Source of the four revolvers which dealt death to a physician, a trusty, and four gangster inmates during a frustrated escape plot was being Investigated today by state and Marquette prison officials. Although convinced the weapons were smuggled into the prison by underworld confederates of the four Detroit desperadoes who killed themselves after losing their bid for freedom Thursday, Warden James P. Corgan Is baffled as to how the pistols remained undetected. Oscar G. Olander, state commissioner of public safety, and Walter Gies, a member of the state prison commission, are assisting Corgan in the investigation. a Guard Against New Break Prison guards, augmented by state troopers and city police, maintained an all-night vigil as a precautionary step against new outbreaks. The warden this morning reported the 937 inmates were orderly and undemonstrative during the night. The bold jescape attempt, foiled by use of tear gas bombs, claimed the life of one of Michigan’s leading physicians, Dr. A. W. Hombogen, former president of the Michigan Medical Society, and resulted in the death of Frank Oligschaler, a trusty, wounded while trying to beat off the killers with his fists. The other victims of the attempted escape plot were Joseph Cowling, a guard, and Leo Bolger, a trusty, who aided Oligschaler, both wounded, and Andrew Germano, Frank Hohfer, Martin Duver and Charles Rosbury, all serving long terms for robbery, kidnaping, or attempted murder, who shot themselves when the warden met their demands for a safe escort out of the prison yard with tear gas bombs and machine gun fusillades.

Killed as Whim Dr. Hornbogen, who was substituting as prison physiciari, appai*ently was killed to satisfy a whim of one of the gangsters, whose convict crony, Edward Wiles, died in the prison from a heart and kidney ailment several weeks ago. He was slain by Germano, at the Inception of the outbreak, After a preliminary investigation, the warden expressed the belief that only the four dead convicts were implicated in the escape plot. Fred (Killer) Burke, notorious gang leader, was one of the first Questioned. He recently began a life term for killing a St. Joseph, Mich., policeman.

Following is the explanation of Ripley’s “Believe It or Not” which appeared in Thursday’s Times: The Miracle of the Cross —The “Miracle of the Cross” happened near Montlouvon in the famous Chateau Thierry sector, scene of embittered fighting in the spring and summer of 1918. The ancient church was wrecked utterly, but none of the thousands of shells touched the crucifix at the entrance. Amidst the ruin and desolation caused by heavy bombardment the images of Christ alone escaped unharmed. This suggestion won a prize in a recent “Believe It or Not” radio
