s RO % I'HE OMAHA DALLY BEE: THURSDAY. MARCH 23 1682 e e —————————————————————————— DEADWOOD CULLINGS Deadwood Corrcspondonce Pioneer Prese, The process of mining, milling, amalgamating and refining gold and silver is protty thoroughly under stood, but to the outside world there is a good deal of ignorance concern ing the mode of transporting the treasure from the mills to the mints and markets of the cast. Particu larly is this so regarding the bullion output of the Black Hills —the third largest vold producing district in the United States—situated as the district is nearly 300 miles from any raiiroad, with the great Sioux reservation upon one side, and an uninhabited prairie on the other three. That the ship ment of large quantities of treasure across this dreary and unprotected waste is attended with danger must be obvious to all, and has been re- peatedly demonstrated, as will appear elow, during the past five years, At the present time there are two stage and express lines in operation be- tween this city and the railroads, one running to Pierre, the other to Sid- ney, and they carry the bulk of treas- ure, A few years ago the amount was about equally divided between them, but at the present time the Sidney company ENJOYS ALMOST A MONOPOLY in the business, which is found very lucrative, charges being, I believe, 1 per cent, of the gross amount. To arrive at a thurough understanding of tme traffio, your correspondent re- cently sought an interview with one of the messengers, a handsome, intel- ligent and exceedingly jolly person, wiw conversed freely, and from whom I athered the following fnformation: Tfia treasure coach is of the Concord pattern, but a veritable fort on wheels, the body being lined with half-inch chilled iron, and with no openings save port holes near the top on either side and ends, It weighs 1,800 pounds and is drawn by six horses, the best stock being held in readiness for it. Two trips are made each month—about the Br and 17th, a8 the mils may clean up,—and nothing is carried other than the mes- sengers, treasure, mails and express wmatter, no passengers being allowed to accompany it undor any consider- ation whatever. The shipment at the first of the mounth is always the most valuable by from §20,000 to $100,000, owing to the fact that the gold mills make only a partial clean up on the 16th—the plates only, reserving the batteries until the end of the month— and bank clearances are usually made at the beginning of each month, Shipments vary in value, the first ranging from $160,000 to $225,000, and the second from $200,000 to $350,000. When tho business was first established each eoach was sup- plied WITH A VERY HEAVY SAFE, into which all valuables were placed, but as road agents frequently demon- strated that such precaution was no additional protection, the extra weight was dispensed with, and the great bars of gold and bags of coin, ete., are now laced ‘‘under the seat,” as would the larmer arrange his truck destined for market. From Deadwood to Bidney, a distance of 285 miles of howling wilderness in which aesperadoes once ranged in large numbers, thus treas- ure is intrusted to the custoay of five men, who, for many reasons deserve the poor recognition herein manifested and very much more. Their names are Bcott Davis, Jesse Brown, William Sample, Boss Davis and John Coch- rane, It has been my good fortune to make the DOl’lOl’lll’ acquaintance of these boys whose appearance and de- meanor when not rigged for theirdan- gerous trips, indicate an occupation vastly different from that by wkich they earn their daily bread. "There is nothing that savors of borderism bravado, or a penchant for bluff, blus- ter and blood, about their attire or demeanor. On the coutrary their dress, conversation and every action is that of the perfect gentleman whose company is ever a delight; and such they are. Scott Davis, captain of the crew, receives a salary of $126 a month, the others $80 a month each, and “tound,” and their duties consist solely of making the two trips a month, Dressed, armed and equip- ped for a journey they CONSTITUTE A GUARD whose appearance is decidedly formid- able, and whose record irr many an ordeal attest the fact that it is a bad party to tackle. Each man is armed with two improved self-cocking re- volvers of largest calibre, a double- barreled shot-gun, and is supplied with 160 rounds of ammunition, while six improved Winchester rifles are conveniently placed within the coach. As a matter of precaution no regular hour or day is fixed for departure, but is quietly arranged on each trip so that the most dangerous localities along the road can be passed by day- light, These ‘‘bad spots” are all north of old Red Cloud ageney, the most dreaded being near Mufl'nru gnp and at Lame Johnnie cregk, where the road runs through a very broken and rocky country, aflording many fine places in which the stage could be ambushed, Over this particular relay or two, outriders are employed; that is, trusted, heavily armed and mounted men are sent in advance a few hundred yards to thoroughly re- connoitre before the coach is per- mitted to proceed, The outfit moves with great speed, the team of six great sleek horses dashing from sta- tion to atation on & dead run; the team changed in less than five min. utes; the run resumed, and thus the entire distance is covered, IN SEVERAL HOURS LESS TIME than is usually consumed by the regu. lar nger coach, In such manner di the past three years over $12,- 000,000 have been earried from . wood to Sidney, with ut the slights + loss whateyer or any inturraption ., road agents, although such gentry, a {hauouoq were nnmerous slonfi e road, and frequently ‘‘held u coaches, often two a night and withio an half hour of each other. Such a showing is indeed one in which the faithful messengers may well exult, and to which the compan, and the people of the hills point wl‘..’x no little pride as they read of the numerous -nd';dn‘ hul .‘5 m beries perpetral n the states du tiat same interval of time. ADVENTUKES WITH ROAD AGENTS, rience of treasure guards ways as smooth and pleas- sot as now, In 1877 and 1878 the company was running upon the Chey- enne road, one peculmrli adapted for highway robbery, and which was in- fested by a gang of as desperate out- laws as ever lived. - Blackburn and Wall were the leaders, and their com- panions were well known to the offi- cials throughout the west, but I can not recall their names. A number of them have long siuce gone over the range. Many of them are in the pen itentiary, and the remainder, finding it too warm for them in this locality — thanks to Sheriff Seth Bullock and the mesaengers—have sought new fields of operation. Their firat ex- ploit occarred in April, 1877, when they attempted to hold up an incom- ing passenger coech about four miles from this city. The vehicle, loaded with passengers, and in charge of driver Johnnio Slaughter, as bright a little fellow as ever lived, and a uni- versal favorite, was passing down Whitewood canon at a rapid rate, when from the darkness (the gloom was intense) sounded the summons, “Halt! driver stop!” Not compre- hending the situation, or unable to immediately stop his team, the order was not instantly obeyed, whereupon A VOLLEY WAS FIRED by unseen hands at the roadside, one charge of eleven buckshot passing through the clothing of passenger Walter Iler, who occupied a seat on the boot, and entering the driver’s left breast knocked him from his seat a corpse. Iler, stunned or frightened, also fell from the boot, and the team, released from control, dashed down the road at great lpemi. with its cargo of bewildered humanity, Quickly re- covering himself, and displaying rare presence of mind, Iler took after the coach, which being heavily loaded, made comparatively slow progress, the robbers meantime landinF volley after volley of lead, doubtless as a manifestation of chagrin at the escape of desired booty. After a hard chase Tler reached the coach, and as it went thundering down the dismal canyon, he succeeded in climbing over the rear boot and top of the coach to the driver’s seat, when, finding no reins within reach he, jeopardizing his life, reached the pole—how he could never tell—groped his way between the galloping horses, recovered the reins, remounted the coach and drove to this city without once having stopped the team. Ten minutes later hun- dreds of well mounted and WELL ARMED MEN wera on their way up the gulch. They found the corpse of the unfortunate driver lying where it fell by the road- side, and that was all. None other of the passengers were injured, with the exception of Iler who was slightly scratched. The following year brought a long series of stage robberies, con- ducted in the most daring manner, and culminating in what is known as the Canyon Springs robbery. It was Sep- tomfier, I'think, The treasure coach left Deadwood at 7 o'clock in the morning with Eugene Barnett, a noble and the battle began. down at first fire, which sent a bullet through his body, and, although he has no recollections of his doings, he crawled around the building to a rear window, through which he sent many a deadly messenger, until exhausted with loss of blood, he sank uncon- scious, in front continued, with great determ- ination upon the part of the robbers, who sent volley after volley against the iron sides of the coach, whlc% was well returned by Scett Davis and one companion, bnt another messenger, Smith by name, overcome with cow- ardice, crouched in the bottom of the vehiole and refused to make even a show of resistance. Poor Campbell received a fatal shot early in the fight. When mlizing:lut odds were against him, Scott coach door opposite from the stable and ran to a tree, from which position he made it decidedly warm for the freebooters, fellow, driver, and Messenger Gale Hill on the boot, Scott Davis and two or three other messengers whose names I cannot now recall, and a tel- egraph operator named Campbell oc- cupied seats on the inside o treas- ure--a very light load, worth 860,000 —wai contained in an iron safe on the inside of the coach. The coach reached Canyon S‘fflngu, thirty-five miles dis- tant, at 1 up to within twenty feet of the stable door and halted to chan, Hill, gun in hand, aligh the wheels, and, at the same instant, & comman “hold u around Hill saw no less than six rifle barrels protruding between the logs of the building and through the partly open doorway, and without further ado he opened fire, which brought . m., and, as usual, dashed horses. to block issued from the stable to your hands.” Glancing A VOLLEY IN RETURN, Hill went RADS'SHIP RAILWAY, - — His International SBubsidy Job, New York Tribune, March 18, Captain James B, Eads, who was at the Fifth Avenue hotel recently; in conversation with a Taibune reporter, spoke very confidently of the ruccess of his proposed ship railway across the isthmus. When asked if he thought congress would take any ac tion on the matter at this session, he replied: “‘Yes, I am confident that the bill ranting the aid I ask will be passed %t has been introduced 1in the sonate by Mr. Vest, and in the house by Mr. Buckner. I only ask a guarantee from the government when the feasi- bility of the protect has been tested. The first ten miles I offer to build without government aid, and when that work has been tested by the transportation of a vessel over it, then the government is to give a guarantee of £6,000,000 and 80 on, ns each sec- tion is built, the whole sum not to be guaranteed until the road is com pleted. The government will be paid back any money it advances, principal and interest,” P *‘What will be the cost of your road, a8 compnred with that of De Lessep’s canal?’ ““The cost of the railway will be $76,000,000, and it will only take four years to build it. The cost of In the meantime, the battle vis escaped by the the meantime Eugene (the driver), covered by a rifle, was held in his seat. Campbell, in the agonies of death, clambered or fell out of the coach, piteously appealing for mercy, and as he lay upon the ground he implored Fugene to bring him some water, but this the robkers forbade, and WITH LEVELED GUNS compelled Barnett to descend from his seat, and with him as a cover they ad- vanced upon Davis, who, umable to shoot without wounding his friend, was forced to retreat. Thus thecoach was captured. Upon returning to the stable Campbell was found dead, Hill missing and Smith lying prone in the coach, which latter, by direction of the robbers, was driven four miles off of the road, where Barnett and Smith were tied to a wheel, and the robbers proceeded to “reak open the sale, using a sledge brought for the pur- W. This was no difficult task, en the booty was placed in sacks, g::od on ponluu and with &i.n m]l;bon ppeared. Upon retreat avis made quick time to the nmutg.utiou and dispatohed a messenger fur Dead- wood, and by 8 o'clock at least fifty men were in pursuit. The chase that followed continued for many days, and the recovery of a portion of the treas: ure would mske a very interesting narrative, but altogether too for present production, I should add, however, that although shot through the body, brave Gale Hill, thaitks ‘o nkilled treatment, is still alive, and a respected citizen and official of Dead- woed. Smith has not been heard from but once since. He was filling the less warlike position of brakeman on the Union Pacific. V.V.V.

The railway will 1,200 miles nearer the United States than the canal, and it will escape all the effects of the deadly climate of the isthmus proper, where it rains six months in the year. M. De Lesseps would belie his record if he were not doing every- thing possible to forward the canal. At the same time I don’t think it will ever be built.” ‘‘1s there any probability of diplo- matic complications in case your ship railway is buil ‘‘None whatever. It will prove a solution of the whole political prob- lem grdwing out of the Clayton-Bul- wor treaty, and that alone is an im- portant point in its favor. It will be built on Mexican territory, My grant from Mexico allows me to secure the joint interest of any other nation in the road. Mexico gives 1,000,000 acres of land, freedom from taxation, ete. Ioffer to transport American shipping at one-half the cost of that of any othermation excepting Mexico. It is merely a question whether the road will be built in the interest of the commerce of the United States or that of some other country.” ““You expeet aid from abroad, then, in case it is not granted here? “Yes, and I will getit. I could had have had it before this. I will not wait longer for Congress to act than this session. In fact, if the commit- tee decides to report unfavorably,then Iinte. d to accept aid from England at once, which has been promised. I have here with me letters commend- ing the projeot from Nathaniel Bar- naby, chief constructor of the British navy, Sir Edward Reed, late chief constructor of the British navy, Wm. John, builder of the steamship City of Rome, Wm. Pearce, proprietor of the John Elder Works, and builder of the steamships Arizona, Elbe and Alaska, E. F. Lyster, chief enginee, of the Liyer dooh, John Fowler- builder of the Metropolitan Undert ground railway, and other eminelt lhi?-buildm and engineers.”’, “When will you begin work?” “If the bill should pass this session I will begin work very soon. If con- gress does not act, I will begin as soon as I have perfected my arrange- ments abroad, which will not be long. There are two routes proposed, one 140 miles and the other 1156 miles long, The later ends in Lake Superior on the Pacific coast, and would re- quire considerable work to perfect the harbor on the Pacific coast. Until fuller surveys have been completed, it will not be decided which route to build on. English capitalists have offered to construct the first ten miles which will be built to the satisfaction of the government before its guaran- tee becomes operative.” Referring to the Mississippi jetties, the reporter inquired if the result of his work there had been entirely satisfactory. ‘‘Yes, fully so. Atno time in the Iast two years and a half has there been less than thirty feet of water in the channel, The government en- ineers make examinations every few ya, and if they found less than thirty feet of water at any time my pay would be stopped by the govern- ment, False reports about the jetties are being constantly circulated by certain western papers, which have boen hostilo to the work from its 1n- ception There is not an honest, in- telligent journalist in the United States who does not know that the work at the jetties has been suceess- fully oomslemd.
