A DESPERATE GANG.

COFFEYVILLK, Kan., Oct. 14.—The town of Coffoyville Is wild with excitement over reported attempt to burn the town and kill the people out of revenge for the killing- of the Dalton gang lust week. The report started from the robbing of the Missouri Pacific trnin at Tyro, near Coffey ville Wednesday night. At noon Thursday the mayor of Coffoyville telegraphed the report to Parsons und the superintendent of tho M., K. & T. road at once fitted up a ear with a posse and rifles and sent it to Coffeyvillo as a special.

Armed to tlie Tuntli.

It arrived at the town at 3 o'clock and found th« place wild with fear and excitement. Doors and windows were barricaded and everybody was armed to the teeth. All of the rifles in tho town were in readiness and every man stood waiting for an attack. The car from the M., K. & T. at Parsons stood at the depot barricaded and armed. In tho homes women and children were frightened over tho outlook for another bloody encounter with the bandits, and tho mayor of CofTeyville conferred with the railroad officials and wired to Parsons that the people here could care for themselves, as the number of tho attaoking party was greatly magnified and that a matter of a few hours would result in their capture.

Uo Not Need Help Vet.

"Coffeyville people," said he, "have shown their ability to care for themselves." Ken and William Dalton and many of their sympathizers have been loitering about Coffoyville for days. Tuesday Emmet Dalton's wounded body was removed to Independence. Ben and William and their mother accompanied him. Since then nothing has been heard from thom here. At 0 o'clock Thursday evening bonfire was started in the plaza of the town to furnish an illumiuution.

Alleged I'lun of tlio nations'. The information of the approach of the Daltons was eonvej-ed to the people of Coffeyvillo by the force under Detective Dodge, of the Wells-Fargo Company, who is scouring the Indian territory for members of the gang. One of his men heard it and wired the mayor of Coffeyvillo, who asked for help from Parsons and got it. The plan was for George Dalton and forty whites and half-breeds, completely armed, to ride into Coffeyvillo at 9 o'clock Thursday night and wipo out the placo. No mercy was to be given, according to Dodge's information.

How,the Patrols Wore Placed. j. Upon the receipt of the notice of the impending raid the people assembled at the public square and were told off in detachments. A portion of them were held in reserve at the jail to go to the aid of any point that might be attacked. Others dismounted established a cordon around the village, guarding every approach to the town, making it a matter of practical impossibility for any one to reach the city without being observed. Iu addition to these precautions amounted patrol was sent out a distance of 4 miles into the country, where a most vigilant watch was kept up. All the citizens were well mined with rifles and revolve IS auu plenty of ammunition. As is the caso with all border towns, more especially those on the Indian territory line, the people possess an abundance of improved firearms and good amtnu-. nlttou and an excellent idea of their use. The patrol consists of men who have been in more than one light, who are cool, determined fellows, reudy to face death if need be. The country in this vicinity is open to a great extent, and tho only hope of the gang would be to catch the guards unawares. This is made the more difficult as the old campaigners, who control their movements, directed the guards both mounts ed and on foot to carefully avoid tho roads, to keep in the background and thus head off any cross country ilauk movement. While the roads are seemingly unoccupied it wonhl be utterly impossible for any living thing to move in the direction of the town without a challenge, swiftly followed by a shot if not heeded.

J'lirKoui lVopIn Ileudy to Fi^-ht. PARSONS, Ivan., Oct. 14.—As soon as the news of the contemplated invasion of CofTeyville was made public in this city a large posse of men was at onee armed and was ready to embark on a special train for Coffeyvillo when the news reached this city that there was no likelihood of any trouble and that in case of any invasion the people of Coffoyville were prepared to cope with tho invaders. The town of Coffeyvillo has been a pandemonium of excitement, yot no braver set of men ever shouldered a gun than the gallant and fearless citizens of this Kansas town.

There is every reason to believe from the actions of some of the mon who havo visited Coffoyville that if Einmett Dalton recovers some steps will be taken by his friends to liberate him. The people of Coffeyvillo will see to it that ho gets lii6 just deserts, even if they again hare to resort to arms.

The Train Itobbery.

WICHITA, Kan., Oct. 14.—Train No. 4S2, oast bound, on the Missouri Pacific railroad, was held up and tho Pacific express car was robbed by masked men just outside of Caney, Kan., at 10:80 o'clock Wodnesday night, but, as all the express money was transferred at Conway Springs, the outlaws cannot have secured much booty.

As the train was leaving Caney a man mounted the front platform of tho combination baggage and express car and from there climbed over the tender. As Engineer Eggli'ston stopped his

ORAWFORDSVILLE, INDIANA, FRIDAY OCTOBER 14, 1892.

trnin between the switches the robber covered him and the fireman with revolvers and ordered them to pull out further. When the whistlingpost was reached a second member of the gang was in waiting, and as soon as the engine and express ear had been uncoupled the engineer was again ordered to go ahead. In a deep cut, half a mile out. of Caney, the train was brought to a standstill, and at the pointof their revolvers the outlaws forced the cngino crew to open tho express car. Express Messenger J. N. Maxwell seems to have been unprepared for resistance, a he opened up his safe and delivered what money he had. The robbers then fired a few shots through the car, hitting no one, however, and left.

Superintendent Harding thinks there must have been at least three men implicated in the robbery. It is thought the men were the same who last week held up the station agent at Sedan, Kan.

Didn't Get .Vui'li.

Both robbers wore heavy black masks and their clothing was spattered with mud, indicating that thc.3' were mounted and had ridden hard. The express messenger claims lie does not know the value of tho booty secured. The express officials and railway men at different points along the line claim that the robbers did not secure S5U0, if, indeed, they got that amount. When tho train readied Tyro the watchman was told of the robbery, but no effort was made to'get a posse and pursue the robbers. This morning tho railway people sent a squad of officers to Tyro and will begin an active search for the men.

SantH Ko Agent Uohbed.

WIXFIKI.D, Kail., Oct 14.—Operator Mosier was taking a short nap in the Santa Fe depot Wednesday night when he was suddenly punched in the ribs and told to straighten up. lie did so, and looked squarely into two revolvers held by masked men. They lifted up his hat from the table and took Ills revolver. They also pulled out a drawer and found another pistol, showing that tbev had been familiar with the place. The cash drawer was then broken open and robbed of its contents, amounting to only $25. An attempt was then made to open the safe, but it was unsuccessful. Some persons waiting for a late train were searched and their valuablos taken.

ENDED IN A BANQUET.

Tho Wock'it Festivities In Honor of Columbus Closed—Tosts by Distinguished Speaker* at Lenox Lyceum.

NEW YORK. Oct. 14.—The Columbian celebration in this city was brought to a fitting close Thursday night by a grand banquet at the Lenox lyeeum. Several hundred of the best-known men in tho country were seated at the tables. The president of the United States was not present, owing to the illness of his wife, lie WRS represented by Vice President Morton. The hall had been decorated with excellent taste. Promptly at 8 o'clock, as the band played "Hail to the Chief," Vieo President Morton and Mayor Grant wore escorted to tho platform of tho stage.

On the same side of the tablo were Secretary of State Foster, ex-President Cleveland and Baron Fava On the left were Gov. Flower, ex-Presi-dent Hayes, Gen. Horace Porter and Bishop Potter. Among the guests at the tables on the main floor were many distinguished public men. The time for speech-making at length arrived and Mayor Grantrapped the company to order.

LOUISVILLE, Oct. 14.—The Louisville Times, after tho Courier-Journal the most important newspaper in this state, advises editorially that Kentucky abandon all idea of an OKhiblt at the world's fair.

DEATH IN A COLLIERY.

SIIA.MOKIN, Pa., Oct. 11.—An explosion of gas occurred at tho Sterliug colliery Thursday morning, supposed to have been caused bv a fall of coal b-eaking a miner's lamp. One man was killed, four were injured and eight others intombed. It is believed that the latter are all dead. Up to this time the searching party has been unable to reach the missing ones, owiug to so much "black damp." The following are the names of the dead and injured.

The Victims.

Dead—Thomas O'Cara. Probably dead—Heniumin Thomas, Samuel Collins, Patrick MoDcvltt, Isaac Gotinoy, Joseph ICelchicm, Michael Wctchock, Charles llellconager und Joseph Mllnstock.

Injured—Horace Price, terribly cut and mangled Samuel Jiogcrs, loader, cut and bruised William Mack, driver, cut and mangled: Daniel Kccd, driver,.skull fractured, burneti and cut will probably dio. Hastening to the Peeno of tho Digastor.

News of the awful disaster was soon carried to the homes of the miners and a moment later the wives and mothers of the unfortunate men had gathered about the mouth of the pit All were greatly excited and most of the women were crying and wringing their hands hysterlcallj*. The pit boss and mine superintendent were awake to the necessity of prompt action, and without loss of time gathered all the miners in the vicinity and organized them into squads, that the work of clearing away the wreckage and rescuing the entombed men might be carried on night and day until it was accomplished. The women were tenderly but firing* urged to stand back that they might not in any way hinder tho work.

Hoglniiiiig the Work of Ilcscue. In less than half an hour the task was begun. Tho first squad of rescuers, bared to the waist, entered upon the task with a zeal and determination that gave the weeping women hope that their loved ones might yet be saved. Hut, determined though the workmen were, tlicy were frequently driven back b.v tho poisonous black gas. Several of the zealous workmen wore overcome by it and had to be carried out' The work had been in prcgi ess two hours, when two miners who had been imprisoned in a new entry made their way, half dragging, half carrying two others, who were so badly overcome that they were unable to get out alone.

Oreeted by a shout of ,loy. .. The appearance of these men at the entrance of the mine was greeted with a shout of joy from the little gathering outside. The hysterical women hud become cooler by this time. The halfprosirated miners were quickly cared for by the woman who a short time before were wringing their hands in despair. An hour later the sturdy rescuers succeeded in liberating Irvin Edwards. At the time of the explosion he was with the men still entombed in tho slope and who, it is feared, have been suffocated, lie was hardly able to speak above a whisper. Some brandy was administered and he was in a little time able to tell the anxious wives, mothers and friends of the men still buried in the mine what little he knew of their condition.

Story or Survivor.-

"We all started by short cut for the bottom of the slope," he said, "hut I grow faint from inhaling the poisonous gas, lost my way, and after wandering, I don't know how long, sunk helpless where I was found. As near as 1 can make out the men are in an old gangway which is now closed by a mass of rock which fell a short time after the explosion."

It is impossible to say how long it will take, to dig the unfortunate miners out of tho old entry where they are supposed to be imprisoned. There is no means of telling how thick the mass of rock is und another hindrance is the poisonous black gas. Six mules were killed by tho explosion.

LYNCHED FOUR NEGROES.

A Wholesale Burning at the Stake Prevented by Hanging. SUNNv SOUTH, Ala., Oct. 14.—It is learned that Wednesday night a mob of infuriated citizens stormed the jail at Monroeville and took therefrom l)urrell Jones and his son Moses, with two accomplices, vjo were charged with murdering Mr. Richard L. Johnson and his daughter and burning their bodies at their residence at Davis Ferryon the Alabama river last Saturday night. The officials learned that a mob had been organized from the neighborhood of lower Beach Tree and were coming to the jail for the purpose of burning the four negroes at the stake. The prisoners were at once taken from the jail and an nttempt made to spirit thorn away, but the officials ran into another mob, who took the four prisoners, and, after hanging them to a tree, filled their bodies with bullets. Burrell Jones made a full confession while in jail and said that the four men went to Johnson's for the purpose of robbery und the old man discovered them, whereupon he was murdered with an ax. Tho daughter came to the rescuo of her father, and the villains, after assaulting, murdered her. The house was then set 011 fire to hide all traces of the crime. The mob that was to have burned the culprits expressed much dissatisfaction at being thwarted in their designs.

Indianapolis Grand Jurors After Iron Hall Officials.

TRUE BILLS FOUND AGAINST THEM.

The Indictment* Charge EmbezzlementSimilar Aeilou Looked For la Other States—The Punishment Js Severe.

TRUE BILLS FOUND.

INPIANAPOLIS, Ind., Oct 14.—The Marion county grand jury has made its final report and returned indictments against the officers of the late order of the Iron Hall. They are indicted on a charge of embezzlement. The indictments are joint and are in two courts.. The indicted men are:

Tho Indleted.

Freeman I). Somcrby, supreme Justice, Indiunnixilis, Ind. Murk S. Davis, supreme cashier, Indinnupolis, Ind. J. L. Youngliusband. Bupremc trustee and chairman of the board, Detroit, Mich. J. Henry Hays, supreme trustee and secreuiry or the board, Cumdun, N. J. C. E. Thompson, supreme trustee, liingbumton, N. V. George C. Fountain, supreme trustee, Jcrsej City, N. J. E. W. Rouse, supreme trustee, Baltimore, Md.

The Charges.

The first count charges them with embezzlements of §200,000 of the order's funds, which they converted to their, own use. The second count charges them with converting to their own use $200,000 by using it in Somerby'sbank at Philadelphia.

Seeking Hectulsltlonfl.

Nccessar}' papers will be issued and the governor will be asked for requisitions so that the indioted men may be brought in as soon as possible, and it may be that Judge Cox will order the arrest of Somerby by wire, asking that he be held until an officer can roach him with the necessary documents to return him to "headquarters" in Indianapolis. It is likely that Davis will be arrested at oneo.

Henry Ball to Be Asked.

As the amount alleged in the indictments to have been embezzled is a large one, it is probable that Judge Cox will require a heavy bond. Some of the men, Davis particularly, have considerable property,and it is believed he will have no trouble to furnish a bond in almost any amount

Mo'rv Work to Do.

The grand jury has not completed its work so far as the officials of the Iron llall are concerned. There are more of the "suprcmers" who are implicated. Their cases will reeeive attention at the next session and it will surprise no one to learn that somo of the promoters of tile Iron Hall are arrested for perjury. Some surprise is expressed that Supreme Accountant Walker is not on the list of indicted ones. It is claimed, however, that he was an underling and cid not obey any orders that would put him within tho clutches of the law.

Indlctmonts Looked for Ktsowliere* In Indiana embezzlement is severely punished. Convicted persons may be sent to the penitentiary for fourteen years. It is believed hero that the action of the Marion county grand jury will be followed by indictments in Philadelphia and Baltimore.

BLAINE'S VISIT TO REID

The ICx-Seoretary Says Ho l« Out ol I'nlUtcM, Hut Speech In Kxpected. WHITE PLAIN*, N. Y., Oct. 14.—Public interest centers about Ophir farm, the home of Whitelaw Raid, the republican candidate for vice president ExSecretary of State James G. Blaine is it guest of Mr. lleid, and his visit at this time has set all the politicians guessing as to its meaning and possible results.

On Tuesday night next tho people of White Plains will hold a mass meeting, which will be addressed by Mr. Reid, Warner Miller and Gen. Horace Porter. Mr. Blaine will also be present at this meeting and probably make a short address.

In conversation Mr. Blaine said on Thursday: "My friends know that I am no longer a public man in any sense of the word, and any utterance from mc would seem uncalled for. There Is no reason why 1 should tell republicans to do tljeir duty, nor to describe that duty for thorn, for they know it as well as I und they wjll do it. On all political subjects I have only to say what I have already said In my public letter to Mr. Manlcy. I see nothing to odd. My health has prevented me so far from taking any active part in the campaign and I have not considered the subject of entering the llcld as a speaker ut tills time."
