ESCAPE INVESTIGATED.
Federal Postal Authorities Are Looking
Over the Jail at La
Crosse

Ia Crosse, Wis, Aug. 21.-[Special. ]
Acting under the advice of the Chi
! cago headquarters of this division of the
United States secret service, Inspector
Fraser stationed at La Crosse, has be-
gun thorough investigation of the rea-
sons why Trainer and Cunningham, two
OF the three prisoners in the La Crosse
county Jail awaiting trial for postoffice
robblng, were allowed to get out 1t is
known also that two other members of
the department are here working on the
case, but their identity and plan of work
is concealed from the public.
Postoffice Inspector Fraser visited the
Jail late Saturday, at the same time the
building committee of the county Jail
were investigating. Mr.. Fraser refused
to state why he was there Or what he
had found, but it is known that he found
that it was absolutely impossible for
Cunningham to have escaped without
help from the inside of the jail He
also found that Trainer had help both
on the outside and inside Just who
profted by the FayCunningham-T Trainer
method of evading being brought to trial
is not yet known. That Chicago parties
assisted is we'll established.
Chairman Pettingill of the county
board committee states: 1--WE found that
Cunningham must have had very heavy
tools to break through the floor. These
must have been gotten to him through
someone On the outside of the Jail. Then
he had drills and other machinery to get
through. He also must have known
from someone that when he once got
through the floor he could drop in be-
tween the floors and escape by an open
ing left by plumbers months ago. He
knew that before he started to get out"
A sensation is looked for, as the reti-
cence of the inspectors is taken to mean
that some one of the officials at least
is not yet exonerated. 1t is also stated
now that Crane, the remaining man of
the trio is only pickpocket, who fell
in with Cunningham and Trainer near
La Crosse.
Trainer sawed his bolts and bars dur
ing period covering several days at
least. He had the freedom of the corri-
dor, but always in view of peek
hole,'' and how he worked without some
one seeing him is another of the prob
lens.
