other, an enemy, attempting to capture

opportunity to prey on the coast com.

On August Is a most spectacular
inspection of the immense feet will
be made by the president of the United

MINUS PRISONERS.
There Were 800 In Llne-Thirteen
Broke Away-Each Had Knife
Fought With Guards-Two Will Die
-convicts Change clothes and E.
cape-Great Excitement.

Folsom, Cal, July 29.-One OF the
biggest breaks in the history OF the
Folsom prison occurred at Z o'clock a.
m. The line of convicts were marching
out of the prison to go to work. About
300 of them were out when 10 OF them
who were in a bunch in the line, made
a break for the guards office, where
Warden Wilkinson, Captain Murphy
and other officers were.
Each of the desperate men had a
knife made of a file. They cut at the
men and Warden Wilkinson had mar
row escape, his clothing being cut
through. Joe Cochrane, W. L. Cotter
and c. H. Holly were all cut, the for
mer two so seriously that they will
not live. They then marched to the
armory taking Warden Wilkinson.
Captain Murphy and other guards and
officers all closely guarded by the con-
victs with knives. At the armory they
helped themselves to guns and ammu.
milton, each convict having a rifle and
a pistol. During this time other guards
had the crowd covered with guns, but
could not shoot because of the free
men.
After leaving the armory the party
moved across the prison grounds
there being at that time 10 convicts
and 10 free men. After going short
distance the free men were forced tc
disrobe, the convicts putting on their
clothes and the guards being forced tc
get into the convicts' CARDS.
Some of the free men were then al
lowed to return to the prison. They
were Warden Wilkinson, Captain Muir
ply, Harry Wilkinson, G. X. jolly ant
G. H. Warm. Later l.. G. Vertrees es
capped from them. The other fret
men are still with the convicts, who
are now in the woods, about ten miles
above Folsom. They are General Over

who have been mean to them and Il
Is feared that they will be murdered
The convicts who made the break arr
all desperate characters. The breal
has probably been planned for many
months.
When the break was made the con
victs inside the building became wilt
and there was great commotion.
A convict named Joe Casey swung
the bolt at the inner gate or there
would have probably have been many
more of the prisoners gone. John L
Wood, a life termer from San Fran
cisco, and Joe Theson, also life term
er from San Francisco, are said to b.
the leaders of the break.
Great excitement prevails here, fol
several posses are out and the Pla
cerville company of militia has beer
sent for.
