Officers Could Find Nothing to JUS
tify Further Action.

At $50 o'clock police headquarters
was at loose ends. A report had been
brought in by Mike Donovan that the
men had undoubtedly left the canyon,
and Mr. Jennings and the others anX-
iously awaited the return of the Off
GERS and patrol wagon. They made
their appearance at about Z o'clock,
tired, worn, dusty and hungry. Cap
tain Donovan and Mr.. Jennings i'm
mediately went into executive session,
from which they emerged some time
later. A general call for all officers not
absolutely necessarily engaged or not
too tired, was made and a request
sent for the attendance of Commits
Sioner Empey.
The stories told by the various par
Elephants in the exciting events OF the
day were listened to with great eager
ness. Opinions were diverse as to the
way and time in which the men es-
capped The general idea, however, was
that a retreat had been made through
Dry canyon, and that the men had
come down into the outskirts or We're
waiting for dusk in order to do so.
Vigilance Not Relaxed.
Vigilance was not relaxed last night.
1t is the intention of the authorities
here to capture the young men if it
takes several days and nights. All the
men who could work overtime and be
spared from duty, in addition to the
men from Davis county, the deputy
marshals and private volunteers, were
pressed into use and line was made
from Big Cottonwood to City Creek
canyon, with men who know the
country on guard.
It is known very well that George is
thoroughly familiar with the country.
For years he herded cattle in the
region and is acquainted with every
trail in these surrounding mountains.
1t was this knowledge that enabled
the your gsters to make their escape
from City Creek canyon.
All likely places where there could
be friends in league with the murder
ers. were watched very closely. 1t was
id very quietly during the evening
that some of the friends of the hunted
men had secured them two good saddle
horses and that they were to be ready
at an early hour this morning, when
it is proposed to decamp after some
needed rest and nourishment
The police department is on its met
tie

A FARMERS STORY.
John Eynaston Tells How He Came
Down with the Outlaws.

John Kynaston, of East Bountiful,
tells an odd tale in relation to the
two men and the manner in which
they escaped arrest by the police
force; or rather the manner in which
the police force escaped arresting
them.
Kynaston was seen yesterday by
reporter for this paper and the tale
he tells is as follows: He was coming
to this city about ) O'Clock yesterday
morning with d load of vegetables
and for companions had George and
Coughlin, who rode down the road
with him, although he was not GER
tain they were the men, but believed
they were On the road down they
shot at dog and killed it.
They did not appear to be in a
hurry; sometimes they were ahead of
him and at others in his rear. accord
ingly as he drove fast or slow. At
one time when they were behind him,
he met and passed the patrol wagon.
He declares the officer in charge ask
ed him if he had seen the men and if
so, where they were, and that he told
him they were just behind. The
wagon then went on and after it had
passed, the pair came riding by.
Pretty soon the patrol wagon came
back and the officers asked him if
he had seen them and he replied yes,
they were on ahead. The wagon drove
down the road and the men took to
the hills. Kynaston declares the
police must have passed the men on
the road and that they could not
have been over ten feet from them at
the time.
How in the name of all that is
wonderful. the officers could have
made such a mistake is astounding.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1895-08-02
it is supposed that Coughlin is really
guilty of shooting Dawes and Stage.
A VERY HARD DAY.
The Finest Worked Hard and De-
served Great Success in 1t.

The Finest Worked Hard and De-
served Great Success in 1t.
A policeman's lot was not a happy
one yesterday. Many of the men on
the force came to their round at work
with the drawback of having enjoyed
no sleep for at least twenty-four
hours, and before the trial is through
some will have longer records than
forty-eight hours to their credit.
More than that most of the officers
were riding or walking in the blazing
sun, or amid scrub oak and cedar and
underbrush warranted to ruin cloth
ing without sufficient to eat or drink.
Their efforts were deserving of much
better success than they had. 1t was
not the fault of the police that the
desperadoes were not captured.
From the first the department show
ed determination, courage and Vlgor
The pursuit made was warm, but
conditions were against the finest.
The lack of saddle horses prevented
a pursuit by the six officers who went
to the Hot Springs Had they all
been on the trail the first engagement
would have ended differently, for
there would have been eight instead
of four men to handle the desperate
youngsters Then the underbrush in
the canyon was against them, for 200
men could beat through that without
finding in it a man who is clever.
The sheriff's office was short on
hands. because of the absence of
Sheriff Hardy and the various depu-
ties who have been at the north. But
it got out it's best force and sent them
out to help in the good work.

GREAT RUN OF THE EMPIRE
STATE EXPRESS.
The 14S Miles from Syracuse to Al
bany Covered in 40 Minutes

4 feat in railroading was performed
Saturday on this section of the New
York Central, which, though not in
frequently paralleled on this most eff
ficient and speedy of roads, is GER
tainly calculated to make one wonder.
The feat was nothing less than the
accomplishment by the great Empire
State Express of a distance of 14S
miles in 40 minutes, something
scarcely possible, with safety, to a
less thoroughly governed and mechan-
ically perfect road.
The Empire arrived in Syracuse
Saturday afternoon forty-one minutes
late, was delayed three minutes by
its stop at Utica, and four minutes in
this city by accommodation train No.
Y, but arrived in Albany at 7:0S, hav-
ing made the 14S miles from Syracuse
in 40 minutes, this, of course, being
actual running time with stops de-
Quoted. Such moving across country
for such distance is enough to con-
vince any old-time obstructionist that
we of the present day are actually
flying" into the face of providence.
Old SSS, the railroaders' criterion of
locomotive excellence, had Jacob
Vrooman, of Schenectady. at the
throttle and was fired by Peter Wag-
ner, of st. townsville, both of whom
feel justifiable pride in the latest
achievements of their iron steed..-

BACK FROM EVANSTON.
Sheriff Hardy md Deputy Marshal
Dyer Return.

Sheriff Hardy and Deputy United
States Marshal Dyer arrived from
Evanston last evening. They had been
securing the country there, not learn
ing until yesterday morning that George
and Coughlin had returned to the neigh
borhood of Salt Lake. Deputy Sheriffs
Gibbs, Smith and Irwin are still in
the Evanston district, at least they
haven't reached Salt Lake.
At s o'clock last evening a posse
composed of John NJ. Young. Isadore
L. Welsh, Oscar Vandercook, w.
Stewart and two others left the
sheriff's Office and patroled the neigh
borhool of Dry canyon during the
night on the theory that the outlaws
had gone in that direction.
Deputy Sheriffs Sullivan, Irwin and
Cook and Deputy Marshal Cannon,
accompanied by a posse of officers,
arrived in Ogden at 1880 last night
They had followed the trail of
Coughlin and George from the scene
of the shooting right through 10 the
Junction City. They arrived at Salt
Lake at this moraing 20 join iii the

SEARCHING THE UNDERBRusH.

There " ere Lots of en- But Very
Few Results.
After the return of the officers with
the captured horses there was an inn
mediate rustling for men. All the
deputy sheriffs who could be spared
were in the field with no record of
their wherea bouts. Deputy Marshals
DYER and Cook being with the north
ern passes. the marshaTs force was
small. Deputies Cummock and Tim
mony, however, volunteered their ser
vices All the available police officers,
to the number of about twenty, were
called in and the cavalcade started,
accompanied by Fred Sansome, one of
the crack marksmen Of the Salt Lake
Gun club, Sheriff Saunders, of Davis
county, and dozens of private citizens
in carriages. on wheels, on foot and
on horseback. 1t was difficult to tell
sometimes who were officers and who
were sightseers, all the officers having
donned citizens clothes in order to be
less conspicuous. Big Sergeant Ford
was a figure among figures. He
looked like particularly opulent day
laborer, having put on old overalls

ReinfOFcementS in the Canyon.
In the canyon reinforcements were
found in the persons of several officers
and armed citizens from Davis county
and the surrounding country, deputy
sheriffs and guards. The spectators
seriously interfered with the officers.
who were stationed up and down the
creek for about two miles.
Beating the Underbrush.
The officers then began a systematic
beat of the underbrush in the canyon
proper and the small gullies for a long
! distance. They wandered in and out,
firing into suspicious places and peer
ing everywhere. But their persever-
ance was rewarded with no sight of
the men that were wanted. Men,
fearful of sudden shots from deep
thickets, passed through the gruesome
depths absolutely unframed. At the
end of a long search most of the men
came to the conclusion that the men
had gone out of the underbrush and
escaped somewhere.
An examination of the trail left by
the men showed they had retired from
the knoll, leaving everything. even to
their hacimore. behind. This was
found by the city guards afterwards.
The trail then went down into the
gully and crossed the creek. The men
were evidently forced to go to the
creek on account of their thirst, as
their pursuers were almost famished
and, as Captain Donovan expressed it,
drank until they seemed liable to
burst
From here the trail was very easily
followed. One of the men is wearing
high-heeled boots, slightly turned
over. 1T cut across the creek and up
the side Of the mountain. From it the
boys had evidently passed up the
mountain and over into Dry canyon.
There they are said to have a cabin
and a cache of victuals. No chase

why the husband and father had not
been home during the night, and con-
slant inquiries were afterwards sent
as TO the progress of events. Several
police officers. with Chairman Jen-

station. were waiting TO see what
would be the next best move large
crowd Of young and old men, excited
by The HeTaldS story and reports
sent out that the identity of the men
had been positively confirmed and
that the police were III hot pursuit,
hung around anxiously waiting for It'd
ings. The hours rolled slowly by and
up to noon nothing had been heard,
except the report of man with a
field glass. who had seen some of the
movements from a distance Of several
miles and believed the outlaws had
been cornered, but could not tell the
exact situation.
Created a Commotion.
At a few minutes past l o'clock
there was a stir on the sidewalk and
men and boys from all directions came
running up. The cause of it all was
the arrival of Sheets. Donovan and
Shannon with the horses and news
from the field.

The intelligence of the victory of
the officers spread like wild fire and
the queerest of reports were set
afloat on the streets. Some had it
that an officer or two had been kill
ed. others that the outlaws were
actually in Jail, others that one had
been shot and still others that both
were mOrtally wounded. A tremend-
Gus crowd was soon gathered around

every word Of information and, as
Captain Donovan went to lunch. he
was the observed of all observers and
was piled with a thousand different
