MRS. NISBET DENIES KNOWING THAT TROUT
 WAS ESCAPING JAIL

Mrs. E. A Nisbet, at whose home, 27 West Madison street, Mrs. J. C. Trout had housekeeping apartments was frankly surprised when told that she had informed Mrs. Trout that her husband had escaped from jail.
 Mrs. Nisbet absolutely denied having said any such thing.
 "I called to her and said Jessie there is an auto out there for you but I did not say your husband has escaped for I knew nothing about that until the officers came for Mrs Trout at later hour that morning
 Mrs Trout sat stiffly in her straight little chair in her quaint old fashioned bedroom Above the door hung Home Sweet Home and among the other notices, was a colored card behind Mrs. Nisbet's own chair that read Thy Word is Truth" Attention was called to the decorative feature, but Mrs. Nisbet remained only politely indif- ferent. Her manner was unchanged throughout the interview. Did you think it strange that an automobile should call for Mrs. Trout at one o'clock in the morning."
 "I went to bed very early and had no idea of the time. MT. Trout is sick man and if 1 thought of it at all it was that possibly he had had an hemmor- haze. The Trouts lived with me last winter and while they were here there was nothing wrong in their conduct. Since the trouble Mrs. Trout has come back to me. She has bought her eggs and fruit of me which she has taken to her husband daily. l never dreamed of a jail break and when the sheriff came was very much frightened"

LOCAL MEN OWN
 UP ID AIDING
 IN JAIL BREAK

Out of d mass of cover-up state- mcnts, and what the officials term as deliberate lies. Sheriff Jeff Adams and United States Marshal Joe Dillon last night decided that they were working on a definite clue which would lead them ultimately to the source of ala to the eight men who escaped from the county jail two days ago.
 The entire day yesterday was fraught with sensational incidents for the sheriff's office. Early in the morn ing the officers were informed that R. R. Roberts, better known as "Blondy,' driver of a local for rent auto, knew something about the get away of tae eight men. Roberts was apprehended, and confessed that he had carried the men from Phoenix t0 the other side of Peoria and there left them.
 Roberts implicated one John Car penter, news butcher on the Santa Fe in the employe of Fred Harvey, whom he stated accompanied him the night of the wild flight from Phoenix. | Carpenter was arrested last night by l Sheriff Adams at Glendale, aboard his ! train. which gets. in here at 10: 90 1 o'clock.
 l Roberts Story
 Roberts informed the officers that accompanied hy Carpenter the night i of the jail break, he was riding about town in search of a couple of girls to take out joy riding. The two men were ! in the vicinity of Madison street and Second avenue. near the railroad tracks, when the car was surrounded ! by t,e eight men, who ordered them to get busy and carry them out of town At this juncture, according to 1 Roberts. Trout, one of the escaped men, happened to think of his wife and the fact that he was without a
 hat. He told Roberts to go to his wife's apartments and bring her and a hat. In spite of the fact that Roberts claims that he was so scared that he hardly knew what he was doing. he went to the address given by Trout there picked vp Mrs. Trout. obtained a hat and went back to the scene of
 the hold-up. The men then all crowd ed into the car, knelt down in the bot tom and ordered Roberts to get out O.

They asked him if he knew anything about the affair thinking that. being a train man, he might have seen something of them about the yards. He replied in the negative. and the officers never dreamed that he could have aided in their escape the night before After Roberts had implicated Carpenter, the latter was arrested and confessed that he had beer ir the car that night, and that he had lied to the officers about his knowledge of the affair He could not explain last evening why he had done so.

Sobbing hysterically and telling a disconnected story of her connec- tion with the flight of the eight fed eral prisoners from the county Jail early Wednesday morning, Mrs. J. C. Trout, the wife of one of the men who escaped, gave her version of the affair yesterday
 She drew her chair close to the bars, as if she would, get as far as possible from the cell where she has been held a prisoner since the jail break She shuddered as she glanced about the bare room, but her thoughts were not on the hideousness of her surroundings, but the reason for her being there.

 Following the arrest of Mrs. Trout she confessed her part in the affair, but has steadfastly maintained that she knew nothing of the escape until 2fter It happened and she was taken to join her husband by Roberts and Carpenter. She told of leaving the escaped men north of Peoria and then coming back to Phoenix, where gaso- line was obtained. After that the three went to a road-house on the Tempe road and remained over night. She stated that the men told her that the tracks of her shoes would be seen in the railroad yards. and that she haG ] better burn her shoes. or still better, bury them.
