For over 24 hours the strikers had things all their own way and were jubilant. the Then came the backward sweep of the tide. A wire from the south announced that regulars were lu possession at Omaha, Council Bluffs and Hioux City , and that a little battalion was on its ! way to the relief of Brentwood, and stlil the starving and imprisoned live ' stock bailed, bellowed and pTjuealed j for food and water. Still passenger traliic was at a stand. The division euperhitendent and his assistants were powerless. Though they manned en : gines, threw switches and "braked" cars, the rans were soaped, the boilers foamed and their engines were "killed" under their very noses, all without vio lence of either word or deed. The strikers liked their division chief and hated In nt ixld with lirm n.'v.

That night the wintry sky above the Bed Water reflected the glare of a mile of linme. Cars, grain sheds and cn elevator went un in smoke. There was a barbecue where oiio soctlon of a cattle train could not be rescued and run out in time. All 1 this, telegraphed to Chicag and the ; officials scattered over the iongth of ; the road, called for strenuous action. The wires hummed with appeals and orders, and a calm, placid man. a dark. brown eyed man, who looked the so'l j dier in spite of civilian dress, drove S'n i to Bwntwood at dawn the following ' day, sent certain telegrams to eastern i points msd one to old Fort Tawnee. far ; away to the south, got a light breakfast and another buggy at the hotel and could again communicate by wire with department headquarters. "What did I tell you?" prowled the veteran Indian lighter, now taking his first turn of any consequence against the mob. "You've heard the old say ing, 'An army of sheep led by a lion can whip an army of Hons led by a sheep,' and that's what's side tracked now at Gunnison."
