HE BIDS SHERIFF COOLEY ADFEU
EARLY SUNDAY MORNING.
Escapes Through an Opening 6]@Nl3
Iuches-Oniccrs i'm Hot Pursuit.

David Hogwitz, alias Joseph Davis, one Of
the alleged horse thieves, escaped from jail
early on Sunday morning in manner that al
most challenges belief. The two men had
been placed in different cells, and not allowed
intercourse with each other, both being in the
second story of the jail. Immediately oppo-
site to the cell occupied by lcop, is the one
in which Joseph Coleman, Il colored prisoner
from iiavre de Grace is confined. In this cell
is the broken window bar. which bad been
sawed through by George 7. Sage, in his FIRST
effort to escape. The hole can nc seen from the
door OF ilorwitz cell, ana it WAS through this
narrow aperture, l6i inches by Is inches,
that the esq re was made. iloOn partly saw
ed an iron rod upon ais Aedsteai, and usiE--
piece of pine board as 4 lever, wrenched it OF.
With this as a tool, he forced the lock upon
his door, aud entering the corridor, released
Horwitz, and then broke the lock upon Cole
mans door. The latter was awakened aud
into silence. A neatly construct
ed rope, evidently the work of an adept, was
made from Hoon's blankets, and in some
manner Davis succeeded in fore
ing his body through the 81 square inches, and
dropping to the ground, disappeared. Hoou
made "A desperate attempt to follow his com
rade, but 1t was useless. In the meantime
the co.cred maI slipped ont Of the cell ard
picking up one OF the broken locks, closed
and fGsteacd the door am. EiooH found him
self again prisoner.
Deputy Sheriff W. J. ForsytEe, wno resides
at the Jail, arose abo-s seven o'clock and
finding that his hoster had not reported fl.
duty, went to the stable to do the feeding,
when he discovered the blanket rope dangling
from Tolenans window. Thinking that the
latter had escaped, he returned 10 the jail and.
having the door locked behind him, proceed
ed to make an Investigation. To his surprise
he found Coleman standing hy the stove in
the lower passage "Hctlo, WHAT are you
doing here" ne said to the negro. My G..
Mr.. Joe, lis to play in here This morning.

neighHorhood was soon full Of anxious i'll

his loss. The description given OF the
tracks of the wagon corresponds materially
with the manner in which the thieves who
stole the horse and jaggar from MIR Ilepneri in
New Jersey, acted. 1t is very probable that
it may have been the work of the same parties
in both cases. The bar of iron with which
Hoon broke the locks in the Jail was found
near the stable and returned to the Sheriff
1t is a positive link in the chain Of circum-
stances which mark HOrwitz as the thief The
real name of the latter has been ascertained to
be David Toker.
An attempt was made early Monday morn
ing to break open Mr. Howard Coles, stable
near Mr.. Winkler's, but the thief was fOIed
by Mr.. Coles dog. The rascal, however, struck
the dog with some weapon, causing him to
bleed. After daylight Mr.. Cole tracked the
man across a corner of his field to the public
road leading to Bel Air. Being wounded by
the dog the thief probably went to Mir.
Winklers stable where he remained hid
The tracks from Mr.. WnklU:'s stable were
made before the rain which commenced
shortly after eleven O'Clock Monday night.
