PRISONERS RIOTING.
Serious Outbreak in the Jail at BOston.
Mass

Boston, MASS, Aug. "A riot among
the prisoners in the jail occurred this after
noon and after some trouble was suppress
ed. After dinner the prisoners marched
back 10 the shops very quietly. but hardly
had they entered when a terrific and gen
eral veil broke out. Windows aud nlrni-
mrc were broken. and the men rushed INTO
the ward and the entire crowd dashed for
the various walls. The guards on the
fences fired at first tO terriiy the men, but
as several nearly gained the top OF The wall
the bullets were aimed 10 Kill. 1T
j.. however. thought that nobody was
seriously wounded. The officers with clubs
and pointed reyOlyers held the prisoners AT
bay tin renfDrccments arrived. Every
available man on the Boston police force Is
noM al the prison and fully three hundred
officers are massed in the yard and cOrri-
dors. The guard on the wall has
been more than trebled. and all are
armed with Winchester rifles, and have IN
structions to Kill any man who attempts 10
scale the walls.
No count has n vet been taken Of the
prisoners. but it j. known that many nave
not been returned 10 their cells. some oi
these are known 10 be- hiding in the wards
and workshops. and il Is thought that one
Dr two NAV have succeeded IN reaching the
outer world. C0rdons of police guard the
streets leading to the prison, and the gen
cral public, including repOr ers, are eN-
cluded.
I'M an interview with Warden Russell
tonight he said the fight was the most
serious that had taken place AT the prison Tor
many years. We expected trouble yester-
dav, and had the police in readiness should
any outbreak occur. This afternoon ne lelt
morally certain that the crisis was at hand,
and the police were in readiness for "A sum
mons. At o'clock it came from the
harness shop, where over one hundred
men were employed. Warden lussell
at once hurried to the shop, when
was in great confusion, ana caheu
upon those peaceably disposed to re-
tire 10 their cells. About seventy
i've men complied. The Others, however,
endeayored to reach the walls IN an al,
tempt TO escape. Captain taskns ana
fOrty-fiye officers now appeared, ana,
after short struggle, the prisoners were
gotten under lock and key. The warden
has seyenty-eight men locked IN strong cells
tonight. They will be kept on bread
and water until they express their
willingness to obey the rules of
the prison. During the confusion
in the harness-shOp ire was started by
some Of the prisoners. but was quickly eN-
