A DUEL WITH DYNAMITE.

A dispatch from Rico, Col, says: One
ofthe most desperate duels that ever
occurred was fought on Wednesday at
the Rico-Aspen mine, between the
forces of that company and the men OF
the Enterprise, who work the adjoining
property. There has not been the best
of feeling between the two forces since
former encounter three years ago,
when several were killed and number
wounded.
Both mines Wednesday had forces in
their tunnels, when blast broke
through the intervening wall and the
rivals were face to face.
Like furies they sprang at one an
other and began the fight with drills,
hammers and shovels. In the confined
space they found they could not do eff
fective work with such clumsy instru-
ments, and beyond few heads broken
there was no possibility of harm.
This did not suit the miners, who felt
deeply the interest of their en-
ployees. The foremen resorted to an
old trick which had given the victory
once before. The men were ordered
back on both sides.
Then with the natural weapon of the
miner they began duel to the death
that threatened to blow up the mine
and entomb the combatants in the de
bris. From shelter the men fred dyna
mite cartridges into the ranks of the
opposing forces wherever a head or
limb was exposed. The volleys were
rapid and fearful in their detonatiou,
hurling vast masses Of rock from the
roof and sides of the mine.
Two men of the Rico-Aspen were Sc
riously injured. One is said to have
had his shoulder blown off and the
other was retired with blindness and
several dislocations.
After the fight had ragged for an hour
the superintendents on the surface got
wind of the fight, hastily armed some
of their reliable men with rifles and
went to the place.
Their rifles served to make peace be-
tween the belligerents, and the rivals
were driven to the surface, leaving
guards at the disputed point.
The Rico-Aspen Company has a main
Office in Denver, and branch offices in
New York and Philadelphia. 1t owns
five mining claims, known as the Yes
tai Group, near Rico, directly south
and adjoining the Enterprise property.
The companies have been in the
courts for similar causes and the end
lines of the two corporations have been
constant subject Of dispute with the
men employed.
