HOTEL THIEF TRIES TO ESCAPE.

and steals Her Keys.


BELVIDERE, April 12,, 1SS5EWiHiam
Leahy, alias Barry, a notorious hotel
thief, who was arrested at Elizabeth
about two weeks ago and brought here,
almost escaped from the Warren County
jail yesterday.
Leahy had the run of the corridor and
he hid himself behind a door just as a
young woman domestic employed by the
Sheriff entered the corridor to bring food
to one of the prisoners. He o~verpowered
her. He placed his hand over her mouth
and then procured the keys from her
pocket.
Leahy unlocked the door leading from
the corridor, and after passing out locked
the door again, preventing the escape
of any of the other prisoners. Andrews,
the colored condemned wife murderer,
found the woman IN a fainting condi-
ton and managed to raise an cutlery.
Leahy was followed to the river and
rpcafJtured. E

the undersigned can arrange with New
ark or otherwise for this supply, this
company will permit the use of the main
for its delivery upon satisfactory terms.
From all we can learn their supply waters
are not sufficient to adequately supply
the city in the interim. The balance
would have to be obtained from the Pas
sale, as at present. AS the specifications
published by YOU honorable body;
not call for a temporary supply, We
made no provision therefor in our bid,
and did not suppose that the city would
consider the question of a temporary
supply until a permanent supply had been
arranged for. Arrangements ought easily
to be made for the surplus of the New
ark supply when the contract for a per-
manent supply has been awarded, 4 Il
method provided for it's delivery across
the Passaic River. In the meantime We
would push the Construction of our main
supply, and believe that a permanent
supply can be turned on for the use of
the city before the first day of July,
1896, although all of the auxiliary works
and reservoirs could not be fully COM
pleted until a later date.
