Desperate Men Had Cut a Hole
Through Steel Floor of Cell and
Carefully Concealed the

Sioux Falls, S. D., Nov. 5.-Another
daring attempt at wholesale Jail de-
livery in this city was defeated and.
frustrated.
The ringleader in the attempt was
j. III. Wilson. noted forger who on
September 80 last, together with
prisoner named Ryan. made his escape
from the county Jail after striking
Jailer Chooks a violent blow with n
piece of gas pipe. Both men were re-
captured, and since that time every
effort has been made to prevent similar
attempts.
Shortly before the supper hour to-
night, while Janitor Dow was clean
ing the outside windows of the Jail
building. he heard scratching. The
officers were informed and an inNesti
cation disclosed tunnel about 80 feet
in length which had been dug under the
jail building to the outer wall.
Wilson and those implicated with
him had in some manner yet a mystery
cut hole through a steel cement floor
in the bathroom, running the tunnel
from this point. Some of the dirt had
been piled behind objects in the bath
room, but what was done with the re-
mainder has not been discovered

when it was it is probable all of the
fifteen prisoners in that part of the
county Jail would have disappeared

IN the Great Lakes district. They have
decided to contine prospecting to Utah
and Mexico.
1T has been stated" said a promi-
nent manufacturer today, that the
Utah ores are inferior to the Mesa ba
ores, and that in consequence the finer
grades OF steel cannot be produced
from them. | am of different opn-
ion. While Utah ores are not up to
the Mesaba ores in quality, 1t will not
be many years before they will be en-
ployed ip the manufacture of steel as
fine as that now produced by the Unit
ed State Steel corporation.
The plan to erect steel plant in
the vicinity of the ore regions of Utah
has not been abandoned by any means.
The expected increase in iron and steel
production will bring about rapid
exhaustion of the Mesaba ores and 1t
will be necessary to look elsewhere for
supplies

ore centers in North America"

Washington Nov. T. = President
Roosevelt had an escape from death al
most miraculous. being thrown from his
horse while he was riding near Wash
ington week ago Sunday. The acci-
dent did not become known until today.
The president was approaching a
high fence at top speed when his horse
stumbled and fell, throwing Mr.. Roose-
Welt off forward. He struck sauarely
on his head. and was so severely
stunned that he was unconscious for
some time, just bow long he does not
know, as he was riding entirely alone
When he regained his senses he
found his horse standing near. The
president was so dizzy he could not
stand. 1t was some time before he re-
gained control of his legs and arms
lie then reuounted and rode at a slow
pace to the point where his orderly
was waiting for him.
BY that time there was great lump
on the right side of the head and blood
trickling from long. shallow scalp
wound above the right ear. The evil
dences of it still are there.
The president regards it as a miracle
that his neck was not broken. II he
had landed on the stone which
scratched his head. instead of in the
soft earth beside It, he believes his
skull would have been crushed like an
sses'E 81 President ordered ,aa, no, !

obliged to appeal to the court and this
time the order came for him to show
cause why he should not be punished

was therefore fined $40 for his offense
and was given to understand that
repetition of the offense would neces-
state the enforcement of more severe
methods. 1t is doubtful if this incident
