CRIPPLE CREEK EXAMPLE
OF SYSTEM'S WORK
Confession of Convict Harry Or
chard Is Placed on Par With
Affidavit of Jas McKlnney.
New York, May 11. "Dean of
Biack Sleuthdom" Is what James
McParland, western superintendent of
Pinkertons' National Detective agency,
l called in a book written by his
f irmer secretary. Morris Friedman,
who takes up the defense of Moyer,
Haywood nd Pettlbone, leaders or
the Western Federation of Miners,
whose trial is lust commencing at
Boise, Idaho, for the assassination of '
cx-t.ov. rraiiK steunenberg. It :si
professed to be a complete expose of
the Pinkerton system and Pinkerton
campaigns against organized labor by
one who has been on the Inside.
"The Pinkerton Labor Spy" is tho
name of the book, which has been
rushed into print in a cheap form, by
Gay-lord Wilshlre, the wealthy social
ist publisher of New York, formerly
of California. He heralds the book
as one that will help to save the lives
of Moyer, Haywood and Pettlbone.
Friedman, it is announced by Wil
shire, wrote the book after having
his sense of justice outraged. The
books is filled with what are claimed
to be copies of records and letters
from the western headquarters of the
Pinkertons at Denver.
Friedman calls the Western Feder
ation of Miners the leading labor or
ganization In the west. He adds:
"The United Mine Workers of Amer
ica as a whole is larger than the
Western Federation, but Its ultra
conservatlsin borders on the torpor
born of extreme timidity, and in no
way does it resemble its sister union
in vigor, energy and indomitable
courage. In the author's mind,
seemingly, the coal miners, compared
to the ore miners and smelter em
ployes of the west, are mollycoddles.
' Its readiness to rest-nt the smallest
encroachments on the rights of its i
humblest members," he adds, "has
naturally aroused the apprehension
of mine owners; and these fears have
been studiously fanned into ilames of
Mind and furious hatred by the Pin
kerton agency to obtain business."
Friedman goes on to say that Jas.
McParland has led a war of exter
mination on the Western Federation
of Miners. The war, the writer says, I
dok tne rorni or placing the mark of
of Cain upun the forehead of every
member, and in demonstrating that
this band of cut-throats was directed
by a secret inner circle composed of
the leaders in the union."
Friedman devotes much of his book
to an effort to show that the Pinker
t mi agency itself is handled by an
inner circle, consisting of the Pinker
tons and their cabinet.
The concern is alleged to liave fat
tened wonderfully In the last three
years, owing to specializing labor
espionage. The operating department
is described u being military in Its
discipline. The classes of operatives
mentioned are "special," "general"
and secret. " The specials are out
siders put temporarily upon isolated
cases. The general operatives de
vote their time to criminal work, and
the secret operatives are alleged to be
the labor operatives. The latter are
planted in factories and mines to
mingle with the men, spy on them,
and discourage organization.
These men are known by numbers
only, but Friedman claims to reveal
the Identity of many of them.
Friedman admits that these men
l.ave done wonderfully clever work,
but he says they have all been baf
fled in the attempt to demonstrate the
existence of an inner circle in the
Western Federation of Miners. He
gives what purports to be copies of
the special reports of secret oper
atives. The book says Mcl'arand gave one
"No. 43" instructions to break up a
smelter union. He was first to cause
trouble between the leaders. This
he accomplished. He sas next to
agitate for strike benefits, so the mill
men would demand aid from the
Western Federation.
Friedman writes that this operative
-.vas instructed to make the bills for
lelief as large us possible, so as to
drain the treasury of the Western
Federatou. Thereupon his apparent
hnciality toward the men caused
tliem to choose him presdent of the
UMi-.ii and later a delegate to the
W tern Federation. As the federa
tion was objecting to the relief bills,
he was Instructed by MoParland, says
the book, to lilt the relief down until
i' wnuld almo-t starve the strikers,
.md ti tin iw the blame on Secretary'
H iy uoil.
The writer tries t'i build up an ar
gument against the Moyer, Haywood,
i'.-ttibone pmsei ution from an at-:-ni.t
to wreck a Florence - Cripple
Cieek train on November lti, laJJ.
A rail was loosened near Anaconda,
ai, d the engineer stopped his train
.Hit in time to escape disaster. This
was during the Cripple Creek strike.
Tlier,. were non-union men and some
union men on tile train. Two men

Mi Kinney. implicated prominent
mine leai'.-rs. They were ac-iullted
at the trial. Testimony for the de- ;
f-oise was that a railroad detective!

track. The engineer udmitted he had.

been asked where would be a good
place to derail a train.
iMcKlnney, It is alleged, gave the
defense an aftldavit that he had been
hired to accuse the federation offi
cers. He also went back on his con
fession. Friedman, in his book,
places suspicion for this wreck upon
the Mine Owners' association.
Then he goes on to say that "if
the mine owners stooped to conspire
against the liberty of three men and
the fair names of thousands, we have
a right to doubt any further state
ments or charges made by tills un
scrupulous band."
The mysterious assassination of a
dozen non-union miners at Independ
ence, Colo., by an explosion of dyna
mite under the railway station plat
form is discussed in much the same
way. It is sought to argue away any
probability that the union miners aid
the dastardly work, and to show the
only logical benefit was to the Mine
Owners' association
His book winds up with the sug
gestion that "It Is probable the al
leged confession which McParland, of
the Pinkerton agency, secured from
Convict Harry Orchard Is on a par
with the confession of James Mc
Klnney." WHAT McPARLAXD SAYS.
Denver, May 1 1. James McPar
land, superintendent of the Pinkerton
agency, says in regard to Morris
Friedman, who is making an alleged
expose of the agency:
"Friedman was employed by us for
two years, up to May, 1905. His po
sition was that of patrol clerk. His
duties- consisted of filing reports and
attending to a squad of night watch
men. 1 do not know what he pur
ports to have charged In his book, but
the Western Federation of Miners has
undoubtedly been bunkoed by him.
Any statement concerning the use of
Pinkerton men In labor unions Is ab
solutely false."

Estimated That Drainage Tunnel
Will Make Possible Mining of
$200,000,000 Worth of Ore.
Colorado Spring, May ll.-Ti
beginning of work upon the long
projected Cripple Creek drainage tun
nel was celebrated hero today by fes
tivities participated in by a large
number of the most prominent min
ing and business men of the state.
The ceremonies took place at the
mouth of the tunnel at 3 o'clock this
afternoon. The big tunnel will Uii
water and permit the opening of a
virgin territory containing, it is esti
mated, over 20ii,noi),000 worth of
gold ore and prolong mining life in
Cripple Creek for twenty years to
come.
The building of the great Cripple
Creek (Colo.) drainage tunnel, which
was inaugurated today by the gov
ernor of the state and distinguished
visitors, marks an epoch in the his
tory of the famous gold camp.
Cripple Creek Is known from coast
to coast. Thousands of persons are
interested in its mines. Immense for
tunes have been made beneath its
hills, and it lias the distinction of
having been condemned originally
more strongly than any other suc
cessful mining district In the coun
try. The government officials and
nearly every mining engineer w ho ex
amined the district in its infancy pro
nounced it worthless. Since that
time the known product from the
district has exceeded $200,000,000,
and this has caused the district to
be called "the richest six miles
square in the world."
Originally a Cow Pa-lure.
It was originally a cow pasture.
The more or less mythological origin
of its peculiar name Is found in the
legend that countless cattle became
crjppled breaking their legs In an ef
fort to extricate themselves from the
boggy surface of the ground Into
which they wandered while feeding.
Some twelve or fourteen years ago
Wlnfield Scott Stratton, a poor Colo
rado Springs carpenter, began spend
ing his scant earnings in prospecting
some outcroppings In the Cripple
Creek cow pasture. Kvery one laugh
ed at him; but on the Fourth of July.
111, he located a claim on a vein
which gave him rich assays and he
called that claim The Independence.
He subsequently located many other
claims In that neighborhood and a
few years ago sold his property to an
English syndicate for $i0,000,000, af
ter extracting many millions from It
himself. In the succeeding years the
Cripple Creek cow pasture was trans
formed into a booming mining camp.
Fortunes were taken from its low
lying hills and the values were found
almost at grass roots.
When the high grade ore bodies on
the known veins had been extracted
down to the &00-foot point the water
troubles of the district began. A
drainage tunnel was therefore con
ceived and eventually driven to cut
the main water courses of the dis
trict at a depth of 6u0 feet, but that
tunnel was not deep enough. The
shafts soon reached the tunnel level
and water troubles were encountered.
The large operators In the district
realized that drastic measures were
necessary. The water courses must
tie taliped at great depth in order
to drain the mines and make accessi
ble the rich ore bodies known to ex
ist deep down In the ground. Pump
ing is both extensive and 'Unsatisfac
tory. After long months of Investiga
tion it was determined to drive a
deep drainage tunnel which would
drain the camp at great depth. The
cost of such an undertaking is en
ormous, approximating one million
dollars.
Tunnel a ccoil .
Hut such a tunnel was an impera
tive necessity. The mine owners, the
citizens of Colorado and the railroads
and smelters, joined forces and con
tributed to the raising of a (unu suf
ficient to drive the tunnel. The work
was started a few weeks ago and Is
progressing as fast as men and money
can carry It forward.
The portal of the tunnel is located
on the stream known as Cripple
(Continued oil Pugc I'lie.)

Phoenix, Ariz., May 11. The trial
of the so-called trust cases from the
former term of the United States
court was resumed Wednesday. The
lirst taken up was that of the govern
ment against the Valley Lumber com
pany, 1. Corpsteln, manager. There
Is only one more pending, that of
the government against the T. W.
Chamberlain Lumber company.
At the last term the casu against
H. P. DeMund was tried, but the
defendant was discharged on the
ground that he had testified before
the grand jury.
Wednesday was taken up with the
testimony for the prosecution. It
was much I lie same as that gone over
at the former trial of the DeMund
case and a considerable part Of It
consisted of the reading of the tes
timony of the various witnesses be

The defense offered the objection
to the indictment that it described
the defendant company as a corpora

articles of tiie company had not been
tiled in the recorder's office of this
county. It was shown though, that
the articles had been II lea in the of

"An erroneous report has gone
forth to the effect that Secretary Taft

"Secretary Taft has never made

"Such an arrangement would savor
