sherIR is Disappointed.

Sheriff Van Pelt and his deputies who have been endeavoring sin e last Thursday to get on the trail of the three men who dug their way through the county jail wall, have almost given up hope of capturing their men. as ncthlr has been heard from Mobile where 1t was expected the men would go If they left the city in the boat as was claimed
 They should have reached Mobile by this date, but it Is possible that they do not intend entering the city a once Parties at the navy yard claim that they saw the stolen sail boat on the morning of the Jail delivery beating past the yard containing four men but that they paid but little attention to it, inasmuch as the owner frequent ly loaned it to his friends. The boat came back, but what became of the men is a question that the officers have been endeavorIng to solve. The Sher- if is very anxious to get the men especially Holllster. who is long term prisoner and has offered rewards fol their capture.
