The notorious bandit and train-robber, Jesse
James, who has been terror to Missouri and the
southwest since the close OF the rebellion, was
shot dead by one OF his associates at St Joseph,
Mo, yesterday morning. The large rewards Of
fered by the state of Missouri for the body OF Jesse
James, 'either dead or alive" tempted the cupid
ity Of one of his confederates in crime named
Ford The latter, taking advantage of moment
when James had disarmed himself preparatory to
washing his hands, sent bullet through the head
OF the desperate. There is good reason to believe
that the killing OF James will result in the break
ing-up OF the gang of robbers he has headed.
He was the master-spirit OF those lawess ruffians
and had so successfully defied the law that they
seemed to regard him as invincible. The manner
of his taking OF will no doubt also have diScour-
aging effect upon those of his gang who survive
him. They viii feel that they cannot trust each
other, now that one Of the band has assassinated
the chief for the sake of the blood-money II the
state can now convict Ford, the murderer of
James, as accompliee of the latter In his deeds
OF violence and bl0OdShed and send him to the gal
lows pententiary for life, 1t will derive double
benefit from that one shot which killed James A
man who would shoot down confederate I'm crime
for the price set upon his head, would murder the
traveller for the money In his pocket, and is there
fore dangerous in any community.
