Thomas Graham and Israel Jones
broke jail last Saturday night and
made good their escape Graham,
however, came back of his own vo-
lition Monday morning and told the
Jailer, Mr.. Midkiff. the only reason

this condition and during the night
all that had to be done was to pry
the bars loose. One in the corri-
dor the remainder was easy. as the
plumber had made openings in the

MINES MAKE COMPLAINT
AGAINST I.-C. RAILROAD
Ohio County Operators File
Charges With the Inter-
e state Commission.

Washington, Dec. THE Will
liams Coal Company and the Taylor
Coal Company, of Kentucky, both
Of McHenry, Ohio county. KY. filed
an. expected complaint against the
Illinois Central railroad with the
Interstate Commerce Commission
to-day, charging, in line with the
expose by the Courier-Journal and
Times, that an injustice has been
done the McHenry mining section
by the railroad in failing to supply
cars to move the output of the
mines.
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission is asked to issue an order
commanding the Illinois Central to
furnish cars to the McHenry mines
on its line sufficient in number to
handle the full capacity of the
mines.
Little Complaint in Other Sections.
BaTbourVille, Ky. Dec. while
there is some complaint of a
shortage OF cars in some of the min
ing districts of Southeastern Ken
lucky, the facilities for shipping are
much better, it is said. than have
prevailed during some previous
winter seasons. There has been a
great increase in the tonnage from
Southeastern Kentucky lines, due
to the opening of new districts, but
few mines have been handicapped
by a lack of cars for shipping their
output.
The new Harlan county field is
now contributing a big tonnage
from several plants installed during
the past two years, while many new
mines have been opened along the
main Louisville and Nashville ex-
tension through this section.
Local operators state that this is
one of the most prosperous seasons
for years past. There is a heavy
demand for both steam and domes-
tic coal, at increased prices over
last years quotations. The Ken
lucky market has greatly expanded
in the North, and much of the ton
mage now goes In that direction.
