JAIL DELIVERY
FRUSTRATED
Prisoners in County BastiIe Plan
Escape But Sheriff
Gets the Tip.
MACK SENT FOR EIGHT YEARS
ogden School Census Shows Net In
crease OF 219--Coal Shortage
Causes Alarm----Pollcc Court.

Ogden, Aug. 10.--An attempt of four
prisoners occupying cell No. I of the
county Jail to escape early yesterday
morning was baffled by message from
another prisoner to the sheriff, notify
ing him to lay in watch for the men
all night. Before the sheriff's force
made any move to stop the men they
had cut hole foot square in the wall
OF the cell and one of them had climbed
through into the corridor.
About three days ago the men began
working with the saw upon the steel
cage, but they did their work so quietly
that hardly anyone in the jail knew It,,
the noises of the saw being deafened
by the application of soap. The hole
was near the floor and was large
eisough for the largest of the men to
crawl through. when one of the pris-
ouers climbed through this hole he
could swing the levers which opened
the doors of the other cells, releasing
the men into the outer hall The saw
ing through of four bars of an outer
window would have set every man free,
The window through which the escape
was to be made was the one Just above
the bathtub. One of the iron supports
of the steam pipes was taken down
and was to have been used as lever.
HI the attempt been made the night
before it Is very likely that there
would have been wholesale jail de-
livery.
Joseph Henry Mack, 60 years of age,
who had confessed being n
criminal for half a century,
and who was taken TO the state prison
yesterday to serve an eight-year SEN
tencc. Is believed to have been the
instigator of the plot The timely ar
rival of Sheriff Sebring and his depu-
ties was the means of preventing q
score of criminals from being turned
loose upon the public.

TnE MAYOR,s POWER.

confidence In his statements that he

make the claim that the council, and
not the mayor, will be held response
bic for the enforcement Of the law.
Tho appointment of police officers
belongs to the mayor and he can dis
miss any police officer at any time
without asking the council. The
state law defining his power in this
respect says: 1.-THE mayor by and
with tho consert of the council shall
appoint such number OF regular pc
llcemen Ms may be necessary. All po.
lice officers appointed by the mayor
and council In accordance herewith,
shall be removable at any time by the
mayor.
The point In the law which places
the police force absolutely under the
control of the mayor IL plainly shown
In the last few words of the section
''shall be removable at any time by
the mayor. " With this power vested
in that official he has the police force
under his absolute control. The car

most people are Of the same opinion;
but occasionally you find an indivi-

as too narrow minded to be of any
value to any party. He lives
