lice Leighton. his deputy and another
officer, simultaneous search was
made of the twelve prisoners
1t was discovered that two-foot
section Of two-inch ground pipe,
broken of at the rear of the JAIL was
! concealed as the implement to effect
the escape. Some preliminary prying
had been done on the iron bars that
guard the rear window on the court
house side. to loosen their ends. but not
enough to arouse any casual suspicion
from a distance Case knives with
edges fashioned into saws and other
! articles designed to aid in the dash for
| liberty were also recovered.
A few days ago Sheriff Shores learned
| that the friend OF a prisoner from the
| outside had smuggled in double
bladed hack saw. Fortunately the in
strument was found and confiscated by
! the sherin.
The leaders in the plan for an escape
are the two federal prisoners held on
a charge Of robbug the postoffice at
New Hampton and the negro accused
Of concealing stolen property. These
three were yesterday removed to the
upstairs portion Of tn jail. which 1!

| An attempt was also discovered t
force the huge lock in the iron gate
leading from the bath room to the real
corridor Every available article hac
been employed as pry or lever to force
the lock When the sheriff examined
tn ledge at the top OF the door he
found an improvisd saw and Other
articles resigned to aid in the break fol

BARRED OIL CONTRIBUTION.
Roosevelt Says Hs Instructed Aides &c
Reiset Standard Money.

Oyster Bay, n. T.. Aug. 20.-Moved
by the Washington dispatch in regard
to the report that Senator Penrose was
about to involve Colonel Roosevelt in
the controversy over the disposition OF
$4,000 Penrose Is said to have re-
celved from John D. Archbold in 1904,
Colonel Roosevelt dictated a state
ment
The colonel declared that, as far as
the Standard Oil Company was con-
cerned. he had specifically Directed his
lieutenants to receive no money what
ever from that corporation, and that
as far as he knew his directions had
been followed to the letter.
LAS regards Senator Penrose's state
ment," Colonel Roosevelt said, Il have
only to say that have not and never
have had the slightest KNOWLEDGE
whether he or any one else during the
campaign Of 1904 raised money to be
used IN carrying the state OF New
York.
But as a matter OF fact 1t happens
that In the campaign OF 1904 wrote
Mr.. Cortelyou saying wanted no
money received from the Standard OH
Company. aa. -
1T any money wasreceised from the
Standard Oh Compaey 1T was not only
without my knowledge but, in spite OF
my written prohibition. As for the
funds used or raised, in Pennsylvania
| I have no more knowledge OF them
than Of the funds used or raised IN
Ohio or Illinois.
I'm 1904 Senator Penrose was not
| the Pennsylvania leader. and as 1ar a.
| I know he was supporting ME simply
as all other republican senators-sen
ators from New York. Ohio Illinois
Massachusetts, and California-wert
| likewise supporting me-"
After making this statement Colone
Roosevelt read the following quotation
from a morning Newspaper:
| TT viii be recalled the campaign o.
1904 was enlivened at one stage oy
charge made by A. B, Parker. the oen
| ocratic nominee, that the republican
national committee was recelVine
large contributions from the trusts
President Roosevelt was thrown into
rage by Parker's charge and dared nun
to make good"
The colonel continues:
"This statement is not accurate. MI
Parker's charge was not that contrlnu
tons had been made to the republican
fund by the trusts. for 1t was openi'
and repeatedly announced in ever
newspaper that such tributions ha
been made to both the republican an
democratic campaign committees.
"As a matter OF fact. the contriou
lions to the republican campaign com
m,ttee when ran for president IN 1so
were, as I was informed by Mr. BIS
and Mr.. Coretlyou. only about one
third as great as those made 10 NJ
McKinley's campaigns committee i
1896 and 1890, and were less than thos
made TO Mr.. Clevelands committee
1892.
I'm my published statement. ::s.e
in answer to Mr.. Parker on NOV.
1904, I made the point so clear that
is impossible for any Individual
