NEW YORK. Jan. 6-The black balling of
Theodore Seligman. son of the well-known
banker, jesse Se;igmann, by the Onion

circumstances
Several Union-leaguers said to-day in re-
gard to the resignation that they extreme
~ regretted Mr.. Einstein's action, but they
did not care to venture an opinion as to
the cause for the action.

FIGHT WITH BANDITS.
Second Installment of BOOne County

Second Installment of Boone County
Brfgand Story.
Associated Press Dispatch.
LEBANON, Ind, Jan. 6.-The excitement
occasioned by the kidnapping of the six
year-old son of Charles G. Wickham of
Thorntown, and his rescue from his captors
yesterday, who proved to be an organized
band of bandits, eight in number, who have
been terror to this community for many
months, is still intense. About o'clock
last evening the posse of officers who were
in pursuit of the fleeing outlaws came upon
them in dense thicket, two miles south
of their rendezvous. The bandits at once
took to their heels, and running fight
ensued. during which a number of shots
were exchanged, and though the
officers are certain all of them
could not have escaped unscathed, no one
was killed and the villains were soon lost
in the brush. All night long the officers
who had been reinforced by at least fifty
men and boys from the city, kept up their
search, but the outlaws were evidently
more familiar with the ground than their
pursuers and escaped. This morning, the
chase was resumed. but in vain, for no
trace of the fugitives could be found.
Hundreds of people visited the cave on
Sugar creek which has sheltered the gang
for the past few months. To-day a large
amount of stolen property was found, as
well as evidence of gravest crimes. About
three weeks ago, Jackson Bales, wealthy
farmer, living two miles east of here, dis
appeared. 1t is almost certain now that he
was murdered for his money.
