FURIOUS FRANK.
Like a Sleuth Hound He Will Fol-
low the Ford Boys Until
Jesse's Death is Avenged.

There seems to- he no doubt that Frank
James is alive, and that he is seeking the
death of Bob and Charles Ford The fol-
lowi ing dispatch as special To the Kansas
Citv Times, Is highly sensational and NO
doubt true:
The smoke from the revolver which laid
Jesse James low has cleared away and the
consequent excitement has partially died
out. The center OF attraction connected
with the tragedy Is neither the editorials
of incendiary John Edwards, the outlaw ;
widow and children. nor the spot which
holds him in kearney, but L. transferred
to another portion of the state, that being
the 81. Joseph Jail. with Robert and Charles
Ford within its walls. After the moment
the people recovered from the shock. and
vet satisfaction which accompanied the
bullets errand, il was conceded that the
simple splitting of one mans blood would
cOIse the death OF every man connected
with the taking of oi the leader oil Il band
OF outlaws which Italy would tain blush
TO recognize.
Your correspondent has come into Il
know ledge OF facts which positively estab-
lish the other, that Frank James, brother
of the dead outlaw. Is at the head oi a
movement; which has ior its aim the ex-
termination of every man whose name Il
associated with this death act. IL Is known
To- few that Frank James passed through
Atchison ON Friday, going southwest, hav-
ing four people with him, and that on the
same dav Mrs. Jesse James went to Kansas
CITY. Yesterday Frank James returned
( from his mysterious visit, followed by his
pals Nv informant states that the gang
nf which Frank James will now take the
lead is recruited from that section OF
/ country I'm the Missouri bottoms opposite
here, which produced Poke Wells, Bill
! Norris, Jim Daugherty, John Pomirey. ct
al, being COMPOSED of the same material,
| having for Its purpose the avenging OF
Jesse James death, and no other lawles>
deed, with the exception of opposition,
which they will meet with the same firm
ne>s IL shown in wears past. To
this gang will be added few tried
mountain outlaws that Frank James has
! picked up during his residence for some
time i'm New Mexico on sheep ranch.
/ Robert ami Charles Ford are never To en-
/ Joy one moments peace. No matter what
/ their advice or assurance NAV be-, or now
I is. from Governor Crittenden, through a
. W tFTcn>DuFS, MISSOURI,
/ hour the jail doors of Buchanan county
are open to their willing steps and the
creaking less binding on murderers, a
struggle for life is inaugurated. In fact,
these brothers begin where Jesse James
left off. and they will be hunted and
bounded as per,istently ~ he was. Were
the reward they are supposed To obtain
twenty times $4,000, ii will not purchase
one days rest, one peaceful moment or
blessed night.
Not alone are these boys To be removed,
hut ali the informants in Cracker Neck
this method has been begun in Tucker
Basham going quickly. Officials, both
high and low, who have hung on for glory,
are marked. These persons are not ali to
GO at once. but time will show the purpose
and power OF this new gang. These death
: avengers are backed by the entire CON
! Stituency of the James family in Jackson,
Platte, Saline and Lafayette counties.
