The Trout Creek Outrage, also known as the Truckee Outrage or Trout Creek Murder, was an example of anti-Chinese violence in California which occurred on the night of June 17–18, 1876. White residents of Truckee, California set fire to two cabins along Trout Creek that housed six Chinese immigrants working as woodcutters approximately 2 mi (3.2 km) northwest of the town; as the woodcutters fled the fires, the Truckee men shot them, killing one and wounding another. Seven men were arrested two months later and tried for arson and murder in September 1876, but the lone defendant for the murder charge was found not guilty by an all-white jury after nine minutes of deliberation, and the arson charges against the men were dismissed. Ten years later in 1886, the citizens of Truckee succeeded in

text
  • Such a crime will be as fruitful of mischief and embarrassment as the Coushitta massacre was to the Southern Democrats, and it will also be regarded as a complete proof that our claims of superior intelligence and civilization are preposterous and impudent. ... If a party of Americans in China had been attacked as the Truckee miscreants attacked the Chinese, the press of the United States would have been in arms at once, and the Government would have been called upon to demand instant indemnification from Peking, while it would have been thought perfectly justifiable to back up the demand with the guns of our men-of-war.
