ESCAPE OF PKIsoNRRs.-They have nc
capital punishment for murder in Michi.
gan. but sentence all convicted Of that
crime to State Prison rifle. On Monday
night last FIVE prisoners sentenced for life
for the crime of murder, escaped from the
State prison of Jackson in that State.
They effected their escape as follows
The life prisoners are confined in one
tier Of cells, apart from other convicts, and
these prisoners occupied cells adjoining
each other--the one occupied by Gabriel
being in the middle. A large pipe runs
through the back end of the cells, and the
prisoners dug through the walls around
this pipe, all entering Gabriels cell In
the back of each cell is a small window,
only four inches wide, and high up from
the floor, with cast iron fanges all around
it on the inside. The hanges were broken
off, and the window frame dug out of the
wall, thus forming an aperture through
which they could escape into the yard,
and once into the yard they could easily
scale the outside wall and make good their
escape.
Handbills have been issued Offering
reward of 81 GOO for their arrest and re-
turn, or $500 for any one of them.
