At 8 o'clock to night James Lynch and IS'lck Haworlh, tho two men under death sentences for murder, who succeeded in effecting their escape from tho state prison hen', wero still at latin'. Powes with blood hounds have scoured the hills north and cost of tills city without finding any definite trace of tho two men, and tonight the prospect of their capture Is not ) brliiht. Both of the escaped convicts are well armed, and, as they aro thoroughly desperate, it is believed neither will bo taken alive. Dayton, the convict killed by one of the guards, was buried today in the prison burial ground. When his cloth- lint was searched, a slungshot weighing about a pound and a half was found. A similar weapon was found in Abe Majors' cell. Guards Wilcken and Jacobs, who were wounded during the fight, are now in the hospital. Jacobs was badly in jured about the head, having four scalp wounds and a cut on the chin. Wilck en, who was shot while lighting Majors on the prison wall, has a bullet wound in the right leg near the hip, which may necessitate amputation of the limb. The wounded convicts are all doing well, and will recover. 3 The prison oilicials are unable to ex- ..ii.ii. inu' Tim nivn vi'ra urn. miiuiii'M into the prison, but ray the weapons . .. . . . i... were undounteiiiy lUKen in iiy wmi' vi tin- manv callers at tho penitentiary during the last week.

NOT TOO LATB YET. War Between Russia and Japan Can be Very Easily Prevented. Berlin, Oct. 13. Russia and Japan act as though either would fight if the other should hold immovably to the position taken at tho last exchange of communications. This is the actual situation ns understood officially from reiorts received from the German em bassy at St. Petersburg and tho German legation at Tokio. Yet this mutual at titude at hostile ireiarations by both countries is still regarded hero as not excluding an honorable arrangement. Neither covernment has gone so far that it must fight or bo humiliated, but cither cabinet by a single step can put the other in that position. This deli cate balance may, of course, be violent ly disturbed any day, ttiougn no ulti matum has yet been thrown on cither side. It is belfevetl here officially that war, oi.rtiiT.i I. nvnr u-nnlil lm between Rus sia and Japan alone, and that neither England nor France would bo involved. AID TO ALASKAN PROJECT.

None of those wounded, it is believed, nre seriously hurt. A posso of prison guards w ith several bloodhounds was promptly started on the trail of the two escaped convicts, but owing to darkness and the wild nature ot tne country in the vicinity of the prison, no results are looked for tonight. The outbreak occurred about 0:30 p. m., just as tho prisoners wero Wing placed in their cells for tho, night by Guards Wilkins and Jacobs. The affair went throuirh with such vim and pre cision that it must have been carefully planned beforehand. Two of tho prisoners overpowered Wilkins and Jacobs, tho former being hot and sliKhtly wounded and the lat n-r frk-htfullv beaten. The convicts took the prison keys from the guards and released five other prisonres, who had already liecn locked up. Tho seven prisoners then compelled ituani Wilkins, notwithstanding injuries, to march at their head and with the as sistance of ladders found near the workshop, proceeded to scale the. wall. Wilkins was made to ascend first. As the first convict reached the top Guard Xuylor. who was on the south wall, opened lire. This was the signal (or a general alarm, and several guards who were in the office quickly seized their guns and hastened to the scene. They arrived at the wall just as tlio prison ers were descending on tlio outside. Orders to halt not being oboyeiLa vol ley was fired, killing one of them and woundinc three others. Two of the prisoners were armed with revolvers. RUSSIA TO STAY. Manchuria Is lo De Occupied Perma nently by Czar's Troops. Jfin Chwang, Manchuria, Oct. 12.

Baron llavashl. today described tho announcement made by the London Daily Mail's oorresiHindent at Kobe, Japan, that Baron Do Rosen, the Russian minister to Japan, had presented a note to the Japanese gov ernment contending that Japan had no just right to Intervene in the question of tho evacuation of Manchuria, and characterising the pressed partition of Corea between Russia and Japan as be ing "fantastical and unworthy of con sideration." Regarding tho report that the Russian fleet had orrlved at Ma San l'ho, Baron llavashl remarked Russia had only about 30 warships in tho whole far east, and it would bo a physical Impossibili ty on account or coal and other supplies for them to remain at Ma San l'ho. It would bo the most unlikely place for them to co to even if Russia contour plated hostilities, as it Is within easy striking distance of Japan's strong naval base ot Tsu, in tho Straits ot Corea.
