At a meeting of the Council Iliuffs Grape
Crowers' Shipping association hold yesterday -
day afternoon the members declled to take
part in "Grape day" at the exposition ,
which has been fixed for September 16 , and
to make a free dlalributton of grapes grown
in this vicinity. The meeting was largely
attendedl , but considerable disappointment
was felt at Prof. F. W. Taylor , the superintendent -
intendent of horticulture at the exposition ,
not hieing present , as be promised. Circumstances -
stances prevented his being in attendance
and ho wrote to Secretary L. \Vi111ams
of the association expressing his regret.
Ills letter was read at the meeting. In it
he gave this stiggestlon :
There are only one or two matters that it
occurs to me you will need to consider. One
of tlieso is the exact manner hr which you
will put up your packngos in order that they
may be passed out easily and serve this purpose -
pose of advertising your association and the
individuals trim have given the fruit. As
to the number of packages , I presume it will
ant be necessary to do anything definite now ,
but , If the ovcnts are advertised as widely
as 1 expect them to be , and the attendance
is as good , as I think It should ho , I think we
will need a large number. I thirk other
grape sections are likely to participate also ,
and you will of course want your offerings
to stand up well alongside of theirs.
On suggestion of President ( less it was
decided to put up the grapes in cardboard
boxes similar to those used for ice cream.
A good hunch of luscious grapes , the best
that the vineyards hero can produce , will
ho put in each package and on Grape day
will be distributed from the Pottawattanlo
wigwam , As ( lie date fixed for Grape day
comes rather late in the season nod as by
that time most of the growers will have
their fruit picked anti marketed , the mom-
hers decided yesterday to each reserve one
special vine , which will not be picked until
the morning of Grape day. The fruit will
then he taken across to the exposition in
baskets and repacked there into the little
cardboard boxes , which will bear on the
outside matter advertising Council Bluffs
and tire Grape Growers' association.
The following were appointed a committee -
tee to solicit contributions of fruit from
the growers throughout the county : WIl-
Ilam Arnd , Charles Konigmacher and
harry Steiger.
Secretary Wllliams called attention to the
fact that the exposition management had
set aside September 2 for Melon day and
September 7 for Peachr day.
After the Grape day question had been
satisfactorily disposed of the association
held its regular business meeting , at which
Manager Allingbam made a report showing
that the sales of fruit to date had been
$13,250.16 , making it the best year the asso
elation has known. The gross earnings of
the association so far this season have been
$1,528.06 and expenses $700,04 , leaving a
net profit to be divided among the mem-
hers of $729.02.

Away back in the "forties" no doubt the

l ) VIt i'ILISON'ERS IBIIGAi ( JAIL „
Saw Their tiVay glut nud Are Still at
Llbcrt
A. Blaze , Joe Sldcnour , C flyruns and
C , Scoield , four prisoners at the county
jail awaiting the action of the grand jury ,
sawed their way out last evening shortly
after 7:30 : o'clock and arc atlil at liberty ,
The first three have been bound over on
charges of burglary , while Scoflebd is the
pickpocket arrested the day the circus was
here. Thomas Lorden , another prisoner
hound over on the charge of breaking and
entering a Reck Island freight car , was captured -
tured by Jailer Morgan just as lie was in
the act of climbing through the bars.
The escape was made through the window
on ( lie west side of the inner corridor , In
exactly the same place where several prisoners -
oners got out during Sheriff Hazen's term ,
At that time one of the round bars had
been sawed through and a flat bar had been
clamped with bolts over the aperture thus
made. It was by sawing these bolts that
held the flat bar that the prisoners made
their Cscapo last , evening , The prisoners
during the day time are confined In the
main corridor and are not permitted access
to the north corridor , the gates between
( ho two being kept locked with strong pad-
locks. Thu big bolts throngh which the
padlock passed on the south gate between
the corridors were sawed off , While working -
ing at the bar over the window the prisoners
broke their saws and in order to complete
the Job made Immense plaited rapes out of
their blankets with which they pulled the
bar whllo one of them worked on it with
the broken end of the saw.
The space through which they crawled to
liberty is hot more than twelve Incbes wide
and about eighteen ladies long , The drop
from ( lie window to the ground outside is
but a few feet , There were fourteen Prison.
era 1n the corridor at the time and from
one of them it > < 'as learned that Scofleld
was evidently the ringleader and owned rho
saw which did the work , From this man's
story It appears that the four men were
working the whole afternoon sawing the
bolts which held the bar across the window.
The sawing off of rho bolts of rho door
between the two corridors did not take
the mot more than fifteen minutes , the
saw , which was of the finest watch main-
bpring steel , doing its work as easy as
if cutting wood , While cutting the window
bar the men broke their saw and it cant -
t
„
F
eequently took them several hours to complete -
plete the work with the broken cad instead
of doing it in rt few minutes , as would have
been rho case had the tool net broken ,
Pieces of the saw and part of the nickel
plated handle were found by Jailer Morgan
on the floor of the corridor ,
( low the men became possessed of the
saw is not known , but it must have been
passed in by a confederate on the outside. It
is not thought likely that Scofield had it with
1dm al the ( line ho was committed to jail ,
as he has been there several weeks , and
if such had been the case he would probably
have used It before ,
Had Jailer Morgan not discovered the
escape when he did , it is more than probable -
able that several more of the prisoners
would have gotten out. Lorden had dlf-
flculty In crawling through the space , and
this probably delayed the others ,
Jailer At Morgan is a son of Sheriff Morgan -
gan , and le now serving his third year nl
the county jail , Last night's delivery was
the first time any prisoner has escaped
from his charge. lIe felt suspicious yesterday -
terday afternoon that some of the prisoners
were up to something , and was keeping hits
eyes open. lie was standing in front of
the Jail about half past 7 o'clock when lee
noticed a man jump over the fence at the
end of Dr. Ilnrstow's yard , which adjoins
the county jail grounds , lie at once rushed
round to the back just in time to catch
Lorden as Ito was climbing out , lie lost
no ttmo in pushing him back and feeling
safe tint none could get out.nny other way
stood guard over the window until help
came. The prisoners were all tut once
locked up In the steel cylinder and an Inventory -
ventory taken , when it was learned that
four of them hind managed to get away.
With the exception of one man , tiotie of
the prisoners were inclined to give any
information as to how the delivery was af-
fected. The police tvero at once notified
and furnished descriptions of the escaped
men , and Sheriff Morgan and his entire force
of deputies started to acetic the town , but
up to a late hour last night no trace of the
four m cii hind been got.

Increase Expected on Ac00nnl of Re-
iiilllrrarl en to Soldiers.
WASHINGTON , Aug. 13.-The Postomce
department is ill receipt of a letter from an
unknown correspondent at Seattle , Wash. ,
who enclosed $26.88 , in order to relieve his
or her conscience. The letter stated that
the writer had ten years ago robbed a country -
try postofilce of $15 , and this amount was
returned with interest at 6 per cent. It is
feared by the postomce officials that with
the advent of e. great number of letters containing -
taining money to and from soldiers there
will be an increase in the amount of cash
turned into the dead letter office. Mr. Mer-
ritt , the third assistant , said today it was
a curious fact that month after month ) the
sum turned into the dead letter once was
almost exactly $1,000. There were slight
variations , but it invariably closely approached -
preached tlds sum. Last year the aggregate
was $11,454. With the soldiers' mall , however -
ever , this monthly approximation may be
increased. It is recommended that now that
a great deal of money is being sent through
the mails , correspondents be more care-
( ul and see that their full name and address -
dress is included in each letter.

will be in and accepted within a week. It
is understood that the president contemplates -
plates the appointment of Secretary Day tea
a circuit judgeship after the work of the
peace commission has been finished. A
bill 1s pending in congress for the appointment -
ment of an additional judge for the Sixth
circuit , which includes Michigan , Ohio and
