The damage was done by union men and sympathizers from Canyon Creek, about twenty miles from Ward ner. This morning a mob of from 800 to 1,000 men all armed and many of them masked, seized a train at llurkei the head of Canyon Creek.

MARKET REPORTS Bal-llv- uu started with yells for the Bunker Hill and Sullivan mills and other buildings a third of a mile from the depot. They sent pickets ahead and one of these pickets fired a shot as a signal that the mill was abandoned. This was misunderstood by the main body of the mob, who imagined that the nonunion miners in the mills had fired on them, and they began firing on their own pickets. About 1,000 shots were thus exchanged between the rioters and their pickets, and Jack Smith, one of the pickets, formerly of British Columbia and a noted figure in drill contests, was shot dead. The fatal error was discovered after q few seconds' firing, and Smiths body was brought down from the hillside. By this time the strikers had taken possession of the Bunker Ilill and Sullivan mill, which they found deserted, the manager having directed his employees not to risk their lives by battling with the mob. Powder was called d boxes were for, and sixty carried from the depot to the mill. The heaviest charge was placed among the machinery of the mill. Another charge was placed under the brick office building. Other charges were placed around the mill. a frame Then the boarding-houswas Fuses fired. structure, leading to the charges were lighted, and the strikers, carrying the dead body of the picket, retired to a safe distance. At 3:30 p. m. the first blast went off. It shook the ground for miles, and buildings in Wardner, two miles away, trembled. At intervals of about thirty .seconds four other charges went off, the fifth being the largest, and completely demolished the milL The loss to the Bunker Ilill A Sullivan company is estimated from $250,-00- 0 to $300,000. In a few minutes the strikers went back to the station, the whistle was blown for stragglers, the mob soon climbed aboard, and at 3 o'clock, just three hours after its arrival, the train pulled out for Canyon Creek. During the fusilade from the guns of the mob, Jim Chayne, a Bunker Ilill & Sullivan millmun, was severely shot through the hips. It is reported that he was carried off by the strikers, and his wound is .probably fatal. J. J. Rogers, a stenographer in the employ of the company, was shot through the lip, but his wound is trivial. n men had warning of The the coming of the mob, and escaped to the hills.
