POWDER TRUST EXPLODED.
An Unsuccessful Attempt to Run q
Combine In the narIy Days
OF Colorado.

INC big CONSERVATION OF the hlccp-
ing car companies In the Pullman
company may not strictly be called a
corner" but whether IL Is or not,
says the Denver Republican, men
tion of 1t was enough to call to the
mind Of an old-time Gilpin county
miner, John Meyer. now making his
home at Fort Wayne, Ind, an occasion
on which George NJ. Pullman made an
attempt to form a corner" In the
mining camp
1T was in the winter of 1868, when
we were showed In for weeks" said
Mr.. Meyer. "The last freighter that
attempted to reach Black Hawk was
stuck on Dory hill; the stages couldn't
get through, and we were as much
but of the world as though there was
not another settlement in Colorado.
l remember paying two dollars for a
dozen eggs and $50 sack for -four.
"But we took all that in a spirit Of
resignation, feeling that it was
through dispensation of Providence
over which we might growl but could
not change. All the miners were work
ing and taking out good pay, 10 wa
didn't mind putting up good price
for grub. But soon the supply Of blast
ing powder began to give out, until all
the dealers had sold what they had ex-
cept Pullman. He held on to his stock
until all others were out. Then he
began to make 1t known that he had
a big stock, but that the price would
be $25 keg. The previous price was
ten dollars.
''The miners must have powder, but
we did not feel that we could pay his
price. A committee from meeting
that we held Gale on Pullman, tell
ing him we would ply s15 for the pow
der, but no more. His answer was
that we would pay his price or we
would not get the goods
"Now, that sounded too much like
threat to pass unnoticed. The com
mittee had no more than reported
their interview with the dealer when
there was stir among the men at the
meeting. Hardly a word was spoken
still everyone knew what was to be
done. Everything was orderly enough.
What I mean, there was no show Of
the kind that is usual with mobs, al
though we were as much mob as
any that ever attacked jail.
1--WE gathered crowbars and picks
and such tools as might prove handy
and started quietly toward Pullman's
store. 1t was situated about at the
head Of the road between Central City
and Black Hawk, at what they call
Mountain City. We didn't have any
trouble in making On entrance to the
room in which the powder WAS stored.
Teams were brought out and the pow
der loaded and carted away, when an
equitable distribution among the
miners of the powder was made. A
record was kept of the amount that
each man received. Then we paid him
S12.5O a can, just half the amount he
asked.
~For long time Pullman refused
to accept the price that we offered for
it, but finally he thought better Of
the proposition and was glad 70 accept
our price.
IL wish that could remember the
names of the men that formed that
mob. Many of them have since be-
come prominent In state and national
affairs and in finances"
