Effort Believed To Have Been
Made Last Night To
Escape From Jail.
SUSPICIOUS ACTIONS AROUSE
AUTHORITIES.
Who, Upon Investigation, Hear
Signals Between Prisoners
and Outsiders.

What is believed by Deputy
Sheriff John Bailey to have been
an attempt at Jail delivery was
made last night and as a result a
constant watch was kept up at
at the jail during the remainder
of the night to await develop
ments.
Mr.. Bailey was aroused about
10 o'clock at night by suspi-
cious sound from the jail as if a
window had fallen to the ground.
He at once set out to vestigate
and went around the Jail, exam
ming the ground and the windows
of the building, but after a search
of a few minutes found nothing
suspicious in the actions of the
prisoners and decided that he
had been mistaken, returning to
the sheriff's residence, which is
Immediately connected with the
jail. He was not satisfied with
the first examination, however,
and went out to make another.
He passed around the east and
north sides of the jail and was
justturning the northwest corner
of the building when he noticed
two men on the other side of the
street directly opposite the jail.
He waited a few minutes when
one of the men wilistled as if Sig
mailing someone, and a similar
whistle was repeated by an occu-
pant OF the Jail. After this he
heard one of the prisoners in the
Jail cry out Cali is WE'LL" He
then took up station at one of
the windows on the west side
and stood ready with a revolver
to check the exit Of anyone from
the jail. He suddenly remem-
bered, however, that his revolver
was empty and sent down town
for ammunition. The carrier of
the message undoubtedly misun-
stood him, for upon the return of
the messenger two police and
about a hundred people who saw
them hurrying to the jail, arrived,
and all further attempt to appre-
bend those who had been giving
the signals was dismissed.
The cells on the west side of
the jail are occupied by prisoners
who have been bound over to the
fall term of district court, and it
is thought that the affair was an
attempt to release some of these.
Nothing has developed as to
who Was doing the signaling and
although a thorough examination
of the jail has been made with a
view to finding out whether an
attempt to escape has occurred.
