Jail.
Special DgPatsh % He Tatelligerer
CLAREsDuRG, W. Va, Oct. IA
wholesale jail delivery occurred a. the
county jail last night about o'clock.
The inii was occupied by thirteen pris-
oners, including WhelaelI, the murderer,
who vas sent up last week to await the
action oi the grand jury. The sheriff is
absent from town and the jail was lett
in charge OF a boy. All the prisoners
were allowed to stay in the corridor out
side the cages. Dave Russell. an insane
man, who had just been supplied by the
county with a new suit OF clothes, began
early in the evening to dig through the
outer brick wall with n poker, and in
fifteen minutes had made hole large
enough TO crawl through, and nothing
remained to prevent the escape OF the
bakers dozen. At the last minute the
majority waYered and nine, including
Whetzell and u number OF United
States prisoners refused to leave. Four
made bresk for liberty and up to The
present have noTbeen overhauled.
Those who escaped are the insane
man Russell, Frank Graves, jailed ior
assault, Vaughn Holmes, bartender at
a speak easy, who attempted to shoot n
deputy sheriff, and Bill Barnes, an old
offender, who was captured at the
Wheeling and Wilsonburg ball game
A resident OF the city in jail, on minor
charge, attempted to warn the jailor OF
the attempt to escape, but was deferred
through fear OF Holmes, who'll consider
ed desperate character. After they
were gone the jailor was informed just
in time to sec the last man escape, but
too late 10 catch them in the dark.

CHEAP EXCURSIONS TO The FAIR.
First Two of the Trunk Line Associa.
toms Trains Leave New York

First Two of the Trunk Line Associa-
tion's Trains Leave New York
NEW York, July 24.-The first two of
the Trunk Line Associations cheap ex-
Cursion trains left this city for Chicago
to-day. They were not crowded, but
the officials of the road said they were
quite agreeably surprised at the
number of passengers who availed
themselves of the reduced rates. 1t
was arranged by the passenger agents,
committee of the association that two
trains should leave on each of three
days of every week, beginning to-day
and that hereafter all the roads should
continue the series in pairs. When this
action was taken there were many
doubts among railway men, both of the
eXpediency and practicability of this
plan
1t WAS long deferred in the hope that
the Chicago passenger traffic would i'm
prove and make the reduction unneces-
sary. But while ordinary passenger
traffic between all points has been gen
orally good on most of the roads,
the Chicago traffic has not IN
creased in any proportion with
the expectations Of the railroad officials.
Thus trains, which began journey for
about $40 people to-day, started an eX-
pertinent III which railroad men are tax
ing no small interest.
AS the people gathered on the plat
form the officials showed their pleas
Ure at the class who made the in
ltlal experiment. 1t was feared
that immigrants would take advant-
tage of the low rates and I'M
usual privileges. But none applied on
the Erie road and the Baltimore
u Ohio trainmen have orders not
to let them aboard and tickets will not
knowingly be sold to them. The pur-
pose, Of course, of these trains is to- call
out new business and every effort is
to be made not to cut into this class Of
traffic on any other trains, first or emil
grant class.
The Erie train had nine cars. eight
actly 2l5 people were aboard, but many
more are to join it before it
gets to Chicago. Of the 215
The men aboard seemed to be clerks.
All seemed to realize that they were of
q party and made acquaintance as soon
as possible. An excursion agent was III
charge His passengers, he said, were
in small groups or family parties and not
IN large parties. There were DO lunch
baskets, although they were not pro-
hibited.
Stops are to be made at Port Jeryis,
HOrnellsville and Marion Junction and
a big dinner is to be had at Huntington,
Ind. The stops will be from twenty to
twenty-five minutes according to the
importance of the meal
