PRISONERS IN
 SECOND BREAK
 FROM CITY JAIL
Four Escape Through Ceil- ing in Simple Method = Police Recapture Two = Keep Close Lookout for Others

For the second time within the last two weeks, prisoners in the city jail forced an exit through the ceiling and made good their escape. The repeu- tion of the affair a short time ago took place last evening at about 5: 30 o'clock, and in the same spot as the previous affair.
 The only difference in the method of leaving this time was that the pris- oners did not stop to cut hole through the ceiling, instead simply taking piece of two by four nailed to the wall, and punched a hole through the newly repaired boards. About an hour after the break, B. O. Lenoir and L. E. Baker were recaptured by Officer Papo on South Seventh avenue. The other two who escaped. J. T. Caldwell, negro, and l.. D. Hollenbeck, were still at liberty.
 It is thought by the police that Cald- well is the ring leader in the affair. He aided in the previous jail break, be- ing recaptured. shortly after. As soon as he gained his liberty last night he haded straight for the home of his wife, Marie Caldwell, a colored woman, freiquently charged by the police with being a cocaine addict. AS soon as he arrived at her place of residence, he administered an unmerciful beating, apparently for an unknown reason. and then departed The Caldwell woman was herself in police court yesterday afternoon, being given the option by Judge Thomas of leaving town or spending 90 days in jail. She was in the midst of her preparations to leave when her husband called upon her.
 One Made a Raise Quick During the short time which Baker was at liberty, he managed in some manner to secure $14.40. As he had no funds upon him when locked up yes terday, it is thought he had an accom- plice waiting on the outside. It was also reported by other prisoners in the jail that Hollenback was armed with a pistol, showed through the window of the jail during the day.
 '1t is inhumane and unsanitary to keep prisoners in the present city jail" said chief of police George Brisbois 1 last night.
 AS long as we have to let the men out of the cells for sanitary purposes it is going to be impossible to keep them behind the bars. It is the most unsanitary thing imaginable to keep them locked up in narrow cells all the time. The stench and pollution be- comes terrible unless they are allowed the run of the room. We simply have to let them out, and then it is only a question of their kicking a hole in the ceiling and leaving us.
 Were In on Varied Charges
 Baker was serving a sentence of 110 ] days for breaking glass in the city streets and driving an automobile while drunk. Caldwell was serving 50 days for vagrancy. Hollenbeck was being held for the department of justice and Lenoir was serving ten days for car rying concealed weapons.
 Every effort was being made by the police last night to locate the two men still missing. Freight trains were closely watched. At 9:20 a phone cal came to the police station that a man answering the description of Hollen- beck had been put off the out bound Southern acific freight at Third street and Jefferson. Phone calls were sent to Tempe, Mesa and surrounding towns for the authorities there to be on the lookout for the fugitives.
