Al tnuA OltNbil Oh MdlUlt jIttk,
deputy sheriff of Shoshone coun-
ty, was in the city Saturday night
with a prisoner that he was TAX
ing to the county Jail at Wallace.
The man is supposed to be j. Il.
Taylor, who, with a negro named
Brown, broke Jail at Wallace
Thursday night and made their
escape after seriously wounding
Deputy Sheriff Williams of Sho-
shone county.
Oleson left Sunday morning
ON the steamre Flyer for Wal
lace with his prisoner. He ar
rested Taylor late Saturday af-
ternoon at Saltese and brought
lhim here on the evening train and
is positive that he has the right
man. In spite of the apparent
accurate description Sheriff pfeil
was doulful and continued the
search for Taylor at Wallace, as
il appeared almost impossible
for him TO have reached Saltese
after being seen in Wallace that
morning.
I'm arunning battle at Wallace
arly Saturday Taylor escaped
rom Policeman Joseph Calhoun
after six shots had been fred at
him. Taylor was surprised by
Calhoun in the redlight district,
where he had sought refuge. All
the bullets missed Taylor.
The running fight continued up
past the O. w. r. & N. depot,
where Taylor took to the thick
brush and circled back into town
and the last seen Of him was in
the neighborhood of the public
library.
NJ. j. Brown, coiored, the other
jail breaker, was lodged in the
county jail Saturday, after being
taken from the Missoula freight
train at Mullan. After patrol
ling the avenues of escape all
night the Mullan officers were
notified by telephone from Stull
station that the negro was seen
TO board the train as it passed
through Stull. When the train
arrived at Mullan a search was
made and the ngro was found
riding in the fire box Of steam
'oller which was intransit. He
made no resistance to the half
dazen deputy sherin's who com
handed him to put up his hands
Downs clothing was torn to rib
IONS from walking through the
hick brush for forty-eight hours
md he plainly showed that ht
was exhausted. When searched
he still had Deputy Sheriff Will
liam's automatic revolver with
two loaded shells and the hand
cuffs were still on his left wrist
where they were placed by Will
Jams Thursday night just before
he was knocked unconscious b,
The negro.
Since the capture of Brown il
developed that the fugitives haC
changed coats. Brown gives q
different version Of the midnight
iscuflle in which Williams was
INoristed by the jail breakers anC
asserts that it was Williams OWL
lgun which was discharged in tn,
scuflle, the bullet from which
/ )lowed its way through Williams
| :lothing over his shoulder. He
also claims that Taylor had nc
gun and that he had none at tn,
lime Williams made them throw
| up their hands. When ques-
Toned about striking William:
the negro said he hit him with ;
rock which he held in his righ
hand, knocking him down, an,
hat he jumped on him in an en-
dcavor TO secure the gun whicl
was discharged in the scufile.
When Oleson arrived at Wal
lace Sunday with his prisoner i
was quickly proved that he ha,
ihe right man. After his escape
from Policeman Calhoun Taylo
followed Place Greek over the di
vide towards the ST. Joe river ant
stopped at Boyle & Callahan
