BOLD ATTEMPT TO BREAK JAIL

PROVIDENCE, R. l.. May A, 1894
''Spikern Murphy, the murderer of old
Waterman, Irons tried to escape from prison
yesterday. Murphy is the worst prisoner in
the institution, and with Jack Ryan and
others engineered the attempted escape In
which George Elwood, the "Masked
Burglar" was fatally shot. For their par
ticipation in that affair the law doubled
their original sentence, Ryan Row having
twenty years to serve.
Murphy arranged this time to have Ryan
make trouble In one of the shops, and to
bring about an order for him to report at
the Office for reprimand.
These two men had but recently come out
of solitary confinement for another and
similar revolt, and to prevent another
escape they were put at work in different
shops. By code Of signals they communi-
ranged for this break.
When Ryan made the row, that was to be
signal for general revolt, and dozen or
more prisoners were TO rush, for liberty.
Ryan made the first move Wednesday
night, but the shop officers had bean watch
ing him, and by sounding the long, roll on
the electric bells, called several prison at
was at once suppressed. Murphy deter.
mined not to be baked. He passed
"a note to another prisoner, IN
which he asked the latter, to secuse
him piece of wire and some shop tools,
with which he would cut his way out OF his
cell ard .hen lberate his pal. They were
then to overpower the watohman. taking
sary, the watchman was to be killed.
This plot was discovered through the
note. Murphy and Ryan will hereafter be
kept in solitary confinement.

because he wouldn't. He threatened to
