Battle at Bull Hill, Near Cripple Creek
Colo.-Over 900 Illinois Strikers Moving
| on Pana-Troops Out.
CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo, May 26-Eleven
| men killed, with a strong probability that
the number of dead will be increased when
all is known, is the record of the first day
| of trouble here, although real fighting has
| not vet begun, as the deputies are await
| ing re-enforcements before beginning act
| i've operations.
Eleven started to work in the Strong
mine on Battle mountain. Shortly after
ward a large party of strikers blew up
the shafthouse with powder, causing a loss
of $25, 900, and then dropped 100 pounds
of giant powder down the shaft, which was
also exploded, killing all the inmates.
Not more than 300 yards from the Strong
shafthouse Is men, who had been engaged
to go to work in the Independence mine,
were surrounded in their bunkhouse and
after long parley agreed to surrender
Each one was armed with a rifle and a
brace of revolvers. The arms are now in
the possession of the strikers.
Preparations For Battle.
1t is rumored that the strikers attacked
the Analee NINE overpowering the guards,
after which they blew up the shafthouse,
but the rumor has not been verified. When
the deputies are finally massed and the
two forces come together, a most desper-
ate battle will doubtless be fought.
The situation is one of the most painful
anxiety. Not few believe the town will
be smouldering mass by another sunset
if the strikers be not restrained. At Vic
tor, six miles away, where fully 1000 peo-
pie reside, reign of terror exists. With
hale IL Nf{ re- Of
the town all day long fully 5000 union
miners, armed with rifles, paraded up and
down the side of the hill. Occasionally a
detour into the village would be made and
people whom the miners thought to be OBJ
jectionable were ordered to leave the place.
The guards from Denver, upon arrival
at Victor, went into camp on neighbor-
ing hill. The strikers threw out picket
line, entirely surrounding them, but at a
distance that guarantees them safety from
the deputies rifles.
1t is said the strikers have planted I'M
der their breastworks on Bull hill a guam
tity of dynamite, with the intention of
blowing it up if it should be taken and &C.
cupied by the deputies. One of the largest
mine owners in Colorado Springs is au-
thority for the statement that the mine
owners have planted a ri1ed cannon on a
hill commanding the breastWorks, and
that it will be used to dislodge the strik
ers from that position.
All sorts of rumOrS concerning the do
ings at the Strong mines are afoat. One
is to the effect that the workmen were not
killed, having been warned off by masked
strikers. All telephone connection has been
broken, and it is feared that telegraph
wires will go next. The deputies from
Denver have withdrawn to a less exposed
position where they will await reinforce
mentS.
