Excitement At High Pitch
(Continued from first page.)
At midnight last night a. special
train of five coaches drawn by a heavy
engine pulled in on the Florence and
Cripple Creek ‘siding near the tempor-
ary ‘bull pen" and the suppressed ex-
citement was suddenly raised to fever
heat. it was rumored and apparently
with some foundation that 12 or 15 of
the recognized leaders of the union
were to be turned over to Sheriff Bell
and that all other prisoners were to
be deported from the camp. As soon
as the train backed onto the siding,
Secretary C. C. Hamlin of the Mine
Owners’ Association; Sheriff Bell,May-
or French and Captain Moore, went In-
to conference at the military head-
quarters. ln about thirty minutes
Hamlin came out of his private room
and telephoned to the railroad officials
that the train would not be needed at
that time. When this information
went the rounds those who had been
expecting trouble gave a sigh of relief
and many went to their homes.
At a meeting of the Mine Owners'
Association. the Findlew dynamite as-
sassination was discussed. Deepest
indignation was expressed, and it was
the unianimous opinion that under no
circumstances should the murder es-
cape. Many of the members pledged
their individual support to run down
and punish the conspirators. and a
large reward will be offered by the as-
soclation.
The county commissioners and mine
companies will offer individual re-
wards. ‘
The local committee of the Western
Federation of Miners’ has authorized
the Associated Press to say that they
deplore the wholesale murder. The fol-
lowing is a statement given out by
them late last night.
"No men who deserve to live would
or could approve the awful deed. The
fiends who planned and carried out
the devilish crime should be detected
and punished to the full extent of the
law. The crime must be unearthed
and the perpetrators punished. The
committee and all local members of
the Western Federation of Miners are
ready and‘wllling to assist in uncover-
ing the guilty ones and will use every
endeavor to assist the authorities in
their efforts: and we herewith tender
the services of all our members. We
will also Join in offering a suitable re-
ward for the arrest and conviction or
the guilty persons."
