0f 375 prisoners in the State peniten-
tiary here who mutined last night,
while in the bottom of the prison
mine shaft, and refused to come to the
surface, or to allow guards to de-
scend. asked for a conference with
Warden w. H. Mackey this morning.
Warden Mackey informed the prison
ers that they could talk with Deputy
Warden r. H. Hudspeth later.
The request for conference is the
nrSt word that has come from the
prisoners who blocked the mine cage
Ht'the 730.foot level yesterday just aft
or the noon meal had been lowered
to them. The men were supervised at
the time by 18 guards, all of whom
were at the bottom of the shaft at the
time, and<who are held prisoners by
the rebellious convicts.
Made PsSess Before.
Warden Mackey said he believed
the self was part of
protest over shortage of bed sheets
IN prison cell houses.
Only recently, the prisoners staged
demonstration to stress their de.
mands for sheets, he said, shouting
and rafting cell, doors for the great
er part of a night. The shortage of
bedding, Warden Mackey declared,
was due to lack of funds In the last
appropriation by the State Legisla-
ture.
Entering the mine as usual yester-
day morning, the convict miners
went about their tasks until 1890
an, when the cage was lowered with
food for the shaft crew. AS the cage
reached the 730-foot drift II was com
mandeered by a group OF prisoners.
Large timbers were showed through
the cage framework, making 1t i'm
possible TO raise It. {.

caused Warden Mackey to proceed
with. caution in attempting to extri-.

make no effort to bring them out until
later. this morning, believing that
hunger would cause them to surren-

Frank Norris, convicted Of murder

warden said, and is believed to be one
Of the leaders In the mutiny.
Although the mutineers have a sup

the workings, the detonators being
kept on the surface and issued as
needed.
The prison is located only a short
