New York’s Latest Jail Sensation M ay i Prove to Be a Canard. bLDBILL VOSBURG’S STORY. Chemists Think the Stuff Found Contains Nitroglycerin, but When Put I the Fire It Did Not Explode. Warden Rowe Alarmed. NEW YORK, Dec. 11.—-Some of the loamlike substance found in a. portion of the north wall Of'Ludlow Street jail after old Bill Vosburg had told the district at- torney that dynamite had been placed there as a part of the plot of the three postoflice robbers, Allen, Killoran and Russell, to escape from the prison was brought to’the health department today and placed in the hands of Dr. Martin and Chemist Perry to determine if it con- tained any nitroglycerin. The substance is yellow in color, and it contained con- siderable fiber such as dynamite cartridges are packed in. It was found behind a brick of the wall about three feet from the ground in the rear of the tenement 235 Broome street, back Of the jail. The chemical analysis revealed the fact that the substance was largely nitro- glycerin, and the chemist thinks the dy‘ namite story true. , ' Acting Captain Kirshner of the El- dridge Street police station and Warden Rowe Of the jail were on hand early to re- sume the search for the dynamite, which was begun last night. They removed the brick which Assistant District Attorney Battle had taken out last night, and then scraped out the yellow substance. There was about apound Of the stuff on the back Of the brick. Although other bricks in various parts of the wall had been removed, that was the only place where any suspicious looking substance was discovered. The stuff was taken out with thoutmost care. laptain Kirshner stood from the wall at arm’s length and then scraped the opening with a small chisel. Officers Frightened. After getting about two ounces Of the substance Captain Kirshner took it to po- lice headquarters. The substance found today ‘was different somewhat from that taken out Of the wall last night. It eon- tained more Of the loam and less of the fiber and looked as though it might’ con- tain nitroglycerin. Captain Kirshner, although inclined to doubt the dynamite story, was extremely careful how he handled the stuff. "What bothers me most,” he said, “is why the pal of the postofiice robbers should put dynamite in the wall here, where any one in the house might see him, when he could just as well have placed it in one of the wood sheds, where he could have worked without fear of dis- covery.” Warden Rowe has been in a very nerv— ous state ever since he heard of the dyna- mite story. Hc said that he would wait until the analysis of the substance found had been made, and then if it proved to be dynamite he would order that portion of the wall torn away for a radius of two feet. The jail is bounded. by Essex, Ludlow. Brocme and Grand streets. The north Wall is built along the yards Of the Brooms street tenements and extends back to the Essex Market prison. It is about 5 feet thick at the bottOm and is supposed to prevent any escape from the jailyard. Bill Vosburg’s Story. According to the story told by old Bill Vosburg, a man known as the Kid had been persuaded by Allen, Killoran and Russell to place a quantity of dynmite in the north wall to aid them to escape. The dynamite was to have been exploded, Vos- burg says, while the postoffice robbers Were in the jailyard. They hoped that it would blow away a sufficient portion of the wall to enable them to make good their escape. 2.. . Vosburg Was found today While walking about the corridor of the Tombs. .' “I don’t know an'ything about the dynamite plot,” he said. “I only heard about it after my son-in-law, Russell, got out. He told me that a. quantity had been placed in the north wall of the jail in June. That is all I'know." Vosburg is now awaiting sentence for green goods swindling. He has .told all the secrets Of the escape of the three rob. bers from the jail on July 4 last and the other day told the district attorney of the dynamite plots. . After Vosburg’s story had spread about the neighborhood of the jail there was con- siderable anxiety shown by the persons living in the Broome street tenements, especially those in 235. The house is five stories high. There/are 20 families living there. _ Captain Kirshner after arriving at po- lice headquarters with his find held a. con- sultation with Inspector Cortright and Chief Conlin. Inspector Cortright took some of the substance found and dropped a little of it in the open fire. It did not explode. ' Yale Clubs to Go South.

Semi of Terror. in Paris is commonly overlooked. But it was quite natural. The greater part of those grandees who fled or went in-’ to hiding kept dogs, and very few of them were able to make any arrange- ‘ -ment fbr the poor beasts when they left home. The dogs, abandoned, took. to the streets, Of course, and shortly they be- gan tocongregate in two packs, one 0c- cupying the . Champs Elysees and one the Bois de Boulogne. Soon they became a. public danger. Carlyle pokes fun at Santerre, the, brewer, who proposed a law that all dogs should be hanged; he had not noticed the paragraphs in the newspapers telling how people had been attacked in the Champs Elysees. At length the situatiOn became really grave, as is easily understood when thousands of starving animals have to find subsistence in a starving city. Many' of them were wolf hounds and of pow- erful fighting breeds. SO in September, 1793, drastic measures were taken against the Champs Elysees pack. Two battalions of the national guard surrounded the area, leaving a gap to- ward the Rue Royals, while multitudes Of ragamufiins beat the cover. The game was driven up the Rue Royals to the Place Royals, where troops made a bat- tue of it, firing volleys. Three days con- secutively this Operation was repeated, and more than 3,000 'dead dogs ‘lay in the place. ‘ A certain Gaspardin received orders to clear them away, and be, short of means, applied for theroyal equipages. It was a timely jest, greeted with ap- plause. SO M. Gaspardin packed the dead do’gs neck and heels in gilded coaches as full as they would hold and made a state procession through delight- ed Paris. —-Pearson’s Weekly. ’ HlS GRACE’S SUSPENDERS. Clever Ruse by Which \Vellington’s Auto- graph Was Sécured. It is well known that toward the lat- ter years of the Duke of Wellington’s life it was next to impossible to coax or Wheedle his autograph out of him. All . the strata ems used to get a reply from him to lo ters failed; be either did not answer them at all Or directed his pri- vate secretary to do so, and thus the fa- mous signature Of “Wellington” became a rarity highly prized by collectors. Apropos Of this Answers tells of a London lady who had an album gar- nished With the autographs of most of the great men Of the day, but wanted that Of the “Great Captain. ” She men- tioned her distress to a friend, a certain Mr. 11, and a few days after he, to her great surprise and pleasure, brought her a note from the hand of the victor of Waterloo. It ran thus: “Field Marshal the Duke of Welling- ton never Ordered a pair of braces of the Messrs. Simpkin. If F. M. the Duke Of Wellington had ordered the articles, he could not forget it. F. M. the Duke of Wellington always pays for his braces. ” This was a very odd document for a lady’s album, but its authenticity was undoubted, and it therefore found the best place in the interesting collection. The way in which this singular note was elicited was this: Mr. H. filled up one of the bankruptcy court forms and signed it, informing the duke that in winding up the affairs of 'Messrs. Simpkin he (the assignee) found on their books the sum of 6s. 6d. due by his grace for' a pair of braces, which he requested the duke would im- mediately pay or have paid. Mr. H. ’s ruse was founded on pure fiction, but it succeeded. .. Factory Buildings. One of the most perplexing problems that the mechanical engineer or the su- perintendent Of a manufacturing estab- lishment encounters is the dovetailing Of new buildings upon Old ones so as to work in harmony with them and at the , same time introduce such improve- ments as may be necessary. Frequently half a dozen buildings are erected On a large plot of ground, each building fac- ing in a way that seems most conven- ient at the time and Without any particu- lar reference to the others. When the establishment has grown so that the available ground area must be nearly covered over with buildings and each one must, either by shafting or belting, be connected with its neighbor or with some central source Of power, then the trouble arising from lack Of harmony in the original structures makesitself felt in amost aggravating manner. It seems sometimes as though trouble had been created on purpose by those who first erected the shops, so aggravating and uncompromising do the buildings ap- pear. The moral therefore is that in putting up 'a shop it is well to think a long way ahead and to consider at least sOme of the most probable contingencies of the future. —+Cassier’s Magazine. One of 'Fleld’s Pranks, , A story that has- be‘enwritten about Field concerns the trick he played on two car loads of Kansas City merchants who went away one time on an excur- sion. route, and the cars separated at an early hour in the morning when everybody was asleep, except Gene Field, who was along to Write up‘the trip. Just before the cars parted company he carried all the shoes from one sleeper into the other and carefully exchanged them. Thbn he took the shops from the sleeper that had a double supply and carried them into the sleeper where nobody had any shoes. The next morning thereuwas a blue streak two ways across Kansas. .Every man in both sleepers was miles ' and miles away fr’gm his own shoes. , 4 Diplomatic. - ‘ Miss Playne—Is it true that you said the mere sight- Of my face would make a man climb a. fence? _ « " Hargreaves—I—er—I meant, course, if the man waslon the other side of the fence. +Cincinnati , Enquirer. ’ Each car was to go by a different ‘ Of' .

I solemnly appeal to the people in every locality, and to the Officers of the state, for faithful, energetic ,and fearless en- forcement of the law. Nothing can be moreeliective in the suppression of crime than the cultivation and expression of a. healthy public sentiment which will hold in just execration every criminal, more especially the murderer and assassin. “Mob violence, which has its home in the breasts Of cowards, should be prevent- ed at all hazards, and, if committed, should be properly and severely punished. , Such action is"an open declaration of the ' want Of confidence in the courts, and, in- stead Of promoting, does serious injury to the welfare of the state.
