h THE OMAHA DAILY BEE ; SUNDAY , JANUARY 31 , . 1892-SIXTEEN IN THE .BLACK TAIL BASIN Desperate Clark's ' Fork Country Outlaws Housed for the Winter , THEY MAY BE CAPTURED IN THE SPRING History of Their lllnoily l ceil nnd Xutner- ottl lliiltU on the I'roprrly of the Sur rounding Count rj Personnel of thn liiinil. Colo. , Jan. 'M. ( Special to Tue BEK. ] The general reading oublio will readily recall the murder some months since of Uanchrann Weaver at the hands of the Snyder-Jacknon band of stock thieves , operating In the Clark's Fork country on Iho northwestern Wyoming and southwestern Montana border * , Mr. Weaver being nt the tlmo of bis tragic death in pursuit of the thieves , with Iho hope of recovering some horses they hod stolen from him. From Thomai Paddock , a huntorof the Owl mountains In Wyoming , a late Denver visitor , TUB BKH correspondent has received considerable Information about this gani : of range thieves nnd desperados. The bandits , savs Mi' . Paddock , after killing Weaver , took refuge In the Black Tail basin In the nUdst of the Owl mountains n basin which is tbo habitual haunt and headquarters of these robbers , lu this basin the gang still is and will bo nil winter , ns late heavy snow tails have blocked up Iho surrounding moun tain passes , thus snowing the thieves lu until next spring. The Black Tall basin , dorlvlng Us name from the largo numbers of black tall deer lound there , Is located on the sources of the Wood river , a stream flowing Inlo the Blir Horn. The basin Is both deep and wide , and on Its abundant pasturage tbo bandits are wintering between UO and 400 head of stolen horses and a few sto'cn ' cuttle , the latter being for table beef purposes only. . These outlaws have built m the basin a number of comfortable log dwelling houses and are said to have several of tbo softer and fairer sex with them to mitigate the Irk- s'omcn'ess of their mountain winter life. vTho Ratip numbers between II ft con and txvonty riders. Its captain is a young follow N named Stiydcr. This precocious criminal Is qnly Ul years of ace. ; IIo was born and bred on the Crow Indian reservation , near the bunks of thoClark's ForK" nnd Is half Crow , Uls mother bolug a full blood squaw of tbat tribe , a tact to which Suydor owes his local sobriquet of "Tho Crow Kid. " Snyder Is cunning , fnarlcss and actlvo , and is u born loader of men. For bis right baud man Snyder has a man named JucUson who is n ' brother of "Tlton" Jackson , the orst famous bandit lender of the Tlton mountains on tbo Wyoming and Idaho borders. These brothers.in fraternity and crlmo are sous ot old Abnc'r Jackson , once noted among tbo "moonshiners" of the Tennessee mountains. ' In the Black Tall basin gang JacKson is known familiarly as "Old Silver Tip , " from n real or fancied resemblance to the silver Up bear family , JacKsou being ot a low stature and massive frame and wearing shaciry masses of blacK balr and beard , plentifully flocked , with crav , or silver. The most ferocious aud sanguinary of the gang is a follow whoso only name Is ' 'Hod. " This man is described as of small mental capacity , but of giant stature urn ! strength. Ho loves tbo sbcddlne ot blood , and brought with him to the land the boast of having already slain four men. "Hea" Is popularly thought to bo the man who really slow Ranchman Weaver. Mr. Paddock thinks that with tbo molting of the mountain snows In thu coming spring tbo ranchmen of the concerned Wyoming and Montana borders , who are thoroughly exasperated over the murder \Voaver , will march on masse Into tbo Black Tall basin and kill the bandits in their mountain lair. MAY HAVE A NEW TRACK. Oinulni Horsi'men ' Look Toward Kuat Omaliu With Hope. "It all depends on what tbo supreme court ays , " replied Nat Brown when asked about the report , tbjit a number of thoihorsomon of tbe city intended to build a. milo track and .establish a driving park on tbo East Omaha Vbottoms , 1 "There is such n move on foot , " ho con tinued , "and if the supreme court decides that the laud is in Nebraska , tha plan will undoubtedly bo carried out If tbo track is built wo will Ret tbo state fair for ton years and the Nebraska Brooders' meetings for flvo years. The necessary grounds to accommodate tbom Is the only thing needed In order to got thoni. I bavo tulkcd with several of the members of both societies and they are favorably disposed , as the state fair stays at Lincoln only two years longer and the breeders are now in a row over a location. The grounds are cos } ' of access and the .motor company and railroads would run straight to Iho gates. " "What Is to become of the Council Bluffs track } " "That belongs to the brldgo line motor company. They got several Omaha men to take stock In'tho concern , but none of It was paid up. Tbo park Is handicapped by the Stewart management and wo wouldn't pay up as long as ho bad contra Tbat'muda a row and wo have all pulled ou and loft them to go It ulona. Omaha ough -to have a good track of har own. The Driv ing Park assocIati n'B now track is too tar out , and I don't believe it will over pay. It Is a natural amphitheater and folks can stand on tbo hills outside and see tbe races for two miles. Graded tracks llko tbat sel dom pay. It takes a constant outlay for ro- palra.llko a railroad grade. If East Omaba Is In Nebraska , It will soon have a track whore there will bo some tall racing meet ings , and folks will come mauy a inllo to see ou.o pretty purses won. " Athliitlu Ulult Notes. i The highest record made for pole vaulting was made last wceit by Gus Drexel , who cleared the nlno foot mark neatly. There Is a good deal of sprinting dona on the running track. Many of the heavy weights are reducing their flesh by dally Jog . Captain Nicholas aud his tug-of-war team are away out of sight. They train daily and claim to bo ublo to pull any team in Ne braska. Tbo now billiard and card rooms are nearly always crowded and the enlargement of tbo club house Is greatly appreciated by tbu members. Last Friday forenoon Captain Alford , tbo well known swordsman and Dr. Doipesohor , bad a bout for solontitla points , nud 'the cap tain won.
