The Gia Woman and Her Daughter | Caught in Michigan. i Niles, Mich., Oct. 30.—During the | trial of Mrs. Eliza Davis yesterday, | on the charge of grand larceny, | many facts were adduced tending to show that Mrs. Munroe (Mrs Da-! vis’ mother) was connected with the Bender murders in Kansas. By her | own admission she has had seven | husbands and anumber of them have | mysteriously disappeared. Herdaugh | ter Eliza insists positively that! she is old Mrs. Bender. Much inter est was manifested and many blood | eurdling and horrible revelations | were brought out during the exam | ation. | Officers from Kansas, been in the state for ten days inves- tigating the case and were satisfied | that they had at last discovered the notorious Bender family, at once asked for a requisition for the pair, and when they arrived to-day Mrs- Monroe and her daughter, Mrs. Da yis, the latter supposed now to be Kate Bender, started west in charge of Deputy Sheriff L. ¥. Dick. The particular charge laid at their door is the assassination of Col. York in 1873. ; | who had | A WOMAN’S WORK. The Alleged Pender’s Nemesis Sedalia, Mo., Oct. 31.—Deputy Sheriff Dick of Oswego, Labette county, Kansas, arrived in this city this afternoonfrom Niles, Mich., having in charge Mrs. Almira Mon- ree and her daughter, Mrs. Eliza Davis of Lansing, alleged members of the famous Bender geng of mur- derers and outlaws. The party re mained in the city upwards of three hours and departed for Oswego over the M. K. & T. at night. The duputy expects to land his prisoners in the Labette county jail to-morrow morning. Mrs. Francis E. MeCann of Me- Pherson Kan., accompanied the par ty. According to her story her fatl- er was murdered at the home ofthe Benders, and she has never believed the story that the old man Bender, | his wife and Kate, the daughter, had been killed in the Indian territory by vigilantes, but for the past six eight years she had been on tr the female members of the gang, and six mouths ago she had run them down in Niles, Mich, She is posi- tive that the right parties are under arrest and declares thet Mrs. Davis has confessed to her thatthe old wo man is none other than Mrs. Bender. She is also positive that Mrs. ‘Davis is Kate Bender, the most crue! and bloodthirsty of the infamous gang. THE TWO WOMEN DESCRIBED.

Ske denies any con- nection with the Benders whatever and denounces Mrs. McCann strong terms. Mrs. Davis is a woman of 45, far from handsome and is not at allcom- municative. Her daughter, aged 3 years accompanies her, Dick says that the mother and is in daughter quarrel bitterly at inter- vals when left to themselves and each accuses the other of being re- sponsible for the position in which they are placed at present. A large crowd—among the num- ber former residents of Parsons and Oswego visited the car containing | to pay in the district. the party this evening, but were un- able to identify the prisoners as the Benders. The opinion largely pre- vails among them that the bones of the Benders are beneath the sod in the Indian Territory and that the |the all troubles away and make a new parties arrested in Michigan have no connection with the Benders what- ever.
