Barr, head of the Jefferson county prison at Louisville. The number of prisoners has been cut down by prohibition, and the jail no longer pays its running expen- ses. Rooms are scarce in Louisville for the coming horse racing season and Bar sees a way to pick up a few honest penniés for his county. The rate, he says, will be $1 a day, “and guests may be assured of ample pro- tection.” The State inspector and examiner recently criticized .ailer Barr for be- ing unable to keep the jall within its revenyes. Barr is §$8,000 behind his receipts. He is allowed 75 cents daily for each prisoner. Barr says he has begged officials to show him some way to make both ends meet, and, failing to get results, he adopted the “hotel’ ’idea.
