The walls around the prison building are high and dinicult to scale, and watch- men armed with rides stand upon towers rising from its roof, ready at any hour of the day or night to shoot down fleeing con- victs. it is six and a half years since Jackson and Thomas were brought to Trenton. They soon earned a reputation for industry and peaceabla habits, and during the put two years they have been hall runners and matters. Walters have the freedom of tin largest part of the prison. A stocking rnlad with Hand. In the gatheriugduak last night theypui into execution a plan which was to give them liberty. Capt. Charles Parker, a turnkey, aged 55, was on duty at the hpgs street doors through which arriving cou- victs have to pass. Thomas and Jackson were loitering in the hall near the door. Jackson had concealed in his shirt a stock- ‘ing filled with sand. .51ch movement made by Capt. Parker was watched by the negro prisoners. Tbs main hall was completely deserted of all save three men. Capt. Parker countered into the office of Chief Clerk Mullen to look out of the windows. Tho Turnkey Knocked Out. The chief clerk had gone to his home in the city. His office is in an alcove directly off the main hall. Capt. Parker had scarce- ly reached the windows when Jackson crept up behind him as stenithily as a cat. The sandbag had been drawn from under his shirt and was in his hand. With one noise- less blow delivered on the back of the head he knocked the turnkey down. The office door is carpeted, and the fall made little noise. Capt. Parker was unconscious. Thomas and Jackson rifled his pockets, getting a roll of money amounting to will), a silver watch and chain beside his bunch of kayo and a revolver. The Watchman Saw Them. The two convicts ran up into the second story of the prison and, entering the pri- vate rooms of Deputy Keepers John Cas- par and Johnson Bergen, stoic two suits of clothes, including spring ovsrcoats. Then they descended hastily to the main hall, unlocked the street door that was still un- grandad, and passed out into the street. 9 watchman on the tower saw two fig ures gliding along the street in the dark. neon. He had not the faintest suspicion that they were the convicts. The Alarm Given. The two negrocs made their way through the southern part of the city in the direc- tion of Bordentown, and they are supposed to be in the woods near that place. Five minutes after their departure Capt. Parker was missed. Deputy Keeper Mad den went into Clerk Mnllan’a office to look for him, and in the next instant the alarm was given and the entire force of keepers was astir. Capt. Parker, still unconscious, was put to bed, Dr. Reilly, tho prison physician, attending him. At 8 o’clock Capt. Parker revived sufficiently to tell what had happened to him. He said he always carried several hundred dollars about with him. Jackson and Thomas are each about 8) years old, and by the Monmouth authori- ties they are said to have come originally from New York city.

The senate hill nnbjectiug imported liquors to the lows of the several states was again taken up, and Mr. Morgan lands an argument ntznim-lt its constitutionality. He did not believe in any legislation of a general character by congress that birds local and peculiar operation. L'niiormityoi loglalation was a pro-requisite; but the bill now bsfore the senate could not possibly have a general and uniform bearing among the states. The right of free traffic be tween states was the very life blood of society. The pending bill was one or enable a state to interfere by its legislation with the right of its people to use ardent spirits. That might not be a valuabls right. It might be one that ought tabs restrained by law. He believed that ii the supreme court had taken from the begin- ningnproper view of the question there would not have been the slightest difficulty in according to the states the full assump tion of their police powers for the control “the trnfllc and use of intoxicnnts. He for one should not give his vote to enable any state legislature to become a legisla tlvc tribunal to carry out (like a territorial legislature) under the consent of congress rights which he thought it had under the constitution. A West Virginia Opinion. Mr. Faulkner expressed himself as in favor of doing something, of passing some bill that would relieve the situation which now confronted congress. The question had been discussed as if it only affected iowa and other prohibitory states, but it adected all those states in which the sys— tem of high license and of local option pro vailed. The decision of the supreme court involved the question whether or not a state could collects revenue from the li~ cause system or could permit its citizens to have local option or could prohibit the traffic in intoxicating liquors. He himself believed (as the people of his state did) that the license system as the true method of dealing with the question. The Rights of a State. Mr. Pugh held that opposition to the bill was utterly indefensible. The defeat of the bill would leave the states in s most serious predichment. He believed that the states had the power (without any legisla— tion by congress) to control the use of in— tnxicants within their limits. The cxer~ else of that invaluable right had been sus- pended by the decision of the supreme court, but its existence had not been af- fcctcd. Senator Blair‘s Amendment. "Mr. Call expressed his entire sympathy with the idea that the states had almolute control of the question of the traillc in in- toxicating liquors, and was willing to vote for almost any bill which would strain that end. Mr. Pierce spoke in support of the bill. Mr. Blair argued in support of the hill, proposing, however, to amend it by strik— ing out the word "terminated" and luscrb log in lieu of it the words “begun within the limits of the statsof destination," so as to make the policc‘powcr attach to liquors as soon as they reach the boundard line of the state of destination. Ilr. 'l'nrpio's Opposition. Mr. Turpie, in opposing the bill, hold that no state legislature could destroy the right of an owner of propertytoacll, pledge or give it away, and he declared that con- grc- should not conform its legislation to plane the transient fanaticism of such a state an Iowa 0n the contrary, such states should conform their legislation to the policy of the constitution of the United tea and of the commercial world. Mr. lair's amendment was rejected and the bill went over. _ In tho noun.
