Federation of Miners, who arrived in
Denver today in crstody OF State
troops, after several weeks lncarcera-
ton at Telluride, where martial law
is in fo=ee, in consequence Of labor
troubles, was taken before the State
Supreme Court this afternoon under
the writ Of habeas corpus which had
been issued in his case. The Court
room was guarded by troops.
The return Of the writ, presented by
Attorney General Miller, set forth
that the petitioner, Meyer, is lawfully
restrained of his liberty, under and
pursuant to the express command OF
the Governor and commander in chief
of the military forces of the State of
Colorado. as militray necessity.
Gen. Bell's answer declared that
Meyer was an active participant IN
forming and keeping alive the insnr-
rection and rebellion in San Miguel
county, AID that it was necessary to
restrain him for some time to come.
The Court heard arguments on mo-
sion of the petitioner to be admitted
to bail pending a decision on the
question of the Courts Jurisdiction,
and took the matter under advise
ment..
Defying the detachment of cavalry
which brought Meyer, to appear be-
fore the Supreme Court, ". D.
Haywood, secretary treasurer OF the
Federation, attempted to hold a con-
versation with the prisoner, while he
was being taken from the train at the
union depot this morning. Ordered
to stand back by Capt. Bulkley Wells,
commanding the guard, be struck the
officer in the face. In second he was
surrounded by a Gordon Of angry
troopers, who struck at him with the
butts of their csrbines and beat him
wieh six-shooters. That ne was not
killed by the excited soldiers is due
to the action of Bert Givens, the
orderly OF Capt. Wells, who struck up
the muzzle of gun aimed at Hay
wood, and rescued him. from his posi-
ton between two cars, where the
guardsmen had cornered him.
Placed under arrest, he was put in
the middle..of hollow square of mill
tia men, and marched to the Oxford
Hotel, near the depot. Here he again
showed fight and he was beaten into
Submission. His injuries consist of a
deep cut on the left side of the head
and one on the right side of the head,
which almost severed the lower looe
of his right ear.
When a demand was made by Police
Capt. Lee for the release Of Haywood,
on the ground that military rule did
not extend to Denver, Gen. Bell re-
plied that he intended to hold Hay
wood as a military prisoner. and would
shoot anyone who attempted to take
him, but. nevertheless, under orders
from Governor Peabody, Haywood
was surrendered to Sheriff Armstrong
and placed in Jail.

A story comes from St. Petersburg
with the details of the suicide of
General Altvater, who has been acting
as n.ander-in-chief OF artillery. It
appears that some months ago the
service needed additional light field
pieces, and a number Of batteries
were secured from Russia. Altvater
was ordered to send these field pieces
to Manchuria; but believing that there
was no real danger in that quarter, he
sent them instead to Poland. A week
or two ago, General Kuropatkin ad-
vised the czar of his disappointment
in not finding certain field pieces upon
which he had been relying. The czar
sent for General Altvater who con-
fessed that he had disobeyed orders.
That afternoon, Altvater was dead,
having blown his brains out.
