Hoon Tries to Break Jail.

Ada1of Hoon was removed from Be1air
Jail to the penitentiary last Wednesday,
on an order of court signed by Judge
Waters under fifteen years sentence for
horse stealing. For the past five days
Hoon had been trying to escape from Jail,
and had expected to succeed in regaining
his liberty Tuesday evening. He obtained
possession of a saw, with which he had
cut the bars of his cell, being assisted in
the work, it is reported, by David Toney,
who sang while Hoon sawed to drown
the noise. Tuesday. Toney weakened
and told that Hoon had cut the bars of
his cell door and was about to attempt his
escape by knocking down the attendant
who should bring in the evening meal
and go out the door which would be open
behind him. Toney was handcuffed to
Hoon and taken to the penitentiary for
two years.
On reaching the penitentiary Hoon was
shaved and dressed in the prison garb
and will be assigned to operate machine
in the shoe shop. Detectives from New
Jersey are trying to induce Hoon to talk.

paper which is anxious to make

which deserves to be placed in
quotation marks, as a thing of the
past, concludes its weekly review
of trade, prices and prospects fol
business, in the following melan'
choly strain for the week of Nc
Kinley's Inauguration.
"In short, there were very few
alterations in price, but everything
is held in way to show that
people think a rise is near. II
the stock market such advance as
was made was lost by the decline
at the end of the week.
''ln general, while prices are
everywhere low and believed to be
near an advance, there has not
anywhere been the increase in sub
stantive demand which is needed
to move prices upward. Nor has
there been sufficient activity in
business, either, to advance the ag-
gregate of clearings or raise the
rate for money"
In substance this photograph Of
the condition of affairs has beer
repeated with little if any variation
for months. Theplain unvarnished
truth is, there is not money power
sufficient to move the immense load
of business of the country which is
twice to three times greater than
that of any other country in thu
world, The money power has go

A Large Gun.

State game detective David G.
Smart went to Chase Station in
Baltimore county, one day last week
to catch parties there who are said
to be using big guns at the mouth
OF Gunpowder river which is a
violation of the law. These guns
are ten and twelve feet long and
use half a pound of shot to a load.
The detective was told that a man
named Williams living at Hogg
Point on Hartford county side OF
Gunpowder river had one in his
possession. He went to Magnolia
and obtained asearch warrant for the
mans house. When he and a COM
paniOn reached the house they were
met at the door by the wife. The
officer read the warrant to her and
tried to enter the house, but she
refused to allow them to enter. 1t
required the strength of both men
to get in. They found the gun
back in a corner and covered
Placing the gun on their shoulders
they went back to the Magistrate's
Office and swOre out warrant for
the arrest of Williams. The gun
somewhat resembles a small cannon

Recaptured.

William Montgomery the colored
man who escaped from Elkton Jail
on Saturday previous with two
other prisoners, was captured by
Sheriff Mackey the following Thurs
day of last week. The sheriff got
word from near Media, Pa, that
Montgomery was in that place.
He started Immediately and was in
luck by coming up with his man
on the road a few miles from the
place where he had watched for
him all night. When Montgomery
saw the sheriff he attempted to
escape by running, but was no
match for the long legged sheriff
who soon brought the negro to a
halt with a revolver, and landed
him back in Jail.
