NATION BREAKS OUT
OF CELL QUICKLY
Bound With Ropes and Door
Double Locked.

Iron bars, bolts, ropes-all COM
bined were not able to hold Matzoni
in cell at police headquarters yes
terday afternoon. In less than five
minutes from the time he was locked
in a cell bound and tied to the iron
bars, he raped on the outer door
and when this was opened he was
standing in the corridor. The pos
tage stamp over the paddock was
unbroken
How he got out was the great mys-
terry to several hundred people who
waited outside in the corridor, as
well as to the dozen or more persons
who inspected the cell to see that it
was securely looked.
1t was announced that 2;30 o'clock
in the afternoon would be the hour
when Chief Feagin would lock a will
ing prisoner in cell, the prisoner be-
lieving that he could break Jail as he
had done before. AS the hour drew
near the crowd in front of the police
barracks grew. 1t was a little after
the appointed hour when Matzoni, the
Jail breaker, appeared, walking with
an easy swing as if it was an every
day affair for him to break out of jail
Chief Feagin was in his office when
the wizard entered, and the arrange
manic xuara criolIxr r,oda n ,,uvoIar
of witnesses being admitted The cell
was examined by committee. TAX
ing off his coat, Matzoni permitted
himself to be bound with rope, his
arms being pinioned and tied together.
In this condition he was tied inside
cell to the iron bars with his back to
the door.
The door of the cell was then
double locked by Chief Feagin, follow
ing which the committee walked past
the door and tried the lock. The pad
lock and spring lock were both fas-
tened tight. The committee then
retired into the Chiefs room and watt
ed
In a few minutes a knock was
heard on the door leading into the
corridor and the door being opened
Matzoni was standing free in the cor
ridor with the cell door shut and
the lock sealed just as it had been
left by the committee few minutes
before.
The committee could only stare at
the Jail breaker, for there was not the
slightest clue as to how he had es-
capped 1t seemed that if his trick
were known, to prisoner, he could
easily escape from the cell in spite
of locks and handouts.

interior, call money being loaned as
high as Is per cent, the bull pit full
of dead steers, a man who can muster
up enough courage to buy cotton in
the face of this should be examined
right now by lunatic board or else
banished to the army for life. The
talk of Europe exporting gold to this
country to be loaned at enormous
rates blew up this morning, when the
Bank of England announced otherwise
and they too will raise their rate
Thursday. The market is a veritable
bear house party and their chief
diet is tenderloin steaks cut from the
choicest of bulls. The big fellow who
is giving this party announced today
that cotton would sell so low by the
end of the year that the banks would
not loan over four cents per pound.
We think January will sell for $50
by the end of the week.
