SUED FOR A FORTUNE. Scott's Daughter -in - Law Wants $100,000 Because He Separated Her From Her Husband, 'And Extorted a Tale of Dishonor From Her. A Wealthy Philadelphia Shipper'! Con spiracy with HU Sen to Hid htm of a Woman Married In Halt*. By the Associated Press. Philadelphia, May t.—John Scott, the millionaire coal shipper of tbis city and Boston, was today sued for $100,000 damages. The plaintiff is his daughter in-law. The divorce granted in Dead wood, 8. D., has been eet aside by the court there and the case will have to be tried oyer. The firat that Mr. Scott knew of the marriage of his son, MifHin Scott, to Erwig Elvira Morchen, was bis meeting tbe couple at Southampton, England,on tbeir bridal trip, while he, with hie wife and daughter, was about starting for a tour on tbe continent. Mr. Scott sent the bridegroom back to bis studies at Heidelberg, whioh be did not know that he had left until he saw him as a benedict on the deck of the Bteamsbip. Tbe bride he took with bis wife and daughter on his trip, where, for a time all seemed to have gone well, except that yonng Mrs. Scott complained that ber father-in-law waa very carious about her past life. This state of things, however, was in terrupted by a letter addressed to tbe son, which in the son's absence the father opened. Thia letter was from a midwife in Berlin, who claimed tbat young Scott owed her a bill for services rendered his wife. In the letter waß a full account of an operation on her sis ter, and Hedwig's name was used in as sociation with a young German named Frits Theissen, whom Hedwig had met at Coblentz in November of 1800, aome five months before her marriage. On reading the letter, Mr. Scott went himself to Glasgow with tbis son's wife and placed her in the home of her Bis ter, the wife of a Presbyterian minister. He did net leave Scotland until he had received word from bis daughter-in-law tbat Theissen bad betrayed her while he was at Coblentz. Mr. Scott admits having secured tbis confession, and says that it was made by the girl of her own free will. The family then left Hedwig with ber sister and returned to this country, and young Scott went to Dead wood to study law. After tbe proper time of residence he filed a petition for divorce, alleging tbat be had been deceitfully led to marry the girl, being himself tbe father of a child to which she gave birth in July, '91. On thia the divorce now act aaide was granted. In her complaint the wife charges that the divorce waß fraudulently obtained without her knowledge in pursuance of a conapiracy between the father and the young man, inaiats tbat the child waa bia, and declares tbat the confession waa extorted from her by Mr. Scott under threats of withdrawal of all support from herself and husband, and never allowing her te see Mifflin again. The trial for the damage suit promises to be of itnereat. NATIONAL PASTIME. Results of Yesterday's Games on th. League Diamonds. Bt, Louis, May I.—Cleveland won to day'a game in a shut-out.

London, May I.—Dispatches received here from the different capitols of Europe show tbat May day baa passed without and serious diaturbance. In this city the anarchists received a lesson from a mob in Hyde park, and the socialists made a demonstration in the same place.

After the mob had been dispersed in Berlin several groups proceeded to the Thiergarten, but they were overawed by tbe detectivea and aoon diepersed. A number of pereons collected during the afternoon in the southeastern part of the city. The police, however, pre vented any large aasemblage of people, and would not allow tbe orators to de liver speechea. Tonight tbere were eeveral orderly meetings of Socialists. A large meeting was held at Mar seilles, but no seriouß disturbance took place. At Hamme, Belgium, tbere was some rioting, but order was soon restored by the police.

All those who took pait in tbe procession wore a piece of red ribbon in their buttonholes. The procession waa headed by a band of mu sic and thousanda of flags were carried. Some of the flags were draped and oth ers were red and inscribed with such mottoes aa "Down with the masters," "Prepare for the coming revolution," etc. Upon arriving at Hyde Park the So cialists sang tbe Marseillaise. William Morris and other Socialist apeakera ad dressed the aasemblage. Editor Samuel of the Commonweal, an anarchist organ, used expressions which aroused indignation. Finally the anti anarcbista made a rush toward tbe platform and the anarcbiata attempted to defend the orator, but were chased out of the park. Many of tbe moet prominent "reds" had their coats torn from their backs. Grata. Austria, May I.—May day waa marked by disorder in thia city today. The trouble waa caused by men wbo took part in a procession and wbo re fused to haul down the red flags whicb tbey were displaying when they were ordered to do ao by tbe police.

San Francisco, May I.—An action was begun in the superior court today that will probably result in radical changes in the management of two of San Francisco's leading daily news papers. George K. Fitch, the surviving partner of the late Loring-Pickering and the late James W. Simonton, in the ownership of the Daily Morning Call and the Daily Evening Bulletin, hied a petition praying for the appointment of a receiver for tbe Call and Bulletin prop erties.. He asks that tbe reeeivera bo appointed be ordered to cell tbe Call property and 10 days subsequently boII j the Bulletin, at public auction or at private sale, to tbe highest bidder for cash. Mr. Fitch asks for a final ac counting between all the parties in in terest. It is eaid that the strained relations between Mr. Fitch and R. A.

Judge Seawell granted a new trial upon tbe ground tbat the verdict was contrary to the evidence introduced. District Attorney Barnes appealed from the order granting tbe new trial. Tbe aupreme court has decided that Judge Seawell was competent to grant a new trial, and so ruled. KNIGHTS OF LABOR. GRAND MASTER WORKMAN SOV EREIGN SHO VVS HIS HAND. . The Organization Means to Stand by Kelly In His Effort to Secure Transportation from the Rail roads to Go East. Dks Moines, la., May I.—Grand Mas ter Workman Sovereign arrived in Dee Moinea today with the avowed intention of throwing the influence of the Knights of Labor in an effort to secure a train for Kelly's army. In an interview with an Associated Pieaa reporter Mr. Sovereign said that his action was determined upon a meetingof bis co-executive board, held in Chicago yesterday, and asserted that this organization would Bee to it that the Industrials secured a train, even though every railway in lowa abould be tied up. "I came to Dcs Moines with the pur pose of showing my hand in tbia mat ter," be aaid. "Kelly shall not walk out of the city. I shall attempt to se cure transportation without trouble, but if a train can't be secured for money we have more drastic measures at hand." "What will yon do if you are rsfused a train?" "I can only repeat," aaid he, "that Kelly shall not walk out. The army shall ride though every road in lowa be tied up. Ido not say tbat the Knights of Labor could take such action of it self. With tbe aid of tbe American Railway union, should a move be made, it will be successful. When I left Presi dent Debs in St. Paul bia last words were that anything we ordered bia people would atand by, and I made a similar proposition. "Thia thing ia aimply an issue be tween united railroads and organized labor, and if we can't win here we might as well stop righting. Tbe issue ia a square one, and we will meet it. We are in sympathy witb tbe Coxey and Kelly movement as it attracts pnblic attention and invites discussion of the interests we repreaent, I am reliably informed tbat tbe majority of Kelly's men are members of labor unions, and we will neither let them starve nor walk out of Dcs Moines." The grand master workman says he expected to call a labor meeting to con sider the matter tomorrow, and the action of the assembly ie looked forward to with anxiety. Meetinga were held in tbe Grand opera house this after noon and tonight, which Kelly, General Weaver, Colonel Speed and others ad dressed. Tbe audience paid admission. Admissions increased the army's hank account by about $300. Sovereign addressed the army at the camp this evening and aroused much enthusiasm among the men by hia ex preaeions of sympathy. A committee consisting of Sovereign, Weaver, ex-State Master Workman Van dermeulen of the K. of L., Secretary Barnet of tbe American Railway union and two labor union leaders were ap pointed to see that transportation for Kelly is immediately secured. Sovereign sent a cipher message to President Debs tonight, which he refused to tranaiate, SHOOTING BAILIFFS. Jack HcNamara Plugs His Predeoessor for Assaulting Him.

REACHED WASHINGTON, Bnt There Coxey, Browne an J Jones Were Jugged For Unlawfully Entering the Capitol Grounds. Christopher Columbus and Fakir Browne iv Jail. A Bean* or Tnrmoll Whioh Ended With oat Bloodshed — Communir.klflri Seeking to Unite With Coxey ne Boon at They Can. By the Anenrlaterl Press. Washington, May I.—The march of Coxey's Commonweal army, wn;o ! i started from Massillon, Ohio, on Easter Sunday, ended today by the interrup tion of the police. Fortunately tbete were no casualties, and tonight General Coxey is addressing his burlesque army in camp, while Marshal Carl Browne sleeps in a police station cell, and Ohrti topber Columbus Jones, the leader of the Philadelphia commune, and thu comedian of the movement, endeavote to appropriate a share of tbe martyrdom in an adjoining cell. The performauce enacted within thf» shadow ot the capitol today is withou. a counterpart in the memory of Washing' tonians. The broad smooth plaza o( several acres facing the east front of the capitol was packed by a crowd of men and women numbering 10,000. The capitol steps and the porticos under toe Grecian pillare were tilled with people of both sexes, well dressed, and most of the members of congress were in the throng, An early adjournment had been taken by the senate on account of the death of Senator Stockbridge, but the house, not wishing to seem to be terrorized by the demonstration, went through the semblance of a session with a handful of members. More than 200 city police reinforced tbe capitol officers, and detectives from several cities were sprinkled through the crowd, for the concentration of lawless local characters gave just grounds for ap prehensions of trouble apart from the resence of the Coxeyitea. It waß shortly after 11 a. m. wben tbe army halted in tbe public square south of the grounds. Ita five mile march down from Brightwood through tbe principal streets of the city had been witnessed by thousands. There were 500 men in line, Mrs. Annie L. Digga, tbe Populiatic agitator of Kansas, in a barouche; Goxey'a 17-year-old daughter in white on acieam-coloredateed, repre senting }he goddeas of peace; Carl Browne on a great gray stallion ; Gen. Jacob Ooxey, hia wife, the infant, "Legal Tender" Coxey, together in an other carnage; Virginia la Vailette, said to be an actress, on horseback, draped in an American flag as tbe Phil adelphia commune's goddess of peace; the unemployed carrying white flags of peace on etaves, and the nondescript banners eetting forth the doctrinea of good roads and enmity to plutocrata aprinkled through tbe caravan. Marshal Browne halted tbe proceesion in the street, walked back to Coxey'a carriage, the general kissed hie wife, and tbe two moving spirits of the affair forced tbeir way over the plaza to tbe capitol etepa, their men acting under orders aud standing in their tracks. After Coxey and Browne passed, a yelling crowd of several hundred men, most of them following Browne, con spicuous because of hia unique cos tume, trampled and tore ita way through the cosily ahrubbery, while the equad of mounted police which had headed the parade, dazed for a moment by tbe unexpected move, charged reck lessly into the mob's midst. Coxey was confronted by the police as he took his hat to apeak on the capi tol steps. His constitutional rights be ing retuaed, be thruat upon them a printed protest, which proved to be a well-worded epitome of Populiet doc trinea. Meanwhile Carl Browne was being dragged by the collar of his coat through the orowd to the nearest station, after he had made a tight to retain his ban ner. Two police captains, a lieutenant and a sergeant thruat the mild-mannered Coxey without violence back across eev eral feet of humanity to his carriage. Mounted police were forcing their horses among the people, eeveral of them crack ing their clubs over the heads of the nearest persons. Women were shriek ing iv tenor; men were yelling fiercely; some were being knocked down and trampled upon. For five minutee there waa riot in that section of the mob in front of the east steps, which occupied about an acre of the asphalt. Then the two agitating spirits having been removed and half a dozen particularly belligerent men hav ing been taken in by the police, the dis turbance waa quelled without serious injuries to a siugle person. Somehow the army was started off toward Un new camp between double lines of police, followed by a mob of thousands cheering like demons for Coxey and Browne. Within an hour tbe capitol grounda had almost regained their normal quiet, with only a few Hun dred people strolling around. General Coxey accepted the situation philosophically. Hia army waa put to work clearing up tbe new camping ground for occupancy, while Coxey drove over to the ofhcee of the district commissioner with an eye to business. He made application of them for tbe necessary license to charge admission to hiß camp. The commissioners desired to consider the proposition, so acting upon tbeir suggestion, Mr. Coxey went totheolerk, and by paying |5 aecured a license for one day only. "I have no complaint," aaid Coxey, "to make aa far aa the police are con cerned. They treated me witb great consideration, for they had to carry out the law, even if it waa an unjust one. My apeech making, however, at the cap itol ia over, and 1 shall not again at tempt it. It would be ef no nae. The
