PROBATION SYSTEM PROVING SUCCES One Hundred and One Prisoners Re- deemed From 205 in One Coprt in New York. New York, May 24—A report on the merits of the probation system by Kings County Judge Hylan shows that, properly used, the system of great value in reclaiming persons not yet hardened to crime Judge Hylan has placed on proba- tion from his appointment in March, 1914, to April 1, 1916, 205 persons, ten of whom were women. Only si teen of these have been convicted since for other crimes or fof viola- tion of probation terms. Eighty-eight were continued on probation. of these 104 persons regarded as the failures Judge Hylan believes there is still hope for many of the eight- eight still on probation. Early this month Judge Hylan call- ed the 101 redeemed probationers together in the Kings County court house and talked with them person- ally. Many members of Grand Jury attended this meeting and were grat- ified with the results. “Most of them were at work or in business for themselves” says Judge Hylan, “and they were earn- ing on an average $14 a weck. Their Teports showed that the different sal- aries of the rescued young men rang- ed from $7 to $50 a week. Several of them were already married and a number had been married while on probation and had established homes; some had started bank accounts, one | having been able to save upward $500 while on probation. The placing of these men and women on proba- tion has worked a saving to the tax- payer of approxXimately $224.38 each a year. And, better still, has bright- ened the dark corners which were overshadowing their future.” ESTABROOK QUITS of | SPRINT FOR OFFICE | “Favorite Son” of Nebraska Voters Evidently Decides He Has No Chance Against Field. Chicago, May 24—Scratch name of one ‘“favorite son” as a presidential aspirant. Henry D. Esta- brook of New York and Nebraska, competitor of Senator Cummins in the primaries in Minnesota and Ne- braska, has cancelled his order for convention headquarters in the Con- gress hotel, and apparently intends to retire from the field as a contestant for high honors. At least that is the viewpoint of political leaders who gathered around republican conven- tion headquarters. At the Congre: hotel it was an- nounced that Estabrook’s headquar- ters were given up and that they have been taken over for convention week by T. Coleman du Pont, Delaware's “favorite son.” Mr. Estabrook was a candidate for the nomination from the beginning His name was on the ticket in Min- nesota and Nebrask “Tt is doubtful,” was the comment of Fred W. Upham chairman of the local committee on arrangements for the convention, ‘““whether Charles D. Hilles, chairman of the national com- mittee, would have put Mr. Esta- brook on the list of candidates for the nomination. Mr. Estabrook’s de- feat in Nebraska was sufficient to put him out of the running.” CASTORIA For Infants and Children.

O’CONNOR THREATENS HEALY IN COMMONS will Becomes Angry During Discussion of Prisoners’ Treatment But is Forced Into Seat. London, May 24— A series of questions to the cabinet ministers with regard to the treatment of prisoners arrested during the revolu- tion in TIreland gave rise to a con- troversy among the Irish members in | the house of commons late yesterday afternoon. Herald J. Tennant, under secretary of state for war, replying to Laurence Ginnell, had said that conditions at first were uncomfortable, hut that that was not the case now, when Timothy Healy, nationalist member for Cork, remarked: “Is there a single word that you are getting from Dublin that is not false " John O’Connor, known as “Long John,” who took a prominent part in some Iris scrimmages on the floor of the house of commons in the home rule controversy of the '80s, said that he had visited the Wakefield prison and saw some of- his constituents in- terned there who requested him to make public the fact that they were being well treated. Mr. Healy made some remark which could not be heard, and 0’Con- nor walked from his seat to the one next to Healy's saying: “What's that vou say?’ Healy made no reply and O'Connor's colleagues forced him back into his own seat.

A motion to reconsider the decision hy which the nomination was rejected two ;vseeks ago failed by a tie vote, 38 to _ The influence of the administra- tion had been exerted to overcome the adverse vote and Col. Roosevelt add- influence in Mr. Rublee's fa- vor. While in Washington Mr. Roosevelt was greeted by Mr. Rub- lee and the ex-President expressed regret that he could do no more than voice his indignation that the nomin- ation was being held up. The vote by which the Rublee nom- ination was rejected on the first vote 42 to 36, after Senator Hollis had changed his vote to make it pos- sible to move the reconsideration. The real alignment was 41 to 37. When the senate took up the con- sideration of the motion to recon- sider friends of the administration were claiming a victory for their man of two majority. The action in refusing to reconsider disposes of the case finally and the president will have to name another commissione He must choose one who is a mem- ber of some political party other than the democratic.
