fact that an organized posse has been
securing the woods in the vicinity OF
Port Reading and Carteret ever since
Saturday morning, Frank Ides, who
succeeded in scaling twelve-foot
fence surrounding the New Jersey
State Reformatory, is still at large.

formatory guards until Blairs woods
We're reached and there all trace OF
him was lost.

of dislodging Ides from his hiding
place, but the plan failed. The watch

ed he jumped on one of the west
bound freights and escaped.

the guard, suffered little from the
wound in the neck, and will recover
