Egypt Qll.) district.
Reed, Lane and Kuntz, the three
prisoners, stormed the guard, shoot
ang the three prison officials and Judge
Thomas, who was in the penitentiary
consulting client.
The prisoners then rushed to the
penitentiary Office and at the point of
revolvers forced F. c. Rice and Miss
Mary Foster, the latter a penitentiary
stenographer, to go with them to a
buggy near the penitentiary and get
in A bullet from one OF the prison
ers' guns entered the leg of Miss Fos-
ter. She tainted in the buggy. An
alarm was sounded and guards on
horseback were sent In pursuit of the
fugitiFes
In the meantime the sheriff OF Pitts

asked to quickly summon a posse of
gunner. Before the prisoners had
gone more than a half mile from the
penitentiary. however. they were over
taken by the penitentiary guards. A
battle took place on the highway in

notified of the outbreak over long dis

The first intimation prison officials
had that anything was wrong was
when the men grabbed the two guards
and marched them in front of them
into the penitentiary Office. Deputy
Warden Oates was in the office talk
ing with Judge Thomas of Muskogee.
AS the men entered they pointed their
pistols at Oates. Oates jumped to his
feet and began to fire, but his aim was
poor, because he was afraid of hitting
the guards, who we're serving as
breastworks for the prisoners. At
the second shot from Oates pistol the
men shot Oates and the others to
death. While they were fleeing in the
buggy. pursued by the mounted posse,
Miss Foster fell out of the vehicle.
Then the guards closed in and shot
the prisoners 10 death.
