the Escape

PITTSBURG, Pa, September 5.-1t was
discovered here Tuesday that Walter Dor

nitentiary former consort of the Biddle
brothers, who turned states evidence to
save his neck. had planned to escape from
prison and had piled his paraphernalia in
corner of the prison chapel, where he had
for some time been janitor. AS result
Dorman has been cast into the dungeon,
and his hope of pardon has gone glim-
mering.
Dorman had choice assortment of ropes.
large and small. which the prison officials
think he was about to use in an enort TO
escape Also quite a sum of money was
coming to him which might have been used
later for purposes of bribery.
Prison officials say they were forced 10
give Dorman job away from the other
convicts, who had threatened to Kill him
for "squealing on the Biddles. The off,
Gals say also they have proof that Dorman
Is none other than the notorious Price BEN
nett, bandit of the northwest.
Five years ago Jack and Ed Blddle, with
Dorman, killed a PittSS'lrg grocer named
Kahney; they also killed Detective Hallon
Fitzgerald when he tried to arrest them
Dorman turned states evidence and saved
his life, while the Biddles were sentenced
to be hanged. They escaped from the Pitts
burg jail, aided by the wife of Warden
Peter Soffel and both were killed next day

helped themselves to some of Mr.. Jacks0n's
cigars
Inc lower floor was ransacked but the
sleeping rooms upstairs were not disturbed
Mr.. Jackson solid silverware was in a
