The Washington correspondent of the Springfield Republican says concerning the escape of Captain Howgate: No doubt ap- pears to be entertained by any one that the flight of the notorious embezzler and crimi- nal was carefully prearranged. The officers of the law have all along known perfectly well that Howgate has many personal friends both in and out of office in this city, some of whom have reason to aid him ip escaping, and yet in the face of this fact he has from the first moment of his arrest been allowed extraordinary liberties. Persons in 8 posi- ton to be well informed in the matter have from the beginning insisted that Howgate had official aceomplices in his rasealities and rob bery and that fair trial would smoke out his pals, but the free and easy way in which crimes like those of Howgate are regarded here by many is well illustrated by the re- mark of a local paper to the effect that the sympathy of the public seems to be largely in favor of Capt. Howgate.'

charge OF having burglarizsd the house OF

against him, and certain sentence TO years

to waylay Jailor Davis as soon us he rot into

His plan was 10 watch when the TAILOR came
into the corridor, md then walk up behind
him and knock him down, break the doors

Of the Tomas, which attracted bis attention,
and he looked out and saw boat ascending
the river, apparently nearer The Virginia
shore. lie heard her give two blasts, after o
delay that lie believed was longer than

lance between the two boats had been closed
by the time the other boat answered. z Tie
boats seemed to be good distance apart,
from 100 TO 800 yards. The Tomas had passed
several other boats that day, and he thought
the whistle In this case was given at about
the same distance as In the Others. When
the Tomas signalled he thought the Scioio
was parallel with the Virginia shore, md
nearer that shore than tho other. When the
Scloto answered she was nearer tho Ohio
shore. lie heard bells ring OH tho tonias,
but did not know whit they were
for. One bell rang before the Lomas

at each other, until Just before they struck,
when the witness thought the Scloto turned
u little toward the Virginia shore. The boats
camc together very hard, and things were
thrown around good deal on tho cabin floor
OF the Tomas. The Tomas hu,l decidedly re-
