the mine.
Immediately two cars bearing
fourteen deputies swung up the road
from the mine.

leaped from their cars, carrying
rifles, riot guns, tear gas bombs and
revolvers. Rocks and stones were
hurled at the deputies. it was said.
The strikers scattered out along the
opposite side of the road.
Tear gas was hurled, but had little
effect. A deputy was struck by a
rock and fell to the ground.

said. 1t was followed by volley
Of gunf1re from the deputies. Sew
eral strikers fell, the rest began to
scatter and as the DEPUTIES charged,
the main body fled.
The dead miner, with bullet
wounds in the chest and abdomen.
