CRIPPLE CREEKS CAR
Jim Marshall Ruled the Town
With Iron Hand.
HE Is DEPOsED FROM POWER VOW.

He Intimidated the had Nam and Pre-
served Admirable Order In tho Mining
Town, but Became Too Autocratic to
Suit the Politicians.
Jim Marshall has been deposei as tho
car of Cripple Creek. The city council
took the scepter Of chief of police from
him after q weeks Investigation of charges
which included everything from oppres-
sion to attempted murder. Yet the people
OF the town all say that Marshall was con-
victed before he went to trial and that tho
time spent in taking testimony was lost.
His dismissal had been decided upon be-
fore the charges had been preferred against
him.
The deposed chief was peculiarly fitted
for the position he occupied. and his eff
cheney has never been questioned, even by
his enemies. 1t has been the boast Of all
old timers here that Cripple Greek excels
In peace and quiet any camp that ever
sprung up in the west. Chief Badenoch
of Chicago, who visited mere last spring,
was amazed at the perfect order main
tanned by Chief Marshall and only half a
dozen policemen. The attorney who pros
ecuted Marshall, himself an old timer in
mining camps, oompiimented Marshall on
the department Of the place. No town in
the west of half tie population of Cripple
Creek is SO free from crime. OF course tho
social evil Is there, but hold ups, burglaries
and murders have seldom occurred, and
Fever during Chief Marshail's incum bency
has there been a street gun fight, and no
old time "bad man" has had the teinerity
to "get out and shoot up the town. +"
Marshall's famous declaration when he
first received his appointment about two
years ago probably had much to do with
keeping shooters and killers within limits
On one occasion q man with two big
gurs strapped on him had called for
fighting whisky" at one of the saloons
and hid stated openly that he intended to
fog" a prominent miner because of a
fancied wrong Of years standing The in
cident was reported to Marshall by a citi-
zen, and By the same messenger the would
be disturSer was cautioned to have his
gun in good working order, as tho chief
had decided to take hand in the shoot.
ing when it should start
Tell the fellow" the chief said to his
informant, that have been hired to do
all the shooting for Cripple Greek and l
don't propose to be beaten out of my job
by any piker who is willing to work for
glory"
The Jogging" was postponed, and dur
| ing Marshall's term only two murders
| were committed, ard beth of these were
by negroes. In each instance the muir
derer was arrested before he had gone
so yards from the scene of the killing.
Two safes only have been blown, and the
man who did the jobs is now in Jail.
Marshall's past life gave an excuse for
the charges made against him and his po-
itical attitude furnished au incentive. He
