I would suggest that the orcs did the "dirty work" of killing the dwarves. The last words in their Annals or whatever that book was that Gandalf studied read "they are coming" and had other references to "them" not "it" so that seems to indicate the dwarves saw the orcs as their main enemy. The Watcher in the Water is also named but there is no reference to balrog.
So there you have my opinion! Some more educated answers will propably be posted later by someone else. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]
