Major Holbrook Announces Guards in Strike District of Colorado Must Sur render Guns and Urges Strikers to Follow

ASSOCIATED PRESS p1spATcH1

TRINIDAD, May GA program Of
 disarmament of the contending fac tions in the Southern Colorado strike
 zone practically was announced by
 Major Holbrook in behalf of Col onel Lockett, commanding the Unit ed States troops in the district. The
 mine company officials were notified that the disarming of their guards will begin tomorrow, and they re- piled their men are ready to surren- der their arms as soon as they have received actual physical protection by the presence of federal troops.
 Accordingly, attachments have been placed at Aguilar, Hastings. De L.agua, Tabasco, Berwind and Forbes
 in Las Animas county, and arrange
 ments made for the dispatch of
 troops to other mine properties
 throughout the state.
 When the guns have been secured
 from the guards, the commanding
 officers will issue a proclamation
 calling upon the individual strikers.
 and citizens of Trinidad to deliver
 their weapons. Then the police and
 county officers will be disarmed. leaving no weapons in the posses sion of persons not in the direct service of the United States. William Diamond, a union leader, speaking to mass meeting of strikers at Starkville, attended by 300. declared a shipment of 300 high power rifles and 60,000 rounds Of ammunition enroute from New York to the United Mine Workers of
 America will be turned over to the federal troops upon the arrival Of the consignment
 The strikers themselves, neither at StarkVille nor at the San Rafael camp, where a mass meeting of 200 strikers also was held, gave any in dication of their intentions to give up their arms.
 Major Holbrook who addressed both meetings, declared plainly it is his belief that the strikers already had concealed some of their wea rons. and called upon them as true citizens to procure them and bring
 them later to a place to be indi- cated as a depository for them.
