Repairs to Police Boat.

The harbor police boat Vigilant, which has
been undergoing extensive repairs to her
boiler, is to be taken to Alexandria today
and hauled out on the marine railway at
Deans boatyard to have her hull re-
metaled in order to put her in condition for
service the coming winter should the river
freeze. Early in the spring, when it was
found necessary to make extensive re-
pairs to the hull of the police boat, a num-
Der of planks having been found to be par
TALLY decayed, all the metal that had COW
cred the hull for several years had to be
torn off. AS long as there is no Ice the
wooden hull of the Vigilant is all right, but
should it be necessary to use her in ice
this would be quickly cut through
To avoid such possibility the hull of the
Vigilant will be covered with heavy gal
vanized iron, making it safe to send her
out in any ice she can break her way
through without danger of injury to the
hull. The hull of the power launch Major
Sylvester, which is used in the patrol work
about the harbor, may also be sheathed, SO
that she can be kept in service In the early
part of the winter when the river is only
covered by skim of ice.

DISCOVERED IN TIME
ESCAPE OF TWELVE PRISONERS
NARROWLY AvERTED.

The escape of twelve prisoners from the
cell room Of the Police Court was narrowly
averted yesterday afternoon by the watch
fulness of Policeman c. w. West, who is in
charge Of the cell room for the prisoners
charged with United States offenses. The
officer upon discovering that a means of
escape had been perfected put himself be-
tween the twelve inmates and an open and
unbarred window in the cell until help
came. The prisoners were then carefully
guarded until they were sent to Jail.
When the Police Court moved to it's tenn
porary quarters in the 18th street structure
cells had to be constructed. A rear room on
the first floor of the building was chosen for
the cells for one of the courts, and over the
windows and doors of that room were put
bars. These bars could not be put in as
soildly as the bars usually are In a jail.

Noise Attracts Attention.

While Policeman West was sitting in
front of the cells in which the twelve pris-
oners were confined about noon yesterday
he heard slight noise in the cells, as If
something had fallen. When he investigat-
ed he saw that the bars over the rear win
dow had been pulled out Of place. He or
dered the prisoners to get away from the
closed window. At that time one of them
walked to 1t and opened the window wide,
thus giving free egress from the prison.
Policeman West rushed into the cells, call
ing to Policeman Flynn to watch the door
he had left open. The bluecoat stood in
front of the open window and ordered the
prisoners to keep away. until help arrived.
Had the twelve men in the cells chosen
they could easily have overpowered the
officer and escaped through the open win
dow. The officer was unarmed at the time.
