When the train arrived In tbo vicinity of ( Jodnr Rapids the prisoner improved an opportunttv that presented itself to him and leaped out of tbo car window to liberty. Tbo authorities of Ccclur Hnpids made a thorough search far the fugitive , but with out buccess , and Sheriff Mugncr returned homo. Monday nlpbt at his homo in Sioux City ho received a telegram purporting to como from Council Bluffs , stating that a man wearing n pair of handcuffs bad oeen cap tured by tbo authorities bore , and was prob ably tbo one bo wanted. Ho at once telo- crnphcd Sheriff Hnzon and Chief Scnnlan that ho would bo in the city on the morning train , and asked them to hold the man with the handcuff ] . Both tbo sheriff and tbo chief of police were very much surprised to receive such a telegram , as no ouo of that description had been captured by them. With the morning train appeared bhoriff Magcer. atid bo was utterly astounded when ho was informed that thcro must be some mistake. Ho did not seem to have the lima to show the tele gram which baa caused him his trouble , and tbo fact caused a blight suspicion in the minds of those who know of the circum stances that the telegram might have coa > o ironi some oiusr piaco man uouncll mulls and that the address might have been misunderstood by him Is his excite * mont. It was the omnlou of Sheriff Haron , however , that the escaped priiouor had succeeded In getting ono ot his friends to send a bogus telegram in order to throw tbo Sioux City shcrlif off tbo track.
