TO ESCAPE Baked
MILITIAMEN ON GUARD CAUSED
THEM TO TURN
BACK.
Twelve Men in the Nebraska Peniten-
tiary Cut Their Way to the Roof,
Hoping to Escape Owing to Con-
ditions Following a Fire.

LINCOLN, Neb., March 16.-Only
the presence of the Nebraska militia
men on guard at the state penitentiary
prevented the escape of twelve CON
victs from that institution Mounting
from the floor of the cell house to the
roof through ventilator fiue, after
first saving through an iron grating
and big iron bars at the lower end,
the twelve prisoners looked over the
top edge of the front wall down to
the road below. only to see four vigil
ant guardsen patrolling ceaselessly
along the front of the building. Tho
the criminals had rope enough to
lower themselves to the ground, they
did not dare risk a meeting with the
militiamen. and, cowed from the &C
complishment of their purpose, they
huddled down together in the great
drain trough along the edge of the
roof, just behind the abutting wall.
and lay there shivering. some with
out shoes, others only in their under
clothing. until they were discovered
by Deputy Warden Bowers in the NOR
ming and marched down to the dark
dungeons below.
The cell from which the attempt
was made is the only portion of the
penitentiary which was not destroyed
by the fire of two weeks ago. ? II is

These are ranged along the wall in

which they have been carrying on at
night ever since the fire and intended
to eliminate last night.

planned, cut the heavy iron grating
over the fiue opening and then thro'
steel bars further up. The men took
a quantity OF rope from the broom fac
tory and worked up forty-ive feet to
the top OF the ventilator tower. They
dropped to the roof, but feared to face
the soldiers. having supposed that no
watch. or very loose one. was kept.
At roll-call in the morning the absen-
tees were discovered and later found
