Idle Men Infiamed by the Lynching OF
Arrata-Riots and Robberies Not Inn
probable.
DENVER, July aS-The lynching OF
the Italian, Arrata, Wednesday night,
has shown the immense crowd of idle
workmen at present in Denver what
can be accomplished by violence, and
there is dread among many citizens
that riot of enormous size, having
for its purpose the looting of the city,
may break out at any time The
thousands of unemployed workmen al
ready here are being augmented daily
by others from throughout the state
who are gradually working their way
to Denver.
The county, city and numerous char
ity organizations are doing their ut
most to feed and shelter the great army
of penniless people. but they are incap-
able of meeting the demands. The banks
of the city have called upon the gov
eminent troops at Fort Logan, of which
there are 700. to be ready to pro-
tect their institutions in case of an out
break. The banks are United States
repositories and have right to ask
government protection. The unem-
ployed members of the state militia and
the Chaffee Light artillery are under
arms at the armory awaiting develop
ments.
Mayor Van Horn has issued proc
lamation requesting all good citizens
not to congregate on the streets, as it
may lead to an outbreak. Yesterday
afternoon a large number of idle men
attempted to board a train at Fortieth
street, but were repulsed by the train
men

Pueblo. Col, Visited by 8 Disastrous
Cloudburst - Destruction to Life and
Property.
PUEBLO, Col, July 29.-Terri6c thun-
derstorms and cloudbursts prevailed in
this state last night In this city the
Arkansas river suddenly rose IL feet at
midnight All the Easements from the
river north to Third street and south
to the viaduct are flooded to the cell
ing and inches of water is standing
on the first floors. Bye o'clock this
morning the water had subsidized from
the first floors, but pumps will be need
ed to clear the Easements
The damage to stock, boilers. etc, in
the Central block is about $40, 900: Nc
Cord, Bradden & Co., groceries, lose
s10, 600: Gam building. clothing. "a, 900.
Fifty others sustain losses ranging from
500 to 5000.
The storm was general From north
ern points, lying from Salida down to
Pueblo, reports of damage are being
received and fears are entertained for
men who have been out in the storm.
It is known that large numbers of men
from the mining camps who are with
out means and walking to the valley
were camping along the river. Some
doubts are expressed as to whether all
these people got away from the food.
All trains are delayed, bridges being
washed away in all directions.
Dead bodies of cattle. horses, dogs
and other domestic animals floating
down the river passed the city, as did a
great deal of household furniture,
showing that the food must have done
great damage to ranchmen up the val
lev.
Later-It is known that an immi-
grant, his wife and five children were
camped in a tent in the Fountain bot
toms, and that they were drowned by
the rushing wall of water which tore
down the bed of the brook, carrying all
before it The corpses of two men
were seen floating down the Arkansas,
but the river was so turbid it was inn
possible to stop them A number of
persons are reported missing by their
relatives and friends. and is altogether
likely when the water subsidies suffic-
ientIy to permit careful search the
bodies of many will be discovered in
the ruins of their homes.

ST. JOSEPH. Mo-, July 2s.-James
Mack. box-car tourist, had a terrible
struggle for his life in moving train
on the Hannibal road early yesterday
morning. Mack is a molder by trade,
and left Chicago short time ago and
came here hunting work. Failing to find
employment, and his money running
low. he boarded a Hannibal freight
east-bound- Shortly after he stepped
into the car two boys and a tramp
climbed in After the train was in mo-
ton the tramp heard Mack rafting
some silver in his pocket and attacked
him with knife. A desperate fight in
the dark ensued. The tramp used his
knife vigorously, and when the train
stopped at the little station of Hemple
the two boys aroused the inhabitants
and trainmen with their screams, and
Mack was rescued. He was literally
chopped to pieces. There were sixteen
ugly wounds in his body. but he is yet
alive, though in very critical condi-
ton
