Dunn was confronted by crowd of
fifty travelling men at the Saulpaugh

statement that ne had made at his

integrity of travelling men.
There are lot OF men travelling

CHASE DESPERAOOES
Wyoming Mulderers Not Likely
to Get Away

CODY, Wyo, Nov. 2.-The outlaws
who held up the First National Bank
of Cody are still free and seemingly
unwounded. in spite of several brushes
with pusuers today, and tonight the
fugitives, well mounted and well arm
ed, are heading for the Owl Creek
mountains. William F. Cody, his Eng
1ish guests and Iron Tail, the Sioux
warrior, will arrive here at noon to-
morrow and will at once take UP the
pursuit. There are nine in the party
After a battle with the bandits
eighteen miles southeast of Cody last
night, the outlaws fed into the hills
and the posses went to Meeteetse for
fresh horses, provisions, ammunition
and guides. In the fight no one was
hit, although 200 shots We're fired.
Deputy Chapman's horse was shot
from under him. The outlaws exposed
themselves recklessly.
Posses from Meeteetse basin and
other points are hurrying to the scene
and soon the mountains will swarm
with the man hunters. Two eelebrat-
ed Indian trailers from the Grow res
ervation and from Pine Ridge and
bloodhounds have been ordered from
Lincoln, Neb.
The fleeing outlaws were overtaken
today on Gray Bull river, fifteen miles
from Meeteetse, where they had stop
ped to get breakfast and rest their
jaded horses. The robbers mounted
and took TO the open. The posse fol-
lowed and a second running fight took
place. No one was wounded. The
capture or killing of the desperadoes
is now question of hours. They are
in the open country and cannot again
get out of sight of the determined men
on their trail
In the second fight one of the ban
dts was wounded in thigh, but his
companions hoisted him into a saddle
and after a fight of four miles got
away.
A courier came into Meeteetsee to-
night with the news that the murderers
had been surrounded in a forest or
Cottonwood creek and their capture
was likely to occur at any time. The
outlaws had been called upon to sur
render, but refused to come forth.
Night came on and no attempt was
made to dc any shooting. The timber
win be closely guarded during the
night and the outlaws will probably
be taken or killed in the morning.
