' Five prisoners, taking advantage of the absence of Warden Hall and six guards, who left today with seventy-one Federal prisoners for Fort Leavenwortn, Kan., attempted to escape, but only four left the prison after wrecking the gate. Convicts Harry Vaughn, Charles Ray mond, Iliram Blake, George Ryan and Eli Zieglcr, who were working close in side the prison gate, having secured pis tols and a bottle of nitgro-glycerine, entered Deputy Warden R.

Before Clay could raise his weap on he was shot dead. E. Allison, com missary officer who ran to Clay's as sistance, also was fchot dead. The convicts then rushed through the gate, dragging Clay's body with them. They slammed the gate shut and fasten ed it. Ziegler was left inside. The convicts placed nitro-glycerine under the outside gate, and blew an opening through the steel doors. The four men crawled through this break and dashed-through a number of ''trus ty" convicts who were working in the street. Almost before the four escaped con victs had covered a block, prison offi cers were in pursuit, shooting as they ran. The chase kept on for a dozen blocks, the convicts outrunning their pursuers. Near the Missouri Pacific . railway depot, the convicts came up with a wagon driven by urvme iane. .lump r into this wacon the desperadoes seized Lane and used him as a shield from the bullets of their pursuers, One convict lashed the horse into a run and escape seemed sure, when sud denly a squad of city policemen and armed citizens nppearcd and stopped the horse. Shielding themselves ns well as possible behind the sides of the ve hicle, the four convicts fought the policemen. ' '.'Volley after volley was fired in the street by both sides to the conflict. The policemen sheltering themselves behind trees, splintered the wagon, finally put ting a bullet through Vaughn and Blake, the latter falling to the ground proba blv fatally hurt. Then the convicts surrendered. Lane and his horse and convicts Ryan and Raymond were uninjured. The convWs Were immediately taken back to the penitentiary. Blake died of his wounds late tonight.

STARTLING REVELATIONS IN INSURANCE INQUIRY Bookkeeper Tells How lobbyist's Ac count With J. P. Morgan & Co. Was Closed Out Money Being Advanced to the "Judge." New York, Nov. 24. Startling devel opments were brought out at today's ses sion of the Armstrong Committee on Insurance Investigation in the course of a minute inquiry oy Mr. Hughes, coun sel for the committee, into the syndi cate transactions participated in by the New York Life Insurance Company. The most important witness of the day was Milton .M. Madison, a book keeper of the New York Life Insurance Company, during whose examination it was brought out that in the case of the United States' Steel Corporation Syndi cate, the managers of which were J. P. Morgan & Company, there appeared in one instance a profit due to the New York Life of $87,187, from which was deducted, no reason being given, the sum of $59,310 paid to Andrew Hamilton, who has been described in the course of the investigation as the "insurance leg islation generalissimo." It appeared from records produced by Mr. Hughes that an account of J. P. Morgan & Company . with Hamilton showed that in December, 1901, that firm had advanced to Hamilton the mini of $5,720, that on October 1, 11102, this ac count amounted with interest to $51),' m g1(, t,mt it wai, then cancelled by the entry of that amount to Hamilton's credit. The entry of this amount in the nc coiint of the New York Life read "as per cancelled statement and arrangement with 0. W. Perkins." It was also de veloped that the participation in the syndicate of the New lork Life was effected through the New York Security and Trust Compnny, by which one-fourth of the profits of "the former company Acre retained. Pressed by Mr. Hughes to tell whether he knew of any other instance of money due the New York Life being paid to a third party as in the Hamilton case, Mr. Madison recalled the payment yi 1904 of $40,000 to George W. Perkins, repre senting the profit on a loan of $930,000 to the Boston firm of Kidder, l eabody and Company. The profit, witness said, came in the form of a check on the First National Hank, which he cashed, giving Hie money to Mr. Perkins. What the latter 'did with it the witness did not know. No entry of the transaction was made on the books of the New York Life, Other witnesses examined during the day wero George T. ilson, fourth vice president of the Equitable; Francis W. Jackson, auditor, nnd (ierald Brown, in charge of the bond department ot the Equitable. No Fall Term of Court at Wilkesboro. Wilkesboro, N.
