CoNVICTs WHO ESCAPED

UNITED pnnss LEASED wrRE.l

San Quentin, Cal, Dec. 24.-James
Hurle and Frank Melville, fugitives
from the prison here, seemed likely to-
day to spend their Christmas as free,
though hunted, men.
From the moment when they complet-
ed their SO-foot slide down the rope
dangling from She top of the PRISONS
outermost wall, not a trace has been
found of either man up to the early part
of the afternoon. Warden johnson was
convinced, he said, that he had every
avenue of escape from Marin county
closed. Some of the searchers seemed
to think It odd, however, that so minute
hunt they have made should not have
uncovered at least a scent if the men
remained in the prison s vicinity
They declared IT certain, at any rate,
that they were not in the village Of
San Quentin. Every house there was
ransacked from collar to garrett, aud
not so much as kitten, 1t was asserted,
could possibly have been missed.
From San Francisco the quest ex'
tended out into the Marin county hills.
Not quite consistently with his ex'
pressed confidence that the fugitives
we're still in the county the warden
threw detachments Of guards across the
bay, into Oakland, Richmond and Berk'
eley.
The hunt began with force Of 80
mon in the field, but by afternoon half
as many more had been added. This
did not include n strong posse under
Sheriff Heating, Of Marin county.
Much uneasiness was felt by house
holders for miles around the prison at
the news that the two outlaws were still
at large. Both are known as absolute
ly desperate men, who win stop at moth
