Lack OF Promptitud, of Part of a Posse
Enables Them to Escape Again.
UNIoNTowN, July a9.-[SpecfaL ]-Yesterday
evening Sheriff Mccormick received tele-
gram from Fairchance that the Cooleys
were surrounded in the noun tains. and that
if he would come up Immediately he could
capture them. The Sheriff mustered up a
crowd. Part of the posse went to Oliphants
on the last train, part to Fairchance and the
remainder reached the Cooley settlement by
the noun tain roads. William c. McCormick's
quota arrived 20 minutes before the others,
and plunged into the mountains. Nc
Cormick, far in the lead, got within a few rods
of three of the gang, when they broke and
fed. AS the remainder of the posse had not
arrived the Cooleys escaped.
About half an hour after the Cooleys fired
their signal shots from as many parts OF the
mountains, which were answered by half
a dozen shots from the underbrush in the
valley at the foot of the mountains. This is
taken by the Sheriff to mean that they have
we'll arranged system of signals. Con-
stable Frank Campbell, of Connellsville,
organized posse, and will scour the noun
tains this evening. The outlaws have sworn
revenge for the death of Jack. The School
Board of Georges township met last night,
and increased their reward for Frank
Cooley from $3.50 to $500. The Sheriff will
renew his efforts.
