Shortly after 8 o'clock last Friday even ing a boy ran down street shouting "run to the jail, the prisoners arc escaping, the prisouers are on the roof," and in a few minutes the jail was surrounded by several hundred men and boys of the towu. A new,five eightsincUropew ■ round htngii g Irom the north side, and it was thought, at first, that some ol th.i prisoners wore yet on the roof, but that proved to be a mis take, as the six who wanted to go had al ready gone, and the others were in the jail room. The names of those who escaped w.-re James F. Mills, ctargud with the murder of Dugan; T. J. Black, charged wiih F. «fc 8.. Jesse Smith, larceny ol money from S. McGarvey; Charles Miller, cnarged with F. <£ B . Joseph Gibson, chaiged with larcency, and Jaines Britin charged with larceny of money at Lowry House, the last two are colored men. At noon next duy young Geo. Liinberg. son of Rev. L., came to towu and told of two men, one of whom looked like Mills, having slept in their barn over night, and quite a party started iu pursuit through the woods north ea>t of town, searching barns, etc. as they went The party con sisted of Detective Allen Col Reiiic, Mat. Leible and Jas. Orris, all mounted. They went in couples, and when they came to an old vacant house uear Oneida station : on the Shenango K. R , Redie remained ; behind the house while Allen went to the j I rout, and just as ho reached the door Suiith cauie out. Allen covered him with his pistol aud ordered him to surrender, which Smith was willing to do, but just then Alleu looked toward the window aud saw tnat Mills had him covered, and he dropped oil his horse and rail back to Ked- IC; the track was theu clear lor both men to escape and they ran op the wooded ra vine, Mills leadiug. Smith got tired and bid in a fallen tree top, aud Redic aud Allen passed him, jkml followed Mil's who waded up the run and hid under a ruck, and his pursuers lost his track aud left hiin there. Farmer Hendricks and his son followed after the party and fouud Smith bid in the tree top,and brought him to town. Smith says that mills arranged the escape; that the hole iu the ceiliug of his cell was sawed by Black and others; that wheu everything was ready last Fri day eveniug the piece ol iron, which is only about a quarter of an inch thick, was broken out; that Mills let a string down from the back window o( the jail aud pull ed up the rope which was turnished by somebody on the outside, and it was slip ped up through the bole and tied to a rat ter near the hole they bad made in the roof, the end let down, the opportunity watched for, and when it came they went out. Mills went first and he followed, and as soon as he lauded. Mills told him he must go with him. They struck out lor the Soenaugo R. R , but made a mis take, as neither knew the road aud took one of the roads leading north from town aud went out several miles, then finding their mistake headed eastward and south southward and got to the hill north east of town about la. m.. They wero very tired and crawled into Limberg's barn ami slept in the hay mow till after 10 o'clock next day, Mills' leet were sticking out of the hay aud youug Liinberg saw them aud awakeued him, and not knowing who they were got them something to eat. Theu thev took off through the woods aud were restiug in the old house when Allen aud Redic came up to them. They saw them coming aud were about to leave when Allen reach d the frout door. Mills covered Allen, he ran back and they ran up the hollow. He was glad to get rid of Mills, who had a pistol aud said be would not be takeu alive The escape occurred about 8 p. in and just alter the Sberiil left the house, aud the family got their first word of it from John W. Higginss (iu jail for wife beating) who rattled the jail door till be attracted Mrs. Brown's attention and then told her that the prisoners were escapiug. Britiu was arrested at Callery Junction next morning by Messrs. Sutton aud Daub enspeck who had driven there during the night.and was broug.it back aud locked up; but be would divulge nothiug. Black was caught in a leed box in Renfrew. After the trail of Mills was lost near Oneida Saturday night, tracks were fol lowed through Clay, Coucord, Donegal and Fairview twps. to East Brady, but East Btady, but they proved to be those of a harmless lunatic.
