the governor had caded on Ceueral
McCook to preserve the peace, settled
all fear of a contest betwen the
militia and the police.
From 0 clock until long after dark
a dense mass of humanity was packed
in front of the city hall ami upon th
streets adjacent. Ou Fourteenth
street the First Regiment of the Colo
redo National Guard stood flanking
the chaff light artillery, consisting of
four galling guns, with caissons lilted
with solid shot, grape and cannisttr,
ami gatling ammunition. Their position
commanded Ibe entire front ot the
hall, and at one time the militia was

the arrival of Secretary Lorsnz with
message from the governor stayed the
attack.
ALMOST A BATTLK.
This was for a half hour's delay to
ermit another conference looking to
ward a peaceful settlement. From that
tim" on until the United -States troops
werecalled out the moat intense anxiety
prevailed All sorts of rumors floated
about The sheriff ist-ned an order to
arrest the militia aud take their arms
away. A friend of the deposed mem
bers ot the tire and police board
went out of the city hall to apply
for a warrant to arrest the governor
Ciumitte of the most influential
citiz'ns were arguing with the board,
with the militia, with the governor,
and with the police, but nothing was
scromplished. The governor declared
he would order the militia to fir upon
the city hall regardless of the crowd,
of spestators, and the polic board
within as solidly maintained their posi
tion to resist attack.
The police stood with guns in hand
ready to charge if necessary and Chief
of Police Stone said he would die be -for
he would surrsnd. r Meanwhile
business was suspended and the crowds
gathered on every corner and iipou the
tops of adjacent buildings
THE TKOCBXa'l URIOIN.
The history of this tr table dates back
some weeks and was delayed because
th" governor preferred to wait until

A bomb was exploded just inside
Ml the main door of the church of
lu the Midaleino. The report ot
the explosion wss so loud aud far
reeoblua that mimt people thought at
me lime that another explosion hnd
jicuried in the chamber of deputies,
but Ibis notion was quickly dispelled
by a rapid ipresd of accuraie informs
Hon hs to its locality.
When the bomb exploded the crowd
iu front aud in the vlciulty of the
church scattered in all direction psnla
stricken, but seeing no further danger
returned in great numbers hvery one
was trying to git lut-o the church and
the crowd ut literate, became so dense
that every passage way was lightly
blocked until the police sic-coded iu
forcing them back The pecuniary
damage to the chnrch is n ot large.
jgBEKD to'i.viit ritoM pocKEr.
The Abbe Le Kebourc, who is at
lached to the church of the Madeleine,
was standing n hi the inner swinging
doors when tbe explosion occured His
version of the affair is this: Tbe man
carrying the bomb had passed through
the main entrance with tbe stream of
Worshipper! who were pouring into the
church and Was about to pas the
swinging doors. He had his bauds iu
his coat pockets Une of the doors re
leased by a person passing through, re
bounded vio.ently aud struck the man
on the arm The blow upon his arm
cansed him to jork his baud from his
pocket nnd witu it came the bomb,
which fell upon the ttojr.
Then came the explosion, which
hurled persons near by in all dirsc
tion. When sufucie.it order was re
stored to enable an investigation to be
male the body of the man who had
carried tbe bomb was found lying inst
outside the swinging doors. His
clothing had been torn into shreds aud
his entrails were protruding from
a great hole in his abdomen, th
most of which had blown away and
wss scatters I about the space in the
lobby, while the walls, the door and
the clothing of many who stool near
were bespattered with blood and frag
mnt of the man flesh. Upon ex
amination of the horribly mutilated
body a number of BSileand bits of iron,
witii which the bomb bad been cnurged,
were found embedded iu the tlsch and
in the abdomen.

The body of the dead man having

Case to be Appealed.
WilkeS-BaBRE, March 18 The BSae
of Josepn Matuskowilz, belter kuowu
a "liii: Jo,'' who brought suit against
J C Harden dc 'Jo a few dsvi ago for
198,000 damages resulting from his in
carceration in the Jeansrille mine for
nineteen davs without food, was taken
from the jury this afternoon and a ver
dict for thedefeudant orderel by Judge
Woodward.
It wsa shown at the trial that Joe
agreed to exonerate the company from
the payment of all claims in considera
tion of 80. The judge gave bind
ing instructions to bud for defendant
company on the group i that damage
was caused by tbe negligence of A J..
Wolemsdorf, mining engiueer. whoae
survey and map wa inaccurate, he
being a co-cmpioye. Some of tbe
jurors protested against the ruling, bnt
as the case was taken out of their
hands, the protest was unavailing.
It is sail the case will be taken to
the supreme court, as it furnishes one
of the best tests of the present mine
law ever brought into the conns for
decision. The question whether a min
ing engiueer .- a co-employe of a miner
or laborer, is an important on, and if
Judge Woodward's ruling is upheld,
it will la? very difficult in future to se
cure a verdict in suits for damages
against coal companies.
