An investigation proved -— I that the report was true, and that the escaped 36,416 | prisoners were among the worst criminals con fined in the jail. One or two parties who were walking in the neighborhood saw the prisoners as they hurriedly left the jail. One of them car ried a pistol that had been taken from the jailer, and they ran across the east commons, rapidly leaving the city behind them. An Enquired Hun reporter went down to the jail yesterday and secured an interview with the jailer. As he knocked at the front door it was opened by a servant. “Come right up here,’’ said Jailer Brooks, lead ing the way to the second story of the jail. “I want to show you exactly how it occurred. You see, the prisoners are allowed to remain in the corridor during the day and late in the afternoon I came up and ordered them into their cells. 3,643 26,370 26,535 Bkiitd to-day ** previously 25,971—26,370 Stocks on hand 10,124 Stock August 81, 1885, 350; received same day, 71$; total receipts 40,106; shipped same day 725; | Yeaterdav evening, as usual, I come to thiH front shipments 29,883, stock 10,573, sales 1,418; | cloor and ordered them into their cells.

They then took the key to the outer door and $46 in money from my pocket, and after re easing Livingston, who was in another cell, left the jail.

They choked mo terribly, and it seemed to me that I straggled with them half an hour, but no assistance came.

Jkrnioan, Ala , November 5. Enquirer-Sun: In up issue of the Enqihrkr-Sun, Ou jber 30th, contains an article in reference t > K. W. Chap man and myself which is wholly false. Chapman is still living and uninjured by me. As so many Arise reports have been circulated, uuii even gone topreus, I wish to relate the circuuisU.uce, and you will see that l acted only as a gentleman with any respect for himself could. It was the third time Chapman’s cows had been ou my crop, making quite u destruction of it. 1 went to him each time, asking him kindly to keep them out, which he promised to do, until the l3tli inst. I told him he ought to pay damages. He began to abuse and curse me in the lowest, basest language possible. He said ho would whip me. 1 told him I cid not come for a quarrel or tight; that I would run before 1 would strike an old man. and left film for home. He- followed me about seventy or eighty yards, still cm sing and abusing me I could take it no longer. I slapped him over, put my knee on his head, slapped him aeveral times with open hand, never kicked or knocked him, only slapped him. Next day O. T. Howard saw him one hundred yard* from his duelling walking. He has been up and out eveiy day siuce. 1 will refer you to the following gentlemen for my character uns also): Dick Linds y. Herndon Glenn. Seale; O. T. Howard, D. R. Mitchell, Jer nigam Henry Woodruff, Umpire mills; Col. Wiu. li. Biuiinon. Lee Kaufman, Columbus. Respectfully, J. li. Thomas. Juct. 1 thereupo wrote Livingston a note asking i overland to Nov. 1 1 1 Southern consumption to; plied that I y. j . him if t here was a conspiracy, lie there was, but the danger immediate. I afterward tried to get Livingston to tell me the whole scheme, but he declined to do so without first consulting his attorney. I then saw Mr. Slade, but he said he did not pro pose to give Livingston any advice in the matter, as he did not think it amounted to anything, and as he thought he hud done all that it was his duty to do iu putting me on my guard. 1 told him that unless I knew what the conspiracy was 1 would be powerless to prevent it-, but he still de clined to have anything more to do with the matter.” “Who were the prisoners that escaped ?” “They were Win. Courtney, a young white man charged with forging orders on the Eag.o and Phcnix: J. C. Jenkins, a white man charge *. with forging orders ou the county commission ers; J. W. Livingston, a white man, charged with burglarizing J. J. Wood’s residence; George Brooks, alias Miller, the negro charged with the murder of James Mills; Willis McAfl’ee, the negro charged with burglarizing E. W. Joiues’resi dence, and Sc ip Williams, charged with assault aud battery,” “Were there any other prisoners iu jail ?” “Yes; there were fifteen in all. Two or three others came out of their cells, but refused to go off.” Jailer Brooks’ eye was badly bruised and thero were several scratches on his throat. From what the reporter saw, he was convinced that no negli gence or carelessness on t ae jailor’s part caused the escape of the prisoners. It was one of those things that will happen occasionally in spite of all precautions. It was first reported Jailei Brooks lost only $<5, but upon examining his pocket-book, he found they had taken $40 from it. They also took a bunch of small keys. Yesterdav Jailer Brooks sworu out a warrant against Bertha Courtney, a young sister of Wm. Courtney; charging her with aiding and abetting the prisoners in escaping. She was arrested while at work in Swift factory by Bailiff Abney, and taken before Justice Wilkins. The ca e was continued until 2 o’clock this afternoon, and Miss Courtney gave bail in the sum of $100 for her appearance at that hour. Jailer Brooks be lieves she furnished the saw to her brother with which the prisoners did the work. Courtuey was under sentence of five years iu the poniteutiar;., but his case had been appealed to the supreme court. No reward has been offered for the capture of the prisoners and none of them have been arrested. Robert Downing as S|mrtacus. Mr. Robert L. Downing appeared at Springer Opera House last night as "Spartaeus, the Gladiator.” It would be putting it mildly to say that he acquitted himself in a creditable man ner. The fact is, his acting was faultless, aud he won the heartiest admiration of the audiuce. He, is unquestionably an actor of no mean abilil; and it will not be long before he will rank umo/g such leading stars as Booth and Barrett. He already a favorite in Columbus, but wheiY comes again the opera house will hardly/nold the audience that will greet him. His suj^oil is good, and we take pleasure in making special mention <>f the spiendid acting of Mr/ Henry Aveling as Pbasarius.

The Fire Yesterday. An alarm of fire was sounded at 3:15 o'clock yesterday afternoon. It was caused by the dis covery of flames i-suing from the stable on 8ixtt\ avenue, occupied by Eugeue Lawrence & Go’s dray lino. The building was a mere skeleton of wood work and in a very few minutes it was en veloped in flames. Thfe department responded promptly to the call and did noble work. One or two other small outhouses were burned, but the residence which was occupied bv Mr. Law rence was saved. All the fhrniture, however, was moved ijiro the streets There were 250 bushels of corn apd other feed for animals de stroyed with the stable, and two hogs in a pen near by perished in the flames. Mr. Homer M. Howard owns the property. His exact loss is not known, but it is mostly covered by insur ance in a company represented by Col. J. F. Iver- Your property may be the next to burn.
