PRISONERS
Three Dsspsradoes in Kentucky psnitsntiary
Attempt TO Gain Liberty-..A -Four
Hours Riot.
ONE IS FATALLY WOUNDED
They DIsarm Two Guards and Barrcade Themselves
Sixty Men Surround the Building and Force
Surrender-A Convict Forced Into
Service Is Shot.

Frankfort, KY, Aug. 20.-The Off
cials of the state penitentiary and tn
citizens of Frankfort were thrown intt
a state of wild excitement today py
riot in the prison started by an attemp
of the three desperate murderers, La
fayette Brooks, Wallace Bishop, ano
II. Mulligan, to gain their liberty. BE-
fore the riot, which began at O'Clock
and lasted until after 10, was .queEed
and the mutinous convicts captured
Rishop was fatally wounded and Null
ligan was shot in the shoulder, and a
negro convict, Albert Ransome OF
Louisville, whom the desperadoes had
pressed into service, was hit by rifle
ball. AS Brooks Mulligan and Bishop
were coming out of the dining room to
answer hospital call, one OF them
drew revolver compelled the guard,
A. H. Gill, to give up his arms. Guard
F. F. Hurst was also captured. Cap
tain Madigan, acting warden, rushed
forward, firing on the bunch but no
one was hit. The convicts, then run
ming across the yard to the chair fac
tory, captured Charles Willis, foreman.
They stood Willis at a window and
Brooks, with a revolver in his hand,
took position just beside the captive,
resting the muzzle of his weapon on
Willis, shoulder. The convicts then
defied Warden Lilliard to attempt to
capture them, shouting that they
would kill the foreman at the first
move made against them. BY this time
several hundred citizens, many heavi-
ly armed, gathered at the prison gates,
but the warden denied admission to
them all. He placed a guard of 60 men
around the building in which the des
peradoes had barrfcaded themselves,
and called on them to surrender. The
convicts only reply was a taunt. James
Buckley, former city work house keep
er, and Morgan Brewer, former
guard of the penitentiary climbed to
the roof of a residence overlooking the
building in which the convicts had ta-
ken refuge and fired several shots into
the room where the desperadoes were
in trenched. Thy were compelled to
desist however as Foreman Willis was
forced to the window in the line of
fire. He called to the men to stop
shooting and informed them that ne
gro convict, whom the desperadoes had
forced into service, had been shot in
the shoulder. Finally the men agreed
to surrender. AS they came down the
stairway, Bishop dropped his hand to
his side as if to draw a weapon. One
of the wardens party fired, the bullet
striking Bishop in the breast, inflicting
fatal wound. The other two despera-
does were placed in their cells Then it
was discovered that Mulligan had been
wounded in the shoulder, though not
seriously hurt.
Later developments show that Ran
some. the negro, who was shot, was
not pressed into service by the desper-
ADDE'S, but had Joined them after they
had entered the rocker department.
Brooks, Bishop and Mulligan are
among the most desperate of the $500
cOnyictS confined here
