would be much easler to compass the matter if the state would give title to all tha lands and tak the United States bonds in escrow to be drawn for the same a% lands are now taken by us as work prokrexses My impercssion 18 that it would be easicr to get the state to loan us 000 i & per cent bonds und Kkeep the titlé to the lands until we pay the bonds, We can, in that case, kive Some few leaders in the legislature’ good, large commissions in cash for such service and the state would loke nothing.

FARWISLT x-Scnator Farwell, when asked regarding the ‘meaning of the word -commissions’ Ald he had no fdea what the word meant Mr. Sturgess then produced another letter from J. V. Farwell to Colonel Babcock, who was in Texas. Before it was read, Mr High, Mr. Farwell's attorney, asked In a Eneering fone: “Who I8 this Colonel Bab- cock, and what 8 he colonel o “I'don't know,” €id Mr. McCarthy, “It may have been {he ation ar he was w0 familiar with John V.

At 6:35 last eventag fire totally. destroyed the two-story frame structure at 4513 Dodge street, owned by H. F. Cady and occupied by the Sania Clara Manufactur- ing company, of which Mr. Cady is the head. The first intimation of the fire was a telephone call from the residence of Councilman Davis, close by, and from which the fire could be plainly seen. This was re- sponded to by No. 7 hose company, Thirty- sixth and Jackson streets, which before leaving the house turned in a box alarm. This brought Nos. 7 and 10 to the fire and Chief Salter arrived a few moments later, The unpaved streets in_ places were almost impassable and when No. 7 attempted to cross Farnam street at Forty-fourth the truck became fastened In the deep mud and it was some time before it could pro- ceed. The building in the meantime was almost gone, and when the water was finally got to it, it was of no use and the only thing for 'the firemen to do was to keep the fire from spreading to adjoining residences. The building was bullt three years ago hy W. R. Vaughn for a liyery stable and cost about $5,000. It was fifty feet wide by 160 long, and two stories high, and when tho fire Bot thoroughly started it made a big blaze. The burning boards from the sides and the shingles from the roof were carried four and five blocks, while | the sparks threatencd buildings as far away as Douglas and Far- nam streets on the south. They came so near setting fire to'the residence of Mr. Burt, Forty-fourth and Douglas streets, that he began to take his goods from his house to a place of safety. After the firemen had a chance to work this danger was lessened considerably and Mr. Burt again put his goods back. The business of the Santa Clara Manu turing company is to pack bird seed, make shoe blacking and manufacture staple arti- cles for grocers, and it:had some costly ma- chinery there. There wds a large amount of chemicals in the building, and they blazed and burst and helped the fire. There was nothing saved from the building except the office desk. le loss on the building will reach about $5.000, on which there is $3,100 insurance; $1,500 in the Merchants of Newark and §1,600 in" the Western Assurance. There wus a $4,000 stock, which was a total loss, and on which there is $3,000 insurance in these com- panies: $1,000 in the New Hampshire, $1,600 in the Underwriters and $500 In the Union Assurance, making a total of §6,100 in insur- ance to cover a loss of at least $9,000. The destruction of the factory will throw twenty-five employes out of work. Fire In & Cottage. The two-story frame house, owned by E. V. Evans and occupied by N. D. Schenck, 1402 South Twenty-eighth street, caught fire at 12:30 this morning, and was dam- aged to the extent of about $160. The family have been in the habit of allowing a lamp to remain lighted during the night and it is thought that'a draft of wind struck it and caused an; explosion, which caused the fire. e —— St. Clalr County Twx Levy Up Again, KANSAS CITY, Ap#l 19.—Although Pre- siding Judge Copenhaver of 8t, Clair county has been considered dangerously {ll for some time, he has been ordered by United States District Judge Phillips to appear in this city by next Monday and then and there decide whether ar nat to join Judge Lyons in voting for long-contested St. air bond levy:’ Judge Copenhaver had been granted his liberty by Judge Phillips 80 he could look after county affairs, and while on parole he was taken sick and has been near death's door, but {s now In a falr way to recovery, 'though still very weak.

It is now accepted as the truth Yesterday a more definite statement was made by an official in Chicago, who Is a close enough friend of Mr. Clark to give his statement an almost official character. The officfal safd President Clark had resigned as noted in the Herald and would return to his old love, the Missouri Pacifie, with the title of president. ‘The official confirmed the re- port of President Clark’s {1 health, but de- clared it was caused solely by overwork He s perfectly familiar with the duties of the president of the Missouri Pacific, and the work would not only be lighter but much more congenfal.

CHICAGO, April 19.—The open declaration of war against the Union Pacific, drawn by Chairman Caldwell of the Western association, was issued today, and, April 22, the fight will be on for good. The ciation lines declare that they have been into the fight by the persistent de moralization in western rates for which the Union Pacific has been responsible. The lat- ter road, while th association lines were en- deavoring to persuade it back into the asso- fation, quietly swallowed, by means of con tracts, all the emigrant business to Cali- fornia for 1894, The association lines are not particularly hopeful of getting the pas- sengers away from the Union Pacific, but they can make that line carry the emigran ex that will entail a loss, and this they are determined to do. Some anxiety is felt by the ociation regarding the attitude of the Chicago & Northwestern, although that road has announced that it will side with the association.

BOSTON, April 19.—Patriots’ day was cele- brated for the first time in this city by the closing of the business houses and schools and the flying of the national colors from all public buildings, firing of cannon and ringing of bells. The streets presented a holiday appearance, being thronged with holiday makers. Athletic games and other sports were the features cf the day's cele- bration. A pleasant feature of the meeting of the Sons and Daughters of the Revolution in the old south meeting house was the presence of Dr. Smith, the aged author of the hymn “America.” CONCORD, Mass., April 19.-—All day long Concord and’ Lexingion have shared honors in this, the first celebration of Patriots’ day as a legal holiday, much in the same manner as they did 119 years ago, when the first revolutionary struggle was fought and won here. The yelebration began at sunrise, when the fifty-gun salute was fired by the Concord Independent battery. When the sham_ battle between company I of Concord, the Concord Independent battery, as Amer- ican minute men, and copany D of Fitch- burg and L of Boston, all of the Sixth regi- ment, took place at the Old North Bridge at 11 o'clock, many thousands of spectators had gathered. From this time until the ar- rival of Governor Greenhalge in the after- noon the Massachusetts Soclety of the Sons of the Revolution held its annual meeting. At Lexington the day's festivities were centered around two events—the great mass meeting in the old Hancock Congregational church, facing the common, which was ad- dressed by ex-Governor Robinson, and the afternoon gathering in the town hall in honor of the governor and members of his staff, where many patriotic spceches were made. The programs for both Concord and Lex- ington were carricd out in e detail, and both closed at 4 p. m. by singing and chiming of bells. T Planted in Histor Is.

MAY CATCI A TRAIN Some Hope that Kelly's Army Will Be Riding Before Night Comes. OPINION OF A RAILROAD MANAGER E. 8t.

TOUGHEST DAY THE ARMY HAS HAD Cold Rain, Sieet and Snow Cheeks Ardor of the Commonwealers—Rest and Food Revive Them—Omuha, Kulghts Will March, It is probable that Kelly's wanderers may be given a train to take them to Chicago today. Wires have been kept hot during the night between O ha and Chica officials of the Rock Island and Milwaukes roads, and a definite decision is expected this morning upon the question as to whether the army will be furnished trans- portation. Mr, George Wilson, master m Island, arrived in Omaha trip through the w St. John, general manager. and chanic of the Rock last night from a st and will leave for Chicago this morning. Mr. St. John was questioned by a reporter for The Bee cone cerning the possible movement of the army, but was not prepared to answer definitely s he has been in the west and southwest for the past two weeks and was mot conversant with e policy that may have been adopted by the presidents of the lowa roads covering the matter. He expressed himself as hoping that some solu- tion of the problem that is now pressing both the people and the railways may be found, and that the suffering and hardship which it' is asserted this large army Is at present enduring may be reduced to a mini- mum, and that speedily. Mr. St John inquired carefully into the condition of Kelly's men and into the chur- acter of the army and expressed his warmest sympathy for the homeless workmen who e the victims of fortune and circumstance. He would make no positive statement of his plans, but could not conceal his interest in the welfare of the men, and it Is safe to as- sert that if his wish is adopted by the offi- clals of the company Kelly's men will be taken to Chieago at the most liberal terms, terms which the army will be able to afford with (he aid of its friends and sympathizers in Omaha and Council Blu KELLY WILL COME BACK. Unless a_train & fortheoming by 12 o'clock today for the transportation of General Kelly and ‘his Industrial army from their present camping place at Weston to Chicago the oc- cidental commander proposes to emulate the king of France and march back again He slated last evening that he would not proceed another mile on foot, and that unless the promises thut had heen made, to him to induce him to move eastward were made good he would head his army for Omaha an see what could be done in the way of get- ting transportation southward and’ east via St. Louls. The march from Chautiugua to Weston was a hard one, and was well caleulated to try the spirits, as well as the physical en- durance, of the men, for the roads were everywhere sticky and slippery, while some of the flats across which the road lay were seas of soft mud. The rain fell in frequent showers, and these seemed to increase In in- tensity and duration as the march continuel, The' start was delayed until 11:35 o’clock partially owing to the demonstrations of the hundreds of citizens from the Bluffs, who turned out early in the norning, and seemed loth to see "the Commonwealers lcave. Municipal officials and influential citizens of the Bluffs assisted in packing the provisions on the wagons provided for that purpose by the committee of safety, and personally aided in all the preparations for the march. The men were drawn up in line for fully an_hour along the stretch of roadway that had been their camping ground for forty- elght hours, and at 11 o'clock the bugle sounded, Colonel Baker took his place at the head of the column, which swung around at the order to march, and passed to the westward before the long lines of spectators. countermarching at the corner of the Chau- tauqua grounds and again passing in view before their charitable sympathi Cheer followed cheer during this mancuyver both from eltizens and the Industrial soi- diers, the gencrosity of the press and people of the two cities occasioning the greater part of the demonstration. The flags, rooster and golden eagle donated here occupied prominent places fa the line and were each and all uprouriouriy cheered Another halt was rendered necessary be- cause of the great number who pressed for- ard (o shake General Kelly by the hand. Scores of ladies expressed a wish to express their sympathy, and he was compelled to make a round of the carr A8 e left the last and started toward the head of the waiting column his men accorded him a most entliusiastie ovation as he walked along the line, many of them fracturing military discipline by rushing out to selze him by the hand. The general was very much affected by this remarkable demonstration, and was forecd to turn aside to conceal the tears that would not be Kept back. MARCHING THROUGH THE MUD. gain In motion, and the warch was on in earnest. Kelly was of- fered a place in one of the carriazes that was to accompany the army for a few miles, but he declined, saving that he proposed (o take at least this day's march on foot, the same us the rest of the boys, He adhered to this determination, declining the proffer of a saddle horse by The Bee correspondent when the W was half completed, and fared no than any of the privates who trudg long with their \blankets looped across their shoulders and the vari- ous articles of camp furniture hanging .at thele sides or from poles suspended between them The condition of the roads grew worse, and the last two miles were covered under ex ceptionally trying circumstances. The rain fell in torrents, and hail and sleet drove in the faces of the but they did not mur mur or complain. The entire commund seemed o be in the best of spirits, and the familiar strains of *Marching Thro' Georgla™ and "John Brown's Body" assailed the rural atmosphere with a spirit and vehem- ence never before experienced In those ke questored vales, Kelly himslf tried his hand with the cornet, and succecded in giving a very good rendition of Sherman’s march.
