Desperaled Prisoners Escape.

i Car-on di-pat IA Of the lTth to the
Reno Gazette sHys:
After Il desperate battle with the
guards in the guardroom os the Nevadt
State Prison this afternoon, in which
one Of the guards was wounded IN the
hand, three desperate convicts, Richard
Forrest, James Edwards and John Wat
son, considered to be the most Gange-
rOus men i'll the prison, made good their
escape, heavily armed with rifi e and
pstUls, and are still at large. 4 posse
from the prison is in pursuit OF the men I,
who went toward Carson City rs soon rs
;hey cs 'aped from the PRISON.
Tho convic's, without warning, went
through the kitchen and entered the
guardroOm OF the prison. All were
armed and desperate encounter en-
sued in which several shots were fired
One guard was wounded III the hand,
but the other bullets failed to take
effect. After OvcrpUTCrIn2 the guards
rnr men lett the guad drOom and climb
lhg onto the butcher wagon, which

the time, lrovc rapily away i'll the direc-
ton Of Carson Eity. Nothing has been
seen or heard Of them since they left
tho prison, bnt pca'' officers in every
town and city within range Of the tele-
hone hav. been notified, and it is not
thought the men will get far. 4 battle
will probably cusue, Rs the men are
ncavily armed aud desperate.
It Ia the opinion OF the authorities at
;he prison that the arms which the con-
Sirts secured were planted in the prison
yard 10y the men who stole the horse and
buggy from the Reno Livery Company

it near Empire. 1t is thought that thie
il what the men who stole the rig made
tho trip to Empire for and that they are
now in the vicinity Of Cnrson md will
aid the escaped cOnvicts.
Edwards and Forrest were sent UP
from Wishoo county and spent some

upou which the ridges OF the Sierra
dwiudle until they leave a decided gap
through tie range, forming level

makes Il horseshoe curve to the south
ward, the Western Pacific, which is
every " here making Cut-ofTs regardless
OF the cost Of original construction, is
running its line underground ON u
direct course that will pass under the
northern spur that tapers down To the
pnss proper.
When the Central Pacific engineers
made their survey they recognized the
grade advantages of thus route, but the
initial transcoutineniRl railroad could
not risk the necessary enormous cK-
penditurcs. Hartman, recognizing IA
lost opportunity, is debating whether
or not to spend s3,000,000 in boring u
gigantic tunnel through the Sierra at
