cape With His Life.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, Jan. 24-United
States Marshal w. B. Jackson had a
narrow escape from being shot by a
moonshiner in Tallapoosa county the
other morning about daylight.
The marshal, in company with Depu-
ties Tutwiler and Kennemar, had gone
to Tallapoosa county to make a raid.
They ran across one of the largest illicit
distilleries found in some time. The
deputies were heavily armed and they
went to work to capture the operators
of the still. They laid in wait near the
still all night. Finally man who proved
to be John W. Cassidy came along and
he was nabbed. Marshals Tutwiler and
Kennemar went off with him and Mar
shall jackson waited for Cassady's COM
panlOns
The deputy remained in the woods
nearly all night. Finally day began to
dawn and jackson crouched behind
some bushes i'll order not to be seen by
the moonshi1ers when they appeared.
Suddenly he heard a rustic among the
bushes and saw man coming along on
the other side of creek. The deputy
waited till the man got near him and
then started from the bushes The man
saw him and quickly threw Winches-
ter rifle to his shoulder. Deputy Jack
son was li6tle too quick and leveling
his gun demanded that the stranger
drop his weapon. The stranger lower
ed the gun slightly. The deputy re-
peated his request and poked the muz-
zle of his gun in the mans face, where
upon he dropped his rife.
The deputy placed him under arrest.
The stranger proved to be George w.
Moore, who was convicted in the United
States court some time ago and had
served term for illicit distilling. Moore
is regarded as desperate man.

ST. Louis, Jan. pa special to The
Globe Democrat from Eufaula, l. I,
says:
Ex-Chief Roly Mcintosh, in the peace
ful party, and about 20 of his follower,
have taken refuge in Eufaula John
Cruk, leader of one of the insurrec
tionary Greek Indian bands, and some
of his men are watching Mcintosh. The
latter say the Snake band are concealed
near the town and they contemplate
capturing Mcintosh and his people.
Mayor Q. @. Foley of this city has depu-
tized a posse and will protect the ex-
chief and his people.
United States Marshal Bennett has
issued through ex-Chief Mcintosh the
following proclamation, which means
immediate fighting unless the troops are
here within n hours:
The Snakes Warned.

learn that the So called Snake bands had
left to organize a so-called government
and to elect officers and adopt a code OF
laws and are endeavoring TO now en-
force such laws | now say l am
sorry to learn this, because these
misguided people are thus getting
themselves up Ill open rebellion against
the constituted authorities and are
thereby themselves violating the laws
of this country. These members of the
so-callad Snake band have become vio-
lators OF the laws, and while justice may
be sometimes slow to set in motion,
there is no sort of question but that
every one connected with the Snake
band, whether as principal chief, So
called, or as light horsemen, judge or
otherwise, as an alder and abetter in the
outrages which they have committed,
will be brought to justice and required
to answer in the courts for their offenses
and crimes.

to resist this band i'll attempts to arrest
or to in any way interfere with such
person in the pursuit of his lawful
business, and this resistance, if neces-
sary, may go so far as to take the lives
of these men when such person is at

and it is with a desire to save these
misguided people from this fate that
some more determined action has not
been taken ere this. But the time has
now come when force will be used
against force, and the warrants l now
have and may receive for this band will
be served, no matter what the cost to
them"
