ONION MINERS REPORTED TO HAVE CONCEDED THEIR DEFEAT. ENDS THE WAR IN’ COLORADO CRIPPLE CREEK MINES RESUME OPERATIONS WITHOUT TROUBLE. (MPORTANT ARRESTS ARE MADE ANOTHER BIG BATCH OF UNION MEN WILL BE SENT OUT OF STATE. —— Denver, June 15.—“I think the war fs nearly over,” said Gov. Peabody yes- terday. “I have news from Gen. Bell that the Cripple Creek mines are open and running and there is comparative- ly little disaffection among the men. There is no yews of further trouble or any likelihood of any. I don’t know how many more men will be deported, or whether any will be. I have heard nothing on this point. “J learn from Capt. Bulkely Wells of Telluride that the union men there concede that their cause is lost, and that those of them who are acceptable to the mine owners are already at work again. One hundred and fifty capable men, whether union or non- union, have been invited to go to work, and this invitation will be speedily ac- cepted. “In Silverton and Ouray peace reigns. The troops have all been or- dered from Las Animas county, and only Maj. Hill remains to look after the closing up of the details of the campaign.” Peabody’s Caustic Reply. Gov. Peabody sent the following re- ply to a message he received from the industrial Council of Kansas City, condemning his action: “J, J. Huckett, Secretary Industrial Council, Kansas City, Mo.: The fact that your council indorses the assas- sins, train wrecking and dynamiting by the lawless element in the Cripple Creek district, but proves the neces- sity for my present action in suppress- ing all such from the soil of Colorado. Become wise before you attempt to teach. —James A. Peabody.” Cc. G. Kennison, president of the Miners’ Union No. 40 of Cripple Creek, was arrested yesterday afternoon by City Marshal Moors of Goldfield as he was going to the headquarters of the deported miners in this city. The charge against him is murder for al- leged participation in the blowing up of the Independence depot with dyna- mite. The sheriff’s office here has a num- ver of warrants for other men who are wanted at Cripple Creek. Important Arrest. Cripple Creek, June 14.—A number of arrests were made yesterday. The most important was that of Frank J. Hangs, attorney for the Western Fed- eration of Miners. The arrest was Or- dered by Gen. Bell. Mr. Hangs was prought from Victor to Cripple Creek and placed in the bull pen. Strict or- ders were given that he be not allowed to communicate with anybody. Gen. Bell said in connection with the arrest: “It was necessary for the peace, quiet and good of the County of ‘Teller and the State of Colorado.” The contemplated withdrawal of troops has called out a protest from the Citizens’ Alliance and Mine Own- ers’ association, and it is likely that Goy. Peabody will be asked to continue the soldiers in the field for an indefi- nite period. The citizens say that mar- tial law has had a salutary effect, and they fear if declared off at present many of the deported men will return. Saloons were permitted to reopen yes- terday. Forced to Leave Colorado. About 125 men are in the Dull pen at the present time. A list for deporta- tion has been made out to be present- ed to Gen. Bell. The total number sent out will be between fifty and sev- enty-five, if the list which has been prepared is not amended by Gen. Bell. ‘The destination of the new party to be deported is not officially announced. BOLIVIA IS PAID. five Million Dollars, Stipulated for in the Acre Treaty, Turned Over.
