DESERTERS GET AWAY
Three Prisoners at Fort Douglas
Make Good Their
Escape.

With smuggled saws and files three
desperate prisoners confined in the
guard house at Fort Douglas made
their escape from that prison early
yesterday morning After saving
through big iron bars, the men crawied
through a small hole. slipped by a
sentry and have not been seen or
heard of since. All efforts to get the
least trace of them have proved I'M
aYailing.
The escaped prisoners. who were
serving time for desertion. were A. z.
Brown of the One Hundred and Fifth
coast artillery. serving two years; w.
B. King an unassigned recruit from
the Preside, serving eighteen months.
and Private Hartman of the Twenty
second battery, Fort Douglas. serving
eighteen months.
Hartman, it is said, has been work
ing about the blacksmith shop at the
fort for some time past and only re-
ceiVed his sentence a few days ago. 1t
is supposed that before being locked
up he took advantage of an opportun-
ity to smuggle a saw and file into his
clothing and carried them into the
prison with him. He was placed in
an apartment with King and Brown.
Some time during Wednesday night
the boys sawed some large iron bars
covering a small window. some seven
teen by twenty inches in size.
The bars were sawed off clean and
the three men squeezed through the
opening and managed in some way TO
slip past the sentry, who was on duty
all night. A third man attempted TO
escape by the same means. but he was
too large for the opening and got fast
in the window. In this condition he
was discovered and the discovery of
the absence of the other prisoners was
made.
ately and efforts were made to trace
the escaped deserteTs, but not the
slightest trace of the direction they
had taken could be secured. Descrip-
tons of the men have been sent out
and the officers in the surrounding
country have been notified to keep
watch for the men.

Amount

to the police yesterday that he had had
a Lively encounter with hold-ups near
the heart of the city early yesterday
morning He was held up by two
masked men, but the thugs secured a
25-cent piece for their trouble.
According to the story of Perry, he
was returning home shortly after mid
night and was walking along Fifth
South between West Temple and First
West streets when he encountered two
men leaning against bicycles. The men
started to walk away when they saw
him, but gradually came together and
faced him with revolvers in their
hands. Both men, he said, had masks
on their faces. and when they stopped
they ordered him to put up his hands.
He obeyed, and while one man held the
guns the other went through his pock-
cts, taking what he could find of value.
The men overlooked a check for SIS.
When the thugs had accomplished
their purpose they made Perry walk
one way. while they walked another
Perry sneaked back towards Main
street and there saw the two hold-ups
joined by three other men, whom Perry
at first took to be good citizens. He
was about to call upon them 10 assist

them accost the two hold-ups who had
just left him.
