DENVER, April n.-There is war be.

Adjutant General 5. NJ. Bell and Captain

they refused to bring c. II. Meyer into

all the soldiers under his command. Gov
ernor Peabody upholds his miIitiamen He
said tonight: We will not recognize the
writ of attachment and the military au-
thorities will not appear in court. Neither
will we give up Meyer We will claim
that the courts have no right 10 enjoin or
arrest the officers or members of the mill
tary while they are on duty. They are not
subject to attachment or injunction at this
time. If the District Court OF Ouray is TO
be allowed to interfere in the carrying out
of the plans of the military under martial
law, there is no reason why justice OF
the peace might not with equal author
ity intervene and render the military alb
solutely powerless and impotent. The court
made known its wishes in the matter and
we have stated our position. IL is now up
to the court TO make the next move in
the matter. What that Will be am unable
