Missouri for 2 Cent Fare.

The 2 cent railroad fare bill was
ordered engrost i'll the house Tues
day without dissenting vote after
an argument of an hour. AS en-
grost, the bill provides for 2 cent
fare on all railroads in Missou,iex-
cept On independent lines not more
than 40 miles in length, which may
charge 3 cents a mile. For the
purpose of keeping railroad lobby
lists from the floor during the debate
on the fare bill Speaker Atkinson
instructed the doorkeeper and SER
geant at arms 10 strictly enforce
the rules prohibiting all except GER
tain persons from entering the lower
galleries leading to the house floor.
This order was read inst before the
? cent fare bill was taken up, and
was obeyed.

Birmingham, May 11.-(Speeia1)--
Fred Settles, a young white man. in
carcerated in the county Jail on March
S0th, on two charges of burglary and
grand larceny, made a sensational and
unsuccessful attempt to escape from
prison this afternoon.
He went into the basement and be-
gan crawling through the air shaft and
chimney to the roof. The attempt
to escape was reported to Sheriff Hig
don by the Linn brothers, and guards
were placed all around the jail with
shot guns and Winchester rifles, it not
being known at first how many prison
ers were making the break. A lot of
paper and oil was secured and set ahre
to force the prisoner to the top. When
the young man got to the roof, he
saw on all sides guns pointing at him,
and he threw up his hands. 1t took
considerable time to get ladders to
bring the prisoner down again.
Great excitement prevailed around
the iail The fire department was
called to lend ladders and this added
to the excitement. After the prisoners
had been locked up in the jail, Sheriff
Higdon went inside and gave the men
talk. He said that he had been
treating the prisoners well and did not
believe they would try to take advant-
age of kindnesses shown them. He
ordered Settles locked up and kept
locked up until his trial. He compl-
mented the Linn brothers for giving
the information to the sheriff and prom
