THE WORLDS FAIR,

A DANGEROUS SMOKES TACK.
WORLDS FAIR GROUNDS, July 10
When the national commission assem-
bled today Commissioner Turnbuil of
Florida rose and said he had ju-t come
from the agricultural building. He
had seen smokestack which passed
up through the roof and which came
in contact with woodwork. The wood
work, no said, was so hot that he
could scarcely hold his hand on it. A
committee was appointed to wait upon
Director General Davis and notify
him of the impending danger of fire in
the Agricultural building. The COM
nit lee proceeded to act and reported
that the director general had sent an
official to remove the cause of danger.
FEELS THE CRITICISM.
Director of Works, d. HI. Burnham
feels deeply the blame imposed upon
him by the coroner's jlry for the
Worlds Fair fire. He says: mo one
ever called my attention to the imper-
lection of the smoke fiue until after
the destructive fire, and after said fire
occurred. 1 had all the correspond
ence in my Office thoroughly examin-
ed, but no communication upon the
subject could be found"

TOOK FRENCH LEAVE.
Five Female Convicts Escape From Geor-
gia Camp and Elude Pursuit

ATLANTA, July 10 Five female con-
victs have escaped from Maddox's
camp in the last three weeks and the
rest of the 60 prisoners there are de-
moralized. The camp is situated in
Ebert county, near the Savannah
river. All the female convicts are sent
to this place. Two of the women ran
away while working in the fields. One
of them had been serving a life sen =
tence for murder. They were tracked
to the river by dogs, where all trace of
them was lost. Three other women
escaped by prying up boards in the
floor. One of these convicts was an 10
year old colored girl, sentenced to life
Imprisonment. These women were
al~o tracked by dogs as far as the
river. All of these who escaped nave
worked at polling flatboats on the
river and it is thought that friends
outside the camp must have aided
them by securing boats which the
women could easily navigate.

NOVEL LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.
Indian Territory and Texas Criminals Seek
Release by Habeas Corpus Proceedings.

ANAMosA, Iowa, July 2O.-Two pris-
oners named Boher and Labe, sent
enced in the United States court in
the Indian Territory last June to one
year in the penitentiary here for cattle
stealing, have begun habeas corpus
proceedings, demanding release, alleg-
ing that the judgment in the Indian
Territoryis void, because it sentenced
then to imprisonment outside the dis
trict in which they were convicted.
There are about 90 government pris-
oners confined here, all of whom can
secure release ON the same grounds If
the petition holds good. Among the
number are some CARA revolutionists
who will try to escape the hangman in
Mexico by suing out writs of habeas
corpus, and when released resist ex-
tradition on the ground that they
could not be held unlawfully on one
charge that they might be extradited
on another.
