From Jail In Miami, Fia.

MIAMI, Fla. ‘AP)—Two men were arrested Wednesday and charged with taking part in a $35,000 plot that. freed from jail Canadian Georges Lemay who {s accused of a spéctacular bank burglary in’ Montreal.

One is a 27-year-old jailer, who

conveniently left a cell door open in the county jail, Sheriff T. A. Buchanan said. .

One or two other persons may be arrested later. the sheriff said. He added that police were working 6n some promising leads to catch the slippery Ca- nadian. ° 2

The sheriff said the $35,000 was offered as the price for lib- erating Lemay, who scrambled 9 feet down a cable Tuesday night from the seventh floor of the jail.

But the sheriff said the money apparently has not. changed

hands. He also said he did not |

know how the money was to be divided up :

The wo arrested: Harold Al. gar, a security guard at the jail, and Earl Mixon, 31, a for-

mer county policeman who now .

{s a jail bondsman. The. sheriff said Mixon also is a friend of Lemay’s wife, Lise. - :

If convicted of. the charge a” aiding the escape ‘of a county prisoner, the maximum: sen: tence would be a $500 fine and a year in jail.

The sheriff said Algar took Le- may from, his fifth-floor cell tp a “hold (cell on the’ grouj flodr-about 11 a.m. Tuesday. and left the: door unlocked. :

. Lemay then|made his way to the 10th floor, picked up the 114- inch cable, went down to the - seventh floor, lashed the cable to a plumbing fixture’ and’ low- ered himself out the window.

At least three persons watched ‘in amazement as Lemay nimbly ‘descended the cable to the roof of a shed, jumped into bushes on the ground 15 feet below and tumbled into an automobile oc- ‘cupied by three men. The eye- witnesses rushed to tell authori- ties as the car raced northward in a clean getaway.
