AN INVESTIGATION NEEDED,

The escape OF two condemned muir
derers from Sing Sing demands q
very thorough investigation. The stories
told by the two keepers whom the pris-
oners overpowered and locked up in
cells. besides being conflicting are highly
improbable. According to one account
the first keeper had n handful OF pepper
thrown into his eyes while giving one
Of the men his supper. Where did the
pepper come from? Another account
Is that after supper he opened the pris.
oner's cell to hand him in bowl OF
milk and was then gently knocked down
and deprived Of his keys and revolver.
The whole story is Of a suspicious
character. Keepers do not open the
cells Of condemned murderers to hand
In milk whenever they are asked tc
do SO. Two keepers are not easily
locked up In cells without the two guards
on duty hearing any outcry.
At all events the four men have proved
themselves unfit for tho position OF
keepers and guards. both through care

President and Secretary Lamont are

gard a bond issue as the shortest and

sary.
