COFFEYYILLE EXCITED YET Citizens Determined to Prevent the Removal of Wounded Emmett Dalton. Talk with One of His Brothers—"Texas Jack's" Identity Established — Marksman Spears — Ollie Ogee Not One of the Bandits. Coffeyville, Kan., Oct. 7.— The excitement over the terrible tragedy of Wednesday, which resulted in the deaths of four of the Dalton gang and four citizens, defenders of the city against the Daltons' raid, still continues. Hundreds of visitors arrive on every train to visit the scene of the Daltons' last raid, and the city is crowdod with strangers. Trouble was narrowly averted this morniug when Sherill Callahan wanted to move Emmett Dalton to Independence, and had he carried out the plan there would have been war, for, although the citizens are willing that he should receive all the care necessary, they will not submit to his being moved. It is, however, only a question of time with him. His hours are numbered. His mother, brothers Benjamin and Simon, and sister, Mrs. Whipple, arrived this morning from Kingfisher. Benjamin Dalton is the eldest son, and is in his forty-first year. In conversation with a reporter, to-day, he said: "I was sick in bed when we received tho news of this awful a flair, bat managed to come with mother and the others. We had not seen the boys for two years, and had no idea where they were and what they were doing. I never had much in common with the ones who lie here dead and dying, as 1 am a farmer and try to be a good citizen. I wish you would state that mother and I have no ill-feeling against the people of Uoffeyville, and no words of censure. They simply did their duty, and. whilo we naturally deplore the loss of our hoys, we are also sorry for the citizens who gave no their lives iu defense of the town. Kmmett tells me he has been treated better than he hoped for by our people, and we are feeling sad, but not angry." Broad well andE. B. Wileox, brother and brother-in-law of Dick Broadwell, called "Texas Jack,'1 arrived from Hutchinson to-day. The former is a traveling aalesman and the latter a grocer. Wilcox said: "We were as greatly shocked by this occurrence as you. and entirely ignorant of Dick's being with the gang. We had not beard from him since May. He wal never wild, or a drinker or gambler, and, although a cowboy, we always thought him to be straight and law-abiding. His mother and sister Jennie, George and my wife eompose the family, and all live in Hutchinson." Broadwell's body was taken np and put in a colli n his family had purchased for him and then placed baok in the grave. The fnneral of Marshal Connolly took plaee this morning, and was largely attended. The body was taken to independence, the Missouri Pacine railway furnishing, froe of eharge, two ooaohes for friends. A meeting wai held to-nnht at tho wigwam, and trustees for a contribution fund for the relief of the widows and children of the m ordered citizens were appointed. The express and railroad companies will donate liberal sums. Cashier Ayers is still improving. Kelio hunters took every thing they could lay their hands on. even hairs from the tails of the robbers' horses. Ilnnted the Daltons for Six Weeks. G cthbie, a T., Oct, 7."-Fredcrlck Dodge, chief of the Wells-Fargo detectives, and United 8tates Marshal Thomas arrived here to-do,y from the Osage reservation, where they have been for six weeks, hunting the Daltons. They had located their headquarters, gotten full Information about their movements and were about ready to lead a posse to take them, when the gang suddenly pulled out for Coffey vllle, and Dodge and Thomas lost track of them. They have a mine of Information about this and other gangs who are rendezvousing In .that country, which they will put in good use in the near future. In the meantime they have gone to Coffey vllle to make proof of the Daltons for the Wells-Fargo loompany. It Is learned here today that when William Dalton arrived here yesterday ho came overland from tho direction of the country where his brothers had been for some time, and that he wore a full beard, which ho had shaved off at once. Ills actions were suspicious all around, and are being closely Investigated by officers. Ldveryinsn Spears' Markmanship. ' Chicago, Oct 7. "I know liveryman Sponrs, of Coffey vllle Kan., whoso deadly aim put three of the Dalton gang out of the way Wednesday, vary wed," said R. A. Dixon, of Kansas City, to a reporter at the Palmer House, "and I can fully subscribe to all that the dispatohes say relative to his s-lll as a marksman. I have been pra'jie-chloken-huntlng with him on several occasions, and he Invariably missed less shots than any other man in the party. Indeed, it was so unusual for him ever to tuis a shot that when he did it was always the subject ot inquiring comment. He is, without exception, the quickest shooter I ever saw. Itcpeateifly I have seen him, when the wagon ciiauccd to run on a frightened covey, drop the reins. Scire his gun, kill a couple of birds while the rest of us seldom got in more than one sbot. Tho rifle, however, Is his favorite' weapon, and hit skill with it is truly remarkable. The only wonder to mo is that Spears did net kill the whole crowd of outlaws Deloro anyone else had a chance to Are a shot." Ollle Oga Net a Dtndlt. Wichita, Kan., Oot 7. Ollle Ogee, who.lt was snppoesd, was the only member ot the ban lit gang to escape.

Dr. Wood, of Coffey vllie, Ogee's foster father, is here to-day and says ho cannot understand how Ogee's name became connected with that of the Daltons. A dispatch from Coffey vllle states that the identity of the escaped bandit is unknown. Will Tay the Rewards. Special to the Indianspolls Journal. j 8ax Francisco, Oct, 7.

WHAT WE OWE TO WOBUKN
Secretary ot State John W. Foster Speaks in Place of President Ilarrison. Interesting Address cn He l'htriotism ot These Who Founded the Town 250 Years AgoMerited Tribute tothe Chief Lxecutive. Woburx, Mass., Oct. 7. This city is celebrating its two-hnndred-nnd.tif ticth anniversary, and to-day nearly twenty thousand visitors were here. There was a monster parade this morning, and to-night a banquet was given in the new armory. Ex-Mayor Johnson acted as toastmaster. Before beginning his duties he called attention to the fact that three Presidents of the United StatesFranklin Pierce, Grover Cleveland aud Benjamin Harrison traced their ancestry to families now or formerly residing in Wobarn. His mention of the name of Cleveland brought out a burst of enthusiastic applause, but when he spoke tho name of President Harrison it was greeted with a nerfect ovntion of cheers and clapping of hands. The tirst toast was "The President of the United Mates." and alter a brief letter of regret had been rad from Tretddeot Harrison, his representative, in the porson of Hon. John W. Foster. Secretary of State, was presented and was given u reception that must have stirred his heart with delight. He said: It Is not for mo to rerond to-day for the President 1n his relation to you as a son of Woburn. I can boast of not a drop of New KnKlaud Mood la my veins. My only right of kinship to this interesting anniversary is a brief residence at your near-by venerable university. Hut as the early Inhabitants of this ancient town loyally honored their king bevond tho sea, eo may, we all as Auierioan citizens, with even greater propriety, pay our tribute of raapect to tho chief niamtrato whom, by our free choice, wo have placed in the. supremest post of authority of this 5. at Ion. The free men of thlsai;cieut town and their compeers, through tho principles they engrafted to tho society and government, and which their progeny disseminated throughout this broad land in the fullness of time, wrought a change of allegiance. Hut, if I have read arlfht the history of the momentous movement which peopled these colonies. It was not a desire to cscapo the domination of royalty, but rather an earnest longing for rella-ious liberty, which brought your forefathers and others to tho shores of the now world. The early citizens of Massachusetts were loyal to their kiug. Hut tho principles ot liberty and self-government, which were Incorporated in the town orders of Woburn and put in practice through its town meetings i30 years ago. M as the seed, planted by earnest, god fearing men, sedulously cultivated by their descendants which bore its fully-ripened fruit it 1776", when, under the inspiration of Otis and Patrick Henry, and through the courage of Adams, Henjamiu Harrison and their colleagues, allegiance to King George and royalty was forever sundered, How wisely your fathers acted may be Judged by the line of President from Washington to Harrison and by a comparison with the royal personages who have in the past century ruled the nations of Europe. While in the enforced absence of the President from these festivities it may have been expected that I should respond to tho manifestations of respect to him and to his high office, which you have so heartily offered, it would not on this occasion be becoming in me, as a member of his official household, to enter upon any commendation of his administration. The record which he has made and the inanuer in which he has discharged the high trust confided to him are known to you all, and you can judgo how worthily he is entitled to rank in the illustrious line of American Presidents. I may, however, be pardoned, as ono to tbe manner born, for saying that I and my neighbors take pride in pointing to him as a representative eon of Indiana. And when I make this allusion It leads mo to reflect upon the influences which have molded tho character of the present and last generation of men of that broad region of the Ohio and Mississippi valley, where now rests tho scat of empire of this Republic The Northwestern Territory, far greater In extent than most of the nations of Europe, was rescued from the Might which had been fastened on the territory to the south of It, and was forever dedicated to freedom, mainly through the influence which emanated from the political and religious sentiments of New England, and which had its worthy exponent in Nathan .Dane, a sou of Massachusetts. And when this territory -was opened up to settlement "no portion of tho sea-: board fctatos was more active in populating it' than New England, and, while Massachusetts Sent its colonists In great numbers, no part of it made more worthy contributions thau tho ancient town of Woburn. While It must bo recognized that Virginia and New York and others of the original fetates contributed much to the development of tho Northwest, the impress of no other portion of the old confederation was comparable to that of New England, and tbe present generation of that vast region Is Indebted to It more than to rjl others combined for the influences which tnoM character for good citizenship. In no era of o4r history has the truth of this been tuado more maulfest than in the political turmoil and agita-. tion which preceded and the intense patriotism which attended the great uprising of 18(51. I trust I may bo pardoned the personal allusion if I illustrate the point I am endeavoring to make by citing the example of nenjum in Harrison in that crista. Tho date of the tiring on Fort Pumter found him a young lawyer struggling to maintain a wile and two little ones by cloe attention to business. Ho was a man of peace, of domestic habits and studious taetes. He was willing to let the men of martial spirit, who delighted la "the pomp and circumstance of glorious war," 1111 up tho first regiments from Indiana, us there was a contest for precedence; but as the great struggle progressed and it became evident that the Nation's resources were to be taxed to their utmost to maintain the Union, the young lawyer felt that the call of duty was to bim also. Under a commission as second lieutenant from the Governor he set to work to raino a company. With a lifer, a drummer and a flag ho pnraded the streets of Indianapolis and called hU neighbors to arms, and under the Inspiration of such example, not only the company, but a regiment, was eoon made up. and as its commander,, he marched to the front and thero remained till the last enemy of his country had laid down his arms and peaco acain smiled on a united Nation. The history of llenjamln Harrison in this respeet was that of thousands yes, lens of thou-' sands of young men of tho Northwest whose characters had been so greatly molded by tho influences which went out from Woburn and its neighboring towns and cities. And It is because these influences have so greatly permeated the Btatos which were formed out of that vast domain of freedom that wo in Indiana call our President a typical man of his home and generation; and we are pleased to be assured by the people of this ancient corporation that he ia worthy to fill the exalted post first occupied by Washington. In bis name- and on my own behalf, I heartily thank you for this manife ation und pray that the spirit of godllnetts, of mo ality, of Intelligence, of liberty and patriotism which for l!0O years has dwelt with you may here abide and pervade tho whole Kepublio for generations to come.
