hit th. re was plenty of help at

Foster among the guards h said
'hat he was willing to sum-rdi r the

other guns nor Implements of aaj

to ( it ivldiiic.- of any irxniii.eil

to inaki- the escape- So far as the
evldojifc goes It seems that the woik
waa all by Frank SitIImmt. though '
If ho had succeeded In forcing tile
guard to open tho cage It Is likely ,
that every prlooner would have iiiiuih
a break for liberty.
Thp iiiieatlon now to !. answered
waa: Where did Scrlbner got the
ini?
Il waa found that Iip had iiinde
tiae of a mop slick and aotup sticks '
that had Iipiii given the pitnonera
to fix their biuika with, llelna thpin
logotlier to makt a long pole. h.
one end of this polo he had u-id"
a ImhiV with a mill, lie also had In
his iMSMosslon a small hand mirror.
One end of the corridor l nit off
and makes n siutiil IkhI room nbon
flo by eight feet lu also and In Ihla
little room Is a cot on which .? '
guard ale. p at times. I'mler this
cot several guns are usually kept, '
loaded and ready for nae.
From the cage lu which the pna-
oners ar kept It la poaalbh- to sev '
Into this room from wo Klnts. one
through the main door of the pagp
acroaa a corner of tho front cor
ridor and the other from the aim
of the cage across a corner of fne
narrow side corridor and through
the door In the end of the little room.
It waa Horn Ihla latter point that
.Scrllnii'i- secured the gun. 1
With his hand mirror he reflected
the light in such a way as to make
It easy to aee the gun and with his
Impiovlsed pole he reached across
the corner of te corridor, a distance
of five or six foot, and pulled tho
Kim from under the hud.
The guns kept under the bed are
the property of the county and are
for the use of the guards.
The Jail officers think that the
gun wns secured about two or three
hours before tho nttcnipted delivery,
but thoy state that It may have been
secured earlier lu the day.
t'liderslierlf f Miles states that
though the Jail Is full of prisoners
and they make a lot or noise lu a
r.ood uutuiod sort of way they are
lospectful and submissive. There has
been no apparent 111 feeling anion
thorn on account of the incident of
Saturday night and no Indication in
any farther trouble.
Mr. .Milt says that after his fui'
urn n escape Scrlbner seemed to be
xery despondent. He think he was
desperate enough to have gone tn
any length In order to have escaped
mil but for the shrewdness o.' the
guard under the mrat trying clrcuiu
