Timothy J. Tarsney was appointed ad-
jutant general of Colorado by Governor

John c. Tarsney of Missouri and ex- Con-
gresham Tar5ney of Michigan. Gen.
Tarsney was the personal re preventative
of the government during the police
board trouble. when the militia was Op-
posite the city hall. His undaunted
bearing at that time antagonized the
police and their sympathizers, and it was
freely stated that if shooting com
menced- he would be the first man to
fall.
In the earlier stages of the Cripple
Creek trouble he was legal adviser for
some of the miners and since the settle
ment of the strike has resumed his SER
vices in that capacity. While the mill
tia were in the field at Cripple Creek he
was again the direct representative of
the governor, through whom orders were
transmitted to Gen. Brooks.

posed once more to many of the men
aligned against him at the city hall. The

Officers GaithriRht, Harlan and Henry
arrived just as the coat of tar and feath-
ers was being put on. Officer Steve
Harlan was in advance. Two of the
masked men advanced to meet him and
commanded him to remain. on his horse
where he was The other officers were
stopped by other masked men.
A few minutes later Tarsney was left
lying on the ground, and the masked
men took to the hacks. They drove to
the Rock Island tracks and there dis
missed their drivers, not paying them
but simply saying: "Good night Johnny"
That was the last seen of the masked
men, and the drivers came on to the city.
Driver Crumley says that after the tar
and feathers had been applied Tarsney
told to move on out of Ell Paso
county, that he was not wanted either in
Cripple Creek or Colorado Springs, and
that if he ever showed up again he would
meet worse fate than dose of tar and
feathers.
There was a meeting of 25 deputy
sheriffs in Antlers' park at 10 o'clock
last night, and it is believed the plot
against Gen. Tarsney was hatched there.
The hack drivers. Sherman Crumley
and Jean Mckinney, have been arrested
and released on their own recOgnizance,
as they declare they do not know any of
the kidnappers and were forced at the
point of revolvers, to take the party to
Austin Bluff. Crumley, who owns both
hacks, say one man remained with
Tarsney Ostensibly to show him the way
back to the city. Some of the men
wanted to kill Tarsney but their leader
held them in check.
Tarsney thanked this man and shook
hands with him.

denounce the outrage
