FIGHT WITH OUTLAWS
Battle Between 100 Citizens and
Five Masked Robbers.
Policeman Shot Through the Lungs and
Two of the Desperadoes Wounded
Chased to the Hills.

DANVILLE, Pa, JAN H.-Five masked
outlaws made raid on the postoffice at
an early hour this morning. A policeman
saw a masked man crouchng in the door
way and drew a revolver, but before he
could fire the stranger stepped around the
corner. The policeman rushed to the homes
of officers Russell and Van Gilger and gave
the alarm. In few minutes the three men
ran to the postoffice in time to meet the
mysterious stranger emerging from the
door, followed by companion. They blew
a loud whistle and commenced firing re-
volvers at the policemen, who lodged be-
hind the lampposts and returned the fire.
Ten shots were exchanged, when the rob-
bers were reinforced by three more men.
Every one was we'll armed, and continuous
round of firing commenced. The bandits
formed a square and hugged the stone
-stecsS 3oSd.ng 20 the massive building, where
they were able to escape the policemen's
bullets. Numerous citizens appeared armed
with weapons of every description. The fir
ing became so warm that the robbers con-
cluded TO retreat to the river bank They
discharged three volleys at excited towns
men and ran eastward, each side exchang
ing shots Van Gilger, who led the pur-
suers, suddenly threw up his hands and
fell, shot through the lungs. About the
same time TWO or the rODDerS 1ell. Ine1r
comrades grabbed them, and during a mo-
mentary halt of the pursuers, managed to
reach the Susquehanna river. A row boat
was secured and the three outlaws, after
laying their wounded companions at the
bottom of the boat, commenced sculing in
the direction of the Northumberland side.
The pursuers now a force of one hundred
infuriated men, secured as many boats as
possible, and an exciting chase ensued, re-
volvers and rifles cracking at every turn,
but nc one was hit Owing to their good
start, the outlaws succeeded in reaching the
opposite side before the foremost boat con-
tanning the police was half way across, and
when the pursuers touched land the daring
men were in the mountains, which are be-
ing secured on all sides by the sheriff's
posse. 1t is thought that the bandits will
seek cave in order to hide their wounded
comrades. In the event of being surprised
another desperate battle will occur. The
sheriff declares that he will bring back the
slayers of Van Gilger dead or alive.

LONG, WEARY TRIAL
Prosecution in the Coughlin Case
Rests After Six Weeks.
Defendants Attorneys VIII Require
About the Same Time-Alleged Sem
satiOnal Evidence Disco vered.

CHICAGO. Jan. 1.-THE prosecution in
the Coughlin trial, after weeks of con-
stantly recurring sensations rested it's case
to-day. The last few hours of the States
testimony were given up largely to the
Identification of the numerous exhibits
which had been placed in evidence. The
States attorneys had delayed proceedings
as long as possible. hoping for the arrival
from Scotland of Joe Mclaughlin, brother
of Mrs. Andrew Foy, but to-day they de-
cided that he would not be present to tes-
tify. and allowed the defense to begin it's
work. Among its last witnesses the prose-
cution called E. c. Voss of the United
States weather bureau who produced re-
ports to show that May and s. 1885, We're
cloudless. The defense objected to the state
ment, as one of it's witnesses had testified
that 1t had rained on the night of May 4
and Judge Wing succeeded in making the
witness say that it might have rained in
the vicinity of the Carlson cottage without
having rained at the Auditorium whether
office two miles away.
1t is estimated that it will take as much
time to introduce all the evidence for the
defense as was required by the State. 1t
took about six weeks, or from Dec. 8, until
the present time, TO introduce the State
witnesses, and should the defense cons lme
may not be looked for until about March
l. The State examined ninety-three wit
nesses, twenty-six less than were presented
at the former trial. This decrease in the
number of witnesses for the State was due
to the exclusion of all testimony relating
to Camp 20, of the Clan-na-Gael. The de-
fense, it is said, will introduce some sem
sational testimony. There was story to-
day that police Lieutenant Stiff would
when called TO the stand by the defense
make a serious charge against Captain
Schuettler. Stiff testified at the last trial
that he saw Coughlin at the Chicag '-ave-
nue. station at 1890 on the night of May
4-the same hour Niemann swore to hav-
ing seen him in the LakevieS saloon near
the Carlson cottage. Stiff also said that
certain records in the station showed that
Coughlin was there, but the document
could not be found. 1t is now said that
Stiff charges that Schuettler destroyed the
papers 10 prevent their being used in
Coughlin's defense, and that he will so
state the stand.
At the conclusion of to-day's session it
was announced that when court met to-
morrow the defense would offer motions
that portions of the evidence offered by
the State be excluded, and that this having
been DONE the case would go over TO Mon
day when the defense will begin the in
PRODUCTION of its evidence.
