WYOMING'S WOES.
Arguing for a Change of Venue
for the Trial of the Invaders.
johnson County Offers 100000 FOR Expenses
of The Trial-It Will Go to Cheyenne
or Stay at Laramie

LARAMIE, Wyo., July Especial tele-
gram to THE HERALD. The second day in
the hearing for @ change of venue for the
johnson county invaders brought out some
cold blooded Facts. Two ex-mayors, a
prominent physician and police captain
of this city were the main Witnesses and
testified in behalf Of the defense, which
objects to Laramie as the trial town. They
said that they had heard no less than Eve
hundred citizens, eligible to jury service,
declared that the prisoners should be
hanged without any ceremony and
CONDEMNED TO HADEs.
Much prejudice is held against the men
who came from Texas to kill rustlers at S.
day and found.
All the evidence so far is OF nature to
Indicate that the white caps are mercilessly
hated here and that the killing of Rae and
Champion is regarded as q CRIME without
any palliatlon whatever.
The prosecution will tomorrow have wit
nesses who will say that a fair trial of the
great case can be had here. Judge Ballard,
who prosecuted the Millington's al Den

to Judge Van Devanter, the ex-chief JUS
tice of Wyoming, is the legal figure. These
two will battle as to whether or no the
case goes to Cheyenne for final determine
ton. Already the venirie fight has mar
rowed down to this issue.
BY an agreement between the lawyers
one of the four counties on the Union Pa
cifc will be the trial district. Johnson
county, in which the war occurred, will de-
pasit 500, 600 for expenses.
THE PRISONERS
are guarded by eleven men. They are ina
large fiat right in the center of town. The
local leader of the Peoples party says that
their presence poison's the atmosphere and
proposes TO call an indignation meeting and
take steps to have the men removed TO the
state penitentiary across the river.
During court hours many Of the men
lounge about the grounds OF the county
building. Major Wolcott spends most Of
his time in writing and several of them
read.
Grandpa Whitcomb is suffering with an
eye trouble. The Texas KID announces
his intention of writing book.

STORY OF THE BATTLE
Between the Pinkerton Thugs and American
wOrkmen.

Between the Pinkerton Thugs and American
W0rkmen.
The following is the story OF the battle
and its antecedents. Early this morning
300 Pinkerton detectives arrived in Pitts
burg from the east and marched quietly to
Monongahela, where they boarded barges
and started for the Homestead works
towed by the steam tug Tide. At 2:15 thi g
morning the locked out employees were
notified Of this move, and when the barges
arrived at Homestead
FIVE THOUSAND PEOPLE
including men, women and children, were
waiting to meet them. AS soon as the
Pinkertons attempted TO land they were
warned of by the men, and the battle fol-
lowed. The Pinkertons were armed with
Winchester rifles and the opposing crowd
chiefly with revolvers.
THE PINKERToNs OPENED FIRE
and at the first volley two workingmen fell.
This enraged the crowd and they bore
down on the Pinkertons with resIstless
force. The Pinkertons fell back but con-
tinued firing, and finally the crowd on the
bank retreated and climbed over heap of
rubbish toward the big trestle leading to
the Penicky railroad bridge. Three hun
dred armed workmen, however, stood their
ground and g desultory firing kept up.
Finally, they, too, were compelled to fall
back before the withering ire of the Win
chesters.
THE FIRST SHOT CAME FROM THE BARGE.
The first man to fall was Martin Merry.
q heater in one of the mills. He was shot
in the side and fell face forward A big
Hungarian standing beside him stood over
and was in the act of raising the PROSTATE
body when he, TOO, was struck by bullet
and fell beside his comrade. Others rushed
TO the spot and picked up the bodies and
carried them behind the trestle. One of
the rescuers, a Welshman, name unknown.
was wounded i'll the log. Merry and the
Hungarian were taken to q physician's
Office, who examined their wounds and said
both would probably die.

The day was just breaking when the
lights of the steamer with it's barRes on
either side, flashed through the gray vapor
over the waters before the eyes OF the
people on the bank. The crowd rae pell

high fence which surrounds the works the

While up in Payette the other day
it was noticed that there are remark
able changes for the better con-
stantly taking place in that town.
One grand emblem of the progressive
spirit that has been developing up
there is in the neat, broad and
substantial sidewalks which the city
council has had put down in all
directions. One thing that may be
significant or not, as you may look
at it, is that all the thrift, prosperity,
fine buildings and general improve
ment in Payette has made its APP
pearance since the advent of live
and energetic newspaper. We. said a
short time ago that live newspaper
could not be published in a dead town.
Payette is live town and in con-
sequence is blessed with live news
paper. In fact the Independent is g
little live-er (if we may be allowed the
expression) than Bro. Venable's
actual patronage justifes. 1t is one
of the staunchest journalistic crafts
afoat in the state, and if the people
of that town don't appreciate it fully
and give it all the support they car
possibly stand, then they ought to b.
doomed to go back to tie same con
ditlons and circumstances whicl
surrounded them prior to the tim
when they could boast of paper.

AS a result of the Independents ar
