THE OMAHA DAILY SEVENTEENTH YEAR. OMAHA._ FRIDAY R — BEE. ] MORNING, JUNE 24 1887. NUMBER 6. QUIN BOHANAN AT LIBERTY. Oharlie Cook's Murderer Escapes From Jail at Nebraska Oity. GONE TO JOIN SIMMERMAN. One of the Guards Arrested For Liberating the Prisoner — A Number of Rewards Of fered For His Capture. Bohanan's Escape. NEnrAskA Crry, Neb., June 23,—(Special Telecram to the Bi:r. |—Lastnight, while the guards—the deputy sheriff and his assist- ants—were asleep, Quin Bobanan, who mur- dered Charlie Cook at Waverly, Neb., and who was confined in our jail awaiting the action of the United States supreme court to see whether he should have a new trial or not, made good his escape, and is now a free man. The guards were sleeping on the in. side of the corridor, ana it being impossible 10 open the gutes and doors from without, it 1ooks very suspicious and the feeling here is that there wust have been treachery done. ‘The city Is quite excited, and upon the sher- Aff offering a reward squads of men are now out searching for him, but the majority of the people are inclined to believe hie has gone mever to return. In his bed was found & dummy, and so well was it put together that the county Judge had to feel of it to believe it was not a human being. The bird must have tiown early in the night and was not discovered until breakfast time this morning. It re- mains a mystery how he secured other clothes which he must have done in order to use his old ones for a dummy. The sheriff of Lan- caster county, where the crime was com- mitted, has offered a reward of $100 in addi- tion tothe others. As the day rolied on the feeling grew more bitter regarding our criminals, and there may be a picnic in store for those left behind. ANOTHER ACCOUNT, NEBRASKA CrITy, Telegram to the Bee.|—~When Jailer McCal- lum made his rounds this morning of the prison cells, no response came from that of Quin Bohanan. From appearances the prisoner was In bed, and was at first thought tobe dead, but investigation disciosed the startling fact that Bohanan had escaped dur- ing the night, and had left a dummy in his bed. No trace of any kind can be found as to how he made hisescape. ‘The jall isa ver strong one, and 80 arranged that a prisoner could not liberate himself from the Inside, even if he had keys, and he must have had assistance from tho outside. Several years az0 Bohanan attempted to brive a former Jaller for his release, but his scheme was dis- covered Tn time to Dbe frustrated. ‘The sheriff has wired all over the county and all efforts will be used for his recapture, but there is very lttle hope, as few belleye Bohanan would ever be taken alive, judging from bis character and the hopelessness of his case. Great excitement prevalls and particularsare meagre. Bohanan was under sentence of death, awaiting the decision of the United States supreme court, Dick Glocke, guard at the jail, was arrested to-night for letting Bohanan out of jail, The other prisoners all assert that Glocke opened the doors about 9 o’clock last night and saw Bohanan walk out. Iv is supposed that he did the work for a money consideration from Bohanan’s friends on the outside. NG AT LINCOLN.
