PRISONER ESCAPES
IN RUNAWAY COAL CAR
BY Associated


JEFFERSON CITY, No, June 10
One prisoner escaped from the Missou-
ri penitentiary here yesterday as the
result of plot between three prison
ers to obtain their freedom by riding
an empty coal car down an incline
from the power house to crash through
the prison gate.
The car battered its way through
the gate, but overturned just outside.
One prisoner was recaptured and the
third had abandoned the attempt.

Word comes from the Denver wealth
er bureau that we can expect at least
10000 cubic feet at Yuma up to June
l9, but no intimation is given as to
whether this will be the last OF the
flood fer this wear, or whether this
will be the lowest the present flood
will go before the regular "June
flood If the present flood is the
regular rUn-off of the melted SHOWS
it is very much earlier than ever be-
fore recorded, but the general opin-
ion of the reclamation officers is that
we will have no further flood from
the Colorado river this year. The
river is roccding very slowly at
Needles, which naturally means that
the same process will take place here
at Yuma.

present flood reached its peak, the
depth was 6o feet.
Another interesting thing showing
the freakish nature Of the river, is the
fact that for more than three days

in three days after the peak, making
seven days in all the discharge was
1,002,60 cubic feet, while fer the same
days this year the discharge was LIP,
100 cubic feet, or more than in 1909,
when the gauge read fraction higher

An Economical Session

The special session of the leg:
stature covered just six days
and cost the state So, $40. 92. The
:, ms in this total are as follows.
Salaries of members So, 100;
travelling expenses of members
$3.469. 20; printing bills, ETC.,
S377.7 u; translating laws, 500;
publishing laws $3.50.
BY adopting the Governors
suggestion and making use of
regular state employees as clerks,
interpreters. stenographers, ser.
geants at arms. messengers and
pages, there was saved the
amount of 5000.
AS to appropriations, there was
provided from the funds of the
present year, not otherwise ap-
propriated SO, 1856. 26 to reimburse
the Water Reservoirs Income for
money drawn by the Soldier
Settlement Board contrary to the
inhibitions of the Federal Gov
ernment; so, 441. 43 to pay claims
on account of Soldier Settlement
Board incurred since the issue of
the temporary injunction of the
United States District Court;
81, 666, 66 for additional salaries
and contingent expenses for the

5000 for the expenses of a COM
mission provided for at the
special session and to be APP
pointed by the Governor whose
duty 1t shall be to make in
vestigations and recommended
tons as to our entire system of
revenues.
An appropriation of SO, 600 was
made for the building of sheds
for horses to be used by cavalry
troops, but no part of this amount
is to be expended until after the
Federal Government has issued
orders providing horses, equip
ment, etc. An appropriation of
500, 900 was made for q Protec-
ton Fund, this money being at
the disposal of the Governor in
case of emergencies which it is
hoped will never arise. As to
Soldier Settlement legislation, an
appropriation of $50. 600 was
made. The law, however, in
