FIGAT WITH CONVICTS. Daylight Jail Delivery Followed by a Bloody Battle. Oklahoma City, Ok., June 30.— As the result of a jail delivery at this point at 6 o'clock this afternoon two people are dead and several wounded more or less severely. When Jailer Garver entered the corridor of the jail at the usual time to-day to lock the prisoners in their calls Vie Casey, Robert Christian and William Christian made a sav- age onslaught on him with weapons they had managed to secrete. He was struck a terrific blow over the right eye and knocked insensible. The prisoners dashed over his body and away to freedom, scatter- ing the people on the crowded streets and keeping at bay their pursuers with arapid discharge of revolvers, which, in some mysterious manner, they had obtained. Vic Casey jumped into a passing vehicle containing a man and woman, and at the point of a pistol compelled them to jump out. Almost before they had time to obey his command Chief of Police Milt Jones opened fire on the escaping prisoner, who promptly returned the fire. A perfect fusilade then took place between the two Christiane, Casey and several officers, in which Casey and Officer Jones were instantly killed, one man shot through the leg and a woman slightly wounded by a spent bullet.
