CONNECTS NOT RECiPTURED.

LAittle Rock, Oct 1S.-J. A. Pit cock, superintendent of the state penitentiary, has returned from the Arlberg convict camp, where he went to investigate the escape of Yates Standridge and the four other con- victs last Tuesday: All of them were still at liberty when he left, although several sheriffs posses are on their trail
 The report recent published that Yates Standridge and one of the others were re-captured, and then es- caped after overpowering and beating up their captors is only partially correct. It was Tom Powell, the Craighead county man serving a life term for assaulting his own daughter and c. B, Ellis. a Pulaski. county man, who were caught and got ava, after disarming their guards and beating them into insensibility
 Many are confident that Standridge will never be, taken. alive as he has the reputation of being a most des- perate man.. who has, become ethors. oughly indifferent sto his own fate. The, escape was made not far from. his old home in the adjoining county of New ten, among the mountains near the Pope county line, and it is supposed that he has gone in that direction.

ing lost in transportation, a large

ECHO OF WARD INSANITY
CASE in MORTGAGE SALE
Fidelity Trust Company Pays
for Insured Title.

An echo of the court proceedings in
which William L. Ward, of East Or
ange. figured several years ago, was
heard when it became known that the
Fidelity Trust Company has just paid
$4,000 under one of its title insurance
policies to Reuben Sadowsky, of New
York.
Mr.. Ward is well known in East
Orange. 9 In 1907 he mortgaged his
property at William street and Ar
lington avenue, East Orange, to Will
lam t. Weyburn, and subsequently
the8latter sold the mortgage to Reu-
ben Sadowsky, of New York. Soon
afterward Mr.. ~Sadowsky had the title
to the property insured by the Fidel-
ity to the amount of $4,000.
Some time later, in Chancery Court
proceedings, Mr.. Ward was adjudged
mentally unsound. Afterward, in
bankruptcy proceedings, a similar
finding was reached in the United
States Circuit Court, and affirmed in
the Circuit Court of Appeals. As a
result, there arose the question as to
whether or not MI. Ward was of I'M
sound mind when he executed the
mortgage. and, if he was, whether
that affected Mr.. Sadowsky's title to
the property under the mortgage.
In view of those questions it vas
decided by the trust company to take
over the mortgage under an assign
ment of it from Mr.. Sadowsky, and to
the latter the company then paid the
face value of the title policy. The
mortgage is now held by the Fidelity.

HOSTILE WARDENS
FRIENDLY RIVALS
Asylum and Penitentiary Have
Each Two Heads, Pending
Custer Hearing.
ALL FOUR DECLARE THAT
THEY WILL STICK TO JOBS
Swap Stories and Cigars and
Exchange Compliments, but
Won't Bulge.

The Overlook asylum for the in
sane and the Essex county peniten-
tiary each had two wardens last
night. and although both were on the
Job at the same time. everything was
lovely.
"0h, yes, there was room for both
of u.s. remarked Charles A Stead
man. one OF the wardens at Over
brook, today, "and we did not even
have to sleep in the same bed.
Mr.. Bailey, who is after my job,
is an old friend of mine. and would
like to oblige him by stepping out,
but then you know I think pretty
well of this job myself, and while l
am willing to have Mr.. Bailey here
as my guest and swap cigars and
stories with him and show him round
the Institution, 1 most seriously OBJ
feet to his effort to Gust me from my
position"
Mr. Bailey, on the other side, hands
out a choice line of bouquets to Mr.,
Eteadman and insists thai he is just
going to have that job as warden of
the Overlook asylum if he has to
60 to all the courts in the land to
get 1t.
The double warden situation at the
asylum and the pe~nitentiary, for a
day at least, arose late yesterday
afternoon, when on the strength of a
writ of custer signed by Joseph P.
Tumulty, clerk of the Supreme Court,
Benjamin r. Bailey wen to Over
brook to displace Mr.. Steadman, while
at the same time Ferdinand J. Hosp
went to the Essex county peniten-
tiary and demanded possession of the
keys OF Samuel C. Martin. the present
warden.
In both instances the present war
dens received their would-be success
crs graciously, but refused to turn
over the keys pending a hearing to-
day before Chife Justice Gummere
onsa vacation of the writ of custer.
Bailey and Hosp were named last
january by the small Board of Free
holders as successors to Steadman
and Martin. The latter pair refused
10 give up their positions on the
ground that they were protected by
the civil service act, and as a matter
OF fact had been put in the protected
class by the State Civil Service Com
mission.
County Counsel b. F. Jones. acting
for Hosp and Bailey, had the CLASH
>ncation of the Civil Service Commits
sion set aside through c%ertiorari pro-
ceedings. it being decided that Stead
man and Martin were "offieers," and
as such were not protected by civil
service.
Quo warranto proceedings were
then started by Mr.. Jones to GUST
the two wardens from their offices,
and decision on this was made
against steadman and Martin a few
days ago, the final judgment being
entered in the Supreme Court yester-
day afternoon. Certified copies were
obtained by Bailey and Hosp and
served on Steadman and Martin, with
the result as told above.
