CONVICTS ARE ALL
STILL AT LIBERTY

Little Rock, Oct. 19.-Supt. j.
A. Pitcock of the state penitenti
airy has returned from the Arl-
burg convict camp, where he
went to investigate the escape of
Yates Standridge and four other
convicts last Tuesday. All of
them were still at liberty when
he left, although several sheriffs
posses are on their trail.
The report recently published
that Yates Standridge and one
of the others were re-captured
and then escaped after over
towering and beating up their
captors is only partially correct.
1t was Tom Powell, the Craig
head county man serving a life
term for assaulting his own
daughter, and G. B. Ellis, a Pa.
laski county man, who were
caught and got away after dis
arming their guards and beating
them into insensibility.
Many are confident that Stan
bridge will never be taken alive,
as he has the reputation of be-
ing a most desperate man, who
has become thoroughly indiffer
ent to his own fate. The escape
was made not far from his old
home in the adjoining county of
Newton, among tn re mountains
near the Pope county line, and it
is supposed that he has gone in
that direction.

Mark Hicks Shot

This morning at about 2:30
O'Clock some one placed a ladder
under one of the windows OF the
county Jail and climbed up to the
bars, called Mard Hicks, a negro
who is confined there for shoot
ing Mr.. William Gee in this city
some time ago, and fired load
of buck shot into the cell occupied
by the black.
AS yet it has not been ascer
tanned who the party was who
attempted to kill the negro.
Hicks did not state whether or
not he recognized the party.
Night Marshal Litton was on
Elm Street and heard the shot
and started to the Jail. He saw
some one running from that
direction and ordered him to
stop and upon refusing to do so
Mr.. Litton fired on him. 1t is
not known whether or not his
shots were effective.
Six buck shots entered the
negro's left shoulder but it is net
thought that any of them will
prove serious. When the man
reached the window he called to
Hicks, who was confined in
cell, and asked hin if he wanted
to gel out. When Hicks raised
up out of bed he saw the gun and
hid himself the best he could.
