Murdered By Miners
Leadville, Dec. 28.- About 2 o'clock Saturday morning Missouri miners employed at the Bison mine, who were on their way home from down town, met Patrick Carney and his wife, who had been attending a ball. The Missourians called Carney across the street and. talked to him a few minutes. Then one of them shot him, killing him instantly. Carney was an elderly man, well known in the camp, and was a "leaser," working on the Star mine. The Missourians were all arrested, but it is not known yet which one of them fired the fatal shot. From the standing of Carney in the eommunity, it is feared that his murder will cause considerable trouble, as the Miners' union people are highly incensed over it.
