den at Jefferson City to-day and formerly

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Oct. 5-The Times
Jefferson City special has letter from
Frank James addressed to Gov. Crittenden
dated st. Kouis Oct. LIST, and the latter's re-
ply. The letter from James is proposal
to surrender. 1t is lengthy document.
He says that he is prompted to this act
through considerations for his
wife and children. and a desire to
retrieve his name from the shadow which
has been east upon it, and through it upon
the good name of Western Missouri He
makes plen that he is not so bad as he
has beeu painted; that the outlaw has the
thoughts and impulses of man and his
desire to return to the house
of his parents and there with his
family to pass his days in peace and thus
gain the respect of his fellow men. He
thinks it unnecessary at present to recount
the history of his life. Those who are his
friends are already acquainted with it, The
public at present is not disposed to Judge
him charitably, and he thinks that his suf-
ferlngs have already done penance for his
acts. He desires the authorship of
any of the letters threatening
the assassination of any relation for the
murder of Jesse, which hay We been attributed
to him. He submits the question: "Whether
Frank James, humbled, repentant.. and
reformed, before the world, will not be an
example more fraught with good to rising
generations than Frank James, the out
law and wanderer?'' He says this
letter is the result of determination
formed during the past four years of an
industrious farm life, which he has spent.
He asks for amnesty, if possible, and
states an answer will reach him through his
wife, which is at Independence, Mo.
On receipt of the letter, Gev. Crittenden
replied that he could make no definite
promises, but would recommend James to
present himself before the courts, answer
the charges against him, and answer them
as best becomes man. In accordance
Herewith James appeared before the gov
ernor to-day, accompanied by Maj. John
W. Edwards of Sadalia, as his attorney,
and formally surrendered himself. He
will arrive here at Kansas City tomorrow,
and have hearing at Independence, the
county seat.
Gov. Crittenden stated this was no time
to consider the matter of amnesty. If,
after the verdict of the court, the consid-
Grafton of the question of pardon seemed
justifable, he would consider it.
