Tim Hurst, the former major league
umpire, was asked one day what was
the closest and hardest decision he
ever made, says the Sporting News.
1T was in Baltimore" he said, "Jen-
nings was on first, McGraw was on
second and Stencil at the bat. They
started a double steal. Jennings as
he passed Long, hit him and Long
tripped him, after which Jennings
went on and jumped into Collins.
Tenney tried to hold McGraw, but he
broke away, reached second and
kicked the ball out Of loves hands,
Stencil swung his bat and hit Robin
son on the hand trying to keep him
from throwing. Robby tripped me and
poked me in the back to keep me
from seeing and Stencil spiked my

asked. Il called 1t foul ball, sent

Knocked him down. McCarty was a
man of powerful physique and the
policemen were unable to handcuff
him. owing to the abnormal size of
his wrists. He was sentenced in De-

Fifteen Years on Force.

Fifteen Years on Force.
Ollinger, the dead policeman, was
an experienced patrolman and had a
good record in the department. He
was So years old and was appointed
to the force in August, 1895. He
was out in 1901 during the Ames
administration, but was reappointed
in 1902 and served continuously af-
ter that. He was six feet three inch
es tall and his physique made him
an adversary worthy Of McCarty.
McCarty and Juhl unlocked their
cells early Saturday evening, March
and slipped out the side door Of
the cell house, scaled the walls and
escaped from the Saltwater peni-
tentiary. The escape was the first
from Saltwater in nineteen years.
McCarty had made similar escapes
from two other penitentiaries. At
Saltwater he had been employed in
the machine shop and it is supposed
it was there he made the keys with
which he liberated himself and Juhl.
McCarty and Juhl were in cells
about 100 feet apart, McCarty in
gallery No. and Juhl in No. 4.
The escape had been carefully plan
ned. Prison officials believe the men
opened their cell doors simultaneous
ly and made the dash for liberty to-
gether. Pedestrians saw the gray
garbed men climb the wall near the
railway gate and hurry away in the
+ darkness. Both were model prison
ers and had been accorded privileges
of the first class. They had not been
obliged to wear stripes and conse-
quently were not conspicuous by
their clothes.
= McCarty and Juhl are thought to
have studied the movements of the
guards and chosen moment for
! their escape when the backs of all
rifle bearers were turned.
When the escape was discovered a
general alarm was sounded. Guards
on and off duty, clerks and other at
tachees of the institution were hur-
riedly summoned and the chase was
taken up.
Remarkable Criminal Career.
The career of McCarty was one of
the most spectacular in the annals
of American crimes. While serving
a sentence of eighteen years in the
state prison at Fort Madison, Iowa,
he managed to escape although close
ly guarded. A few years before,
while serving a similar term in the
Montana penitentiary, he had sue
ceeded in escaping. In all he served
four prison terms.
The offense which resulted in his
sentence from Hennepin county was
an attempt to shoot Patrolman Jonas
Jonassen at First avenue and First
street in October, 1909. A number
of holdups in that part of the city
had put the police on the lookout.
Jonassen became suspicious of Nc
Carly and attempted to question him.
McCarty drew a large revolver and
fired it at the policeman. BY a
sudden twist the patrolman escaped
the bullet. Sergeant Mike Lawrence
was near by and hurried to Jonas
