this afternoon destroyed the prison
department of the Indiana State Peni-
Tertiary, at Jeffersonville. All the
prisoners were saved from the burn

have escaped. The FIRE originated
from a defective fue, and at the time
it broke out high wind was blowing,
rendering it almost impossible to sub
due the flames; but By the assistance
of the engines from this side the fire
was extinguished before any of the
other buildings attached to the prison
were damaged.
