DKNVKK, Col., Marolt 10.—Gov. Waite with a body ot state troops on Thursday attempted to forcibly iustall his new appointees on the fire and police board. He was met by an armed force of police and deputy sheriffs, and a bloody uffray was barely averted by the arrival of federal troops and the intervention of prominent citizens.
Almost I'nder Martial Law. It is a grave situation that confronts the people of Denver. The national guard of Colorado is under arms, the federal troops from Fori Logan have been called out, and although martial law has uot been ofiicially declared there is no other recognized authority in Denver than the strong: arm of the military.
Cause of the Trouble.
This critical situation has been brought about by the determination of Gov. Waite to oust the two members of the fire and police board, Jackson Orr and 1). .1. Martin, for protecting gambling houses, and to place in office their successors, S. 1). Barnes and Dennis Mullins. Messrs. Orr and Martin, having obtained from the district court an ininnctiou restraiu*
iOV. W A !•-.
ing Gov. Waite from forcibly removing them, were determined to resist to the utmost, Whereupon the governor decided to ignore the court entirely and called upon the militia to assemble. 11 is orders were to proceed to tlie city hall and take it by force if necessary.
The ciVy officials accordingly kept the entire police force at the city hall all day under orders to resist the soldiers if atkeked. In addition several hundred of the toughest citizens, many of whom have records as man-killers, were sworn in as deputies by Sheriff Kurehinall and placed in the city hall as reinforcement of the police department. Each deputy was armed with two six-shooters and instructed to use them in case of necessity. The police were armed with shotguns in addition to their clubs and revolvers.
Soldiers Begin to Assemble. It was a mostexoiiing day. Early in the morning the militia, constituting the First regiment Colorado natioual guards, began to assemble at the armory and the Chaffee light artillery, aonsisting of three Galling guns and isix ten-pounders, were put in readiness to march. At the city hull all the patrolmen and the entire police force assembled at 10 o'clock, at which time shotguns and revolvers were placed in each man's hands. Every approach to the hall was guarded and no one allowed to enter unless his business was imperative. The mayor was helpless and remained away from the city hall. Gov. Waite staid in his private rooms at the Douglas and could not be seen. Jtoth sides declared they would not back down and bloodshed seemed inevitable.
March to the City Hall.
At 2 p. m. 200 militiamen marched to the city hall, planted two 1--pounder guns ami two Gatlings, and demanded a surrender of the two members of the lire and police board who refuse to be removed. The city hall was occupied by armed men and the windows and roofs of adjacent buildings were crowded. The streets held thousands of men and women.
Hrig. Gen. Brooks approached the curb iu front of the hall and was met by a committee from the chamber of commerce, who asked for tune that a conference might be had with the governor. Committees from the same body waited upon the members of the police board, bitting in their office under the strong protection of the police, and also upon the governor. The governor refused to alter his determination to fire upon the city hall and take it by force. The deposed members of •the police board declined to withdraw, and at 0 o'clock, when it was learned that bloodshed would be inevitable, the ehambor of commerce men gave up all hopes of a peaceable solution of the difficulty.
Matters were so serious at times that the lynching of the chief executive of the state of Colorado was talUed of, and had blood been shed in liis determination to take possession of the city hall Thursday a mob would most certainly have made an effort to hang him up to a lamp post. federal Troop* (ailed Tor.
At the critical moment, when all efforts of leading citizens of the town had failed to get either side to back down the governor called upon Gen. MeCook, commander of the department of Colorado, and the matter of preserving the peace went into the strong hands of the federal government. Gen. MeCook had been prepared for just such an emergency and the troops at Fort Logan, near this city, were in readiness to march. Me wired them to come, and a special train awaiting such an order soon brought five companies of regulars to the scene.
Ponding their arrival, Gen. McCook

telephoned Chief of Police Stone thnt he would support that official in all his efforts to preserve peace. This was a surprise to Gov. Waite and he at once sent to secure an arbitration of the difficulty. This was refused by the city hall people. The United States troops arrived about 8:80 p. m.
Called Alt of ho Militia.
At 8:45 p. m. the governor withdrew his forces and issued the following proclamation: "All ebmpanlcs of the natioual guard of Co!* orado are hereby notlllod to bo in readinoss at the inspection armories to respond: to call to come to Denver, which will be issued Friday ot this week. DAVIS
n.
WAITH. Governor.
"DENVER, Col., Thursday, p. in.'4 The withdrawal of the state troops from the scene of action was the result of a conference between Gov. Waite and Adjt. Gen, Tarsney, at which it was decided that it would be impossible to take the city hall with the force at hand without great and unnecessary loss of life. To-day the governor will call all the troops of the state to Denver, and Saturday he will renew his attompt to install the now dice commissioners in office. Gen. MeCook will confer 3 ith the governor at 0 o'clock to-day and will then decide upon his line of action.
Fotltlon of tlio Troop*.
Adjt Geu, Tarsney, an old Indian fighter, has placed the militia strategically in front of the city hall in Fourteenth street, with two Gatlings covering the two big Napoleons, loaded with grapo and solid shot, trained on the city hall, and four companies of luilit.ia in front and around them 1o ke-.p the crowd off. The excitement is intense, and increased oy the reinforcement of the local state troops, uutnberhtg 220 men, b3T the .Houlder and Fort Collins companies of the First reghneut, aud the Second regiment companie from Colorado Springs and Pueblo.
Gen. McCook announces that he will preserve the peace absolutely and will permit no armed or other interference with the regular course ot law. This is equivalent to leaving the old board in peaceful possession of the tire ami police departments until o.isted by the courts.
The Governor Tlireu-ened.

From It a. m. until 0 p. m. the state troops were drawn up in line of battle, and the city hall forces wero ready for action. The fire department had lines of hose laid through the city hall to throw water oil tlie besiegers. Tta« V.tremen were armed.

HKATH TO A BOMB THROWF.Ji. PAHJH, March 10. A dynamite outrage involving the death of the alleged anarchist who threw the f*tplosive tnis•.ilo was committed Thursdav afternoon ii.-.ide the chief entrance of the famous Church of Madeleine, In addition to killing the bomb-thrower, a number of people who were in his vicinity at the time of the explosion were more or less severely injured.
Aboul the house mentioned a loud expiosiou was heard inside the. church. A crowd »f people immediately rushed to the church and iu a short time tlie interior of the church and the Place de la Madeleine were in a state of great :'.mfusion and excitement.
The people who were the tirst to rush up the steps leading from the place to the main entrance of the church succeeded in entering the building and found it tilled with smoke, and from the inside could be heard the shrieks and groans of apparently a number of wounded people. iyiiHiiole.r Mown to IMeceM.
Near a small door on the right of the main entrance the people who were tirst to enter found shattered human remains. For a time, owing to the smoke and excitement, the people who made this discovery did not dare to penetrate any further. As the smoke cleared away and the people regained their presence of mind, it was seen that the remains were those of a man who was terribly shattered by the explosion. Upon the body of the man who had been blown to pieces were found a number of papers and a portrait of Uavachol, the executed anarchist.
When the smoke had cleared away and examination wus made of the premises, it. was seen that the bomb or infernal machine, which had apparently exploded prematurely while possession of the anarchist, had done but little damage to the church.
Might Have Killed llumlriwU. At the Lenten services, which were to have taken place at 1 o'clock, a large number of people would have been present, ami the police expressed the opinion that the dead man intended to explode his bomb in the midst of the crowd of worshipers.
There were but few people in the church at the time of the explosion as the hour was too early for the Lenten service, but they were so alarmed that they set up a chorus of cries aud groans, which led everybody to believe that the explosion had injured quite a number of them.
The door by which the bomb-thrower must have entered
vtbe
church, accord
ing to the. police, was the cause of his death. This door opens and shuts with a heavy swing, and it is believed that the bomb-thrower, pushing pon the door and having the bomb I^IOU his person, forgot or did not know of the strong swing of this ,door, and, in closing. it struck him and exploded the bomb.
Honored the iliuly to the Morgue. The corpse of the bomb thrower has been removed- from tin* church to a morgue. After it arrived there Dr. Alplionso' Bertillou made an until ro pome trieal measurement of the body and found that it coincided with the anarchist Pauwells, who was an intimate friend of the anarchists Jhistard and Paul Keclus. A number of rivets similar to those used by skindressers were found on the body, and Pauwells was a skin-dresser. When the corpse was lifted up to be taken to the morgue it was found that one of the hands tightly clasped a revolver. Both hands were badly injured. The bomb was filled with nails and rivets which literally ripped the abilumen of the anarchist into shreds.

Sniot nsiH KO, Ph.. March Id. Richard Purvear (colored), who several weeks ago killed Christian C. Khler and tried to murder tlie entire Khler family, was lynched by a mob Thursday morning. By some means Purycar had secured a stick, with which he pushed back tlie bolt of the cell door during the night, aud the outer door being unlocked through carelessness on the part of some jmo he gained access to the hall of the jail, lie tried to force his way out through an upper window, but failed, lie next secreted himself in the bath-room and waited uutil the sherilf should come in in the moruing.
Kneaped from Jail.
About 7 o'clocic Thursday morning as .Sheriff Kryes unlocked the door of the jail to take breakfast in to the prisoners and stepped into the corridor he noticed that the outer door of Puryear's cell was unlocked. At thesame time the prisoner jumped from his hiding place and sped out of the open jail door.closed it quickly and locked the sheriff in. He then went out through the kitchen of the jail building, aud running across some vacant lots was soon outside the borough limits. The sheriff shouted aud attracted the attention of his wife, who unlocked the door and set him free.
Captured and Hanged.
A gt?iic»ral alarm was at once sent out and an immediate pursuit of the- escaped murderer was begun. As he had but a few feet the start of his pursuers there was uo possibility of his getting away. The desperate man swam MeMichaels' creek, closely followed by a big negro, who caught him justf/ as he landed on the opposite bank. Puryear resisted, but the eight of revolver in his captor's hand caused hiin to yield. He was then brought back across the creek, where he was seized by a crowd that had gathered. Some one in the mob had a rope, which was quickly attached to the limb of a tree, and willing hands swung the desperado tip. From the time he escaped fron the jaii till he was hanged only nineteen minutes elapsed.
