OXTUETKAIL.
Mr. Dan Congdon , who was in
strumental in capturing the couple
novr held at Fremont , was in the city
yesterday returning from AvocaIowa.
After going home , on Sunday , Mr.
Congdon received a dispatch Tueadey
S-ating that the wagon , supposed
tj contain the Benders ,
John and Kate , had passed
through Avoca Monday morning. He
had left a full description of the outfit
with Deputy Sheriff Beswick , of Ave
ca on Saturday , but when the outlaws
pzsted through there he was not in
town. John McCaulay , an Irishman ,
had , however , a description of the
pany , and when ho heard of the sus
pected travelers , ho at once declared
that they were the guilty onee. They
were traveling ina ncrth-easterlydirec-
tion.
tion.Mr.
Mr. Harlow , a grocer in
Avoca , saw them there Monday
morning. The man entered
Ins store to ask for aomc cheese and
crackers , and at that time and in driv
ing through town ho had the women
concealed , but Mr. Qarlow saw their
les protruding from under the cur
tain thrown over them , and this was
what aroused his suspicions. He
could not understand any necessity
for honostpecple to hide In that man
ner. Marshal Hazen , of Avoca , fol
lowed the outnt for eleven mile ? , un
til the wpgon entered a grove of tim
ber and in GO mo way escaped from his
sight.fla
fla returned homo and getting a
complete description from the deru'y
sheriff IH rerowed the chase on Tues
day accompanied by < hreo other men
the four being armed to the teeth anc
carrying the most approved style o
repeating rilles.
Mr. Congdon went over to Avoca
Wednesday morning and waited a daj
to" hear from them but no tidings
having been received , ho roturne (
home again feeling certa'n ho say
that they are on the right track am
confident of the capture of the enllr
Bender family. His theory now i
that there ia more than ono iran in
the party , as when ho told "Mother
Bender'1 that the rest of the psrtj
had Won arrested in Omaha shesskod
how many men they took wita Kite.
She owns up that Kate is in the wag
on. Mr. Congdon thinks that whci
the Iowa men overtake the wagon
there will bo some hard fighting em
that some ono will bo hurt. There i
no doubt but the parly have ere thi
lonriied of the arrest of the old man
and old woman and will be prcparei
for any emergency.
ATTEMPT TO BIUJ1E COXOKON.
Mr. Congdon , who has been the lif
and soul of this whole affair , ssys h
kept av.-ay from the Benders for several
oral days after the arrest , and aubse
juenlly the old man said to him when
ho called on him , "I wouldgivo § 10
to see the man who held my hands up
I would tear the heart out of his body.
Congdon was the man , but old Bcr.dc
had forgotten his face.
Afterwards ho seemed very anxiou
to escape , and eaid to Congdon tha
he would give him § 1000 to help him
"You haven't that much money , " Bai (
Congdon. "Well , 1 can get it , " wa
the reply. Mr. C. thinks that ho ha
stirred up * 'tho bigeest hornet's net
in thu country , " and that not only the
Benders , but a great many others wil
bo involved in the general calling to
account. He lias not a particle o
doubt as to the identity of the prison
crs.
ANOTHER WIBfESsS.
Our reporter yesterday mot a well
known and very prominent gentleman
of this state , who wai raised in Mor
gan county. Ph. , and attended schoo
in Jacksonville , where the McGregor
family lived and to which place they
were returning when arrested for the
horrible Kansas butcheries. He saw
the family there frequently , and know
two of the boys to have boon employee
In a brick-yard. The family had then
a terrible reputation for rascality am
were in general ill repute. When a
length in 18C9 they determined
to move to Kansas , there
was a general . feeling o
relief in tlio community. The olt
man had been married in I860 a
Sprinqfiold , 111. , to a woman our in
f jrmant believes to be the uno not
accompanying him. He had three
sons and a daughter , just the numbe
Bender's family included. Our in
formant left Jacksonville in the simc
wagon train with them , and travellei
in that manner for nineteen days
During this time ho had occasion to
watch their movements pretty closely
and thinks he ought to be able to iden
tify tlem If anyone can. Thay kep
np a systematic course of stealing al
along the line , and vxr

At Booueviile , Mo. , the eld man wen

length found. Kato was a hard cas
and had a bad reputation all throng ]
the train , her actions and conatan

her as a character destitute of virtu
or decency. The gentleman who tolc

does not know whether they are the
Benders or not , but he knows the
McGregors. He talked with the old
woman and shein her loquaciousness ,
told of incidents of the years preced
ing 18G9 , and spoke of the two boys
working at that brickyard. She also
named the judge of the district court
there in 1868 , and in fact , proved her
claim to the name of McGregor coq-
clusively.
\r *
'vnen questioned about the trip
ftho related an incident which occurred
near Mciico , Mo. , which as the
rumpfid-up charge of robbery made
y the old man against one of the
rain , who was tried and acquitted in
edalia , Mo. It was an attempt to
et up a sympathy for the family , but
was a failure. The gentleman's
wife , when asked by him what her re
membrance of the appearance of old
nan McGregor wa , gave an accurate
ascription of the prisoner , and she
id not know at the time tint any
uch arrest or charge had been made ,
"he gentleman declined to allow his
name to be used , as he did not want
o bo mixed up in tha affair. Thip ,
vith other circumstances , would go to
how that McGregor , and not Bender ,
s the family name.
A DOUBTER.
Of course there are some who scout
he idea of the identity of the Bend
ers and the McGregors. Our reporter
met a gentleman from Saline county
yesterday , Mr. C. F. Thomas , who
says that a short time after the expos
ure of the Benders' barbarities , he
was going south on horse-back , and
p ) is sad along the road near the Bender
mansion. A few miles further on his
criend , who rode with him , stopped
iiis horse , and pointing out three
raves in a retired spat said to him in
, confidential way that the three
Benders slept there , and that few
knew of it. The inference was that
the vigilantes had got In their work.
Mr. Thomas had reason to think that
his friend was not joking , andnowtho
question arises : if these are the mur
derers , who did the vigilantes hang ?

TheWabash to Build an Air
Line Between the Two.
The Northwestern Trunk Line ,
A Quhicy correspondent of tbo St ,
Louis Globe-Democrat gives the outlines -
lines of a now- railroad line to be bUllt
by the Wabaah , St. Louis & Pacific
eastward from that city , the work on
which is to be commenced about next
September. The line is to cross the
Wabash in the neighborhood of Mt ,
Sterling , running on thenfie to Beards-
town , thence to a point on the Peoria ,
Pekin & Jacksonville somewhere about
Chandlervillc , Riving the Wabaah
a short line and easy grades to Chi
cago. At the same time the Wabash
folks are to commence work on the
the western extension of the Quincy ,
Missouri & Pacific , now constructed
to Milan , Mo. , with the intention of
making an air line from the Peoria ,

SWINDLING THE KAILKOADS.
The Des Moines Register says there
must bo a hereafter ot painful nature
for such scamps as some of those who
composed a recent excursion party
from Chicago to San Francisco sent
out by the Chicago , Rock Island and
Pacific company. As the round trip
tickets were sold for only a tritlo more
than the regular fare one way , the
purchasers were required to stipulate
that they would return upon thembut
it has since been discovered that some
twenty of the party including , alas !
several women admit that they had
no intention of returning east ; their
object , of course , being to defraud
the railways by selling the return tick
ets. The names of these would-be
swindlers have been taken , and those
who buy their tickets will have an in
terestiug time coming east.
TUK C. AND N. HEW TKUJCE LINE.
Regarding the movements of the
hicago it Northwestern company in
[ OWB , The Dei Moines Register says
Gradually and ii jt slowly the
now trunk line of the Chicago &
Northwestern railway across the eUt (
of Iowa is being dovolopyd As is generally
orally known , it has several links of il
already built , or being built Its
trunk line running from the Miasiss
ippi to Anamosi , Jones county , is the
first. Its next extensive link is the
one beg'nning ' at ToledoTama county ,
runs northwest some twenty miles
end than turns stra'ght west , going to
Callahan , thence to Cowrie , thence to
Lake City , in Calhoun county. ThL
loaves a gap as to a straight cast and
west line , first between Anamosa and
a point north of Mirshalltown , and
the nest batween Lake City andCoun
cil Eluffd. Now it is said that th
first gap wi'l be fil'ed yet this year by
extending the read from Anamcsa t
Yintun , tbence west to a connection
with the Toledo branch. This gap
closed , there would be a continuou
and direct line through the magnifi
cent country from ths Mississippi rive
to Lake City , in Calhoun county ,
The speculation has bsen wheth
er the western end of this new trunk
line would Sioux City or Council
Bluffs. This is apparently settled
now , as it was reported in Dea Moices
yesterday that the contract had been
let to build the road from Lake City
to Carroll , which is on the present
Northwestern line From there the
contract has been lot southwest to
Harlan , in Shelby county , some forty
miles. This points n'ght straight nt
Council Bluffs , and make it clear that
it is to that city it is going , and not to
Sioux City.
By thisrontolhuNorthwestein would
gain one of the beat possible lines
o\er thootate , and have a line of its
own. It would bo through a inagui
ficent country , ono not accepted in
Iowa.
FELL IN A FIT.
A Bohemian Laborer Palls a
Victim to the Heat.
About 2 o'clock yesterday , the
driver of street car No. 5 , while on
Fifteenth nnd Douglas streets , called
to Marshal Westerdahl , who waa pass
ing , for asaistinco. The Marshal en
tered the car and found a man lying
on the floor with his foot hanging over
the back etep , and in an unconscious
stupor. Ho at once summoned two
policemen , and the three carried the
man into the court house yard ,
whore a blanket was provided , and hia
head bathed with water while the city
physician was sent for. The man
seemed to bo growing worse and soon
went into moat violent convulsions.liis
oyea rolling , and foam issuing from
hia mouth aim nostrils. The crowd
tLat had gathered around him thought
that he had taken poison , but he
shortly began to show signs of con
sciousness , and the conTulsions final
ly ceased , He began to cry and mut
ter some unintelligible words , which
the reporter took to be of the Bo
hemian language.
The man , whose name it was
impossible to learn , wag of short and
heavy build , dreased in brown over
alls and blouse , made of ducking. In
his hip pocket was seen a wooden
paddle , from which it is supposed that
tie is a laborer. The street car driver
did not know where the man entered
the car , and it was impossible to learn
where ho lived or where he came
from. When the reporter left him it
was thought that Tie would recover.
Caught for a Burglar.
Yesterday Sheriff Guy was sum
moned to the Barracks by Mr. Bech-
tel , who keeps a saloon near the tort ,
to arrest a man giving his name ae
Ales. Mascrip , charged with burglar
izing the latter's place last night. The
sheriff found Mascrip in the garrison
whore he was at work in the band
quarters in the capacity of janitor , and
lodged him in the county jail The
entered the saloon
burglar through a
back window and carried off two boxes
of cigars , two demijohns of whisky ,
and what small change there waa in
the money drawer a small sum. Just
how Mr. Bechtel's suspicions were
pointed toward the prisoner is not
known , bat it was hinted that one of
the latter's companions saw him in
possession of the plunder and inad
vertently cave ; him away. The pris
oner would not have anything to Bay
to the reporter , further than that he
was drunk and did not know what -he
was about when he raised the window ,
unlocked the drawer and carried off
tha spoils. We hope this evidense
will not have any effect upon the po-
lies judge at the trial this evening ,

He then related his experience in at

He was given about 100 lashes with a
cavy leather strap until he foil sense-

ut the beginning of the orgtnization

r Color Line , which numbered hun-
IrecJs and came out buldly without
masks. In 1874 they took the change
"n the political complexion of the

Col. Hugqica then proceeded to

election a comoany of artillery turned
a twenty pound cannon on the polling

about the court house cqnaro , within

of infantry. The voters were then
given notice that any man who want
