Character OF the Gang -. aga
WILMINGTON, N. c., July IL, 1871.
Since that recent conflict with the Sher.
ifP and his posse in Robson county, in
which four citizens were killed and Q
number wounded, the lswnessness of
the Lowrys and their gang knows no
bounds. With the capture Of their
women as aiders and abettors. these ne
gro outlaws have become more desperate
than ever, and now they threaten to
deluge the country in blood il the
women are not released at once.
Besides the women, Pop Oxendine,
one of the most notorious Of the gang,
has been captured and lodged in jail
here for safe keeping, as the jail CT
Lumberton, the county seat of Robeson,
has never held any Of them as prisoners
longer than they desired to remain.
A few mornings since fifteen Of Low
ry's gang emerged from the swamps
armed to the teeth, and went to the
house of Mr.. John McNair, and de-
manded breakfast, which was speedily
furnished them. At dinner time they
visited the house Of Mr.. Bridgers, where
they dined in q like manner. Henry
Berry Lowry, the leader of the gang,
whose wife is now prisoner at Lum-
berton, ordered both of these gentlemen
to inform the Sheriff that if the women
were not instantly released he would
devastate the country and deluge it in
blood.
The Sheriff, having obtained q sup
ply of arms and ammunition from the
city, refused to liberate the women, and
returned a defiant answer to Lowry's
threats. This morning Lowry and his
band of negro outlaws waylaid and
killed Daniel Murdock Mclean, q
prominent citizen, and Hugh McLane,
his brother, a youth only thirteen years
old. They also wounded Archibald
McCollum. These parties were riding
along the public road in buggy and
were fred on from a thick piece of
woods.
A state of terror exists among the
women and children in Robson county.
The. Sheriff, has a posse Of $50 men in the
field, but their efforts thus far to capture
the outlaws have been utterly
fruitless. r,,..
The mos, intense excitement prevails
in the county, and bloody and deadly
conflict is hourly expected, as it is now
a matter OF life and death with both
citizens and outlaws. .... u|

An Appalling Disaster-The Steamer
James Barber Burned-Au the
Passengers Saved.

James bhFDeE nuEhcu-A" euO
Passengers Saved.
CHICAGO, July l9,-An appalling ac-
cident happened on the lake, about
twenty-five miles west Of St. Joe, Mich
igan, this morning. At midnight the
steamer James Barber caught fire, the
flames having originated near the
smoke stack This was at midnight,
when everybody except a few Of the
crew was in bed, and in few minutes
the vessel was enveloped in flames and
smoke. The panic was dreadful. Peo-
ple left the berths destitute Of clothing,
except the lightest portion of their night
clothes. There was nothing heard ex-
cept cries Of despair and the strong
command of the ships officers as they
directed the men to throw buckets Of
water on the burning boat. In this
work the more steady OF the passengers
ioined, and by the united exertions Of
those on board the steamer was kept
afloat until nearly three o'clock this
morning. About an hour before the
Barber went down the steamer Corona,
one of Goodrich's Line, attracted by the
flames of the burning ship, bore down
upon them and picked up some eighteen
persons, most Of whom were in state
of utter despair. The steamer Van
Roalte came along about the same time
and managed to save twelve others.
Two persons only are missing. None
Of the passengers perished. The Bar
Der went down at three o'clock. The
clerk had his hand cut in jumping from
the burning bulwark down on q float
ing door. At the time of the accident
and while the ship was burning it was
very calm, but twenty minutes after.
wards q furious gale sprung up. Had
the people left the burning boat to trust
themselves to pieces of timber every
one must have been lost. The passen-
gers Lost almost everything. The Bar
her was valued at $2l 900, and insured
for $1,000. Bad as the calamity was,
Il is consoling to know that more hu-
man lives were not sacrificed. A
thorough examination Of the cause Of
the accident will soon be made.

Serious shooting Affiair-swindier
Arrested.

AEIcbtCus
ST. LOUIS, July l9.-It is currently
reported here that Senator Schurz will
soon sever his COM ection with the
Westlich Post.
A serious shooting affair occurred at
saloon in Hays City, Kansas, on
Monday night, between some soldiers
of the Sixth Cavalry and a party Of
citizens, in which Charles Harrison
was killed. Sheriff Landau appeared
on the scene and commanded the peace,
when he was fred upon, receiving two
shots in his breast, mortally wound
ing him. Two soldiers man named
May and a Mexican teamster, were
also seriously wounded.
Previous to adjourning on Monday
last, the Supreme Court decided a case
which will probably have a bearing on
the recent action Of County Collector
Mcguire, in seizing property of the
Iron Mountain, Missouri, Pacific and
North Missouri railroads for alleged
delinquent taxes. The case was the
Missouri Pacific company against the
county collector of Cole county for
forcing the payment Of county taxes
by the seizure Of the property OF the
road. The court decided in favor Of
the collector, his functions being simply
ministerial, and in no way liable tor
erroneous assessments.
Deputy Sheriff Clark, Of LEVEL,
Mass, has arrived here with a requisi-
ton for Horace NJ. Lane. who has
been in the custody Of the police for a
few days past as a fugitive from justice.
The prisoner is charged by DR.. Aver,
the patent medicine man, with obtain
ing $4,000 worth of goods under false
pretenses.
