Actlve Preparations JUnde te Meet the In vnslen Tlinumid Are New Tnwnplntf or ItltlltiB Toward the Natien's Cap- tal-Wliat Will Tliey De There? Washington, April 10.

Washington Is beginning te seriously think of the Invasion of the Coxey army. The fact that the mob of tramps will undoubtedly reach the capital, has started nc-tive preparations te meet the invasion. It Is net the original Cexey's army that the authorities fear, bocause these can be easily handled, but it is the general movement which seems te be taking form all ever the country te ceme and meet the commonweal here en May 1. It is this nnnex that will bring thousands here. These bodies of men have given notice that they will meet the army here, and attempt te give lm-pressiveness te the triumphal ontrance Inte the city.

They will net inarch down through Maryland with Coxey, but they will pour Inte the city ever the railroads during the few days preceding his coming. The auxiliaries will probably camp in the parks and reservations of the city, and will give the police infinitely mere trouble than the main body of the army. That such preparations nre being made by thousands of sympathizers with Coxey is well known at commonweal headquarters in this city, although nothing has been divulged as yet concerning these plans, the original intention having been te launch the entire invasion as a great surprise. Hundreds of letters have been received by "Citizen" Hcd-stone and ethers at headquarters, stating that groups of workingmen from Maryland, Pennsylvania, New Yerk, Virginia and West Vlrgina were forming and making arrangements te secure transportation te the city in large numbers about May 1 or sooner, if necessary. Many will come in en freight cars, but ethers will take advantage of reduced rates they have been able te he-cure, and will ceme in en passenger coaches.

The eflicials at police headquarters arc beginning te realize the seriousness of the situation as complicated by this development. Mnj. Moero held long conference Wednesday with Police Inspector Iiellinberger about this general and widely extended "On te Washington" mevement, and means were discussed for meeting the exigencies of the case. The original Coxey army has new dwindled te a thing of little importance bofero this mere serious Invasion. Active preparations are being made by the district mllltiu and the war department officials themselves are seriously discussing certain plans that are likely te be put into execution looking te the protection of government property.

There nre five henry batteries and light battery at the barracks In this city, four troops of caralry at Fert Meyer nnd the marines nt the navy yard The two batteries at Fert Menree, supplied with Gatling guns and armed with rifles, may be ordered te Fert MeHenry in case serious trouble is anticipated, as they can be brought from that point In an hour. Washington, April 10. While the police authorities of Washington are net making known their plans in advance, they are laying active preparations te receive Gen. Coxey and his common weal army. Te members of the dctectlve branch of the force, Ofllcers Qulnlan and lleyd, were sent te join the army at Cumberland Saturday.

Thelr business will be te make the acquaintance of any criminals who may be enlisted in the ranks and te learn the true inwardness of the mevement, if it conceals any sinister designs. CeL Redstene, the local agent of the commonweal, visited pollce headquarters Tuesday te labor with Inspector Iiellinberger and convince him that the purposes of the movement are beneficent IIe represented that the cru-Baders are all law abiding men and declared that they would remain in town but a few hours. The inspector declined te take stock in reincarnation and denounced the army. Knights of I.uber te Jein Them. Huffai.0, N.

April 10. Buffalo will have a delegation at Washington when Cexey's commonweal gets there, but it will net be made up of men who hnve walked.

At 5 o'clock Wednesday morning an angry looking mob begun te gather at the scene, and when 7 o'clock arrived, mere than COO men carrying pickaxes and spades, were patrolling the read. Four policemen were sworn in as deputy sheriffs, und a force of eighteen men were put te work. The strikers threatened te kill the first man who dared attempt te de any work, and when one of the men, mere daring than his fellow workmen, jumped into the ditch, he was savagely assaulted.

The handful of deputies were overpowered, and the strikers were left in possession for the time beiug. At 10 o'clock the mob further armed with clubs and cudgels, and it seenuid as if It would be impossible te avoid trouble. Sheriff Cellins was telephoned for and hurried te the scene, taking with him half a dozen deputies Alter a conference with the water beard about neon, it was decided te abandon the work for the day, and then the clash came. When Engineer Williams attempted te withdraw hih men peacefully, the strikers became furious and made an onslaught en one of the men. Sheriff Cellins ordered the mob te dispersc, threatening te sheet if the order was net obeyed.

The mob appeared maddened, however, and continued the attack. Then the sheriff ordered his posse te fire. He suited the action te the word, and fired three shots from his revolver in rapid succession. This was a signal for a volley from the deputies, who emptied thelr revolvers at the advancing mob. Twe strikers were shot dead, and nt least 15 ethers are mere or lcs6 dangerously wounded.

It Offers a Chance for Silver te Be Recognized, Yet Increases the Tariff Tending Negotiations Tariff te lie Doubled Upen Rn Bllsh Manufactured tloeds Until Knglnntf Slmll Come te Term. Washington, April 10.

Senater Ledge's proposed amendment te the tariff bill, which he offered Tuesday, was exciting a great deal of comment Wednesday among the leading members of both parties in the senate The amendment is another indication that the silver question Is likely te be Injected Inte the tariff debate In a fashion which may prove most uncom-fertablo for the southern free traders. Senater Ledge's preposition is, brielly stated, te double the tnrlff upon nil goods manufactured In Great Britain, or in any of her colenics, and te place upon such goods or products as may be en the free list nn ad volercm duty of 155 per cent whenever such discriminating duties against the products of Great Britain or the British colonies or dependencies shall net interfere with existing treaties. These discriminating duties nre te be collected until Great Britain "shall assent te and tnke part in an international agreement, te gether with the United States, for the coinage nnd use of silver." Wlicnevcr this amendment shall be reached by the senate debate upon the tariff bill the talented junior senator from Massachuetts will deliver a speech upon it which is likely te cause decided honsatien. Senater Ledge's advocacy of silver has steadily grown In ils assertiveness, and his friendship for bimetallism has of Inte been dcelnrcd with Increasing frequency. His amendment threatening the British imports with discriminating duties Is regarded as the only way of presenting the only method by which the obstinacy of her majesty's present government against bimetallism can be effectively overcome.

England will net yield te either pcr-snasien or argument, but she is likely te recognize the ferce of a prohibitive cestums barrier against her Importations Inte this ceuntny, which she can nt any moment terminate and reap the ndvautage of the distinctively English tariff bill new pending by consenting te bimetallism. Indeed, as Senater Ledgo pointed out Wednesday in conversation, the only practicable method of compelling Great Hrltnln te change her anti-silver policy Is through the tariff.
