Wagner, about 35, ran amuck and almost wrecked the base- ment of the Carroll County Jail yes- terday before officers subdued him with a stream from a water hose at the end of a 4-hour battle. State Police Officer B. C. Mason, called in by Sheriff John A. Ship- ley, tossed two tear gas bombs into & large cell where Wagner was whal- ing the walls with a 4-foot iron bar he had wrenched from a cell cot. The tear gas had no apparent effect on the man, although it almost routed officers from the building. Wagner, who had been released from the Springfield State Hospital on a habeas corpus writ April 11, was arrested last night by a city officer on a charge of fighting in a pool room and barber shop. During the arrest, he bit the policeman on the leg and also used his teeth to take a piece out of the hand of Harry Bowman, who was assisting the officer.
