RAILWAY WAR
AT CRIPPLE CREEK

Denver. Nov. PA Cripple Creek
special to the News last night says:
The fight between the Denver &
Southwestern Railway Company. which
owns the Florence & Cripple Creek and
Midland Terminal. and the Colorado
Springs and Cripple Creek District
railway is certainly on again in ear
nest. If anybody thought that con-
soliaation or a traffic agreement had
been made between the two corpora
tious which control the business of the
camp their minds would have been dis
abused of the idea to-day in this city.
Under the blanket franchise Issued TO

right to run cars over any street IN

way better known as the Short Line.
attempted to lay rails up Fifth street
to Bennett avenue this morning.
About sixty graders from Colorado
Springs arrived here at that hour and
Immediately commenced work.
At O'Clock superintendent Waters
and A. i. Carlton of the Denver
Southwestern proceeded to Interfere
with the work of grading. Mr. Carl
ton, who Is president OF the First Ma
tlOuhl Bank anu a ntaN9 pACNhAAoANNA
in the Denver & Southwestern, took
charge of the work. Every ore team
owned by the Colorado Trading and
Transfer Company. every express wa
gon and carriage that could be hired in
town, as well as any man who was
willing to work for IS a day was EN-
ployed. The transfer teams were driven
up the street and the men who were
working the pick and shovel were com
PEELED to leave the right of way. At
one time there were no less than TWEEN
ty four horse teams, which blocked the
way from Myers to Bennett avenue.
Many of the teams had lost a wheel in
some unaccountable way and evidently
a monkey wrench was used loosening
the nut By $3.50 O'Clock an immense
crowd had, collected at the corner Of
Fifth and Myers.
Sheriff Robertson, accompanied by
half n dozen deputies, City Marshall j..
Knox Burton with the entire police
force, were there TO preserve order,
but there were half dozen little
fights. 1t loked for a while as though
there would be mix-up between the
contending forces.
temporary injunction was secured
by Mr.. Carlton against the Short Line
officials. which was issued by Judge
Seeds. and when this was read to Gen
eral Manager Smith of the Short Line
he quit work and called off his hun

Oakland. Cal. Nov 21.-Fire de
stroyed the ferry building at the Ala
media mole early this morning and
nine men who were asleep in the bunk
house narrowly escaped with their
lives. Forty-seven passenger coaches
were burned.
The fire started on the north side
of the building and almost two hours
later 1t had burned to the water $
edge. A portion of the floor, held up
evidently by the network of tracks,
still remains. and upon these tracks
are the warped and twisted iron work
of the passenger coaches which were
destroyed.
OF the forty-seven coaches that were
lost, sixteen were broad gauge and
thirty-one narrow gauge.
1t is estimated that the loss. includ-
ing coaches and buildings. will amount
to 100000
The building was erected in 1888 and
cost originally $4,000. Three years
later 1t passed into the hands of the

fiagration.
Other theories. however. are that

thrown by passenger on the last
train may have lain smouldering until
the oily woodwork burst into flames.
A theory that the blaze was of in
cendiary origin is not considered ser
iously by the railroad officials.

HITCH IN PANAMA
CANAL. NEGOTIATIONS

Washington, Nov. 2l.-The check in
the negotiations with Colombia ELLA
tive to the Panama canal has given
great encouragement to the friends of
the Nfcaraguan project, and the first
evidence of renewed activity on their
part was the appearance at the State
Department to-day of Senior Corea,
Nicaraguan minister to Washington.
Secretary Hay has several times
called the attention of the Colombian
government to tho fact that under sec
tion of the Sponer act. If he is unable
to obtain control of the necessary ter
siitory in Colombia by treaty, then he
is to obtain such territory from Costa
Rica and Nicaragua.
1t is now said TO be probable that to
emphasize his repeated declaration
that the action OF Congress in the
IIassage of the Spooner amendment did
not finally commit the United States
20 the acceptance of the Panama route,
Secretary Hay may proceed to draw
Up n treaty with Nicaragua end Costa
ltica and submit 1t TO the Senate, along
with such n treaty with Colombia as

way the Senate itself might decide
whether or not the Colombian treaty
is satisfactory. and If it should decide
in the negative. then it will have at
hand the Nicaraguan Costa Rican
treaties. SO that there will be no ex-
cuse for delay in the canal project.
AS for the Colombian negotiations, 1t
can be stated that the United States
has now gone to the practical end OF
the concessions it is willing to make
The Colombian minirter here has been
notified of the decision reached and is
expected to make further reply either
accepting or rejecting our last propo-
sition. One of the objections lodged
by Colombia is the difference over the

POWER COMPANIES
CONSOLIDATED

Pueblo. Colo. Nov. 20.-Consolida-
tion of the Pueblo Lighting and Trac-
tIon Company and the Pixies Peak
Power Company was effected to-day.
The capitalization of the new concern
is $3,500.000 and the directors for the
first year are NJ. d. Thatcher, John F.
Vnil, II. Z. Woods. T. Fl. Devine, F. NJ.
Woods and Warren Woods.
The deal is the outcome of negotia-
tions that have been in progress for
some time between the Woods Invest
ment Company of Colorado Springs
and Victor and the traction company
of this city. Articles of Incorporation
were filed in Denver to-day and with
the county clerk in this city. The
new concern will be known as the Pu-
eblo and Suburban Traction and
Lighting Company.
BY the amalgamation of the two
companies power will be furnished Tor
operating the street railway and light
ing the city from the big power plant
of the Pixies Peak Power Company at
Beaver Creek. thirty-five miles from
this city and few miles east of Vic
tor Surveyors and llnemen will be
put to work at once constructing a
line from Pueblo to Beaver Creek over
which to transmit the power and the
work OF improvement Degun some time
ago by the traction company will pro-
ceed.
One OF the principal difficulties en-
countered by the traction company
was a shortage of power. which could
not be overcome without large out
lay of capital. This will be done away
with by the transmission OF power
from Beaver Creek. the plant at this
place at present furnishing five towns
in the Cripple Creek district with
power and there is more than enough
in addition to supply the city OF Pu-
eblo.
The charter permits the new consol-
idation or the partnership company &c
operate In Otero and Fremont coun-
ties, showing that It. is designed to
greatly extend its operations up and
down the river.

Denver, Nov. 24.--An organization
similar to the molly Maguires," once
the terror of the Pennsylvania mining
district. is responsible for the killing
of Manager A. l.. Collins of the Snug
gler- Union mine In the Telluride min
ing district. according to the opinion
of William A. Pinkerton, the head of
the great detective agency which
bears his name. Mr. Pinkerton ar.
rived in Denver last night from Los
Angeles, California, and at the Brown
Palace hotel last evening discussed
the murder Mr.. Pinkerton is OF the
opinion that the murderer of Mr.. Col
Inns can be discovered and that sys-
tematic efforts will result In the ap-
prehension of the leaders of the or
ganization which is responsible for his
death.
81 have JUS come from the Pacific
coast and am therefore not entirely
familiar with the situation In Tellu-
ride" said Mr. Pinkerton, but am
satisfied that the killing of Mr. Col
Inns was dictated by an organization
similar to the Molly Maguires. who
caused the death OF go many men in
the Pennsylvania district in the '70s,
and which. when II was broken up,
resulted in twenty-three men being
hanged. and more than twice that
number being sent to the peniten.
