Kansas City Journal The present abidine place of no trace of the train robbers has been discovered, and the search is pretty thoroughly abandoned, County M shal Murphy and his deputies re- turned yesterday morning pretty well fagged out with heat and hard riding. They rode down the river some sixty miles examining the country closely but; saw and heard nothing leading them to believe they were on the track of the outlaws, but believe that the men did not cross the Missouri at any point below. Sheriff Timberlake, of Clay county, is of a similar belief, and thinks the ferry was made, if at all, above this point. One thing may now be set down as reasonably cer- tain, and that is that the bandits will not be caught this week or this year. The pursuit to be effective must be carried on in a slightly different man- ner. Starting out with a cavaleade, and going on a man hunt as if it were a fox chase, and especially going forth in such a manner after the game has been afoot several days, hardly re- commends itself as a proper plan. Jesse James and his myrmidons are full of guile and must be dealt with in a guileful manner, and it is safe to say they will hardly be run to earth when HUNTED WITH A HUE AND CRY on their own heather. Recent events have aroused all the old time interest in the notorious band of land pirates, and since the Winston affair a Journal reporter has spent all his spare_time in obtaining an account of their former lawless feats, and by close search of back files of newspapers, and interviewing a number of the older residents, some of whom are now on the police force, the task was accomplished, THE HISTORIES OF JESSE AND FRANK James set at defiance all established rules as set forth in] moral litera- ture for the young. They were brought up strictly in the way they should go, but deviated therefrom at the earliest opportunity which offered; the tree was inclined in a direction diametri- cally opposite to th: in, which the twig was Dbent. They were brought up in Clay county, the at- mosphere of which ‘is highly moral, notwithstanding ~ the ~ numerous campaign lies to the contrary, and re- ceived the benefits of a liberal edu tion, thus adding to the unquestion- ably fine natural abilities possessed by them, the attainments of knowledge. In any walk in life they would have been successful beyond the ordinary, and in their chosen profession, that of robbing and killing, they certainly occupy a position in the front rank. Both men were born_in Kentucky. Frank first saw the light in 1841, Jesse’s existence dating from 1845, When the latter was a year old the father, a Baptist clergyman, removed to' Missourt and settled in Clay county. The family were compara- tively well off for the times, but like all others, the Rev. Mr. James had the desire to add to his possessions, and when gold was first discovered in California in 49, he left his family, home and pastoral charge, and became one of the Argonauts. Two years after, he and his mining partner both died from the effects of poiscn; they had prepared food of some kind, al- lowed it to remain over night ina brass kettle, and immediateley after breakfast sickened and died before might of verdigris poisoning, FT ALONE WITH HER S0 Mrs. James, who is possessed of great executive ability and energy, superintended both her farm and the early education of the boys. The lat- ter she was eminently qualified to do, being highly educated. As soon as the future {mndits were old enough they were sent to Georgetown college, Scott county, Ky., where they continued the pursuit of knowledge. In 1857 the widow James married Dr. Reuben Samuels, a well known phf'siciun of Clay county, who, though still alive, has discontinued the prac- tice of his profession, and is now liv- ing with his wife on their farm, about four miles from Kearncy station on the Hannibal road, and about an equal distance from Holt, Murs, Samuels is now about sixty years of age, al- though she does not appear to be older than forty-five. In appearance she is very striking, tall, and stately, with clear cut, firm features, and a red and white complexion a girl might envy. Around her mouth are deep cut lines, which with her silver hairare the only noticeable indicatious of age. Mrs, Samuels insists that her sons are dead, and it is possible that she believes such to be the case, The James boys were essentially Southern in their ideas from habit and education, and at the opening of the rebellion were among the first to vol- unteer for service in the confederate army. . They were not mustered in on account of their youth, and re- turned home, Shortly afterward a party of Kansas soldiers, ‘called by the opposing forces *‘Jayhawkers" or “Red logs." cromed tho boundary on cne of their sallies and attached Dr, Samuels 10 THE LIMB OF A CONVENIENT TREE, He was cut down before hife was ex- tinet, but the act so inflamed his nwlp- sons that they swore vengeance on the doctor’s would-be executioners, and mounting their horses started to join Quantrell's band of bushwhackers, whose history is well known, Jesse and Frank soon rose to eminence by reason of their personal hardihood and dare-devil recklessness. They were absolutely regardless of life, either their own or that of any one else, and in consequencs of their ability and daring, they were each promoted to the command of a com- pany. At the Lawrence massacre, Quantrell’s order is said to have been | mained to him of his regiment afte | their disintegration hy & TIIEVOMAHA DAILY BEE: SA'I‘U_RI;)AY. JULY 23 to kill, without regard to age or sex, although this is disputed by certain of his followers, who aro at present in this viemity. However that may be, thirty Kansans fell on that eventful oceasion by the hand of Jesse James. In 1865 Quantrell and what re the federal| forees, went to T They then went to Hopkinsville, Ky., where the leader was killed in an engagement with Union troops. The guerillas then disbanded, the James boys turning to their homes They lived quietly for something over two years, when, having eftected a sort of part nership with the Younger brothers. who were also with Quantrell, others of that ilk, they entered the BUSINESS OF WHOLESALE ROBE Y on a magnificent scale. In the fall of the party went to the Lexington | ) races, On their journey home | they stopped at Russellville, Ky., where they robbed a bank of $14.000, | and went to Texas, where they in-| vested in stock, and remained quie- | scent until the following year. In December, 1869, this section of the country was startled by the rob- bery of the Gallatin bank, the officers being relioved of the custody of some 7,000, Indubitable proof was found fixing the crime on the band of which the brains were possessed by the James brothers, Several people were killed, and the robbers escaped with their swag to their country villas in Texas, The following spring the James and Younger boys mh\ others rode into the town of Corydon, Ia., in the fore- noon, dismounted, walked into the bank and while three of the number | kept the cashier, the only person in the bank quiet, the others went through the safe for several thousand dollars. The robbers were pursued to Missouri but none were caught. 1t is supposed that after the Corydon difliculty the James’ boys took refuge again in Clay county, as after an en- counter in n Texas dance house, in which the population of the Lone Star state was reduced by several, the at- mosphere in that neighborhood be- came too sultry for them. In the fall of 1870 the Lexington races were again attended, and it be- ing their nature to combine business with pleasure, ths Youngers and James boys TOOK IN THE COLUMBUS BANK, About the middle of the afternoon the six men, who had remained at the village tavern all day, mounted their horses, and rode up to the bank. While the president, cashier and a de- positor were engaged in conversation, looked down the barrels of three re- volvers, the other three men gathered up all the loose funds and the sextette started away, The cashier set up a cry of alarm, which was his last; a bullet from one of the revolvers for- ever silenced further speech. The gang were well mounted, and had but little difficulty in reaching the moun- tains far in advancoe of the sherifi’s posse which pursued. THE KANSAS CITY FAIR, On the last day of the Kansas City exposition in 1872, the Jamesand Younger brothers committed a rob- bery which for boldness and startling originality discounted the efforts of any robbers before or since. At b o'clock in the afternoon, after Mr, Hal), the treasurer of the association, nov of the Chicago Jocky club, had been around to the various entrances to collect the money, six ordmary ap- pearing men rode up to the oftice at the principal gate, and one of them looking through the window, said to Mr. Hall, as it from curiosity: ““‘How much money is there in that box?" To which the accomodating treasur- er replied that there was in the neigh- borhood of $10,000. Then said the | inquisitive stranger: *“Suppose Jesse James should come along here and tell you to give that up, what would you do?” “I should refuse” said Mr. Hall, laughingly. “Well, I am Jesso James,” said the questioner leaning half way through | the window, and holding a cocked navy under the treasurer's nose, ‘‘and I reckon you better pass that money over.” Mr. Hall thought so too and acted | accordmgly. The money was placed in a sack carried by one of the party, and they rode calmly down Twelfth street in full view of the populace, THE CHEEK DISPLAYED can only be appreciated when the fact is taken into consideration that there were at the least calcalation 30,000 | people on the grounds, and men wero | passing in and out the gate every minute, That evening a party of men rode up in front of a newspaper offico on Fourth street and called loudly by name for the editor. That gentleman | came down staivs and was presented | with an elegant gold watch and chain | “with the compliments of Jesso James | and command.” The gentleman who received the present is editing a paper inZan interior town, and still regulates the movament of the sux by his time- piece. The police of this city did not | apprehend any of the outlaws at the | time, and have continued to do so ever sinca | The next spring Frank James and oneof the Younger boysemployed them- | selves making inquiries into the man- ner in which express companies con- | ducted their business. Pending this | study the remainder of the gang went | through the bank of Sainte Genev The place was entered in the hr light of day, the officers and emplo, covered with revolvers, and the safe emptied of its contents. The robbers were pursued, and a short distance out of town the one who carried the bag of plunder dropped 1t After dismount- ing to pick up the money the man’s horsebroke away, and hearing his crios | for help the others rode back just in | time to rescue their companion from the posse. The money was lost. The next month, June, 1873, THE JAMES BOYS LEFT THE CITY where they had been several weeks, and went to a small town this side of Council Bluffs, where they were joined by the Younger brothers. On the 21st of the month they displaced a rail, threw the train from the track, creating terrible confusion, The en- gincer and fireman were both killedand several severely injured. Every dollar in the express car, beside a quantity of bullion were carried away, Officers of the law scoured the country for weeks with the culwmu{ result. The next December the boys again | | showed up in front of a stage which |ran between Malvern and Hot Springs. The passengers, instead of wing to Hot Springs, returned to Malvern to telograph for remittences.

In January, 1875, the detectives visited the home of Mrs. Samuels, near Kearney, on which ocasion Mrs, Samuels’ arm was blown off. A syn- onsis of the affair appeared in the nal of Tuesday. The next March H. M. Jeflerson, , introduced a Lill in the lature offering “gencral am- to tho James and Younger boy if thoy would retura home and give bouds to keep tho peace.

The ex pross car was entered, the messeng mtimidated, and the safo robbed of upwar 000, while the train was inomotion, After sceuring the wealth, the robbers pulled the bell cord, jumped off, and got a8 usual. - Some weeks after, Bill Me- Daniels, ahard case of this city, was ested for intoxication and taken to the police station, Upon his person was found evidence that he was a member of the gang. All efforts to get him to confess were unavailing, and he was killed a few days aftc ward while attempting to break ja July 7, 1876, a Missouri Pacitic train was robbed at Feterville, Pettis county, Fifteen thousand dollars were taken from the safe and the roby with their usual good for- tune es aped, Tn August, 1876, the gang appeared at Mankato, Minn., where they in- ted in fine horse flesh,” In early eptember they rode up to the North- fiell bank, seven in the party, and demanded the keys of the safe from Cushier Hayward, That gentleman sprang for a revolver which lay on a desk, but never reached it. The tel- ler and bookkeeper started to run; the latter only escaped. Before the robbers could” gather up any of the spoils the citizens were upon them, and a desperate bottle cnsued, in which two of the outlaws were killed, The remaining members of the party were pursued by the citizens, and by night, owing to the use of the tele- graph, fully TWO THOU were on the trail. About fifty miles from Northfield the robbers engaged in a_quarrel be- tween themselves, Jim Younger had been shot, and was too weak from loss of blood to proceed further. Jesse and Frank James provosed t he be shot, according to the later statements of the Youngers, and after much recrimination the Jumes' boys rode away, leaving Charles Pitts and the three Youngers, The latter were overtaken by their pursuers at Me- dalia and surrounded in a swamp. Pitts Wil killed and the Youngers all wounded, They were given medicol treatment, indicted, and are now in the Stillwater peni- tentiary under life sentences, Frank and Jesse escaped after a Sheriff Daniels, nes wus ear- SHOT DEAD TAMES, Tn the sprin & ND ARMED MEN, | three week's chase, during which 1t is said they caused numerous of their enemies to bite the dust. It wasgiven lout by their friends that they had died from the effects of wounds re- ceived in Minnesota. On the 7th of October in 1879, three years after the famous Glendale rob- bery oceurred, with the particulars of which every citizen of this place is | familiar, the amount socured is vari- ously estimated from $15,000 to $40,, 000, Nothing was learned which definitely fixed the erime upon the Jameses until Bassham's confession | last winter, orge Sheppard’s statements con- cerning the KILLING OF JE which were highly fabulous, are well known, Sheppard, while in the em- ploy of the detectives, joined the boys i a scheme to fob the Empire City JAMES, bank, and according to instruc- tions, gave th away to Jasper county o afterward going to the rendezvous of the outlaws, where he was met with drawn revolvers. Several shots were exchanged and Sheppard was struck, | On hig return here he gave out word that he had ridded the country of the famous Jesse, which was afterward found to be untrue, During '79 and '80 it is thought the bandit brothers were in Baltimore, In the year of 1880 the robbery of a coach near Mammoth Cave, Ky., was ascribed to them, but since the Empire City affair, which flashed in the pan, nothing definite has been known of them until the Winston rob- bery last week.
