WALKED OUT OF SING SING ~~~ Henry Delaney. a" Trusty,” Left Prison in Novel Way. WORE WARDEN’S SUIT. Changed Prison Clothes for Mr. Johnson's While Official Was at Supper. (Special to The Eventog World.) OSSINING, N. Y., Nov. 1.—No clue ing prison euthorities which might lead to discovering the whereabouts of Henry Delaney, the “trust: who escaped from the prison laat night. Sev- Johnson that they thought they had seen the missing convict, but investiga- tion proved the reports to be. valuelees. ‘The Warden sald to-day that he believed Delaney had gone to New York. and that until he came out from hiding the chances of recapturing him were very slight. Delarey’s escape was novel in that he walked away dressed in a plain suit of the Warden's clothes. In this man- ner he was able to avold arousing sus- picion on the part of the hundreds of persons he must have met. Soon Made a “Trusty.” When Delaney. or Norton, as he was somotimes known, arrived at the prison on July 16, 1900, to serve a four-year term for a burglary committed in Brook- lyn he was put at work in the brush department. He worked so faithfully and his general conduct was so good that the prison officials s0on marked him an a man well fitted to oooupy the place of a “trusty.” Consequently, when owing to expira- tion of term of one of the prisoners @ month ago a vacancy occurred in ‘Werden Johnson's household, Delaney thy to fill it. As soon as breakfast was over Delaney would go every morning to the Warden’s house, where he spent the day keeping the order upstairs. Two other men—“trus- tiew’'—were also employed in the War- en's house, but as thelr work was in the kitohen of about the grounds De- laney seldom came in contact with them, It waa his duty to attend to the table and bed Inen, to see that the sleeping rooms were in order and to attend to the distribution ef the towels, He 4/4 not have to return to his cell in, the prison until 8 o’olook, His position during the day gave him free access to the Warden's wardrobe. Mew He Got Away. ‘When Werden Johnson est down to supper at 6 o’clook last evening Delaney was busy in the rooms upstairs. Noth- ing turther was thought about him until] Bo'clock, When the convicts were locked in their cells it was found that Delancy was missing. Word was at once sent to the ‘Warden's house. Investigation showed that Delaney bad left, and with him had gone @ plain blue sult which hung in the Warden's closet. Delancy’s own elothes were lying on @ ohair in the eorner of the room. Delaney had evidently changed his elothes for Warden Johnson's suit while the Warden was at supper and then walked quietly out of the house by the wear door.
