REIGN OF TERROR IN COLORADO An Infernal Machine it Exploded in Cripple Creek District, a Number of Non-Unio- n Street Riot Occurs A concealed assassin, by merely pulling a wire, exploded an infernal machine, thereby instantly killing eleven men and severely wounding nine others, one of whom has since died, at Independence, Colo., Monday. Most of the killed and injured wer miners employed on the night shift of the Findley mine. The men had quit work at 2 a. m. and were waiting to board the suburban train on the Florence ft Cripple Creek railroad and return to their homes in Cripple Creek and Victor. Just after the engineer of the approaching train blew his whistle as a signal to the miners, according to custom, a terrific explosion occurred underneath the depot platform on and near which twenty-simen were gathered. The platform was blown into splinters, the depot was wrecked and a hole twenty-sifeet in circumference and about as many feet in depth was torn in the ground. Fragments of bodies were hurled through space for several hundred feet and, later, were picked up still quivering. Some of the bodies dropped into the pit made by the explosion, but heads, hands, ears, legs, arms and trunks were strewn about on all sides. Pieces of flesh were found on buildings 600 feet away and everything within e radius of fifty feet. The force of the explosion was felt throughout the camp and the crash awakened everybody. The approach-- , tng train was stopped and the train crew were the first men to reach the cene of the disaster. They were Joined in a few minutes by hundreds of persons, and relief work was begun at once. crime was That the diabolical and deliberately carefully hatched perpetrated there is now not the shadow of a doubt Two or tbr hundred pounds of powder was exploded, probably by & revolver attached to the wire, which still remains leading out from the scene of the explosion. non-unio- n x x PEABOOY JNO.
