FIRST CRIPPLE CREEK
TRAIN 20 YEARS AGO

The following account OF the op-
ening OF the Florence and Cripple
Greek railroad between the Arkansas
valley and the Cripple Creek district
in 1894 appeared in the Victor Rec
ord a few days ago and will be OF
interest to Canon City and Flor
ence people:
Twenty years ago yesterday was
a busy day in Victor. for the first
passenger train over the Florence
and Cripple Creek railroad came into
the district. The railroad had been
completed clear through to Cripple
Creek and the regular passenger ser
vice was begun At first there were
but two trains day but in a short
time the service was increased and
as high as six trains were maintain
ed on regular schedule as well as
several freight trains.
The narrow gauge was the first
road into the district and naturally
tho first trains weregr eeted by iarge
crowds and there were many demon
strations. Before that. everything
had come into the district by wagon
and freighters were operating from
Midland. then the terminal OF tn,
Midland road and all supplies came
that way. The arrival OF the narrow
gauge threw all the freight traffic
to the other road and everything
came by way Of Florence The Mid
land road had about reached Gnlett.
which was the terminal point for sew
eral months. until the line could be
brought into Victor. and. later. to
Cripple Creek"

THE CASE IS
TAKEN UNDER
AMUSEMENT

kin at a special session Of the Ere
mont county district court at 10
O'Clock last Saturday night
took under advisement the mo-
tion to quash the indictments
against the twenty seven de-
PENDANTS accused of the killing of
William King. a non-union miner.
during the attack on the Victor Am
erican Fuel company's property at
Chandler on April 2s.
The motion to quash these indict-
ments on TIE ground that the grand
jury which returned them was i'm
properly organized was overruled by
Judge Lavender couple OF weeks
ago. whereupon petition was made TO
the court TO have them set aside on
account Of inherent defects in form
The second petition addressed itself
first TO the indictments rs a whole, and
next. Ia the different counts they
contained and both phases we're ar
gued before the court.
The defendants. most Of whom
have been In jail since the commits
sion OF the crime for which they were
arrested, are charged in the indict-
ments with four offenses. described
under as many different counts in
the Information. First. with murder:
second. with being accessory before
the fact: third. with being acces-
sorry in actually aiding. abettIng and
assisting in the enactment Of the
crime. and. fourth. with being an ac-
cessory after the fact In standing By
while IT was taking place and doing
nothing to prevent H.
Argument upon the question OF the
quashing Of these indictments was
begun before Judge Cavender NJ :
O'Clock Saturday afternoon and was
continued during the remainder OF
the day: afiording an opportunity fol
an exhaustive discussion OF the sub
ject. The principal contention of
counsel for the defendants was thai
there could be no joinure under the
laws Of Colorado Of a felony and a
misdemeanor in the same Indictment.
as was the case in this instance
and IL was around this proposition
that much Of the disputation between
attorneys took place i
Mr.. Hawkins, general counsel for
the United Nine Workers OF Ameri-
ca. who had the management OF ths
case for the defendants. attacked the
indictments. as well as the several
counts embodied In them. on the the
ory that they were not drawn by
the grand jury in accordance with
the statutes OF this state. or with the
form prescribed In the common law.
and were therefore. fatally defective.
II was pointed out by Mr.. Hawkins
from a certified copy of the indict-
ments. which he held in his hand.
that the adverb "wilfuliy- had been
left ont OF the text in drafting them
and he asserted that they were In
valid and of no avail SO far as the
charge of murder was concerned by
reason of the omission. Under the
theory OF the statutes he said. there
can be no murder unless the act OF
killing Is done ''wiifuliy" and with
malice aforthousht-
The matter of ruling on the vari-
Gus counts in the indictments were
taken under advisement by Judge Cav
ender and an opinion Will be handed
down by him in relation to them
some time after the 2oth OF this
month.

the state In these cases In the event
the several counts in the indict-
ments are dismissed by the court Is
