Daylight and Seriously Wound Several
| Persons In = Fight-One Of the Robbers
Killed.
LoNGvIEw, Tex, May 24.-At 3 p. m.
yesterday two rough-looking men
walked into the First national bank.
one with a slicker with Winchester
concealed in its folds. He handed the
following note to President Joe Glenn
mons:
HONE. May q.
First National Bank, Longview:
This will introduce to you Charles Speckel-
meyer who wants some money and is going to
have it. b. AND +.
1t was written in pencil in a fairly
good hand on the back of printed
poster. The bank cashier thought it
was an importunate subscription to
some charity entertainment and start
ed to donate. when the robber pointed
his Winchester at him and told him
to hold up.
The other robber rushed into the side
wire door and grabbed the cash.
Tom Clemmons and the other bank Of
ficials were ordered to throw up their
hands. The robbers hurriedly emptied
the vaults. securing g.. 600 in $40 num-
bered 9, and nine $50 bills numbered 20,
and seven unsigned Longview bank
notes, which maylead to detection. While
this was going on two of the robbers
were in the alley in the rear of the
bank shooting at everybody who APP
peared and were being fired at by City
Marshal Muckley and Deputy Will
Stevens.
The firing made the robbers in the
bank very nervous, and they hurried
the bank officials out and told them to
run to the horses and to mount.
This was done in order to keep the
posse from shooting. but as the bullets
flew thick and fast the bank men ran
around the corner with several shots
after them.
During the battle which took place
George Buckingham, who was also
shooting at the robbers. was killed:
Marshal Muckley was shot in the head:
]. w. Mcqueen, a saloonkeeper, re-
,eived mortal wound in the bOd.y.
and c. L. Leonard was shot in the left
hand. George Bennett, one of the rob-
bers, was killed.
The bank officials escaped injury.
The bank offers reward of $500 for
their arrest, dead or alive, and the citi-
zenS added $500.

CRIPPLE CREEK.

Deputies aud Miners Fight-Gov. Waite Is
sues . Proclamation.
CRIPPLE CREEK. Col. May 2S.-The first
clash of arms between the striking min
ers of the Cripple Creek district and the
deputy sheriffs occurred on Saturday
William Rabideau. deputy. another
deputy whose name is unknown and
Hiram Crowley, a miner, were killed
and Dynamite Shorty and two
other miners were wounded. Frank
Mason, Fred Todd. ID. d. Dunn, Will
liam Bailey and E. NJ. Russell. miners,
were taken prisoners by the deputies
and are now held in their camp. Six
of the deputies were captured by the
miners during the fight. but are
thought to have been released after be-
ing disarmed.
All was quiet until about 2:45, when
the train bearing the deputies steamed
down within a short distance of the
miners line and stopped. The depu-
ties disembarked, 12s strong. and ad-
vanced on the miners in full force.
They were met with volley after volley
from the Winchesters carried by the
miners. and the fire was brislxly re-
turned. The night was dark. the only
light being furnished by pale moon
through breaks in the fieeting clouds.
and much of the fire was wasted. The
fighting waged fercely for half an
hour. The deputies finally succeeded
in driving the strikers back.
Gov. Waite issued a proclamation de-
claring it unlawful for any BODY of
armed men, other than the militia, to
assemble and commanding them to dis
perse. Immediately after signing the
proclamation an order was written
calling out the militia and ordering
them to Cripple Creek.
Afterwards the governor recalled his
order for the militia to go to Cripple
creek. the mine operators consenting
to arbitrate the matters at issue.

BlMETAlLlC LEAGUE.
Work of the Silver Meeting at Washington
No More Bonds Wanted.


WASHINGTON, May 25.-The Bimetal-
lie league yesterday considered the re-
port of the committee on resolutions.
AS finally adopted they declare the
league is unalterably opposed to the
further issue of interest bearing bonds,
that before casting their votes for
congressman the members of the
league will require assurances of
adherence to the free coinage of
silver and gold and at 16 to
ratio, and pledge that if a
bill providing for such coinage is passed
by congress and vetoed by the presi-
dent, they will work for and vote to
pass the bill over the presidents veto;
that if the election of president is
thrown into the house they will vote
only for the person in favor of free
coinage: denounce the present system
Of national banks as the monumental
monopoly of the nineteenth century.
They recommend the enactment of a
system of currency that will insure a
per capita circulation of $50, to be
made up by the free coinage of silver
and gold at 16 to 1, and the issue of
treasury notes; assert the discontinue
ance of the issuance of the silver money
and the repletion of the treasury by
bond issues is burdensome on the
masses; declare that it is the duty of
the secretary of the treasury to coin
the bullion now in the treasury and to
pay interest on the public debt with
silver. and demand the issue of $780,
600, 900 of non-interest-bearin notes of
small denominations.
A resolution was passed arraigning
congress for legislation which it was
alleged had burdened the people by
benefiting the creditor class at the ex-
pense of the producing class, the issue
of interest-bearing bonds and demone-
tization of silver being especially de-
nOOnced
