Tascorx, Aug. 10.—[Special to Tne Bee. | — The penitentiary walls this forenoon wit- nessed another of the silent tragedies in which a convict acceptod the uncertainties of death for the sure prospect of freedom within a few months. Thomas Carroll, a con vict sent up from Omaha, took advantage of the inattention of his~guard, placed a rope around bis neck and swung himself into oternity almost within the sight ot his fel- low convicts and within a fow feet from the guard who had him and nis compasions ia custody. According 10 the statoments made by the guard and others at the penitentiary to Sheriff and Acting Coroner McClay, Carroll had boon looked upon as being mentally un- balanced for more than a year past. Last fall ho attempted to end his life by cutting his throat with tho ragged edge of a piece of broken glass. The attempt was a failuro and ever since Carroll has been kept out of the shops and given light employment around here his duties would not be agh to aggravate his mental dis- He always performed his work in a ctory manner, nover gave his keepers anv trouble and had' never lost any of his good time. Liis forenoon, in company with a numbor of fellow convicts, he was taken to the barn and cmployed in storing away straw. After working for some time, Carroll asked per mission of the guard to go ana get a drink} His request was acceded to and he was fissed for a few moments. As he did not return within a reasonablo time, the guard. looked around the barn for him. He was found hanging by a rope from one of the rafters in the Although but a few moments had elapsed since he had disappeared Life was already extinct. He had tied a perfect hangman's noose and adjusted itn a professional hang- man's manner.

The other day when a convict died ot blood poisioning it was asserted that he would be followed by two more within o few days.

Sonl was sent up from Omaha four years ago for attempted murder and has a twenty- Yeur sentence to finish. He is a victim of consumption in the most advanced stage.

They deny that the pm\‘lln' along the line referred to are unable, walls, for lack of tho proper facilitics, to ship their grain to®its proper market. They aver that the grain market for all of that territory is ecither Duluth, St. apolis or Chicago, and v the line 1 question hay or all of these mur Paul, Minne- at the people along easy access to any without the construc- tion of trausfer s hes. Referring to coal shipments the railroads deny that tho natural supply of coal comes from Wyoming, but on the ¢ claim that coal is laid down at O'Neill and Plainview from Duluth and lowa points cheaper than if shipped from ghe west. It is also denied that the lack of transfer facilities has anything to do with the beet sugir industry. ‘They also deny that owing to the lack of “transfor facilities it is impos- sible for people living along their respective lines to ship stock or grain to Omaha or to receive commoditics from that city, Ralsing the Poverty I'lea, But after denying all of the several and many allegations in the petition, the rail roads, by their attorneys, plead poverty as s good and suficient reason for not being com- pelled to comply with the new law. Lo orring to the law thoy assert that it has Deen in force such a short time, that it has not yot been published, and that they are not acquainted with its full import. They claim that the depressed conaition of busi- ness and the stringency in the money mar and the small amount of business now ng done by the two railronds make it impossible at the present time Lo ineur the eXpense necossary in constructing switches at the points * named. Th further claim that the business between the roads at the points named in the vetition d, ot and will not warrant such an expenditure at the present time; that it would be unjust and mequitable under the present conditions to require the railroads to make such_expenditures. Both raiiroads disclaim any desire to disregard the require ments of the law, but they ask the Board of Trausportation to consider the ut con tious before wequiring, at the present timo, the outlay of money necessary to put in the switches.
