LEADvILLE, Col, Sept. 22.-Five dead
bodies lying at the morgue and half a
dozen wounded, with damage to prop.
erty to the amount of S25, 900. are the
visible effects of Sunday nights law
lessness. 1t is believed that when all
is known the list of dead and injured
will considerably exceed these figures
Everything is quiet now. the camp be-
ing practically under military rule.
The fifth name was added to the death
list at six o'clock yesterday evening
by the discovery of the body of Michael
Dougherty on the ground near the
Emmett mine. where he fell in the
attack OF the rioters upon the Emmett
while flushed with their victory at the
Coronado, There We're many people in
upper windows and on house roofs
provided with night glasses, who in
the brilliant moonlight saw the attack
on the Emmett and the repulse of the
rioters. These say that the first vol
ley from the mine was delivered at
close range, and that the attacking
party fell like grain before the sickle.
How many met the fate of Dougherty
it may remain for time and search of a
long abandoned shaft in that vicinity
to tell. 1t now seems that the rioters
dragged away their dead and wounded.
The story of the defense of the En-
nett is a thrilling one. Easily accessi-
BILE and surrounded only by light
board fence, it seems wonderful that it
was not quickly overwhelmed. its men
slain and buildings demolished. But
the Is buckshot found in Dougherty's
body, and the story of the fearful eff
feet of the first volley from the mine
tells how quickly the rioters lost relish
for the bloody business. Had this
mine been blown up. the great pumps
which are in the drain and many other
mines would have been destroyed and
the ensuing damage unreasonable.
Yesterday mornings riot, and par
ticularly the attack on the fire depart
ment, has destroyed much OF public
sympathy for the strikers, and this
fact was evidenced at largely attend
ed meeting of representative citizens
this afternoon. Their proceedings
were secret, but it is understood that
stringent measures were decided upon.
Two companies of state militia from
Pueblo and Cripple Creek, all under
command of Col. Mccoy, arrived at
4:5O yesterday afternoon and are now
on duty. Gen. Brooks and several
other companies arrived during the
night.
The damage at the Coronado by the
burning of the oil tanks, boiler house
and machinery is now estimated at
S25 900, on which is So, 500 insurance.
The houses burned were valued at 3d.
600, with no insurance.
Despite the presence of troops and
the unusual quietness of the streets,
there is a very uneasy feeling prev
alent. it being asserted that there are
500 Winchester rifles in the hands of
the strikers, whose repeated threats
against the militia are recalled with
alarm. 1t is the general belief, how
ever. that there will be no further
trouble, unless the managers begin
importing miners.
Banks here are closed. The Coro-
uduO luluc dTc lidSS Ol
smoking embers. Citizens gather on
the street and talk of the wild scenes
of Sunday night.
1t is generally believed that the men
who used dynamite and set fire to the
Coronado shafthouse and attacked the
Emmett mine have fed to the noun
tains and will be seen here no more
They are said to be miners from the
C9ur d'Alene country, who We're en-
gagged in the riots there several years
ago.
It looks now as if the backbo of
the strike has been broken by the riot
ing, and the demonstration of yester-
day morning was the final outbreak of
the lawless element. The troops sent
here yesterday from Denver and other
points will probably return home, hav--
ing received ample assurance of sup
port from the vast majority of the peo-
pie of the place and vicinity. 1t is be-
lieved that all but the ringleaders of
the strike will return to work in a day
or two.

Half Million Dollars.
HARRISBURG. Pa, sept. 22.-Gov.
Hastings has signed the recommends
ton for pardon for John Bardsley,

July 2, 1891, Bardsley was sentenced
to Is years in the penitentiarv for mis-
appropriating over $500. 600 of city and
state moneys, while occupying his
official position. The governor gives
no reason for his action, although it is
thought his decision was FASTENED by
the fact that Bardsley was stricken
