WORKED IN MANCHESTER
Ross Wa, Employed As Team,tsr- Henry
Reed Not One OF 6ans.

Manchester, July 3l.-Albert II. Ross
Of Boston, the alleged burglar who
was accidentally shot by his compan.
ions at East Rupert Friday night was
employed here as teamster by Henry
Nido since early in May. When he
took the position he claimed TO be a
painter and that his residence was in
Sunderland. He performed his work
faithfully and was well liked by other
employees OF Nido. He told many
stories OF his career in the United
States navy.
He was last seen by his employer the
evening II July -, when he was paid
off, 1t is supposed that he fell in with
Reed and Brockway while drinking
and that he was persuaded to join the
gang. lie had no connection with pre-
vious crimes perpetrated by his COM
panions. II is claimed that reward
of $500 was recently offered for Ross
in Massachusetts. This cannot be
confirmed here.
There is no foundation in the report
that Henry Reed was in any way con-
nected with the gang. With Merritt
Reed and Ross was Daniel Brockway
of Sunderland. The man is half
witted character.

They had intended 90 enter the

thought better Of Il after sustaining a
bad fright while passing small
settlement near this place. There
they we're accosted 10y u young woman,
who demanded payment for poultry

them OF robbing the home OF Mr. You

declared that officers we're on their

The gang at once started to leave

ficer Mason and his deputies, and the
shooting aifay followed.
Several other witnesses gave testi-
mony of minor Importance, and the
inquest was adjourned, the finding to
be announced later.
On Saturday 1t appears that Daniel
Brockway and Merritt Reed, the man
who escaped after the shooting, and
the latter Of whom is still at large,
appeared in West Pawlet carrying the
stolen dress suit case, and tried hard
to sell gold ring for 81. They did
not explain where they got the article,
and nobody can explain why they were
not arrested. 1t is believed, however,
that knowing the desperate character
OF the men and that they were we'll |
armed, the local officers did not care |
to attempt their arrest. They remain
ed a short time, and when last seen |
were walking on the railroad track |

Yesterday afternoon Constable A.
C. Mason was notified by persons in |
Dandy that Brockway was in that
town. The officer left at once and re-
turned early last night with his man.
Merritt Reed, the other member of |
the gang, is still at large, but his ar
rest is regarded as only matter of
few days. Reed Is the man who shot
and killed Ross, and the officers are
very anxious to get their hands on him.
He Is armed with 30 caliber revolver
and it is feared that he will put up
desperate resistance when run down.

ling their ores and supplies, says Gen
Frank Hall in Tuesdays Denver Post
One OF them said to me last evening :
"The business has been largely increased
during the last sixty days, especially in
the northern division. The Gold Dirt
people having completed their mill, as
was quite fully set forth in last Fridays
Post. is now ready to make an exhaust
i've demonstration Of the efficacy Of the
cyanide process in the treatment OF
pyritic ores, or rather, the tailipgs from
such ores. Numerous tests already made
indicate that unless the copper contents
OF the ores exceeds 2 per cent, they can
be successfully cyanided and excellent
results obtained"
Mine operators all over the country are
watching for the outcome OF this very
important line of experimenting on
large scale. Only small tests have been
made heretofore, but now the mill OF 100
tons capacity will convey all its finely
crushed product to cyanide tanks for
final manipulation, 60 that the work will
be continuous.
alt seems to be already established"
said my Informant, "that 1t will effect
the desired saving of values, for the
works were planned especially to attain
that end. 1t will save in the first place,
the transportation charges on the tail
ipgs, Of which this property will produce
a large quantity. After the 10th of Au-
gust definite returns will begin to ap.
pear, and by Sept. l the management
will be able to announce what they have
schieved in that direction"
At American City, where two ex-
officers Of the United States navy are
operating the Mascot mipe, work is pro.
crossing very favorably. giving promise of
the correct solution Of these ores by an
electrical process, the character Of which
is not now explainable. Throughout the
district there are signs of great activity
All the we'll opened properties are being
operated Systematically, and the more
prominent are producing good deal Of
ore. With the railway completed this
district will undoubtedly surprise the
other portions Of the county with its
output of mineral. Decided improve
ment is manifest in all parts of the
northern district that is tributary to the
Moffat road.

Tuesday afternoon Coroner Asquith in
company with Jas. Hambly, Ii. P.
Davies, Benjamin P. Thomas, Thomas
Hooper, A. q. Day, Richard Brown, the
jury which had been impaneled to serve
at the inquest, and Sheriff Thomas Cody
left for the scene Of the wreck. The
jury looked over the track and ties and
got complete idea as far as possible OF
the extent Of the disaster. Wednesday
morning they viewed the body Of John
Ferguson at the morgue and then went
to the court house where testimony was
given by the trainmen who were on the
train when the wreck occurred.
Fireman Golightly was the first wit.
ness placed on the stand. According to
his version Of the wreck the catastrophe
was caused from the train being TOO
heavily loaded with ore. In relating the
manner in which the wreck occurred he
said the engineer, evidently seeing that
he was losing control OF the train about
three fourths OF a mile before he reached
the point where the engine left the track
applied 10 pounds OF air, reduced Is
pounds and then drove the air into the
emergency. When the train struck the
reverse curve it left the rails instantly
and plunged down the 20.foot embank-
ment. Golightly escaped with slight
facial bruises and was unable to state
how he happened to be so fortunate. He.
claims he did not attempt to jump and
remained on his side Of the cab until the
engine landed wheels up in the creek
He struck tho ground about three feet
from where the body OF the engineer
was found. The wreck occurred on the
steepest grade between Black Hawk and
Forks Creek, being three and one half
raise to the 100. Golightly did not con-
clude his evidence before noon and was
placed on the stand after o'clock.
Conductor r. e. Fishburn, OF Golden,
was the next to testify. He estimated
the gross weight Of the train to be 453
tons, containing fourteen loads and two
empties. The air was working properly
after leaving Black Hawk, which WAS
demonstrated by two stops being made.
Before the accident occurred and after
the train left Smith hill where a stop
was made for water, everything seemed
to be working satisfactorily, but he no.
ticed the train was going faster than it
should just before reaching curve. Be.
fore the accident he looked at the air
gauge in the caboose and noticed that
the engineer had twenty two or twenty

Conductor Fishburn and he with his
hands commenced to uncover the i'm
prisoned man. When he finally got him
out from beneath the heavy ore Davis
got up without the slightest injury. The
trainmen could hardly believe that he
was uninjured and made thorough
investigation OF his body, even compell-
irg the man to remove his shoes and
socks. However, there was no sign Of
injury about his anatomy anywhere, and
those who we're in doubt finally con.
cludeo that Davis was just as sound as
he was before the wreck occurred.
Superintendent c. E. Corson, who had
been in the city Monday inspecting the
tram line, was on the passenger train
which followed the freight about half
an hour behind. He took charge Of the
work Of clearing away the wreckage.
The passengers on outgoing and incom
ing trains were compelled to walk around
the wrecked cars and transfer to the
trains that could take them to this city
or to Denver. This was only done Mon
day afternoon as the track was cleared
by Tuesday morning SO that traffic was
resumed.
The ore and concentrates which we're
dumped on the ground were loaded into
cars and shipped to the points to which
they we're consigned. Some OF the ore
was from the Old Town mire and was
being sent to Idaho Springs, while the
rest was billed to the smelters at Argo.
According to Superintendent Corson
very little OF the ore will be lost as he
claimed it was possible to shovel almost
all that was dumped onto the ground
into cars.
The wreck Of Monday afternoon is
pronounced by men long 10 the service
OF the Colorado & Southern as being the
most disastrous in the history Of this
division. Various reports were circu.
lated as to the cause OF the catastrophe,
some claiming that the rails spread,
others that it was due to a washin, but
the railway officials claim unmistakably
that the wreck was caused from the
train running too fast and being unable
to make the curve at the rate OF speed at
which it was travelling. From what an
Observer representative saw Of the pile
up, having gone to the wreck shortly af-
ter it occurred the officials are about
correct 10 their statements as to the
train having been going too fast to re-
main on the rails at the point where the
engine jumped. At this point it was
noticed by numerous parties who went
to the scene Of the wreck that the out
side rail was worn to such an extent it
could not be regarded as safe for heavy
train going at a good rate Of speed to
pass over. The railway company evil
IDENTIFY noticed the defect IN the track
also, as new rail has been placed where
the old one was.

The Making Of Maps.

Large map-making firms have geo.
graphical libraries collected from
every source and in every language.
The modest sketch map CT the mission
airy in some wild degion is as highly
valued as the most complete survey
map. In making a new map OF any
important region the compilations
made by others are hardly ever
touched. Representatives a:e sent out,
and every detail is taken from its orig

paid enormous salaries. They are
never rushed, but are allowed to take
as long over their work as they think
it necessitates.
The cost of producing 4 map of the
