Leo Duncan and George Hudson, the two prisoners who have been giving the county officers a great oVul of trouble by their attempts to escape from the county jail, fail ed this morning to execute another well planned and cleverly staged effort to secure thelr'liberty. Dep uty Sheriff Shambrook was lured into the cell by a clever ruse, and was locked In one of the cages by Hudson, and only the fact that Deputy Sewell saw through the plan, and kept the outer door un der guard, falling to go to Sham 1) rook's aid, as the prisoners evi dently thought he would, saved an other jail delivery. Since Duncan's escape several - weeks ago, and his later attempt at sawing his way through the bars. It has been the practice of the of ficers never to allow one man to enter the jail alone. Duncan's first escape was made by attacking Deputy Sheriff Se well, slugging him with an impro vised sap, and getting away into the hills where he was at large for three days. He returned to Rose burg and robbed the Penney store, and Mrs. Steele's home on South Main otreet, and was later appre hended in Umpqua Park addition. George Hudson, who was con fined on a moomhlning charge, aided Duncan In another attempt. It fs claimed by slipping him eight bucksaw blades, a can of pepper, rind a flashlight. Since that time Duncan and Hudson have been kept in close confinement. This morning Deputy Sheriff pham brook entered the main cage, while Mr. Sewell remained at the aulr door. Inside the main rage there is another large cell, which contains a corridor and three small Individual cells. At night Duncan Is kept locked In one of these small cells, and Is denied the use of the corridor. Hudson, however, has been allowed out in the corri dor. Wtun Shambrook went Into the cage Hudson said that something was wrong in Duncan's eel and that he feared the prisoner had killed himself. He said that there was blond on the floor, and that he cnlb d to Duncan and had been tillable to get a response. Mr. Shambrook went back to the sheriffs office after a flashlight and then entered the corridor, wh re he saw a pool of blood in front of Dun con's cell. He un locked the door, but as he did so, noticed that there was a dummy on the bed, and also that there was a towel hanging on the grating. He Immdintely thourht that perhaps Duncan hrtM agalr tried- to saw through the bars, and reached up to pull down the towel. As he did so the cell door was slammed shut behind him. and locked. The prisoners evidently had ex pected that both of the officers would enter the cell to Investigate the faked suicide, and that both could be locked up. When only one entered, thev still apparently ihcu?ht that Sewell would come to Shamhrook's aid. and that they could then, bv their combined ef forts force him Into another cell nnd could take their time In escap ing. Mr.. Sewell. however, stood bv the door, and kept Uiem confin ed, so after Hudson saw the ruse had failed be called to Duncan who came walking from an adjoining cell where he had been In hiding. Hudson, It was learned had fash ioned a kev from a suspender burkle, and had unlocked the pad lock on Duncan's cell door. The Improvised key was found by the officers. Duncan has been out In the corridor for the past three nlrhts. It was admitted. They trumped up the plan of lurlnr the officer Into the cell. and It would probably have worked nicely, except for the failure of Mr. Sewell to be enticed into-the trap. After placing the dummy skiirully in his bed, Duncan took up his position in one of the other cells, "where he would have been able to have slipped up behind the officers, and he and Hudson would have easily been able to lock both of the officers into the cell. The blood on the floor apparent ly came from d cut on Duncan's hand, and proved a decided advan tage In their scheme. The officers have exercised ev ery care in dealing with the two men, as both are ex-convicts, and determined to make their escape. No officer ever enters the cell alone, nothing metallic is allowed either of the prisoners, and their bedding Is changed every few days, while a dally search Is made of their cells and the cage. Hudson, who was confined on a minor charge, has proven to be the more troublesome of the two. Dun can although desperate and willing to take any kind of a chance causes the officers little trouble than the necessity of careful watching. Hud son on the other hand is surly, sour tempered, abusive, and continually finding fault. He Jg a British subject, and has never attempted naturalization and as a result will probably be deport ed. He was confined to the Wash ington state penitentiary for one year for moonshining, and was ar rested on a similar charge here re cently. He was found residing In a tent near the foot of Washington St, and a large quantity of beer and wine was confiscated. Shortly following his arrest, he slipped away while working In the court house yard as a trusty, and went to his tent where he secured several hacksaw blades, and some pepper, and a small flashlight, which he slipped to Duncan. Of ficers discovered Duncan's attempt to saw out and secured the hack saw blades and other articles, and immediately connected Hudson up with the effort to escape, evidence found In his cell linking perfectly with that found In Duncan's cage. Hudson was Immediately placed in close confinement with Duncan, charged with aiding a prisoner to escape, a crime carrying with It the same penalty as the crime of the prisoner aided. District Attorney Cordon stated today that Hudson will be taken be fore the grand jury and In the I event of conviction, will be sen j fenced, and efforts will then prob I ably be made to secure his deporta ttion. ' I Duncan Is held for the robbery of j several Roseburg stores. He Is al- leged to have robbed tour stores .early In April. He went to Coos I Bav, where he was Implicated In j several more robberies, and was f I inally arrested at Mnrshfleld. He jwas brought to Roseburg, and a few I davs later escaoed Into the hills, but douhled back, and performed 3 jand probably more robberies. He ! previously served one year on a I forcery charge from Multnomah 'county. VIM.AMKTK KIVKK OX IIS A.WI AL i.ami'A.k. (Aaorbtnl Prm Lrated Win.) PORTLAND, Ore.. May 18.

Six convicted of smuggling have 1 ben sentenced to six months im prisonment and three got three , months each for intoxication, j A far greater hundicap Is the prospect of a shortage of men in the fleet.

Dr. H. D. Sheldon, opened the case for the university after the board bad adjourned from Dr. Smith's office office to the assem bly hall In the school building ot Temple Beth Israel. The board at the outset, through Dr. Smith, announced that one speaker would be allowed to pre sent the case for each side and that Hpuuker following would be limited as to time. This Interfered In a certain degree with plana of the university, which had arrang ed to have the presentation of the case made by Dr. Sheldon, and the arguments on the merits of ita brief made by Jobn C. Vetch, an alumnus ot the university. Under the new ruling U uni versity waa confined to Dr. Shel don's statement which rested oa the brief filed last week. Dr. Sheldon was followed by Hector MacPherson, spokesman for Oregon Agricultural college whose talk took up the remainder of the forenoon session until noon adjournment.
