The Colorado Central railroad ex-
tends from Denverto Black Hawk, with
a branch running north along the base
of the mountains from Golden, 20 miles
west of Denver, to Boulder and Long
mont. The counties of Boulder, Jeffer-
son and Gilpin have aided in the con-
structiono of the road by liberal donations
of county bonds, and since the road was
first started, in 1870, up to sometime in
1876, the road was Differed and nan
aged by Colorado men, under the advice
of Union Pacific authorities, as the
principal stockholders of the former
road we're New England capitalists and
also heavily interested in the Union
Pacific. The Union Pacific people paid
little attention to the affairs of the
Colorado Central, which have always
been conducted in a manner which
called forth ridicule from men who
know something about railroads. The
employees have been poorly paid and
have never felt sure of being paid at all,
as the, finances of the company have
always been miserably managed, al
though those who ought to know assert
that it should have been made to more
than pay expenses.
In 1875, by some mysterious manipu-
lation, the road passed into the control
of the Kansas Pacific company, and
remained there until about two months
ago, when the Colorado stockholders
marched into the shops and depots,
boarded the engines, and took forcible
possession of the entire outfit, which
they have since retained and operated,
until Saturday last, when the case was
taken before Judge A. w. Stone, pre-
siding over the District court at Boul-
der, who granted the petition of F. L.
Ames and John R. Duff, trustees, (who
hold a mortgage for 81, 212, 600 on the
road) for the appointment of a receiver
for the road. D. H. Moffat, Jr., Of
Denver, was appointed receiver, giving
bonds of $4,000 This greatly in
censed the citizens of the counties own
ing stock in the road, and the Denver
papers stated that trouble was likely to
ensue.
The subjoined dispatch, received at
this Office yesterday, shows thatthe fears
were well-founded:
i "LoNeMoNT, Colo, Aug. 10.
About $50 this forenoon the outward
bound train from Denver on the Long
mont division of the Colorado Central
r. R., was was stopped between Coal
creek and Dawson stations by 25
masked men, who boarded the train
with cooked revolvers and took Judge
Stone away. Judge Stone was on his
way to Boulder to open court to finish
up some business concerning the APP
pointment of a receiver for the C. G. R.
r. Co..
The men who have thus outraged the
laws of the land also cut the telegraph
wires between Boulder and Denver,
but seem to have overlooked the fact
that there is a wire leading from Long
mont to this city, and thus their move
ments are known both here and at
Denver. The end is not yet.

The raid of the Indians on Spearfsh
City, last Sunday morning, occasioped
not a little excitement. Notwithstand-
ing the suddenness of the attack the
citizens were soon aware Of the situa-
ton and q volley from their gnns put
the red devils to fight. So endeth the
raid of the reds on Spearfsh City, July
30th.
The head of the Indian killed near
Crook City was brought into town, and
after being viewed by a number Of cit
liens, it was turned over to DIR. Schultz,
who on removing the brain found it to
weigh A onnces. When we remember
that Webster's brain weighed just "a
ounces we can rest assured that the
Indian killed the past week was one Of
no mean intellect. Certainly brain
enough, if developed. He was a young
brave, about 26 years of age.
During the past week Spearfish City
and valley, Crook City, and Centennial
have had calls from the Indians. At
spearfish four horses were stolen. At
the same time the Indians were in the
act Of stealing the horses, the town
company of Spearfish were having a
meeting pertaining to town matters.
The alarm being received, the citizens
started in pursuit, and those on horse
back followed until the Indians were
~overtaken, whom several rounds were
fired, but at last accounts nc harm was
done. During the week they succeeded
in running on between so and 40 head
of horses, besides Capt. Dods0n's herd
of beef cattle, some 400 head in num-
Der. After running the cattle some
distance, they killed the entire herd,
with the exception of one lame OK, and
jerked the meat, escaping with the same
before being overtaken by any parties
who started in pursuit.
