PEACE AT BULL HILL. Kiid of the .Miners Insurrection In Colone ito-Tlie Cotcmor'x .Mlbtlit IM-nrim-d by the CimmI Sense of the Ch'l Ollh er- The Itlotrr. Assured of Protection by the. Military, Kcape Arre-t by the Deputy sheriff. Ouitlk ( nr.KK, Col., .lune S. The long strike in Cripple Creek is ended and the settlement has W-en effected without bloodshed. At 10 o'clock yesterday morning .such a consummation seemed among the most imtwssible things that were liable to hapien. About U o'clock the deputies began leaving camp in squads of HM or metre, ostensibly for the purpose of scouting, but really to make a concerted attack unknown to the militia on Hull Hill. Fully two-thirds of the entire force had thus got out of camp ln-fore the su-T.w-wms of lien. Hrooks were aroused.
Then he gave orders for the militia to fall in and within a few minutes the latter were in hot pursuit. The deputies had arranged to make the north side of the mountain their main point of attack, and with this in view had drawn up the bulk of their force on the Colorado Springs road at its lise. The movement against this point, however, was to W supported by sorties from three other sides, and the balance of the force were distributed accordingly. Preparations were about complete for the attack when the militia came down upon the main Wxly of the depu

The. deputies were not inclined to obey the order, but being assured that the governor's instructions to the general wen to turn his cannon upon them if necessary to protect tlw miners from attack, they withdrew and ordered in their auxiliary detachment. They are now all in camp at tTillettc. Meanwhile l.en. Hrooks continue.! the march to Hull Hill, where he found the miners down up to receive hint. He made them a speech, in which he assured them of the protection of the militia, and asked them to submit to the service of warrants by the Wrilf. It was agreed that the sheriff and two deputies should go upon the hill to-day unarmed ami arrest parties for whom tin' former has warrants. A great number of these left Thursday ti ght
for parts unknown, anil all tue mm prepared to leave last night. I he miners have all laid down their anus, and the labor trouble is considered practically at an end.
