John Carr and James Ford, Who Es.
capped from Ration Jail, Are Caught
at Trinidad, Colorado.

The Trinidad Advertiser of Tuesday
has the following to say concerning
the arrest of two of the prisoners who
escaped from the Ration Jail:
John Carr one of the Ration jai
breakers, might have been turned
loose by the Trinidad peace officers
last night had he not in fit of for
getfulness scrawled his name on a
newspaper.
Carr, like many another, absent
mindedly scribbled his name on his
paper while he was reading, never
thinking at the time that the act might
serve to identify him and cause his
Imprisonment. When caught by Dep.
uty Sheriff Middleton and Policeman
Egan he said his name was Cook; he
vigorously denied that he had ever
been in Ration or that he even knew
of the Jail break. The officers search
ed him but found nothing to prove
his identity. The newspaper taken
from him was not suspected of giving
any possible clew. The paper was
kept however and later while being
carelessly read found to have the in
scription. Positive Identification was
made late last night by man from
Ration.
James Ford was another of the es.
capped prisoners to come to Trinidad
and he also was nabbed. There was
no difficulty in proving his identity.
The Jail break at Ration occurred
early yesterday morning, and In ad-
dition to the two caught in Trinidad,
John Medlock, colored; Wilson, color
ed; Mccain, Samuels, Lewis and
Anderson escaped. Of these the most
important prisoner is Medlock, who Is
wanted for murder committed some
four years ago and was caught only
two days ago.
A posse started in pursuit Of the
men as soon as the escape was discov-
cred, but aside from the captures
made in Trinidad more of the fugi-
tives have been found

night reached Trinidad and made the

pect arrested early in the evening
