WOXEY'S army has t last changed
U its title and become Coxey'l
Pnavy. The change WtS made
this morning when the Common
weni struck camp t the Cumberland
Base Ball park, nrid marched with
standards aloft sad eaeb piece of tne
band playing a different tnne down to
the eanal wharf, wu.re two bots of
Mertaus' Sons Lumber company lav in
wait. Thf start w is made about S 90,

groaning uuder the remnant of the un
expected fr lunch of Sunday and
Monday, winch Browue, with bis usual
aptness at Scripture quoting, said:
"Came like the manna in the wilder
ness, where when of clip fragments
Moses took up twelve pakets full."
The march down the dusty pike and
through Cumberland was m MM be
tween lines of ipectators who occas
ionally broke into good natured chaff,
and linally gave a general cher for
A'.miral Coxoy, as b mounUd the
quarter deck of bis now craft and
glided off down the eanal, like a new
Columbus, looking for fresh worlds of
peace and plenty for his followers
Mayor Hopewril Hebb was among
the, spectators of tiie embarkation, ae
was also Sheriff Kinj with hi posse of
special deputies, who were sworn in to
protect tue town last Satnrd ay, but
wno bare had nothing to do but draw
their pay.
Chief Marshal Browne, in his gen
eral orders issued last night, sail. "We
have 'crossed the Alps' of onr journey,
where the ice ami snow smote our
legion, cot with tb?cold hand of dsath,
thanks to unceasing care, and we are
no x in the snnny Italy of 'Maryland,

and we cannot fail."
BIU.ED AS FREIGHT.
The enitiarkition of the Common
weal army wan a lively affair. Under
the instructions of the general Mana
ger, the whole of the army was billed
as "freight, " twenty-dx tons in all, at
M eents per ton, which was tS, 19 more
tbau it Coxey had been handling coal
instead of men, horses and camp lnm
ber. The coat of the trip, including toll
paid the Canal company, was $fio. Tne
idditional amount for provisions was
very little, for the Iiheral contributions
received here were enongh for almost,
half the boat trip.
These provisions, by tha way, though
given with very (rood grace, were the
price paid the Commonweal com
mander for keeping his men outside of
town. And from this sort of practical
blackmail he is likely to be well sup
ported during the remainder of his trip,
for the town en route have found it
eheapcr to pay the Comnuonwealers to
stay outside than it is to let them
come in and "find" themselves.
The barges in which the trip was to
be made were the ordinary coal carriers
that Ijad been aweptoutand filled with
hay. The ten ton of horses ware led
np a gangway, and, seated on their
haunches, gently slid into the barge
apportioned them, while the 13i tons of
men picked np the remaining tons of
inanimate freight and dumped it into
the other barge, anbseqnently drop
ping themselves in on top of it.
The etart was made just before noon,
three mules on the towpath plodding
along at n lively gait, the Skipper
smoking hi old clay pipe with one toot
cocked np on the after cabin and the
members of the commonweal swarm
ing like ants over every part of the
deck.
The first camp announced in Browne's
general order last night was in honor
of the citizens of this place. Camp
Cumberland, to be pitched at Hancock
on Thumday. Fridav night it is ex
pected to mako Williamsport, whore
Cnmp California, a tribute to Frvn's
followers, will bo located, after that
the army takes the road once more and
marches to Hagerstown.

NELLIE GRANT'S PLAN.
Mrs. Sartoris Has Decided to Settle
Down Permanently in Wash
ington, D. C.
Washington, April it Tiwre are
few pTsous in this citv at the present
time in whom the women folk take
snch a qniet interest as in Mrs. Nellie
Grant Sartoris, who has lor several
davs been a gust at tho Arlington
hotel.
It is only a few days ago tht Mrs.
Sirtoris arrived from England. She
cime almost directly here and lias re
mained very quietly much of the time
iu her apartments at her hotel.
She is only waiting, it is said, for
Mrs General Grant, ber mother, who
is esDeeted to arrive here from San
Diezo, Cal , at any time, before pur
chasing a resideuce.
Although Mrs. Sartotis is not a soci
ety woman in the sense in which tne
terra is used h-re, she will undoubfdlv
fignre prominently in many social
events.
Alth'Ush there have been many
changes in the youthful flOS and slim
fiirnro or the bride who sailed away
across tbe seas twenty years ago in the
Mrs. Sartoris of today, her old time
friends see many rmin lers of the
Xeliie Grant of 1874 Although now
a matron in appeaiance ber ys are
still bright and frank, and hsr manner
has lost none of its quiet tenderness
Tnere is more of a resemblance now in
her features to those of her father, and
although she resided abroad for so
many years, Mrs. Sartoris is iu mauner,
sneech and appearance an American
woman.
JjShe has laid aside her widow's weeds,
bnt dresses quietly in dark colors, and
is passionately fond of her children,
one of whom, her eldest on, is now a
a stndent at Oxford university in Eng
land, and wiil not join bis mother here
until his gradntion.
Mrs. Sartoris may be neeonnted
wealthy, even in these days of great
wealth at the Sspttal She hag an an
nual income of 80,000, derived from
the property left, to her upon the death
of ber father iu law.

transpires that the saw mill fire which
occurred at Mount Yeager a week ago,
in which Joshua Santee was fatally
burned, was the work of robbers.

Santee was chloroformed, and tha mill

tbe crime.
Thess facts have been kent quiet by
friends of tbe deceased in the hope that
the guilty party would be more easily
apprehended. Detectives working on
the case claim they have a clue to the
psrnetrators, and that an arrest will
soon be made. Before his death Santee
told where the money was hidden, but
none was fonnd. The affair has created
great excitement. Santee was a
wealthy farmer. He owned a 800 aero
farm, operated two saw milis, and era

The rebel shins sro the Republics,
Meteoro, Iris, Urano and Esporausa,
They nr" In a dilapidated condition
and tho rebels on board of tuxtn are
suffering from sickness, wounds and
lack of proper supplies. Their tempo
rary wants have b'"u supplied, with
the consent of the Brazilian minister,
Who has received advices from Rio de
Janeiro, saying that the B-lier.il am
nesty will be granted to the insurgent
ink and file mid that the Brazilian
government will pay tbe quarantine
xpobses or the ships if they are stir
rendered to tho Brstillan minister.
Consequently, tbe Argentine govern

PEIXOTO AC0E1T9 ADVICE,
it is understood that President Peix-
oto, in adopting this wise and lenient
policy, bas acted uuder tne afivioe of a
foreign power which has the Interests
oi the republic or Brazil at heart.
iNothing seems to be known ot the til
timate destination or Admiral le Mello
and General Salgado, tnoutih it is be
lieved that tbe former Will take the
earliest opportunity of escaping to
some foreign country where he can
hide himself for the rest of his life.
(In all sides the utmost contempt is
SI pressed for Admit il I) Mello, whose
base desertion of Admiral Detiama is
looked upon as being a piecd of
cowardly treachery, which even the
idmirnl'i most Intimate supporters
sondemn.
To such an extent dries this feeling
prevail that it. is openly stated that Da
Game propoaes to sek out Admiral De
Mello nud compel lnm to meet bun It)
mortal combat Those who should
know Admiral le Mello the best be
lieve that be will tal:e care to avoid
any such meeting,
If the rebel admiral falls into the
blinds of President Peixoto there is
little doubt but that he will be
promptly tried by court martial and
