ESCAPE OF Poss AND HENRY.-A
telegraphic dispatch was received by
Chief of Police Webster of this city
from Fairfax Courthouse at an early
hour this morning announcing that
Harry Poss, Thomas Henry and A. j.
Wheaton, white, and Cassius Page, COL
Ored, had escaped from the Jail in that
place during the night. No particu.
lars were given, though it is believed
by many people in this city that the
delivery was through the aid of outside
parties. AS is we'll known to all who
have examined it, the Fairfax Jail is
regarded as one of the most invulner-
able in the State, being modern in all
its appointments. 1t is Jail within a
Jail. In other words the receptacle
for the prisoners is an iron cage built
within the solid walls of the Jail struc-
ture. The bars of the cage are so close
together that it is difficult q few feet
away to identity prisoner inside. The
walls without are massive and the win
dows are heavily barred. Poss and
Henry, rs is we'll known, had been SEN
fenced TO nine years in the peniten-
tiary for assault and highway robbery.
Both are natives of this city. About
three o'clock this afternoon the follow
ING dispatch was received from the
Courthouse. The telephone wires
were down, supposed to have been cut
by the prisoners or some of their con-
iederates:
FAIRFAX c. H., Va, Mar. 10.
Four prisoners escaped from Jail
about half.psst two o'clock last night
Poss and Henry. under sentence for
highway robbery; A. ]. Wheaton, in
dcted for housebreaking, and negro

who is an itinerant clock repairer, IN
locked the door of the cell with piece
Of wire and they then dug hole
through the brick wall. The other
prisoners refused to leave, but were
threatened if they made an cutlery.
The parties are supposed to have gone
IN the direction of Afexandria and to
nave had persons here with vehicles to
aid their escape.
