acrid poison is formed and deposited In

Jail Break At Cananea

Saturday, in broad daylight, forty prisoners confined in the jail at Can anea, Sonora, overpowered the jailers and escaped. The men were charged with different ofenses, ranging from petty larceny to murder.
 At the noon hour, while three Mexi- can jailers were feeding the prisoners, the latter, at prearranged signal, rushed upon the jailers, overpowered them and took their guns. Two of the jailers were beaten into insensibility, and the third was stabbed. The es- capped prisoners made for the noun tains back of town, and so great was the surprise of those who saw them set free, that no effort was made to ap- prehend them.
 When the Mexican gendarmes recov- cred from their surprises, posse was organized, and the trail of the prison CTS was taken up. Two, who were wounded by the officers, were captured, but the othars escaped.
 This is the second jail delivery in a month, and a new prison is being cut out Of the side Of a mountain, whence escape will be we'll nigh impossible.
