Show THE FADE FOUR helpiin following, taken from the files of the Eastern Utah Advocate tells of the robbery of the Springville bank in whirh one C. L Maxwell, late of Priee, was a participant and was supposed to have been committed 4y Robbers Roosters. Maxwell later met his death in Price nt the bauds of Ed Johnstone. The Springville bank was robbed of $302(1 early Saturday morning by members of the Robbers Roost gang. One of the rubbers was killed by members of a pursuing jknmo and the other surrendered. A number of the posse, J, W. Allen, was shut through the tbigb and has since had his leg amputated. The men entered the bank about 10 o'clock and presented nil order for $200 to, tho bookkeeper, as the cashier had just stepped out. While conversing in regard to the order, tho bookkeeper hod turned away, bullying himself with office work. Whilo ho was doing this one of the men said: Look here young man. Ho turned at unee and the two hnd their guns on him and ordered him to throw up his hands. The roliber that was killed stayed at the tellers window where they were standing, and kept the bookkeeper covered with his gun, whilo the other walked around into the tellers quarters and proceeded at once to put all the visible eash into a handkerchief. While doing so he droped a stack of $20 gold pieces, and while picking them up the bookkeeper lowered his right hand to an alarm button and touched it. Tho alarm is connected with Reynolds Store across the street. Mr. Reynolds heard the alarm, but thinking it might have been discharged accidentally he went to the telephone and called tip the bank, reiving no reply he grabbed two Winchesters and rnshed out of the store; the roUbers had just gone but be saw them turn the corner to the east, one block sonth. After securing all the loose money, whieh amounted to $3020, they backed out of the bank, still holding their guns on the bookkeeper. They jumped in a buggy which they had left near by nnd drove east for Hobble Creek canyon. Mr. Reynolds leaped into a limiter wagon that was standing at the bank corner and started in pursuit. The news of the robbery spread, and in a .short timo nearly half the town was out after the men. The desperadoes, near the edge of town, met a man riding a fine horse and eompellcd him to dismount, threw $WJ down in front of the man and rode away, while the other continued with the buggy. The delay in getting the horse brought Reynolds within about 150 yards of the fugitives, and he fired two shots at them without effect. By this timo a number of horsemen caught up, and the robbers, seeing their pursuers gaining upon them and with their horses nearly exhausted, leaped from the buggy and took to the brush, then being in the mouth of Hobble Creek canyon. The brush is very thick and very difficult to get through, so that further pursuit was at once cheeked for the time. In less than twenty minutes over a hundred horsemen were on the ground, and the patch of brush was surrounded so completely that escape was impossible. At this time, Joseph W. Allen proposed that a line of men be formed and march through the 'brush. In a short time the plan was being carried into effect, and after repeatedly passing through tho brush, one of the party while crawling on his hands and knees, saw ona of the roblicrs within a few feet covered with leaves and rubbish, and a request to snrrwider was immediately obryed by. the robber. The other desperado was found pretty soon and he commenced firing as soon as he saw he was surrounded. One shot from his revolver struck Allen nbnve the knee, knocking him to the ground, and in this position, ho took deliberate aim, Bred and killed the robber instantly. Tho robber taken alive was none other than CL L Maxwell, who formerly resided in Price, and who took mneh pleasure in terrorizing I rice people. Maxwell had $20832)0 on his person. About $300 was picked np in the brush, leaving $000 unaccounted for. Maxvell was lodged in jail at Provo, where he now languishes. The other bandit so far has not been recognized. of June Bntered As Second - Clnia Mail Matter, Juno 4. 11)15, At the rootoffieo At Price, Utah, Under the Act of March A 1871).
