DEs MONIES RIVER SETTLERS ARMED WITH
WINCHESTER RIFLES.
Des MOines, April 5.-A United States msrsna ana
posse Yesterday went to evict Blake, farmer, nom
the Litchheld lands, better known as tho Des MONIES
River lands. Bakes farm is In Hamilton county,
sixteen miles southeast from Webster City, near what
IS known among the settlers as Helps Hollow. When
the posse reached tho place they found that Blake
had moved his house across the road, entirely of the
Ldchfed tract Some of HIS machinery was stu ieft,
but this he was getting out Of the way as rapidly as
possible The officers did not molegt Blake, but
shortly after they arrived upon the scene pun OF
smoke, a rife crack and whZZing bullet told them
that the settlers had opened are. The shots came
from dense thickct OF hazel quarter Of mile away.
Probably forty shots fred but the Workmanship
was either poor the range was intentionally Wide,
for none Of the deputies was hurt Tho posse hah a
number Of writs but they were only armed with
revolvers they did not attempt TO serve them, but
retreated In good order There probably twenty
or thirty armed settlers in the timber. Marshal
Desmond will take the matter in charge I'm few days,
and win execute tho wrts die in the attempt Tho
settlers have been organizing all winter They have
what is known as the Rvor Land Settlers Union, and
are thoroughly disciplined and we'll prepared for
systematic action as the Ku Klux ever were They
arc armed with Winchester rifles and iDdulgc In target
shooting daily. They have sworn to resist all attempts
at eviction, and as tho United states marshals will
do their duty regardless OF consequences bloodshed
seems certain.
Last week a number II wrlts served.
The marshaS we're we'll armed and were ffe-
Quenty met by squads Of men armed with Win
chesers who ordered them TO desist and threatened
TO shoot them down like dogs they persisted in their
purpose. These men nearly always mountsa
on horses, and squads orcled round and round the
n&rshals, cursng ana threatening them, bat Ss thA'
time no shots were fired. The part OF Hamilton
County where the shooting occurred yesterday Is
covered with scraggy growth Of timber and thickets
IN plenty. In carly times 1t was common resort
for horsetheves, and even In later years they have,
t Is claimed made II a rendezvous. When the marshas
reached this neghborhoOd, the ryeranders seoroted
themselves In the timber and opened nro upon them.
After evcting Blake the marshals started 10 return
They had proceeded about throe-quartors OF q mile
across the Hollow when regular tusilade of bullets
rained about them Branches OF trees were cut of
and the situation looked serious for while, but tho
attack soon ceased. The maTshals concluded not to
20 ON with tho work until re-enfOrced.
