JIM OUhNISGs AT rVINIrA.-This party
who in connection with the Adams ex.
press robbery has acquired so much
notoriety, says in his letters that he
spent several days in this city last
season on the look out for a chance to
make a haul. Since the description OF
James has been given out by the
detectives IL has been discovered that
he was here shortly before the rob-
berry, or at least that is Deputy Mar.
shal Isbelps firm belief. Mr.. Isbell
tells us that he was here ON the 18th,
18th and goth Of October and that he
saw him walking on the Frisco plat
form in company with Fortheringham.
Our Informant also says he had several
eonversati ons with him, and also met
him again at Muskogee. Cummings,
who at that time called himself MUIR
ply. stated that he was looking for
some parties lgiving the inference that
he was an officer) and talked Of being
at Little Rock, Hot Springs and Eure-
ka Springs. II will be recollected that
just at this time two Of Marshal Isbells
prisoners, Bob Cummings and srtnk
Treadway, made their escape. This
occurrence interested the man In
question TO no small entent. lie
said he was going east on the Frisco
freight that evening (the conversation
being the day following the ESCAPED
and that II they boarded the train he
would arrest and hold them. Isbell
thinks II more than likely the fellow
took up the name Of Cummings from
the prisoner who escaped. The only
points OF difference in the descriptions
are that here the party wore frock
in stead OF a sack coat and was tribe
lighter ia weight than stated in the
circular. This INFORMATION has been
given the express officials and may
