ESCAPED FROM SLEEPY OFFICER.
Man Wanted at Independence Walks
Out of Car.

Waterloo, Dec. 24.-W. H. Wilson,
wanted at Independence for selling q
herd of cattle morigaged for s3,00o,
escaped from the custody Of DEPUTY
Sheriff E. Swisher Of Dewitt county.
Illinois, in this city Friday. Wilson
shipped the stock 20 Chicago M dis
posed Of it, securing about $4,000. The
Independence authorities. after making
extensive inquiries, at last located him
in Clinton, III. He was arrested and
Sheriff Pirua OF Buchanan county at
orce left for Des Moines to secure
reQuisit!on papers and Their proceeded
to Clinton. He had previously inform
I'd the sheriffs Office ct Clinton, H.,
that he was enroute TO that place and
would bring the prisoner back TO In
dependence.
When he arrived at Bloomington q
message informed him hat Wilson
had escaped from Swishar on the ar
rival of the Roc Island train i Il
Waterloo. Pinutf Immediately wired
the local police TO be IN the ,ookous
for the man and also sent an accurate
description. An investigation into the
escape brought out the fact tina
Swisher slept most Of the time on the
trip to this city and that after leaving
Clinton Wilson, the prisoner, handed
the tickets to the conductor whiie
his captor slunbered noisily. Before
the train pulled into the union sta
ton, Swisher aroused himself and
went TO ore end Of the tram. and o.
his return found Wilson had fed. The
peculiar thing about the escape is that
the Clinton deputy sheriff failed to
even notify the local police Of the mat
ter and late in the day sent a wire 70
Clinton giving out the meager details.
Sheriff Finuf Of Independence ar
rived in the city OF his way back from
the futile trip to Clinton. and is very
much disguised with the extremely
loose proceedings.
