TALLY-HO! THE GRINDER. erttecrnneeon A Returned Prisoner on the Judges and Commissioners——-How Convicts with Political Influence Get Out— Some Spicy Revelations. A New Use for Patent Clothes Pins—Ap- plying Them to the Ears of Re- fractory Prisoners. The reformation of the criminal classes confined im our prisons saould always be the cred Of thos» having ¢utuority over them, and where a word of kindness or a friendly act can accomplish | anything to make the e*iminal better, to awaken In his calloused heart a longing to change his me life, to rise ont of the mire of sin and above the stain that attaches to the convict's garb, it should be uttered or cheerfully tendered, instead of HARSHNESS AND CRUELTY. How often have incidents been qnoted to show that even the most hardened criminal is capable of receiving advice and acting upon it when it is ten- dered by one wh Taanner sows that he or she feels for the. misfortunes of this Class of persons, The most thoroughly informed, who have made prison discipline a study, concede that gentle at- tentions ant kindness can do more with most offenders than brusqueness and cruelty, but rarely in this city is this theory ried into everyday Practice, On the contrary, we too ofton hear of brutalities at Sing Sing, on the schoo! ship Merenry and Rondall’s Island, that indicate a laxity of discl- pline and an utter disregard of WHAT IS DUE FROM A KEEPER to the helpless victims tn his custody, The revelations made in the case of yonng Dunn, who killed a keeper in the House of Refuge for long vontinued cruelties, and the religious INTOLERANCE OF POPE JONES, have called the attention of the public to our reformatory institutions, which many beileve de- grade and harden the inmates in vice rather than inducing them to reform, Ramors of irregularities, of oppressions and of Insults to the defenccless criminals in other insti- tations have been rife at times, and many believe that a curefu) inspection of them would show that great reforms are needed itt the same brutalir ties would be shown to prevail more o' Eee any AND WORKHOUSE, kwell 's Island, With a view of oséertalning any facts on tho subject & reporter of the HenaLp wes deputed to go to the fsland, and, without divulging his motive, learn the actual condition of the prisoners, their treatment, &c., from them, This is a task of great diticulty, owing to the damaging revelations made in the trial of Dunn, which has put the keepers of the prisons on their good behavior, and the fact that the Commissioners of Charities and Correction AFRAID TO ALLOW VISITORS TO CONVERSE with inmates, and carefully prevent all intercourse, Nevertheless the reporter paid several visits to the {sland incognito, and inade an inspection of the Work- house, but was cautiously shadowed by the keepers, 80 that there was but littie opportunity to ascertain from the inmates their treatment. He, however, ws Informed by one woman who has becn there for some weeks of some OPPRESSIONS IN THE FEMALE DEPARTMENT that should be remedied, “Ave you treated well here?’ asked the reporter. “Pretty well, considering the hard lives many of us have led before we got into the embraces of ‘Black Maria” “Do you get enongh to eat?” “Whist! there is the head man, Mr. Kean, watch- Ing us; wait till he passes,” said the woman, as she disappeared in a cell. After the warden had passed, casting suspicions glances at the reporter, and being reassured by the vircumstance that a gentieman dressed in style, with hands encased in tight-fitting kids, and with- ut any note book or pencil, could not be a reporter, the woman came out and said to a lady who was taken by the reporter specially to throw oif suspi- cion and gain an entrance to the woman's. ward :— “There is usually cnough to eat, sich as it is; but @rrah musha! fat stuf it is, It ism’t Mt for a pig, except the bread.” “What is the usual fare—breakfast for instance?"’ “Bread, which is good and cooked on the island, and coffee, The coffee is horrible,” and putting her and to her stomach, “whin Latiempt to swallow It | IT COMBS RIGHT UP AGAIN! Sometimes they give us ‘nigger molasses,’ to Tender the meal eatable.” “What do you have for dinner?” “A chunk of bread and soup.” “What is the soup made of?” “The deviland tie cooks omy knows. It looks ike corn meal, water and onions boiled together into a hodge-potge.” ‘Do you get any meat with Ir?” motimes a littie rump beef boiled into scraps, It's what they flavor the soup wid.” “What do you receive for supper?” “Bread and the black coffee, we calls ‘TAR DROPS,” Sometimes they gives us some mush besides, just for a change, ye see, eh!” “What do you do with the sick? “They're taken out and sent to the hospital. They are all fetched down from the wards to the doctor's room to be examined, and many of them can scarcely walk that far." “But if a woman is so sick she can't get up to go to the doctor's roo.n, whit then? “Begorrah, there is no hilp for her; she must get ap. Them’s ihe rules, and must be ob THEY'LL FIX MER IF SHB DO» “How fix her!" “Force her ont of bed or punish her.” “Who are those women locked in the celia? “Thim's women sint from here to work as ser- vants at Bilivue and other institutions who don't like it, and refuse to work. They lock ‘em up as wvunishment, al) in one cil.” ‘And if they still refuse?" “Then they go to THE DARK CILL, nq are put on bread and water till they do,”’ “Show us the dark cell.” ‘The woman led the way to a whitewashed coll, into which the reporter entered; but the atmo- sphere, cven with the door’ open, was 80 oppressive that he could remain but an instant. Ten hours’ con- finement, with the light and air excluded, would kill or cure the most refractory. The only air obtained is by a six inch fue, running up through the walls. “How long do they keep them in that vile den?” “The time is forty-cight hours, but Mr. Costello, who has charge of this department, is humane, and ae, Bogda § ‘em in itat night.” fere eper Was Been Approuching, and the woman dodged into ler cell again. Proceeding to the chapel, @ number of female grispacts were found sewing.

Yon’re ar- ed and locked up at a station house with nig- and bummers, You'll send out by the door- if you have a dollar to pay for it, a letter to ‘our alderman or some good friend of influence, If it reaches him, when you go to court next morning you'll find the judge ‘absent by sickness,’ and the | alderman on the bench. The ‘cop’ will take you BEFORE THE ‘DUMMY JUSTIOR’ and make his charge. The alderman will give you hail Columbia; tell you you are an infernal scoun- drei who ought to be in Sing Sing, but as you are a man of family he'll only send you to the island for a week. You'll look blue and protest, but you will be sent down stairs to the cells. AFTER THEM REPORTERS LEAVE the turnkey will take you up and you'll be fetched face to face wit the magistrate ——"* Here the discharged man detected the reporter laughing, and, coming to a sudden stop, exclaimed with a profane preface :— “You've never been in @ police court and don’t know this, eh?” “Never!” again protested the reporter; “but go on, Iam just getting Interested.” “Well,” said the man, “when you get before the Alderman he'll discharge you, and sometimes ex- pect you to WAIT AROUND THE CORNER and treat him and his crowd. Sometimes your let- ter don’t reach, and if you are known to the Judge he goes through the same operation and you are discharged after the Court closes, (You must be a cursed 100] of a rep if you haven't learned this, the released threw in as‘a parenthesis.) But that’s not here or there. Perhaps you haven't got into the way of it. Oiten a fellow gets sent up as I was because I had no money to pay the Court door- man, who sometimes divides with the Jndge, to carry my message; all you've got to do is to Pur ON A Stu'k UrPRR A, tell the keepers you are acquainted with Alderman , or ——, and you want to send aletter. They will give you paper and send it. A Justice—perhaps the one who cursed you when before him—will Have you will find yourseli out ina few days, Then’ you are expected to send a present to the prison, cause you know (the speaker le@red Knowingly) them poor feliows on the island don't get big sala- »8, and they can’t afford to give every one paper and postage stamps at their own expense.” “Is that the way you got out?’ The man laughed and said nothing. Vell, how are the prisoners fed and treated?" pine of them do but little work, and others are worked hard. Lf a man is fool enough to talk back When (hey work him too hard they'll put him ina dark © nd give him nothing but bread and wa- ter—thut is, if he’s no friends to ask for gentle treat- ment; if he has, he can do about, as he likes,”’ “How is the food? Whatis thé biil of fa “Very bad. In the morning we are the hall, marched to the dining rooms, are cating benches. As you cnter the room an old woman pulis from ber basket a “hunk” ot bread, n. Wego inand find a pan ofr h and some molasses for our bread, ‘That is all we have for breakiasi.”’ “What for dinner? Any meaty’? “We get soup; 1 don’t know whatit is made of, but it appeais to be mea! with some kind of greens shaken into it, It isso thin that YOU COULD LOOK THROUGH IT from here and count the cobblestones in the streets of Gr point, Then they give us a simail piece of bread and a little slice of the meat with which the up was boiled, That is all.’ “AW! et for supper?” ‘ithe coffee js as black and ‘he oid stagers up there call it “Bour LEG," and it is about as black as that, It's infernal stuff, I tell you. They give us no knives nor forks, They treat some of the prisoners disgracefully—inhu- manly, Last Sunday w an old fellow who is kept at Work in the stone yard, who has NO SHOES NOR SOCKS, | and they won't give him anything to protect his fect from the sharp edges of the broken stone. His feet are th consequeuce all torn and lacerated, and le is unable to buy shoes or get put to work somewhere y Ise, “What is his name? don’t know, but I'll tell you how you can find out. His wife Keeps a stand corner of Pearl and Chatham sirect, and he asked me when coming away to see her and get her tosend him some shoes and socks,” Here the young man saw a friend on the boat and he_withdrew, the conversation ending. The reporter turned to a man who Fina come up and listened to a portion of the interview, and sus- ting that he might be another risoner, he was asked if that was his experience? The man replied, “I was in the hospital, but to-day I took dinner in the Workhouse, and I neither got any meat nor saw any given to the prisoners; I know nothing more of the management of the prison; in the hospital they use us pretty well; some of the fellers in the Work- house told me they are abused like as Mister, gant you give me @ ten cent bit to ride home when get over? Another rough looking fellow was found on the boat and interviewed, He dented that he had been @ prisoner, said he was a member of the old sty. ninth regiment, and had gone up to see a friend; “Bread ahd eotie flithy as | ever saw. ups of very inferior meat | had retired irom the benches | fix the matter up in a letter to a Commissioner, and | that the instt’ation work the men from five in the one un’) five in the evening, giving them only TEY/OR ¥I MINUTES FOR agi which ir,ery mean fare; that the coffee is dumped into t? 4 same pans from'which the prisoners take their soup, and that NO KNIVES NOR FORKS ARE GIVEN u prisoners lest they will use them on their k, rs. This man was also an impecuniovs fel- WwW, who would not be shook off until he had bor- wed twenty cents to ride home to Morrisania, On the Minnahanonck were 1 number of women prisoners, who are employed in cleaning the ves- sel. One of them reported thut the females who live on that ferryboat are well treated, and have privileges not zceorded to others, among which is TUE BOON OF GOING ASHORE when they lay up at night on the New York side of the river. She confirmed the statements of other prisoners us to the racter of the food given them the Workhouse, remerking, in her quaint way, “Its a crumb of bread, frightened with molasses, and soup made of cabbage strained through water and grease.”” “PALLY-HO” THE GRINDER'S OPINION, Tt is not at all uplikely that some of the returned “dvunks and disorderlies,” as the police term them, May exagg- rate in their descriptions of life on the island, and knowing that if they were aware that they were conversing with the representative of a great newspaper like the HERALD, they would be prompted to misrepresent the actual conditica there, the reporter thought it advisabie to win their confidence by kindness and sinall contributions of Money to supply their immediate wants, rather than to uncover his reai object. This was the course puraved with all, with the exception of the young politician who was so grat to Commissioner brennan. The same policy was carried out in coa- veiaing with so ot 7!'8 OLD HABITUES OF TAR I: that the reporter’s long attendan courts of the city enable him to recognize daily on tro streets of the city. One of these isa tall Iris! nian, Whose appearance shows him to have beon man of fine physique before rum sowed tn his cot stitution the deadly seeds of disease. Tulsa man ia a known east side character, who 1s only Known by the name of “Tally-ho, the Grinder,” from tue fuct that when on one of hia odieal sprees he roams about the streets yelling “fIy-ho! He stands over six feet in his sioes, and can swellow more fusil ofl than any four east side topers, Tal- ly-ho is not always drank, however, After a chronic Spree of some weeks, thal usally ens by 9 visit to the island, he comes out and tramps to the coun- try, where he will work industriously for a short period and then return to the city for ANOTHER “ROUT AT THE BARS! Sometimes when he finds himself ip need of a hath, and anxious to sober up, he will repair to a se!con and request the barkeeper to turn on the water rive hima baptism from the hose. This 18 usually the turning point in Tally-ho’s spree, und, sobered by adrenching from head to foot, he will hn ne for Westchester county for work, im familiar with the antecedents of 8 he was an expert poacher on the in Ireland, and four was sent out to this country at the LAND, at the public this celebrity say domain of Lora years ago he expense of the would be safer by putting the Atlantic and Patrick Delany, alias “Taily-ho, the Grinder.” On Wednesday morning, a! six o'clock, in the Seventeenth ward, the reporter observed this fel- Jow in front of a saioon receiving his nsual Croton dose of pure wat Waiting until THE CHRISTENING HAD BEEN PERFORMED to his complete satisfaction, the chronic drunkard started up First avenue and’ was overhauled by the reporter, who spoke to him Kindly, and invited him to take some soda at a street fountain, “Well, Tally-ho, drunk again? When are you going to quit?” | “That's hard to tell, I’ve finished this spree and am going to Morrisania now. If I stay here I'l) get pulled up before Scott and sent to ihe Island, ye know, and that’s not the thing, my honey.” ‘No, suppose you do not like the Island, ften have you been there #7 “Dunno exactly; perhaps twenty times,” “How did they treat you?” “Bully, old. fellow; they gave me a bath, new clothes and physicked the gin out of me every time. I tell ye it docs an old blister like me good to go up there once in a while.” “But are there no acts of cruelty practised there ? Do jenn not punishthe prisoners too severely some- times #”” “Oh, yea; but, ye sce, I alwoys do just as they want me to,and when them keepers commence growling and cursing at me I just lauh at ’em, and sing ‘Taily-ho, the Grinder.’ That outs ‘em in a good humor, and they let up on me, as long as I | ‘bey the ru The other fellerg dowt get treated that way always. Some of them, ye sea, DON'T KNOW THE ROPES, ‘y're nen of edereation and proud, ey damns ‘em they'll tyrn and give masic back, That's bad, and their goose ce. That makes the turnkey mad, and he'll pick and pick at that feller till he gets him so mad he does something to violate the rules, when they'll hustle him into a dark cell, that when I were last up Tom Howell named + ‘THE PORTICO OF HELI.’ Them dark cells ‘ll take the wind out of a feller. ‘Then they'll put him-on bread and water and place | in his cell m an oyster can or slop bucket. One time when I was there, over a year ago, g feller they put 1n the cell tried to knock the door dewn and made such a rac it brought the keeper. -They tied his hands and feet together, so that he could stand up, but couldn't use em agin the door, But his dander was up, and with his back he pounded on the door harder ‘an ever, and shook the whole corridor, Af- ter threatening and cursing him they found it no use, so they went away, got some of these leather cards, with small teeth in them, which they use to | card wool out in the country, and, taking off that feller’s breeches, they plumped it on his hips aud tied it fast the Then they left, when the feller, not knowing but it was A STRENGTHENING PLASTER THEY’D PUT ON HIM, turned around and give the door a hell of acilp with his hips that mace it shake on its hinges; but you better believe he yelled and cussed, for the teeth of the stu’ went deep into his flesh, You can bet the drinks he didn't punch that door any more, But they kept him in all night. Next morning, when they opened the door, he was insensibie, and the doctor sent him to the hospital, where I heered he died; but that mayn’t be so, you know, as them fellers up there do some tall lying. Ill tell you what I did see one day myself, as true as I’m a bum- mer. A youngster from the Sixth ward gave one of the turnkeys some sass for BEING SWEET ON HS GIRTL., that used to come down to the edge of the men’s workshop and chat with himon the landing. She was a pretty girl from Wooster street, and the turnkey was jealous of Jimmy and used to abuse him. Well, Jimmy talked back to him, when away he goes, and comes back with a pair of bracelets and two of them pateut clothéspins, He pet the bracelets on Jimmy, and I watched to see what the rooster was goin’ to do with the clothespins. Pretty soon he got behind Jimmy, and doublin’ up his cars, put one of them clothespins on each gar. Them clothespins held his ears as tight ts 4 tur- tle’s grip, and Jiminy gave up the girl after four hours’ agony. I've seen the turnkey kiss that girl often atter that,” THE HERALD DETECTIVE BADLY SOLD. Coming over on the Mirnahanonck on Tuesday the reporter’s notice was attr.cted to a man sitting in the stern of the steamer, Wuo, he was satisfied, | must be a discharged pr He wore shockin; | bad clothes, a dirty ant slonehed hat that looke | asifit had been ina pig trough for a month; his skin appeared tanned by loug exposure to the sun, and on his forehead he wore two sticking plasters Edging up to him the re, ort dropped fifty cents into his hand, with the remark :— é “There, old fellow, yon doubtless will want some money when vou get across to refresh the inner man. You've been on the Island, I see.” The man looked up with a peculiar leer and with a Hoosier accent responded ;— “Wal, stranger, I’ve had « lee experience over there. ‘Thank ve for the stamps. [ve not had @ drink for a month, and I'll smile over in First avenue.” He was drawn into conversation as to the treat- Ment of the prisoners, and recited in his quaint Way @ harrowiug tale of outrages and oppression, of whipping and bucking and gagging of prisoners, giving names and dates in some cases, and when | the reporter left him at the dock he felt that he had Made a good investinent of the fifty cents, and would embody tie information here had not a sub- tween it low and, boin's th’ blasted his hopes badiy. The following day, while standing at tl sharity Hospita! pier, a fashionably dressed gentleman, with cream-colored kids, a gold headed cane and a fashionabie and glossy silk hatand | diagonat coat, stepped up to hima, and, reaching out his hand to the reporter, rema “Much obli for the loan, s' As he uttered the words he withdrew his hand and left fifty cents in the reporter’s hand, “What does this mean’ I never saw you before.’ “Yes you did. You gave it to me yesterday going down upon the buat, It was bread cast upon the water. I suppose,” continued he, speaking in an undertone, “yon are on the same lay as myself— after counterfeiters, eit Here's my card.” He dropped his card into the harids of the bewil- dered reporter and disappeared over the gangway. ‘The card read ;— AOOOOE ELE EEHECONOOOROOOOE DED POO ODEE OEE: J. ty Speciai United States Detective, Washington, D.C, POLO ROLEEEDOLELEIEOESOOEOE DUET CO LEDS It is hardly necessary to say that the astonished scribe resolved that it would be useless to copy ont his notes of the interview with the man with plas- ters on his brow; but it is possible that the detec: tive has actually spent some time in the Workhouse and may have seen or heard of the outrages he 60 graphically portrayed in the interview, hile making the rounds of the Istand much was ascertained regarding the management of the Peni- tentiary, presided over by Warden Fitch, and the reporter made earnest effort to gain admission without making himself known, ‘Through the politeness of an old and courteous genticman named Whitsnan AN INSPECTION OF THE PENITENTIARY, tan hour when the inmates were out , and it was impossible to glean any infor- mation, Armed with a circular from the Commis- sioners instructing the oiicers to aiford the bearer all information and all facilitics to inspect the prison, the office was visited, when a MR.

And, although I had shown it to Mr. Abell, when I left the office, to look abont the grounds, he refused permission for me to leave the office,” The man smiled and remarked, “All you had to do was to put fifty cents or a dollar in the hands of one of the prisoners they keep about the office to receive donations, I tell you them fellows are a set of politicians put in there to make money. Pve given them money often and I have no troubie. If you pay for it you can send WHISKEY OR ANYTHING ELSE TO A PRISONER. It is the same as Sing Sing, About two years ago an old man who had 9 son at Sing Sing wanted to send him some deliencies, He gave them to me, with $40. I went up, asked the keeper to allow me to take in some oranges, lemons, tobeeco and money. He was very indignant. I slipped a dollar in his hand and got in, For a year Tused to carry nearly every week all T wanted to the prisoner, and nearly every time I took in a quart demijohn of whiskey in the valise.
