Monday saw tho departure of the deputies.
Immediately after breakfast had been dis
posed of orders were given for the tents and
provisions to be packed, and for a couple of
hours all was hurry and hustle. Exactly at
0 O'Clock the command to break camp was
given and the march for home began.
The cavalry started out over the Cheyenne
canon road to go direct to Colorado Springs,
while the footmcn marched out across Beaver
park and down the canon to Midland, where
q train had been ordered to be in waiting ior
them. They did not pass through any OF the
towns of the district.
When the retreat commenced it was appar-
ent that there would be no trouble. Genetal
Brooks had been assured by the miners that
no violence wculd occur, and he, in turn,
promised safety to the deputies. The miners
gathered Oh the hills to watch the cavalcade
pass along the road below, but there was
neither jeering nor cheering.
1t was barely 10 O'Clock when the last
member Of the posse had gone. leaving the
militia in supreme control of the great gold
camp.
About half Of the militia was released
from service ut Cripple Creek on the
14th and sent home. Those most anxious to
attend to their business were scnt home.
They were obliged to walk TO Colorado
Springs. The outgoing troops took with
them twenty-one prisoners, who were placed
in Jail at Colorado Springs.
Rumors were circulated Friday that several
miners had been warned out of the camp.
General Brooks says that all any man has to
do who has been interfered with In any Of his
lawful rights by union or non-union miners
is 10 report the fact to him, and he declared
in the most emphatic language that II he
could by any means in his power, learn the
name of the guilty party, he would arrest
him If it required the full strength OF the
National Guard to do so.

amount Of property man can devise
or leave to his heirs to 81, 600, 600, the
ovcrplus of his estate going to the

those in favor Of this bill that most

have been accumulated by illegal
means, such as stock gambling. trusts

have frequently to be defended by the
