and wired Chattanooga for assistance

Maj. Chandler and Sergeant Calvin
managed to escape, and made their way

boys were. Here Chandler refused to
tell the story of the aiftr unless paid
oy newspaper men. This accounts for
the delay in obtaining news. After
burning the stockadc, the miners turn
ed their attention towards Coal Creek
and general message was commenced
towards that point. With that point
captured, the miners will have given
the death blow to the lease system, and
strong effort will be made to take it.
