Leadville Roars Like Old Times Under Federal Probe
Leadville Colorado faces a sweeping federal inquiry after a grand jury summoned nearly the entire city administration.

The town once famed as a mining boomtown, dubbed wickedest town by Beecher, recalls its rough, lawless era and a rare Christmas truce in 1886 when crime paused for three days.
