Matteawan, n. Y, April 14.-Patrick Ma-
guire and Michael o'DonnelI, two Of the
five convicts who escaped from The Nat
teasran Asylum last Wednesday, We're cap
tured at Pine Plains to-day by Attendant
James Coyle OF the as YUM.
This leaves only Perry, for whose arrest a
reward of s2,250 is offered, and Davis,
who is said to be even more desperate and
daring than tie former, stin at liberty.
When Superintendent Allison learned last
night that Perry had broken into n house
at Houghsonyille, on Thursday night, and
stolen a quantity of wearing apparel, he
at once dispatched attendants to all i'm
portant points north of here, thinking the
train robber. and perhaps also his pals
had gone in that direction.
Attendant CoyIe, who, with two others,
had been at Danbury, was directed to pro-
ceed to Pine Plains, which is forty miles
northeast OF this place at the junction of
the Newburgh, Dutehess and Connecticut
and the Philadelphia, Reading and New
England railroads.
DISCOVERED BY CHANCE.
Coyle arrived at Pine Plains last night
and stopped at the hotel. Having break
tasted this morning he went to the station
and was about to buy a morning paper
from a newsboy when he chanced to look
down the track.
He saw mans head protruding from an
empty hay car about fifty yards from where
he stood. The head disappeared, but not
before Coyle recognized the man as O'Don-
nell. Going to the open car door he fired
a shot from his revolver at random into the
car.
As he did so, another man whom he rec
ogniZed as Mcguire jumped out through the
opposite doorway.
Coyle then stepped into the car and ar
rested O'Donnell, who was crouchiDg in O.
corner, too broken down to offer resistance.
Coyle pull ed the convict out of the car
and took him to the station, leaving him in
the custody of two boys, while he started
down the track in pursuit Of Mcguire, who
had by this time got quite a start of him.
Coyle gained on the tired convict for about
half a mile and fired another shot. He
would have overtaken him but for curve
In the track, on account Of which Mcguire
was lost sight OF.
CAUGHT IN THE WOODS.
AS soon as be rounded the curve the fugi-
tive took to the woods which border the
track on both Sides The pistol shot had
attracted crowd of boys who joined in the,
chase, aud this posse finally found the
| convict standing in an open field on the
| border OF the wood in defiant attitude.
| Coyle started after him, firing O third
| shot.

me dead,' Mcguire yelled defiantly.
''Iil do that" replied Coyle, coming

The racing men and tournament pro-
n oters in the League Of American Wheel
n-en have urged the racing board OF that
organization to create the office CT eff
cial referee to act-St all the national Cir
cult race meets. EX-Chairman Raymond,
of the racing board, suggested the ap-
pointn ent of such an official, and the
present racing board has the n after un-
der consideration. and many men have
been suggested foF'T Tkfs~ rev office, but
Chairman Gideon. of the racing hoard, is
said to have in view the appointment OF
Frederick jenkins, of New Rochelle. Jen-
kins is an old-tine wheeIman. he has
been identified with the League OF An eri-
can Wheelmen since its organization, and
has held a nun ber OF prominent offices
of the league which viii fit him well TO
fill the. position of official referee He
was at one time chairman OF the l.. \. w.
Racing Roard and ass secretary of the
organization.
While not taking an active interest in
cycling in recent years, Mr.. Jenklns has
been close follower of the L. A. w, and
his carly eXperience-wdB tlss racing de-
partment, his friends think, Will make him
an admirable man for the office of Of
fetal referee.
Throughout last season frequent dis
turbances took place on the national cir
cult races between tine class b racing men
aud the officials, through the latter's
rulings, and as a result the racing men
this season have advocated the selection
of an official referee in order that COM
petent nan will offic;ate at aIl the race
meets The idea has been approved of in
all sections, and it seems very likely that
such an office viii lie. created.
