PLOT TO KILL GUARDS
MILITARY INQUIRY FAsTENs LA
vETA MURDERS ON MINER.
Major Boushton Reports That John
Flockhart, Union Man, Was Prime
lnstisator, by All Confessions.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Walsenburg. Colo.-John Flockhart,
a leader of the United Mine Work.
ers of America, instigated the La
Veta murders, in which three mine
guards and an automobile driver were
fired upon from ambush and killed by
party of strikers, Nov. S, according
to formal statement issued by Judge
Advocate Mai. E. ]. Boughton. The
statement was made following the ex.
animation Of three members OF the
party of strikers who have confessed
their part in the killings. The state.
mcnt of Major Boughton says:
The testimony adduced In the La
Veta killing investigation reveals that
the prime instigator of the murder
plot was one John Flockhart, accord.
ing to all confessions.
1T appears, according to the state.
ments of the prisoners, that Flockhart.
the union leader in charge of the
strikers in La Veta, put into execu.
ton, If he did not actually devise, the
plan to waylay and kill the men who
were murdered.
HE distributed the arms for so do
Ing and provided in advance a picket
line to turn back people from the
scene of the tragedy and cover the re.
treat Of the actual participants, whose
confessions are being made.
1T appears that the day after the
tragedy at La Veta and as soon as
the prisoners were apprehended by
the military authorities, Floclzhart fled
from the state, going to New Mexico"
The statement continues that all ef.
forts to locate Flockhart have thus
far failed. According to one report,
nc is In southern New Mexico, and an.
other says that he is in the vicinity
OF Dallas. Tex. "
The seven prisoners under arrest in
connection with the La Veta killings
have In substance reiterated the con.
fessions made public several weeks
ago by Maj. C. C. Townsend. All of
the evidence points to carefully laid
plot for the purpose Of wayiaying and
killing the party Of guards.
New evidence has been brought out,
particularly with reference to the
preparations that we're made for the
attack. The plans for the murders
were laid Immediately upon 1t beccm.
Ing known that the guards were leav.
Ing Oakdale for LIE Veta to rescue
Charles Gambler, and the plot was
carried out In every detail. ..-',
After the most strenuous day Of evi.
dence taking since the military com.
mission convened here, the La Veta
killing case was concluded and nine
men, six as principals and three as
accessories, were ordered held indef.
initely.
Those held as principals are:
