 Rendezvous of Outlaws.
 The fight today between the ban dits and the posse occurred at the rendezvous of the outlaws in the Deep Fork River bottoms, IS miles south west of here.

 Formed Semi circle Around Camp.
 Indications were, however, that the bandits expected to return. The dep- uty sheriffS decided to wait and ac- cordingly hid themselves around the camp, forming a semi-circle.
 After a long wait the posse men the shelter, having come from a near by farmhouse. The leader of the posse stepped out from hiding and demand ed that the three surrender.
 Bandits Opened Fire.
 Instantly the bandits dropped to the ground and began to fire at the posse men. That was a signal for the three score or more deputies to reply and for several minutes a volley of shots followed
 But the bandits were in the open and were fair targets for the deputies, who finally killed the three of them All three were shot in the head. Only one member of the posse was injured
 Dead Outlaws Identified.
