PRISONER ESCAPED
 FROM HARTFORD JAIL
Three Hours Later He Was Locked
 Up at New Britain.

New Britain, Oct. 29.-Three hours after he escaped from the Hartford county jail, Steve Partylza was cap ttlred here and returned to that in stitution. According to the story told by Partyka he placed hand between his cell door and the jarnb when the doors on his tier were locked last night and the failure of the door to close prevented the secondary locking device from working, the bar failing to slip into it's customary groove. Partyka waited until one o'clock this morning, and then quietly opening his cell door went down the corridor and bent the bars of window so as to allow him to pass through and with the aid of curtain cords lowered himself to tho ground and walked to this city.
 On his arrival here, he broke into the factory of Landers, F'rary & Clark, where he was employed previous to being sent to jail. and secured an ov- ercoat and 8 pair of overalls which he had left there. From the factory he started for home but was met by Cap tain Grace of the police force, who recognized him and locked him up. When asked who helped him break out of jail he said God helped me escape"
 He was sentenced to Jail for tae theft of bank book and the secur- ing from the bank of $125 which the book called for.

Four Dead by
 Escaping Gas
QUADRUPLE TRAGEDY FOLLOWS
 NIGHT OF HILARITY.
GAS COCK PARTIALLY OPEN
Three Men and Woman Asphyxiated in
 Bridgeport Tenement =. Victims
 Were Merry at O'Clock in Morning.

Bridgeport, Conn.,. Oct 2e-When Iidor Bralus. who lives on the first floor at 271 Helen street woke l1p this morning his head ached and he srnelled illuminating gas. He did not connect the headache with the gas until an leading to the second floor, and there It was so strong that it led him to think that he had not heard the family living upstairs moving about.
 Found Four Lying Dead.
 He called, and getting no answer, went up. and there in a bedroom found Annie Harchasick, 45 years old lying on or the floor dead; her husband, John, 49 years, was lying dead on a bed. He continued his search of the upper floor and in a bedroom across the hall found a nephew of the dead couple John Preveusak. 19. and a boarder, John ketergar, P, dead, one lying on bed and the other on the floor.
 Gas Cock Half Open.
 Bralus notified the police and on their arrival they found gas cock at the bottom of the stairs leading to the second floor half open and the gas escaping. On being questioned by the police, Bralus stated that he last heard the upstairs family about o'clock this ali Saturday evening, and that the three men came in about midnight.
 Hilarious Before Retiring.
 They were all feeling in the best of spirits and soon after their arrival be- gan dancing ahd singing, making so much noise that Bralus was obliged to speak to them, but they did not stop and continued their merriment until 4 o'clock, when things quieted down and he did not hear or see them again un- til he found them all dead.
 Gas Cock Was Loose.
 The gas cock which was found part ly open was one that turned very easily and could be easily partly opened by anyone after it has been closed, and according to the medical examiner one of the three Johns probably left it that way. thinking they had turned it off.
 The police agree with the medical examiner, though they say that last Wednesday, when the woman's son was sent to the reform school for boys, that she threatened to commit suicide, but in making that statement she specified a razor as the means. The matter will be turned over to the coroner.

VISITED THE FLEET.
A Million Persons Attracted to New
 York's Water Front.

New York, Oct. 29.-'This was Fleet Sunday in New York. The great ar ray of battleships, cruisers. torpedo and other war craft, lined up in sweeping triple column on the Hud- son for review by President Taft on Thursday was the magnet which drew probably a million persons to the river front Thousands of these utilized the services of the countless small craft which dotted the river surface and visited the various ships. Other thou sands took excursion boats which en- circled the fleet in an intending pro- cession.
 The day was an ideal one, and the river scene, with the string of grim battleships stretching for five miles and more close to the Manhattan shore as it's central feature, was probably as animated and picturesque as any ever witnessed here.
 Three new armorclads joined. the column today. The battleship Maine and the cruiser North Carolina came in from the sea, and the dreadnaught Utah, latest type of the American na- vys fighting machine, left the Brook lyn navy yard and took-,her place in line. Tine new Florida, of the same formidable type, will follow suit to- morrow. Seven more destroyers. the collier Cyclops and the supply ship Celtic were the other arrivals of the day, making the gathering of more than 100 war craft summoned here for the review-the greatest in the modern navy's history-practically complete.
 Not one of the fighting ships lacked it's quota of visitors. In carrying them to and fro, the boat owners reaped harvest of coin which promises to con- tinue as long as visiting is permit ted When the visiting hour expired today the throngs remaining on board were so great that the boatmen, nu- merous as they were, were unable to accommodate them all, and several of the big vessels had to clear decks by sending passengers ashore in the ship launches.
 Tomorrow night the searchlight drillt will be executed by the ships with three hundred lights and the river Will be lighted up as never before, and on Tuesday night the electrical ilumina- ton of the vessels themselves will take place.
