time an employe of the city. This
evening Hamilton appeared at the union
depot wearing the blsss buttons and
uniform of a railway mail agent. He
stepped Loldly up to a truck that was
standing under the depot sheds, loaded
with mail sacks, and pulled down a
letter pouch, throwing it across his
arm and stepping into a waiting room.
There he placed the pouch under an
overcoat that hung upon his arm and
walked out into the street. He would
have escaped but for Frank White, a
turf follower, whom he had known in
Denver, and whom he had taken into
his confidence. White quickly mott
fled the officers, and a short time after.

hotel. He had cut open the sack and
was going through the letters which it
contained when the officers broke into

which threw dirt, rocks and men as far
as a hundred yards. The killed are:
Dennis Murphy. foreman; J. Ryan, j.
p. Limon, Jack Macdonald and Pat
Lacy. W. J. Kennedy, the contractor,
was standing close by and was found

buried SO deep under rocks and dirt
that they were not found till this
morning. Kennedy is in a serious con-
dition. All present were either killed
