Three Desperadoes Escape From the Jail
at Waseca.

WASECA, Mimi, Oct. S.-After lying in
the jail in this city for sixty days, Mike
Tobin and John Mcdonald, serving
and John Price, awaiting the action of
the grand jury on the charge of assault
ing Sheriff Collins with dangerous
weapon, broke jail this morning and are
now at liberty with a posse securing the
county for them. A reward of 5000 for
their capture has been offered by Sheriff
Collins, and descriptions of the men are
being sent to all surrounding cities.
The three men are the desperadOes who
We're arrested here in August after an

In some way the men became aware of
the effort which would be made by other
authorities to get them, hence their des-
perate break for liberty. By means of

means of outside help conveying the saws

the steel plating Of one of the cells, and,
burrowing through the brick wall of the

is but little clue. and it is unlikely that
the men will be recaptured.

Soldiers All There.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Oct. S.-The en-
tire national guard Of Pennsylvania is en-
camped tonight in the anthracite coal re-
gions, the last regiment from the western
part of the state having arrived late this
afternoon. Contrary to expectations, the
troops were well received, and there was
no disposition on the part Of the strikers
to annoy the soldiers. There was only
one instance during the day of any show
OF feeling, and this was manifest at Beth
lehem, when some boys stoned the second
section of the train bearing the First reg1-
iment from Philadelphia. Universal quiet
reigns throughout the entire region to-
night. The soldiers who arrived today
were all scattered throughout the Schuyl-
kill, Luzerne, Carbon and Northumber-
land counties.
The fact that all of the locals through
out the anthracite region have voted
unanimously to continue the strike would
indicate the presence of the troops will
have but little effect upon forcing the men
to return to work. and from present In
dications the settlement Of the strike is
no nearer solution than it has been for
many weeks.

BoIEs OPENS HIS CAMPAIGN.
Iowa's Ex-Governor Discusses the Trusts
With Vigor.

Special to The Globe.
WINTHROP, Iowa, Oct S.-Former
Gov. Horace Boies began his campaign
for congress in the Third district tonight
with a strong declaration of the position
of the Democrats of the state on the
trust issue. He emphasized his belief
that circumstances had fixed the eyes of
the whole nation on the contest in this
district, and declared that within its
borders is to be fought the first battle
that is to determine for all time the fate
of the trust as a business enterprise in
American industrial life.
The former governor, despite his ad-
vanced years, displayed all the vigor of
intellect and voice which characterized
his former campaigns, when he was rec
ognized as the greatest political orator in
the state. He was listened to by large
audience, composed mostly of farmers,
many of whom drove ten and twenty miles
to be present. Speaking of trusts, Mr..
BoieS said:

Railway association was called to order
today. President Herbert III. Vreeland,
of the association, who is the head or
the Metropolitan Street Railway Com,

the present-day attitude Of the puollc,
Of municipal assemblies and OF state leg

He charged that Notwithstanding the
fact that inviolability of contract was one
of the very fundamental principles OF
American government, contracts between
municipalities and street railway com
panies were apparently held to be bind
Ing only upon the companies, the con-
tracts being infringed constantly by new
taxes and new regulations.
He declared that one of the points
street railway men would have to. gain
in the near future was the free inter
change of freight cars between electric
and steam railways.

A Song for the Coal Miners.

Ernest Howard Crosby, author Of the
popular novel. Capt. links, Hero" has
written a song in defense of the striking
coal miners, entitled 1.-THE Land of the
MONDAY Night" The first stanza is as
follows:
We have eyes to see like yours
Way down in the deep, deep mine,
But there's nothing to mark but the
dreadful dark
Where the sun can never shine.
On the banks of the clammy coal
Our lamps cast pickering light
At the bottom drear of the moist black
hole
In the land of the monday night.
The song has been set to music by Flea
nor Smith and is published in regular
sheet-muSic style.
