DARING ESCAPE
OF HARVEY LOGAN.
Montana Train RObber Breaks.
Jail at Knoxville and is
Again a Free Man.

Knoxville. Tenn, June 29-The
most daring escape from Jail on record
was made here at 30 O'CLOCK this
evening from the Knox County Jail,
one or the strongest prisons in Tonnes
see, by Harvey Logan. alias KID Cur
ry, the Montana bank robber, who was
captured here Dec. 10. 1901, following
his shooting of two policemen who
attempted his arrest In Bowery
saloon.
HOW HE WORKED 1T.
While Frank Irwin, his special
guard. was standing with his back to
Logan's cage ana near the bars this
afternoon ne felt the back OF his head
suddenly strike the bars and a wire.
| tighten about his neck. Logan had
lassoed him with small wire moose
constructed from the wire from
broom. Logan threatened him with
death ii he made a noise, and then
tied the guard TO the bars. He then
went to the bath room and secured q
long stick mace of several sticks tied
together, and with this he drew to him
shoe box containing two pistols kept
there by the guards, who would not
carry the pistol on their persons, fear
ing that Logan might snatch 1T
through the bars, he having many
such successes to his record with dea0
sheriffs resulting.
CAPTURED THE JAILER.
With these pistols in his possession
he knocked for the jailer, and when
Jailer Tom Bell arrived he got him to
approach his cage by handing him a
medicine bottle with a request for
medicine. Logan then covered the
jailer with the pistols and threatening
him with death, compelled hlm to
work the combination and open his
cage door. He then marched the jailer
down stairs, compelling him to unlock
doors as he did so. and out through
the Kitchen to the back yard. He then
made the jailer saddle Sheriff j. w.
Fox's finest horse and rode out the rear
entrance to liberty.
As the prisoner, with the iailer in
front, passed the back entrance to the
Sheriff's house, which adjoins the jail,
Sheriff Fox ran out on the front porch
and wanted to know the trouble. Jailer
Bell told him he would find out soon
enough, if he didn't get back quick. The
Sheriff ran to cover, else Logan would
have killed him.
Logan went south, crossing the coun-
ty bridge. Jailer Bell returned and re-
leased the guard and telephoned police
headquarters. A posse was formed, but
the prisoner got an hours start. He
will never be taken alive.
The sheriff's horse returned yester-
day lame in one foot.
A reward of $1,000 has been offered
Tor Logan's capture.
Federal Judge Clark has ordered
'igid investigation of the escape.
