Jail Delivery.

Nashville, Jan. "A. J. +. Roddy.
Andrew Winters, George Alexander and
C. ID. Kiger, held for murder, and con-
fined in the county Jail, made their es-
cape last night by saving the bars.
The escape was effected some time be-
tween 0 o'clock last night and o'clock
this morning. 1t is supposed that Win
ters, who was entrusted with the keys
to the cage, released the other men dur
ing the night, and with the aid OF a saw
furnished by friends on the outside they
were enabled to saw the bolts Of the fire
escape door.
Roddy was charged with the murder
of Deputy United States Marshal Smith
at Tracy City; Alexander with killing
two men In Lincoln County; Kiger was
recently convicted of the murder OF
Buck Smith in Rutherford County, and
Winters was awaiting trial on the charge
of killing a toll-gate keeper in David
son County,
There is great indignation over the
escape of the men. The United States
officials are very greatly wrought up
over the escape Of Roddy, The govern
ment will, it is said, bring suit against
Sheriff Sharp's bondsmen unless he
catches Roddy. Roddy left two letters
to Turnkey Moran, expressing groat ad-
and love for him. The general
is that there was gross care
lessnesS somewhere.

Fonnd Dead.

Knoxville, Jan. "A hunting party
today discovered the body of William
Schneider, well-known young man OF
Knoxville, lying in an old field four
miles from the city. He was lying face
downward and his body was covered
with snow, and while there is some sus-
picion OF foul play, it is generally be-
lieved that he was frozen to death. The
last seen of Schneider alive was when
he was on spree and was put off an
electric car in the opposite direction
from the city from which he lived, and
the general supposition is that he got
lost and attempted to walk across some
fields to his home. The field he was
found in is small ono and Is entirely
enclosed with wire fence. On his face
arc several cuts as il made by barb wire,
indicating that in his helpless condi-
tion he got into the field and could not
get out, and simply wandered around
until overcome by cold and went TO
sleep, from which he never awoke.
