TOMBS PRISON “FUL OF EVILS } Grand Jory Recommends That Nomerous Changes Be” Made at Once. oid MORE CELLS WANTED, Two Prisoners Obliged to Sleep With One’s Head to the Other's Feet. 27 MEN REST IN A 12X25 ROOM. ep Mere Box for a Hospital and the Small Ten-Day Cell Sometim Contains 150 Men. The Grand Jury to-day handed in a presentment against the Tombs. prison. The committee visited the jail on June 2% and made a thorough examination. They say that owing to the building having been erected on the site of what was the collect pond the main building has so settled at each end that the heavy walls are cracked almost from roof to foundation. * The prison at the time of tte erection ing 1888 had: 143 cells for males and 30 Since that time they there have been added about 80 cell ‘These with 42 cells for boys, make a to- tal of 295, while the population of the city has increased from 300,000 to 1,800, 000, Continuing, the presentment “During the month of May the num- ber of prisoners confined in the Tombs averaged about 600 at a time. On May % the number was 365, owing to the special efforts of our Grand Jury to re- duce the number of prison cases, they having devoted thelr especial attention to this matter during their sitting. Two Hundred More Cells Wanted. “The Warden-recommends that there should be 200 additional cells, and bur committee indorses this request. This can be done by taking in the Centre street side of the butlding and by carrying the main prison up as many stdries as may be considered necessary by the architects in charge. “It seems that in planning the present Criminal Court Building, although very fine rooms were appropriated for the Police Justice cotirts, there was no pro- vision made for temporary prison pens for prisoners br sught to court awaiting trial. “The consequence is that the Police Justices elected tc remain in the Tombs building. - aye “This is a trivial excuse for the rehson that pens should be placed in a portion of the court-room and the Police Jus- tices removed to rooms in the Criminal Court Building. “This would enable the whole Centre atreet side of the Tombs property to be de“oted to cell accommodation, with rcom on the ground floor for cooking, laundry, lavatory and storing facillties, A Diut om the City. “And in this connection we will say that the laundry, cooking and sleeping accommodations are entirely inadequate and a blot on the fair name or our city. “The kitchen, which has to provide food for 600 persuns, is 12 by 20 feet, not large enough for a small boarding-hous “The same may be said of the taun- ary. The room for help 1s but 12 by 2, and in this room twenty-seven men are obliged ‘to sleep. "The hospital is but § by 15 feet, and in this space all the prisoners suffering from any complaint, when they are not lige# to be sent to a regular hospital for acute or contagious diseases, are placed. “The lavatory accommodations scarce- ly, exist, and when it is noted that the most filthy portion of our people are gent here reeking with filth and pollu- tion, the result of the want of lavatory conveniences can be realized. Crowded Ten-Day Cell “The ten-day prison is 12x30 feet, and here sometimes 150 persons are placed with nothing but the stone floor on which to lie, and your committee are at @ loss to figure how it ts possible for this number of persons to be accommo- sores, even with a couch on the stone joor. “The cells in the main prison are 5x8 feet in the clear, and here two persons are placed, and both sleep on a narrow cot, as the Warden terms it, “heads int: with one man's feet at Qe oftter man’s face, Geiminals with Innocent Men, WA gr moral objection to placing More than one man’ in'a cell is the Recessary mingling of the most har ened criminals with perhaps an inno- cent man arrested on suspicion. This applies especially | to” female prisoners, We think that we have shown enough to call for the most de- ¢ided action on the part of the powers that. be. “The money required should not be a nfatter that should enter into the calcula, tion. We feel perfectly satisfied that when thig subject is brought to the at- tention of the people there will not be dissenting voice to any. expenditure Which will femedy this evil: Bigned, “JAMES T.

He said that the church people and the law-abiding elements generally were hly gratified at the efforts made to not only the excise, but, all other laws, and upon this point there would be a union of forces. Catholics and Protestants, he sald, would join hands in showing that the saloon-keepers did not rule the city of New York. Even if there was a ma- jority Ih the city against them the fight would be carried to the Legislature hext_year, and he knew the feeling in the State sufficiently well to be certain that no would-be legislator would go be- fore the people outside the city of New York and favor Sunday — opening. Neither would any party, “he sald, be foolhardy enough to incorporate ‘this provision in its platform, The «ritation, he said did not spring from tha masses of the people. It was fostered and worked up by the brewerles which had mortgages on nine-tenths of the small saloons of this city, and whore interests woyld suffer If the licenses of these places ‘were to be revoked. He assured the Mayor that the ad- ministration would be supported in the enforcement of the law. oo HEALEY MADE A MARSHAL. les Independest County Organisation ‘Gets Another Plum, The ‘Independent County Organteation secured to-day, through the active ef- forts of Charles Steckler and Ernest Harvier, still another appointment from the city administration.

Griffo. who has been in the Jail many weeks, enjoyed the situation, and begged the witness not to identify him as the munterer, even going on his knees to ask him. The witness, however, grave- ly replied that he was sorry, but that duty compeiled him to do #0, Then William Henry broke out Into a laugh, on which all of the twenty men laughed, ‘The witness was then led away by the disgusted detectives, who refused to re- veal the name of the man. William talks freely of the murder to his associates in the Jail, but refuses to answer questions, He has a theory that the crime was committed by a thief and points out that {t was much easier to gain entrance to the miser's house than the police try to make out. He says he often got in by a window on the back, when his father locked him out at night. The only fastenings on the window was a catch which could easily be turned aside with a knife, His theory t# that the thieves got in while the old man had gone out for his morning rolls and newspaper, and that when he got pack they were surprised at their work and attacked him. In order to account for the failure to find the blood-stained clothing, stories have been given out that Willlam Henry had two sults of clothing, one a black diagonal coat, which he wore when he surrendered to the police, the other a blue serge sult, which he wore immediately before the murder. The police have no positive evidence on that point. MR. COTTLE DIDN’T APPEAR. Want to Pan- BUFFALO, N. Y., June 2.—0. 0. Cot- tle, the lawyer who was kidnapped from his office in broad daylight, taken to @ vacant house and there chained to a post forty hours until his relatives: should raise $5,000 for his ransom, was to have appeared this morning before & Grand Jury to give evidence towards indicting John ©. Emery and George Allen, ace ised of being his abductors, Mr. Cottle did not appear. His fam- fly have all along been reluctant to aid the police inging the criminals to judgment. T police attribute the es- cay of the prisoners to the younger Cottle's fatlure to notify them of the kidnapping, and say that but for the fact that Mr. Cottle was discovered at- tempting to escape from his dungeon by a policeman, they would never have known of the crime. Tt Is the general bellef that the Cottles do not care to punish the perpetrators of the outrage, and would gladly have the whole matter dropped as quickly as possible.
