Found in a Straw Stack Where They Slept

tempt to Hold Up the Los An
geles Express at Modesto ON the
Eighth Instant.

STOCKTON, Sept. 15.-After one Of
the most relentless pursuits ever made
by Sheriff Cunningham, the veteran
peace officer of San Joaquin County,
George Williams and George w. SlageI
We're run down and captured near New
man, on the west side, at $50 this
morning.
The men made bungling attempt to
hold up the Los Angeles express at Mo-
reno a week ago tonight. They caught
sight of the officers this morning
when the latter were close upon their
trail, and gave them a hard chase
through the wild country
The man-hunters had to abandon
their horses and take after the two
young men on foot, forcing their way
through the thick tangled growth, over
wire fences and through the dense
chaparral.
The fugitives started from a straw
stack, where they slept last night. Be-
fore soaring them out of their hiding
place the officers had taken steps to
prevent their getting to the river. The
posse consisted of Sheriff Cunningham,
Sheriff Purvis of Stanislaus County, De-
tective Thacker of Wells, Fargo's Ex-
press, the three Newsome brothers and
a man named Rogers.
Cunningham, Purvis, Rogers and one
of the Newsome boys were stationed
out to keep the fugitives from getting
to the river. Thacker and two of the
NewsOmes We're to start the men from
their hiding place. It seems Williams
and Slagel had been watching the
..E
were surrounded and started from the
hay stack, making through the wild
country, Thacker and Newson1e follow
ing the trail they left of broken brush.
After a chase of two or three miles
the officers closed on their men, and the
latter, seeing escape impossible, made
no attempt to resist capture.
They threw down their guns and
surrendered. They had a shotgun,
Winchester rife, No. 81 caliber, and a
six shooter.
After the attempted hold-up the men
went to Modesto, where they obtained
papers stating that they were suspect
ed. Then they took to the Wild country
along the San Joaquin, where they
managed to elude the officers for a
week. The country was familiar to
Williams who was reared in that vi
cinity and who had hunted through
there.
Cunningham found he had passed
close to the men Sunday night. They
were then hiding back of a barn on the
way toward Grayson. At IL o'clock
Monday Williams and SIagel claim they
again saw the posse. Yesterday the
man-hunters had a buggy and the fugi-
tives saw them once more. Cunning
ham suspected they might have seen
the buggy and last night made a sue
cessful ruse, which resulted in the cap
ture of the men. The robbers did not
suspect until it was too late that a
wagon which they saw approaching
contained the pursuers.
I'VE got their tracks last evening""
said Cunningham to the reporter over
the wires from Newman. This morn
ing we struck out and found where
they had taken supper last night"
When the robbers We're taken into
custody they declined to make a state
