AN UNLAWFUL ATTACK.
Jury So Characterizes the Wolcott-

Colorado Springs, Colo, Sept S.-The
coroner's jury in the case of Charles
F. Harris, killed Wednesday morning
in the fight between rival factions in
the silver Republican party over pos
session of the opera house, for the pur-
pose of holding a convention. late to-
night rendered its verdict, in which the
attack on the opera house by the anti
Teller men is characterized as :'unlaw-
full and the possession by the Teller fac
ton as legal" The jury finds that the
shots fired by the Teller men, who were
inside the building, were in the attempt
to defend their legal right TO occupy
the building" The verdict says that
the shot which killed Harris was fired
by persons unknown to the jurymen.
RIOTERS RELEASED.

the opera house have been released by

The coroner's jury, which is investi-
eating the murder, has taken a mass
of conflicting testimony and the only
point that has been established so far
is that Harris was a member of the
party that drove the Teller people out
of the opera house. Who fired the fatal
shot will probably never be ascertained.
as a great many shots were fired dur
