STELDT PONDERS FIFTH CHANGE IN PLEA 10 CHARGE H. Stldt. held In the county Jail on a forgery charge, who Saturday tried to cape nnd attempted a aui-' clde hoax, was considering entering a n'f.i of eullty tnday. A week ago, he changed his plea from guilty ro: "not guilty by reason of lnajilty."i He has changed nls plea four times j since Incarceration. i St eld t. while receiving medical at-1 tentlon Saturday in the county health' department, made a break and ran two blocka before he was captured by Jailer Fred Kelly and Sheriff Walter Olmscheld. The prisoner pained powesslon of a safety razor blade and scratched hi! wrists, in an effort to fclRn a suicide1 try. There was no reason why Steldt could not have cut his wrist arteries had ho really tried, orilcers said. Steldt now faces, besides the forg ery charge, a new charge of escaping also a. felony under Oregon law. He is wanted In Salem and Roseburg on forgery charges and has a long prison record. Steldt also charged that Jailer Kelly had mistreated him and placed htm In solitary confinement. Jail prisoners state that St-oldt was held away from the other prisoners as a matter of health protection and that tho Jailer nover abused him. It seems that Steldt Is not very popular with his prison mates. Authorities say that Steldt'a vac cllatlon about his guilt or innocence Is due to a dislike to going to state prison. ! t?ri i DEUOOUS ....
