Mail Carrier Hold Up.

In connection with Morans escape
a Fort Madison letter carrier, Fl. w.
Davis, had a very narrow escape from
being shot for the escaping convict.
Mr.. Davis lives out on the hill beyond
the prison and sometimes does not
go home till late in the evening. This
was one of his late evenings. The
mail carriers wear a gray uniform.
almost identical in color to the gray
prison garb. He was vending his way
home on the Burlington hill when
someone in the dark accosted him
with, Where are you going?' Mr..
Davis paid but little attention to the
Interrogation and kept on going. Again
the query was propounded and still he
kept on going, presuining it was some
OF his friends, who had accosted him
from the dark linking TN surpriSo.

Another convict has escaped from

to say of the latest escape
Thomas Moran a convict at the
state penitentiary, made good his es-
cape Wednesday night after 700
O'Clock, while doing his usual work
as a trusty.
Moran was sent to the penitentiary
at Anamosa to serve five years for
horse stealing and was transferred
to the Fort Madison institution. He
had only five months more to serve.
He wore a first grade (gray) uni
form, and was employed as a sta
tionery engineer on the outside
work. In that capacity he was re-
CURED to go outside after supper
and bank the fire under the boiler,
and has been doing that work for
some time without thought from
'he wdiueH VI uepuly OIL an escape.
AS usual he went out that night about
z O'Clock to perform his evening
task. AS he had been thus engaged
many times and returned promptly
he was not missed until he had been
gone possibly an hour or more. Search
ing parties were sent out as soon as
his absence was noted, but under cover
of night his escape was made easily.

Warden's Statement.

Warden's Statement.
Warden Sanders has made the fol-
lowing statement to the Democrat:
Thomas Moran, prisoner serving
five-year sentence for horse stealing,
made his escape last evening about
T:30. He has, been running the sta
tionary engine for the outside con-
struction gang for the past two
months. being considered a trust
worthy prisoner. Last night he was
left out to bank the fires on account Of
the extremely cold weather. He had
but five months yet to serve and has
been very Industrious and hard
working prisoner. Indications point
strongly to the fact that he was aid
ed by outside parties. An immediate
search was instituted and kept up
during the night. 1t may be possible
that he has become insane over let
ter which he received on the oath
from his mother, living near Jeal,
South Dakota. In this letter the moth
er bewailed her feeble and lonely
condition. He was very much disap-
pointed that he did not secure pa
role. She had in previous letters Of
fered him a farm If he would come
and work. 1t is believed that this
melancholy letter to him from his
mother superinduced his hasty depart
ure. This man had but five months
yet to serve and 1t seems very rea-
sonable that his mind was temporarily
unbalanced. He has made an effora on
the strength of his mothers plea for
executive clemency."

Believed pemented.

Warden ]. c. Sanders states that
the man had had plenty of opportun-
titles before to escape, and besides
when the weather was milder a:,d
everything more propitious for sue
cessful getaway. He believes that
the man became demented over wor-
ry about his mother, who lives alone
In South Dakota and often writes
him about coming to her. A letter
came from her for him since he es.
capped. He had made an attempt for
a parole. but that had been refused.

prisoner. there not being mark
