THE REVOLT OF “LABOUR" IN THE' UNITED STATES.
The unemployed continue to take possession of all prasible railway trafos, and their endeavours to reach Washington are unabated. A trainload of them has been captured at Ollo by the militis, and another by the cavalry at Oregon.
[The foregolog message refers to un organised movement set on, foot by a number of daring and desperate 'discontents, chief of whom is a man named Coxey. Tha' è ese men may have legitimate prievances deserving speedy redress is possible, but the whole scheme bears a suspicious resemblance to a gigantic foraging expedition. It seems that the idea of the agitators was to recruit a vast army of the unemployed in the Eastern States of the Union and to march, gala- Ing in numbers as they proceeded Washing- ton where they would lay their claims before Government. The Grst of these was State em- ployment, the second the stoppage of all im- migration foto the country for a term of ten years, and the third the introduction of masses to pro- vent allens from owning land within the borders of the Union. Coxey, the most prominentorganizer of the movement, is assisted by General Frr, Colonel R. C. Aubrey, Lieutenant-Colonel J. B. Payne, with General Lewis Frye as chief of brigada. The latest mall reports indicate that the "arm" was well received in the eastern part of the State of Ohio and hundreds of the unemployed ware daily swelling their maks. By the time it reached Little Rock, on the rat of last month, the "army" was he- glaning to assome alarming proportions and awakening serious thoughts in the minds of the people of the State. Two hundred more of the and joined their comrades, who were camped Army arrived there that night on a stock train

There was to draking, and while the army was in camp 'General' Fry addressed at least 500 people on the financial situation. His language was temperate and mild. He avowed the movement was just starting that locas than thirty days 400,000 men would be in Washington for common purpose.
