is tot believed that they would at
tempt this now. but rather turn to-

suit of a deep laid plot. The murder
ers evidently did not wish to kill or
injure any of the crew in charge OF
the train which the ill-fated miners
intended to take fol-. their homes IN
Victor and Cripple Creek. The train
started from Alta Vista, and picked
up the men on various four O'Clock
shifts who wished to return to their
homes When within seventy-hVe
feet of the depot at Independence the
engine whistle sounded as signal
for the men at the depot to get
ready to board and to warn any lag
CARDS to make haste if they wished
to catch the train.
This whistle was the death signal,
for no sooner had the shrill blast
sounded in the early morning still
ness than muffled roar was heard
and nearly two score of human be-
ings were hurled into eternity.
The explosion was a terrific one,
and the mountain tremb1ed as II
rocked by an earthquake. The de-
tonation was long and loud and could
be heard for miles about 1ndepen-
dence.

TIMELY ARRIVAL OF POLICEMEN
PROBABLY SAVED THE LIFE
OF HUGH McFADDEN.
A MOB OF FOUR HUNDRED WAS
ON THE POINT OF BATTER
ING IN A TEMPORARY REF
uGE OF THE MATE.

BUFFALO,, n. Y, June 6.-By the
timely arrival of Police Captain Not
ter and a squad of police at the West
Shore Ore docks late yesterday after
noon the life of first mate Hugh NC
Fadden of propeller John T. Hutchin-
son was probably saved The police
were called to suppress riot.
Strikers and sympathizers OF the
Masters and Pilots Association
swarmed about the house where NC
Fadden was temporarily lodged and
threatened to lynch the mate in case
they laid hands on him Fully four
hundred of the infuriated mob which
was increasing every moment, sur
rounded the house. The refusal Oh
the Lake Carriers officials to re-
lease the mate and the threats OF the
ships officers to shoot the first man
who set foot on the deck of the boat
only added to the flames and within
few moments more temporary ref
use of the mate might have been bat
tered in and the fugitive trampled to
death. Sergeant Mcdonald said: Il
never faced an angrier mob"
McFadden was finally escorted to
the boat by the police with drawn
club marching four abreast through
the center of the mob Three boats
left Buffalo yesterday and several ar
rived.

DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS coh'-
MiTTEE Up A sTUMs AS TO
WHAT TO DO.

WASHINGTON, June 3---Represei--
tative Cowherd. of Missouri, chair
man of the Democratic Congress Com
the committees campaign headquar-
tiers several weeks in advance of the
ST Louis convention he put the care
before the horse. Not only is the
committee unable even TO guess who
will be the Democratic standard bear
er. but it is at a loss to predict wha1.
kind of platform will be adopted
by the convention and what issues
are to be brought TO the front during
the campaign
Mr.. Cowherd SAYS the committee IS
receiving at its headquarters in Wash
incton a great number of applica-
tions for speeches on this and tha:
subject Of current political interest,
but especially on the tariff. He
thinks this is going to be another
campaign Of education like that of
1896 but is not sure whether free sl-
yer will be a plank in the platform
whether advanced tariff doctrines
will be expounded by the party's dec
laration of principles, or what atti-
s.
tude will be taken in regard to the
trusts and other matters.
Under the circumstances it is inn
