Their Leader Is Seriously Wounded
Men Had Only SIS When
Captured.

4. Burton, Kan, Oct. 24.-After a
determined chase and bloody battle,
the. bandits who robbed the bank here
have been captured on an island in
the Arkansas river, fifteen miles from
here, and lodged in the Newton Jail.
The men gave their names as James
Bell, George Olsen, E. H. Johnson,
Thomas White and Frank HARDWOOD.
Johnson is badly wounded, being
shot in the head, breast, arms and
legs. They declare they were never
in Burton, but w. l.. Day, a merchant

who came into his store Thursday eve
ming and purchased some fruit.
The alleged bandits had only SIS
in their possession when searched.
Search is now being made for the
money, which is supposed to have
been buried. E@
In a battle between two Of the pur-
suers and three Of the robbers yester-
day, Harry Westmasotte, who was
carrying a shotgun, fired at the fugi-

to- wade across while the rest of the
pursuers covered the island with guns
and revolvers. Seeing the odds against
them, the men waved a white hand
kerchief, crawled from the sand pits
they had dug and surrendered.
The men said they were unable to es-
cape becuase they were afoot and were

leader. 1t is thought that these men
may have been the same ones that
held up the restaurant at Mcfarland
recently. The description tallies with
the Mcfarland bandits. The men say
they are ironworkers from Kansas City

his wanderings to evade Justice. He
went to Mexico but failed to find work
there and started for Honolulu, but
had no better success. He travelled
under an assumed name all the time.
Since his arrival here he tried to OBJ
tain work, even as a day laborer, but
failed. All the money he had left he
says was stolen from him. 4

HOW OLD Is ANN?
Old Enough to Know Better.

F. II
Nearly every house in Baychester
suffered damage from the explosion,
but a, woman who was thrown from
bed is believed to be the only person
injured by the explosion. A police
man who was crossing the tracks a
mile from the scene was knocked down
by the conclusion.
The three detached cars and the rear
car Of the main portion of the train
were burned. t
Within a half mile of the Bay
chester station, not a pane Of glass in
any Of the houses remained intact. In
Westminster village, almost panic
reigned. Men rushed to the :postoffice
armed with clubs, guns and knives,
believing that burglars had blown open
the safe.
Two lighthouses on Long Island
sound, half a mile away from the scene
of the explosion, were wrecked. There
was some damage done at City Island.

On the third day the nurse had a

The short duration of the period OF

MR.. BRYAN STANDS FIRM.

Almost simultaneous with the vir-
tnal declaration of Mr.. Cleveland that
he has no expectation of being can.
didate for the Democratic nomination
for president, Mr.. Bryan announces
that he is still for what he was for
three and seven years ago. He is for
free silver at the old ratio, for the
platforms of 1896 and 1900, Ger reve-
nue. for tariff, and is against "im-
perialism." He is not inclined to
"crawfish" on any proposition, which
shows that he and his followers will
make fight to carry their beliefs into
the next Democratic national plat
form.
The Globe Democrat doubtless re-
fleets the sentiment of the Republican
party, when il says anent Mr.. Bryan's
latest expressions:
"All this will suit the Republican
party. 1t would give Joy to the Re-
publicans to fight next years battle on
the issues of the two latest presiden-
tisl canvasses, plus imperialism, which
is a somewhat newer fad. If Mr..
Bryan can coax or coerce his party
into adopting his creed in 1904 he will
do a good service to the Republicans.
While there is not much Likelihood
that Mr.. Bryan himself will be the
candidate next vear-at least not the
candidate of the regular Democracy
he could do good work for the Re-
publicans, for sound politics and the
cause of American prosperity by in
sitting his ideas into a sufficient num-
Der of Democrats TO dominate the cen
