COIEK'S ARMY CROWS A Number of Recruits Ac cepted at Alliance. ALLIANCE, 0., March -Thin point J was reached by the com in nweal army i after a march of 14 miles over very rougu ami muddy roads, The third day out from MassiJJon was as unpleasant us any ' of its predeccs.fi rs. Cold, cutting winds and an occasional snow flurry prevailed till dark. Camp Peffer at Louisville, 0., was deserted at 9 o'clock by the army of peace. With three cheers for the mayor the column swung off on its first long tramp. Curious peop'e gaped at the freaky procession as it passed through the country. At Maximo a short M. p was made and m le further on tin- col UIIIU halted for ltincli. When the college settlement at Mount , Union, on the outskirts of Alliance was reached, the gaping crowds began to thicken. From that point to the location f Camp Hunker llill, at the Alliance fairgrounds, people 11 eked out to see the odd caval cade pass by. Tents were raised and the shivering, thinly clad citizens of the communes gathered wood lor fires, liy the time supper rations were distributed things were comfortable. Alliance is the most enthusiastic town yet reached. Many sympathizers with the movement live here. Supplies to the amount of half a car load came in. A load of hay for the stock was incl .i led. The street railways ran excursion cars to the scene every 15 minutes. As evening came on recruits began to come in and Adjutant Smith soon ha I new men on the rolls. This rn.ik - the eolumn 184 string. Th? new men are somewhat better appeuring than their predecessors. At 4 o'clock a public meeting was held in the opera house of 1 lie town. Com mander Coxey spoke to an immense house and was followed by Chief Marshal Carl Browne. Another meeting was held later in the evening. The Independent church, a body of free thinkers, offered the.r building as sleep ing quarters, but it was decline 1 by .Mar shal Browne. A very hostile disposition is noticeable in the camp. It Is aimed at the c rres spondents accompanying the expedition. ! The men claim that they have been i mercilessly abused and want revenge. It has been learned from a prominent state militia man that the feeling at the | stute capitol has entirely changed and I some insecurity is now felt The fear of the state officials is that the army may be set upon by disorderly elements m some of the towns to bo passed through. For that reason a letter has beeu written t> the captains of all companies along the route. No order to keep arms is given, but the letter advises the officers to have the men ready for muster. At 5 o'clock last night Commander Coxey left for Massilou, his home, thence to go by a later train to Chicago to attend n stock sale at the Union stock yards, j lie denies that the trip has anything to do with his financial difficulties. II • says he will rejoin the command ut Colum biana Thursday. ' "I'l'S FOOIJSH—CHILDISH." Senator Poffer's Opinion of tho Coxey Crusade, WASHINGTON, March 88.—"Oh, it's foolish—childish," remarked Senator Pef fer, when asked about Cox -y's army. ' I have advise I against it from the first," i he conliuued, " and have written letters 1 and in speeches pointed out th it no oh- | ject could be attained by any such hap- I hazard movement as this. It is no spon taneous uprising and organization like the Farmer's alliance. Coxey is a hone trader, horse racer and againbh-r to start with, and it is not presumed that h • could bring übout him the men who would be necessary to give weight to such u move ment. "I believe in organization, but there is 1 nothing in this movement that commends itself to the judgment of those who de- ' sire to stand up and light for men ami women. This is, of cour-e, one of peace, | and I do not anticipate that it will cause any trouble, but the authorities cunuoi but prepare to see that no broaches of the peace are committed. "ido not think I have had such a hearty laugh for months as I did when 1 r*a I i.i the dispatches that the army had rested one night at 'Camp Poller.' I could not believe that I Was to be so honored, as f have discouraged the movement from the first" Ilccruitfi from Ohio. HAMILTON. 0., March 28.

I WASHINGTON, March 28. Mr. Thurston, the Hawaiin minister, was asked if he had anything to say regarding the pub lished remarks of Theophilus 11. Davies, in which occurred deciarutious to the ef fect that the provisional government are j "adventurers," that they are maintaining j "a reign of terror" in Honolulu, that the community is at the mercy of a lot of) spies and broken-down Germans and Por i lugue-e, and in which he describes its "utter weakness'' and denies that it is about to establish a permanent republic, j Mr. Thurston replied: "I tl n't know that there is much that needs to be said. After the report by Mr. Willis to the president, that the members of the provisional government are with out exception men of integrity and pub | lie spirit, and that the royalists, of whom Mr. Davies is a leader, are a had lot, it does not seem necessary to make a reply to every man who can get himself inter viewed. This person is what may be called a 'professional mischief maker.' He has for years been the head and front ; of an unreasoning anti-American, British faction iu Honolulu, and, although he has become a rich man through the bounty o! the United States by means of the re cipr city treaty,the is always ready to go out of liis way to oppose an i injure the advancement of American interests in Hawaii. Only a couple of months prior to the reyolution in Honolulu he wrote a seri-s of letters to the papers oppos ing the establishment of a United States naval station at Pearl Harb r under any conditions, the reason, among others, that it would become a nest of 'criminals,' 'burglars,' 'defaulters' and 'smugglers,' who woul 1 silly out and prey upon the surrounding country. Ho was so proud of this corr spon lenco that he had it printed in pamphlet form and sent it around broa least. ' He has been spending throe or four months in Hawaii, making the most frantic efT rts to stir up strife and over throw the provisional government, lie lias utterly failed and is now renew in g bis efforts here. The law providing for the depo tatiou of dangerous persons and suspicious characters who are at tempting to overthrow the government, was provided for just such men as Davits. "As to tlie reign of terror, it exists only among the royalists of the Davies stripe, who are gradually realizing the terrible fact that the monarchy and its perquis ites have gone forever, j "Davies prophecies that no republican government will bo formed. The pro visional government has a most exasperating habit, however, of failing to fulfill royalist prophecies. Amid all this talk the government had gone quietly about its business, paid its debts, accumulated a larger treasury sur plus than there has been for years, kept t lie peace, and is now proceeding with de liberation and dignity to establish a re public by calling a c< nstitutional con vention, in the selection of which all voters, foreign and native, are to lie al lowed equal voice, the one condition be ing the renunciat ion of allegiance to the monarchy and un oath of support to the republic. "Davies and those whothink we should again put our necks under the heel of Lilioukalani claim that the choice as be tween a republic and the monarchy should be put to vote. We do not propose to do anything of the kind, however. | That question has been settled by arms, and we do not prop se to reopen it for discussion any more than the United States opened the questi n of state's rights and slavery after the war had set tled those questions. The monarchy is a thing of the past.

STUDENT TAYLOR'S CASE, lie Must Stay in Jail Until He Purges Himself of Contempt. ! WATKINS, N. Y., March 28. Judge I Smith has rendered his decision in the habeas corpus case of F. L. Taylor, the Cornell student, who was sent to jail by Judge Forb -s for contempt. The i prisoner is remanded to the sheriff of Tompkins county under the commitment upon which he is now committed.

If ho shall appear before the grati I jury at it* next meeting and there make answer to the questions which have been asked ! him, or make oatli that the answer to | such questions will tend to criminate : him, he may then clnim his privilege and j will have purged himself of the contempt | fur which he now stands committed* The Flag Case Dismissed. | NEW HAVEN, Conn..
