TAYLOR "N|PS" A JAIL BREAK
Pend|eton Sheriff Drops Onto
Scheme Of Prisoners.
STEEL SAWS WERE DISCOVERED
ON INVESTIGATING FINDS BARS
IN JAIL HAD BEEN
SEVERED.
STEEL SAWS WERE DISCOVERED

Pendleton, Aug. 24.-It has just be-
come known that daring attempt at
Jail delivery on the part of the prison.
ers now confined in the Umatilla aOun-
ty Jail was frustrated Sunday evening
by the watchfulness of Sheriff Tay-
lor. The county Jail is now filled with
prisoners of all classes and colors and
if the break had been successful the
officers would have had some trouble
in recapturing all their charges.
In some manner unknown to the
sheriff or his deputies a steel saw had
been passed into the Jail and with this
they had succeeded in almost severing
one Of the bars in one of the south
windows. With only a few minutes
work left to open their way from the
Jail corridor to freedom, the prisoners
rested on their oars and waited for
night When it came time for locking
them in their cells, two of them, Albert
Murray and young Weddle, climbed
to the top of the ceiling and concealed
themselves as best they could, thinking
they would be overlooked by the sher-
iff They reckoned without their host,
however, for the sheriff noticed their
absence and soon had them safely
locked in their respective cells.
He then proceeded to make a tour
partly severed bar A further investi-
CATION located the saw which had been
used on the bar.
