NEWS IN DENVER
Denver, October 1 ? News of the dynamite outrage at
Baker City reached Federation headquarters in this city
early this morning. The news of the murder was followed
shortly afterwards by a report that the Western Federation
of Miners had been charged with the crime. The officials of
the Federation deny any connection with the affair and as
sert the killing, coming so shortly before the Pettibone trial
will have the effect of lessening the chanced for a fair trial
this month in Boise.
WESTERN FEDERATION OF MINERS CHARGED

of last nights dynamite outrage, regained consciousness at 2
o'clock this afternton. He made an ante mortem statement
while conscious and shortly after doing so lapsed into un
consciousness and has since been in comatose condition.
While all of his statements would not be given to the
?
public, enough is known to show that be passed two men
in the dark just before reaching the gate and that they
were likely the ones who were left to see that the trap'
was sprung. He also is alleged to have told the District
Attorney sufficient to warrant the belief that the crime
wa3 the work of agents of the Western Federation of
Miners who sought to prevent the arrest of Jack Simpkins
and the conviction of Pettil>one and the possible retrial '
of W. D, Haywood. Bloodhounds were put on the trail j
and Piukerton detectives havn-already been called to the!
