NOTORIOUS HENRY STARR AF.

OF Arkansas or Kansas.

Guthrie. Okla, March 19.-Hcury

to have looted the Tyro. Kan, bank
TO the extent OF $1,000 recently, and
who is in the Usage nation. sent
word TO Governor Haskell today that
he was williur 20 surrender TO Okla.
homa officers providing the state
would refuse 10 deliver him to the
authorities OF either Kansas or Ar
kansas.
The message was brought by n citi-
zen OF Bartlesville, who came TO the
executive office on other business,
but who stated that starr whom
he had known for twenty years,
sent him word last night, requesting
him to lay the proposition before
the governor To say that the gov
crnor was amazed at the request
would be stating it mildly. He would
make no promises.
what do the fellows think they
can do?' asked the governor. Are
they believing they can rob towns
! OF states bordering on Oklahoma,
then come here and be protected"
For obvious reasons the name of
the man bringing the proposition is
withheld. He has known Henry
Starr for twenty years, and asserts
that he, as we'll as many others,
know Henry Starr's present hiding
place. There are in the gang be.
sides Henry Starr, according to the
visitor today, "Kid' Wilson and
George Higgins. The latter is bet
ter known as the "Ohio Kid" but is
a native of Elgin, Kan.
Neither OF the Wyckliffe boys are
with them. As reported the band
is making its rendezvous in cave
in the hills bordering Oh Panther
Creek in the Usage nation, four miles
northwest of BartlesviIle and com
mands the surrounding country fol
mile or two.
STAIRS family resides in Dewey, a
short distance from Bartlesville, and
1t is said that he receives daily Wis
its from both places. Tuesday q
child of the family died, and a wo
man mounted horse and carried
the news to the hills. Starr diC
not come to the funeral.
Bartlesville, Pawhuska and Cleve
land have anticipated visits from
the band and they are reported a
in preparation for the event Wor,
came to Bartlesville last night tina
the gang would make one more hau
and then go east into the Cheroke
country.
Starr claims he can prove an al
bi in the Tyro robbery, insistin
that he was twenty miles from tn
scene when the robbery was comml
