Nine Desperate Men Escape from Mas
saohusetts State Prison.
BOSTON, July 9.-Nine desperate, dare
devil convicts of the state prison at Charles
town gained their liberty yesterday after
noon by one of the cleverest methods
known in the history of escapes from
penal institutions. 1t all looks simple and
plain enough now that these men have
shown the way, and another weak spot
will have to be strengthened. OF the nine
who escaped but one has been captured
Felix Golding-who was returned shortly
after o'clock.
The prisoners dropped into the sewer
from the "bucket dump" in the southeast
corner of the yard, and crawled fully 800
feet to the mouth of the. aperture which
empties into the dock within forty feet or
Drawtender Storey's house alongside the
tracks of the Eastern division of the Bos-
ton and Maine railroad.
Boston, July 11.-John Booth is again

Frazier, was marched back to his cell.
Dennis O'Hearn and Daniel Coffey are
again behind the prison bars at Charles
town, having been captured Saturday
by Detectives Shields and Lynch. The de-
tectives received information that o. Hearn

A PROOF OF MURDER.
JOSIAH WA6ON'S EYE WAS NEARLY
GOUGED OUT.

Joseph Garland, Over 20 Years of Age,
is Suspected of the Crime, and He
lis Lisely to BE Arrested.
HAMPTON, n. H., July u. The cause
of Josiah Wason's death is no longer a
mystery, but whence and how it came has
not yet been told. Underneath the left
eye, exceeding to the temple, was noticed,
when the body was found, a deep, jagged
wound To that, the doctors give it as
their opinion, was due the death of the old
man Eotof itself alone, however. Con-
gestion Of the brain is what death certi-
fcate might say. But this would be the
addenda: The result of wounding inflicted
by dull instrument, and following ex-
posure and lack of care
With this cause of death unveiled, and
the assurance that murder has been done
there, promise as developments some re-
markable features for even a mysterious
killing affair. Already a man is under
surveillance, and, although no arrest is
yet to be made, there is little danger that
he will escape the eyes of his guardian.
The name of this man is Joseph Gar
land, and the people of the town openly
declare that they think he is a murderer,
but the officers do not deem it advisable
yet to place him behind bars. He has
passed the thretseore and ten mark, and
there is little danger of his getting away
from the one who watches lima tall,
guant female, who acts as housekeeper
where he lives. She has had orders to i'm
mediately notify the officers if he leaves
the house, but she intimated that before
he does that he must 20 by her without

General Snowden ordered that a whole,

THE ALMY CASE.
A Days Argument aud an Adjournment
Till July 20.

CONCORD, N. H., July l3.-The case OF
Almy was taken up in the supreme court
full bench, yesterday, and argued upoI
the question of the constitutionality OF
the trial of the respondent by the court,
instead of by jury. In opening for Almy,
Mr.. urlegh discussed the plea of guilty
made by the prisoner, and it's relation to
the present case.
The plea of guilty. he claimed, does not
mean a plea of guilty in the first degree.
The court cannot assume that the plea
WAS gailty in the first degree. That must
be decided by a fair and regular trial. In
his plea of guilty the prisoner did not
waive the tribunal by which the case must
be tried.
Attorney General Eastman for the state
said that murder was admitted. There
was no legal defect in the trial Of Almy.
No question of jurisdiction was raised
when the case was left to the court. The
nature of the sentence alone had Influenced
the prisoners counsel.
The court adjourned till July 49,
