Colorado strikers VIII Yield to tho MIL
itis. but Would Have Fought Deputies.
CRIPPLE CREEK, Colo, June 7.-Therc
will be no battle between the fortified
union miners on Bull Hill and the army
of deputy sherifTs who are encamped on
Beaver creek, less than five miles from
Bull Hill, unless a trcacherous move is
made by one side or the other
Affairs were decidedly warlike until $
o'clock yesterday afternoon Although
the deputies cut all the telegraph wires
between this city and Midland the min
srs were quickly informed by their scouts
oil the advance of the sherif4 force, and
prepared for battle. They were willing to
submit to the militia, but declared they
would never be arrested until the troops
arrived.
Mayor Lindsay and President Parker
of the First National bank, callydup Sher
IN Bowers by telephone and begged him
to stop his deputies until the troops could
reach camp. Sheriff Bowers agreed to
this, and 80 is every reason to believe
SnAt there -. be no further hostilities.
Afek Mcintosh, representing the miners,
announced that they would lay down
their arms Immediately on tho arrival Of
she state troops. The deputies will fol
low the troops to the miners cRmp aud
serve warrants which they are said TO hold
for 200 strikers.
One of the grievances of the striking
coSl miners in Colorado has been the is
suance of scrip in payment for their work
which they have been forced to accept as
money and use at the company's store.
Governor Waite claims this Is n violation
OF the United States laws, and will ask
the federal authorities to make nm inyes-
agation. The attempt to induce the
miners in the northern part Of the state to
strike in sympathy with those in the
southern part has failed

around the works and the depots. Every
point is being watched by them, and
trouble will sur ely follow my attempt to
introduce new wOrkmen or deputies.
Some one came among the strikers
congregated about the tube works and
announced that some tube workers were
working ut the slack piles across the river
mad'rush was made by 700 or 500 men

the tipple of John Davitt it came down
before the onslaught within n few min

for new tipple being erected by John
Mcintyre, about mile above The NJ
lntyre tipple shared the same fate as the
Davitt.
Three barges OF coal were cut loose at
Melntyre's mine and fouted down the

And platform.
A striker named Lauterbach, who was
injured on Tuesday, died at the hospital
last night
After the destruction of these works the
mob started for Duquesne. When ii
reached that place il had increased to
5000 strikers and sympathizprs. With
yells they attacked the Duquesne Tube
works, drove all the men at work out of
the plant, drew the fires and ran the hot
metal from the furnaces out on the floors.
The reason the strikers give for their ac-
tions was that the works were using black
sheep coal. The assault was witnessed by
thousands of spectators thronging the
submits of surrounding hills.
As the strikers left the mill one of the
men threw plank in front of nm ap-
pronching freight train, nearly derailing
It. They left the mia on run and started
