One Of the Gang Captured and
the Others Not Likely
to Escape.

jured in the Raid on
the Bank.

DEADwooD, s. D. June e0.-Four
masked men made desperate attempt
to rob the Butte County bank at Belle
Fourche. Entering the bank with re-
volvers drawn they ordered the Gus
toners present and the bank officials to
hold up their hands. A little hesitancy
ON the part of Cashier Marble drew o
shot from the gun of one of the robbers
which clipped off large portion Of the
cashiers right ear and enforced co,npll'
ance with the command. The safe and
counters were relieved of the cash they
contained, and the robbers. mounting
their horses, rode away.
Captured One of the Robbers.
An alarm was Immediately given and
in u few minutes a we'll mounted and
armed posse was in pursuit of tho rob-
bers. Within few miles from town
the posse came up with the fugitives
and running fight ensued, which re-
suited in one Of the robbers throwing up
his hands and sunendering. The 9th
ers, being better mounted, continued
their fight, but are now being closely
pursued and have very few chances OF
escape. The day was favorable for q
raid on the bank, as the weather was
such that it kept the townspeople OF
the street.
Used Their Isevolvers Freely.
As the party started away after the
assault on the bank an unusual display
of firearms on their part attracted the
attention of A. Giles. a merchant, who
surmised that something was wrong
and gave an alarm. Co.'S was made
the target for Il volley from the robbers
pistols, but escaped uninjured. Pursuit
was prompt, the bandits having barely
time to unhitch their horses and mount
before being surrounded. In the fight
that followed Walter Gay of Cay q
Sons was shot through the check, re-
ceiving q painful wound. The outlaws
fired right aud left while riding out OF
the town, but no one else was wounded.
Rest of the Gang Mt hay.
Thomas Day, the captured robber,
was overhauled half mile from town,
and is now in Jail at Deadwood. He is
q stranger in the vicinity. The rest OF
the gang are now at bay at the Three V
ranches few miles from Belle Fourche,
where they will likely be captured or
killed. 1t transpires that less than $76
was taken from the bank, Cashier Mar
bic having slammed shut and locked
the doors of the vault ut the entrance of
the robbers. He was fired at three
times, only one shot taking effect. He

New York, Sept. 1.-Final arrange ments have been made for the big pro- fessional mile bicycle race to be. held at the Manhattan Beach track on Sep tember 13 E. c. Bald, Arthur Gardner, Tom Eek, representing Riser and Mer- lens; J. S. McLeich, representing Tom Cooper, and c. R. Coulter, who looked after the interests of, Sanger, Johnson and Stevens, met to-day in the St. Paul building and quickly arranged things. Fred Loughead, the Canadian cham pion, was not represented, but his man. ager, MT. Schaeffer, has notified P. T. Powers that he will surely enter in the big event.
 The race will be decided in heats, and only two men will be allowed to start in the finals and semi-finals. The presence of only two men in each heat is expected to do away with team work. The race will settle beyond doubt the championship of the season and should prove the grandest struggle of the year. The purse will be the largest ever of fered for the milers. Fifty per cent. of the gross receipts will be divided. The winner, besides the honor and glory he will acquire, will receive over $1,000.
