CHAIN GANG PRISONERS
HOLD UP THEIR GUARD.
Beat Their shackles Off With
Hammers and
Escape.
.(special TO The Times-p tspatch.l


SrAUNTON, VA. January 6.-While the
city chain gang was working near the
poorhouse cut this morning three OF the
gang held up their guard and escaped.
The fugitives are Arthur Christian, Buck
Taylor and John Smith. They were under
Superintendent Newt Robertson. who at
the time was armed. but was taken un-
awares by the negro Arthur Christian.
who seized him by the throat and de-
manded the keys to the ankle locks. The
other two prisoners threatened to brain
the guard with the large hammers II he
did not produce them.
Not procuring the keys, however. the
prisoners beat off their shackles with
the hammers and made their escape.
One of the gang attempted to assist
the guard, but when threatened by one
OF the escaping convicts he grew mildly
quiescent. The trouble has its incep-
ton at the county jail yesterday at din-
ner, when the men became unruty SAY
ing their dinner was not fit to eat.
They refused to eat or go to work, and
the gang boss refused to take them out
OF jail. and left them there for the eva-'
ming in ldleness.

WANT CEMETERY OPEN.
colored People Will Appeal to
Barton Heights Council.

The Barton Heights Citizens Associst-
ton has been called to meet Tuesday
night at O'clock In the parish hall for
the purpose OF considering petition from
the negroes of the town asking permio.
sion to reopen the cemetery recently
closed by order of the town council.
Considerable interest Is being mani
Tested in the matter. chiefly on account
of the popularity OF the situation. There
are SIX negro cemeteries in Barton
Heights. and while each has q different
name they are adjacent and In fact form
one large burying-place. The town has
grown UP around the cemeteries until
they are now in the heart of one of tho
chief sections of the community. Besides
this the negroes kept no maps plats or
records of any sort and the cemeterr
being now almost full 1t was in the vast
majority OF instances absolutely impos-
sible to tell what sections were or were
not vacant. In view of this condition the
Council about year ago adopted an
ordinance providing that no further bur
ia's should be made unless maps were
produced showing that the lots in which
Il It was intended to open new graves did
not already contain bodies The effect
OF this ordinance was to close the ceme-
terry.
The petition is addressed to the Citizens
Association to which the matter was re-
ferred by the Council. 1t sets forth that
the management of the cemetery has
passed into different hands and urges
this as plea for the reopening. 1t also
says that an effort will be made to deter
mine which of the lots are still vacant
or partly vacant.
The attendance at the meeting will
probably be quite large. From what can
be gathered 1t is not likely that this asso-
citation will grant the petition.

NOT TO CONSOLIDATE
MEDICAL COLLEGES
Joint Committee From University

All hope of consolidating the Medical
College of Virginia with the Medical De-
partment of the University of Virginia
has been given up for the present at
least The last meeting OF the joint conf
mittee was held last night and this was
of the most informal character since, as
already published exclusively in this

would be impracticabe at this time for
the amalgamation to he contaminated.
Many difficulties arose and not Few
we're met. hut it Is believed that the chief
trouble was the lack of sufficient money
to bring about such an adjustment as
would make consolidation advanta-
egeous to both institutions.
While the supreme enc OF amalgama-
ton has not been reached. the long
existing friendship and good-feeling has
been maintained and strengthened.
