PLOT IN MILITARY PRISON
Inmates Had Planned General Jail Deliv-
cry.

CHICAGO. August 2l.-Hidden in the
clothing of one of the prisoners at the
Fort Sheridan guard house yesterday was
found the key to the post magazine On
other prisoners the officers investigating a
supposed Jail delivery plot discovered
razors, knives. powder and cartridges, and
further examination disclosed the fact that
the three upright bars in the window of
the guard house had been sawed through
and the two. horizontal bars had been
sawed until a little force would break
them
The forty-two prisoners in the guard
house would have found it an easy matter
to obtain their liberty. The officers are
satisfied that but for the escape of Private
Miller on Saturday. the plot to free the
men would have been put into execution
that night.
IL is supposed the prisoners secured the
magazine Key in the hope that the guards
