The Tragedy Occurred on Elkhorn
Creek, Kentucky. During a Raid

JACKSON, Ky. Jan. 2s.-The sharp
est fight in the history Of Kentucky
mo0nshining occurred Friday morning
between revenue party of five and
force of moonshiners on Elkhorn creek,
on the line between Pike and Knott
counties. Elkhorn creek is ten miles
from liindman and 30 miles from Jack
son. the nearest railway station, and this,
added to the fact that the entire posse
of deputy United States marshals was
captured, prevented the news from reach
ing revenue officials sooner. United
States Marshal James received official
notification of the fight from the revenue
officer at Hindman and will send "A
strong party of revenue officers into the
country to capture the outlaws.
The scene of the fight was where Rus
sell Wireman was killed in 1889 in u
conflict with mooIshiners. Deputy Mar
shal James IIollifeld. who led the posse
In the fight on Friday, was present in
that battle, and the SINNERS learned to
fear him. 1t is thought that deliberate
trap was laid for him and his party. The
posse consisted Of Hollifeld, Simon
Combs. Rufus Wooten. Ambrose Am
Sy
Simon Combs are dead, Wooten and
Amburgy received flesh wounds, and
Blaine Combs is held captive.
The moonshiners had evidently heen
informed Of the proposed raid The
still was situated ut the head of a blind
rayinc which ended in a rocky precipice
about 30 feet high. The operations We're
carried on in n half cave made by large
powders falling away from under the
cliff. The posse at daylight saw thin
stream of smoke well up from beneath
the cliff which told them that the out
laws were at work. They approached
the head Of the ravinc stealthily and
crawled to within so yards of the cave.
There wns u clear space to be crossed.
and the posse. with rifles levcled. started
toward the still OH The run. They were
greeted with shots from the rear and
from the top of the cliff, and at the first

Blaine Combs was tho only one to cross
the open space and get refuge under the
cliff. He maintained fire for nearly an
hour. when he was forced TO surrender
because his ammunition was gone. At
no time did the party see their assailants.
who kept well under cover, and Combs
could only fire ut the little clouds Of
smoke which went up every time Il moon
sinners rifle cracked.
1t is not known if any of the outlaws
was hit. The revenue officials at Hind
man were informed of the affair through
the Offices of II friendly mountaineer,
and the news of the battle which has
spread through the county has caused
great excitement. Many of the people
Of Knott and Pike counties are extreme
ly ignorant, and they fear a general
descent of revenue men from Lexington
and other centers comparatively near.
Some of the farmhouses are now desert
ed, the families taking refuge farther in
the mountains, as a battle is expected
when the outlaws meet the revenue force
which will be sent at once to the place.
