SET SEVERAL SHOPS AFIRE

Auburn, N. Y, July 29.-(AP)-
Fifty long-term convicts at Auburn
state prison yesterday led a revolt
of the 100 inmates, captured the
prison arsenal. with its stock of ap-
proximatcly 50 rifles and four ma
chine guns, stormcd the main gates; ;
fired several prison shops, with an
estimated loss Of $50O,O0O and shot
four guards, one seriously.
Four convicts escaped from the
prison in the first rush; two Of the
mutincers were killed by the fire Of
the guards, and q third was wounded
seriously.
A handful Of guards, two-thirds Of
the staff being off duty because il
was Sunday, beat back the first at
tack then, reinforced by the remain
ing guards, hastily recalled, and by
state troopers, they held yelling
surging mob of convicts at bay un.
til the outbreak spent its force and
quiet was restored.
The four convicts who escaped
were:
George Small, serving a term Of
IL years for robbery.
Joseph Caprice, serving 20-year
term for robbery.
Arthur Barry, serving 2o years
for burglary.
Steve Pawlik. robbcr, serving life
as a fourth offender.
Return to Cells
A checkup today showed that
with the exception Of the slain con.
yicts, one in a hospital, and the four
who escaped, every inmate Of the
prison was in a cell, although the
cells were crowded because Of the
damage to cell block by fire.
While most of the rifles stolen
from the prison arsenal had been
recovered, three machine guns were
missing.
Prison officials pointed to the
similarity between the outbreak at
Auburn yesterday and the revolt of
the prisoners at Clinton prison,
Dannemora, week ago. News of
such attempts to gain freedom
travels fast along the grapevine

In postponing the laying of the

Hoover himself remarked that gen

Further Improvements on Yards
'" de lie .s"s'e New e |"s. 's "'"'

Purchase Of II Of the worlds larg-
est locomotives to operate on the
Mandan- Glendive division Of the
Northern Pacific railway will neces-
state further improvements in the
Mandan shops and yards, according to
information received In Mandan to-
day.
H. E. Stevens, vice president OF the
railway, said in a telephone conver-
sation today "the installation Of q
new turntable and enlargement of the
present roundhousc is likely"
It Is rumored In Mandan that the
construction Of new shops. the en-
largment Of the present yards by ex-
tension three miles west to Sunny
will bring $50 families from Bratnerd,
Minn., to Mandan. Railway officials
refused to confirm or deny the rumor
today.
Duplicate Experimental Engine
The new locomotives are to be du-
plicates Of the Yellowstone type en-
gine, which was put in service in
March as an experiment. Exhaustive
tests have since been made In hauling
freight trains. and this locomotives
performances, as recorded by use Of q
dynamometer car, have been declared
entirely satisfactory.
The experimental engine has been
used between Glendive and Mandan,
q 2l6-mile stretch. where there Is an
undulating grade line, with control
ling grades Of per cent 50 separated
over the territory that it has been
impracticable to establish helper or
pusher districts.
Until this mammoth locomotive was
placed in service. the railroad found
it necessary to handle In two trains
the tonnage that was handled in one
train both west Of Glendive and east
Of Mandan. The powerful new loco
motive has demonstrated its capacity
to pull between Glendive and Mandan
in one train the same tonnage that IS
handled east and west Of those two
points. With the II new locomotives.
the Northern Pacific will have fleet
Of IL engines to handle the business
In this district.
