PLAN WHOLESALE SLAUGHTER
Timely Discovery Prevents ES-
cape of Three Noted
DeSperadOeS,

Reno, New, Feb. 27.-Wesley Cor
don, one Of the three desperadoes who
have been trying to break out Of jail
at Elko, has made a sensational con-
fessiOn following a third effort to es-
cape. The third attempt at a delivery
was discovered after the prisoners had
filed off their handouts and broken
their Oregon boots" into fragments.
They tore up a heavy iron bar and with
pieces of iron several feet long were
preparing to Kill the jailer when he
entered to feed them. They were found
lying in wait for him and were rushed
by four men. who Overpowered them
and chained them to the cells.
Gordon says that he and his two
companions, Sterling and Watson. were
furnished with files, knives and gum
powder by a tTusty. Guns were planted
outside the jail and after killing
the jailer they intended 10 break for
the hills and kill any one who might
pursue them. With the powder they
had blown their heavy steel Oregon
boots to pieces, and with the saws had
removed their handouts. The trusty
viii be held to the grand jury. Several
lives would have been lost had the plot
been successful.

MOB STORMS 4
NEGRO CAM
Springfield, o., the Scene of Fierce
Battle Between the White
and Black Races.

Springfield, o., Feb. 2S.-At 12:45 this
morning Sheriff AImoney wired Gov
ernor Pattison the following: send all
possible troops tonight and hold others
in readiness for tomorrow"
The mob is stoning and jeering the
militiamen, but q show of bayonets
has sUfffced so far to keep the rioters
on the move.
Springfield, O., Feb. 27.-Mob violence
resulted tonight from a shooting in the
railroad yards early this morning in
which NJ. NJ. Davis, a, brakeman, was
perhaps fatally shot by two negroes,
Preston Ladd Of BeIIefontaine and Ed
ward Dean of this city
Ladd was taken to the hospital this
morning as a result Of injuries received
presumabl- in connection with the
shooting Of Davis, and lies in a ward
adjacent to his victim. Dean was taken
to Dayton after a hurried conference
of officials.
A mob of more than LOCO men and
boys formed and marched to the Jun
giles" a locality inhabited by coIored
people, with the announced purpose of
burning that section. The mob soon
reached the "Jungles" and battered one
house to pieces with stones and posts
used as battering rams.
At 10 O'Clock tonight the mob entered
Kempler's saloon on East Columbia
street and quickly looted il. Kempler
and his wife fed, leaving their three
children asleep in room over the sa-
loon. The building was riddled with
bullets and stones, and it was only by
the hardest efforts of the police and
fremen that way was forced through
the mob and the children rescued. After
