AT VICTOR, COLO.
Several Thousand Men, Supporters
OF One Side or the Other, All Well
Armed, Parade the Streets, Hurting
Threats AT Their Opponenta-An
Out.

Victor, Colo, June 6.-Deadly
broke out in Victor this after
noon while a mass meeting was being
held to discuss the Independence
affair, Forty shots were fired into
crowd in the street.
r. MCGEE, Of Victor, was shot dead
and at least six persons were injur-
ed.
A pitched battle is looked for at
any moment. There are five thous-
and men on the streets, and union
men are arming themselves. They
are t%hronging the streets, making
threats.
Nearly all the mines in the region
had been closed by order of the Mine
Owners Association, and hundreds
|of miners fiocked into the town from
the surrounding hills. Fully 1900
supporters of the association gath
|ered about the armory at a mass
injecting. At the same time 1000
men, armed with all sorts of YEA
ions, were assembling on the vacant
lground at Victor venue and Fourth
lstreet, in response to a call for a un-
ion mass meeting. Most of these
were union men, who declared their
intention to resist to the death any
lattempt to run them put of the re-
lgion. City Marshal Michael O'Con-
nell, who had been refused admit
ltance to the mine owners headQuar-
tiers. hurriedly swore in several hun
dred citizens, most of them union
men, as deputy policemen.
After a conference with Sheriff
IBell/and a number of mine owners,
Mayor Frank D.. French removed
City Marshal O'Connell and dismissed
his deputies. Then followed the riot
ing in which MCGEE was killed. After
lrioting began Sheriff Bell ordered out
all the soldiers in the region. He
also appointed one hundred deputies.
Wholesale arrests of union men will
be made, it is said. All mine owners
|are carrying weapons.

Capt LemIy's Long Shore Duty.

Capt LemIy'S Long Shore Duty.
Commander S. w. B. Diehl succeeds
Capt. l.. A. Lemly as Judge advocate
general of the navy. Cant. Iemlv is
a native Of Salem. N. c.. and will be
remembered as the chief defender Of
Admiral Sampson in the INVESTIGATION
demanded bv admiral Schlev yer the
question Of the command in the San
tiago sea fight. The Schley sympathiz-
ing cartoonists, at the time. represent
ed Lemly as being annexed to a ire
mendous bay window. Now it is said
that Capt. Lemly has been on easy
shore duty for II years, an unusually
long period. The naval men who are
jealous-and the navy is honeycombed
with jealousy-say hat Lemly has had
a pull, and that is the reason he has
been off his sea legs 20 long. But
maybe there is another reason. During
the beef scandal investigation at
washington the landing Of the troops
near Santiago, Cuba, came up in some
way or other and a young lieute-
nant, who evidently had it in
for the naughty General Shafter, took
the stand. He told how the Span
iards occupied the harbor Of Santiago,
and of the difficulties in getting our
troops and supplies ashore, in the
heavy surf, in boats. lighters. ETC..
Being finally questioned as to how the
portly General Shafter got ashore he
said that he wasn't sure but he thought
he was hoisted over with a derrick.
1t occurs to us that perhaps Capt.
Lemly has enjoyed shore duty so long
because. from the way he is built. he
could not be got aboard a ship with
out the aid of a derrick.-ASheville
