raagawsw THE PITTSBUEG DISPATCH, TUESDAY MAY 10, 189a -N(MMWki NO FAULTS ARE FODKD With the Management of the Hunt ingdon Reformatory. REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE. Conduct of the Assistant Snperintendent Is Indorsed. SENATOR OSBdUGN'S CHARGES FIL James B. Scott, a member of the State Board of Charities, and Chairman of the committee appointed to investigate alleged irregularities in the management of the State llelormatory, at Huntington, has pre pared and will probably this week submit to Governor Fattison a report of that investi gation. The report will be comparatively short, but it will review in detail the cause of the trouble in the Huntingdon institution, will fully and thoroughly vindicate the management and will indorse In positive terms the assistant superintendent of the Reformatory, upon whose account the in vestigation is alleged to have been institu ted and whose dismissal was asked by those who instigated the inquiry. The story ot the investigation and the cause leading to it is interesting. Senator Frank Osbourn, of Philadelphia, is a law yer of standing and reputation. Shortly otter the adjournment ot the last Legis lature, and after Senator Osbourn had re turned to his law practice, the son of one of his clients nas convicted of some petty crime, and was sentenced to the Reforma tory at Huntingdon. A Limit to Senatorial Courtesy. A week after the boy had been commit ted Senator Obourn wrote a letter to the management of tne Reformatory asking for the boy's release. The Superintendent at Huntingdon wrote back to the Senator re tusing to release the boy, and assuring Sen ator Osbourn that only the Governor and the Pardon Board had the authority to re lease a prisoner from the institution. The Senator immediately replied, saying he knew thoroughly well where such authority rested, but he asked tor the boy's release as an act of Senatorial courtesy. The As sistant Superintendent then wrote back to the Senator saying that Senatorial courtesy could not be extended to a violation of the law.and that the boy would not be released. Then Senator Oobourn threatened that he would prevent the Huntingdon institution from receiving an appropriation from the State. Judge Arnold, of Philadelphia, then or dered that ten of the worst inmates of the Huntingdon institution be turned over to him. The Huntingdon authorities obeyed the order of the Philadelphia court, and ten bojs who had been sent irom Philadel phia were released and sent with an officer to Philadelphia, where they are confined at Moyomensing. On the testimonv of these boys, Senator Osbourn instigated the in vestigation. The Senator at once visited the Governor, and told him the disclosures made by the released boys. The Governor assured Senator Osbourn that he would at once go to Huntingdon and look into the alleged irregularities. Ills Own Investigation. "Governor, you need not go to Hunting don" the Senator said, "I will go there my self." The Senator did go there. He was met at the institution by the Committee of the Boanl ot Charities to whom he said: "I did not want the Governor here. This is not Pattison's investigation. It is Os bourn's investigation." The inquirv was then instituted. The charges ot mismanasement, incompetency and cruelty were laid against the assistant superintendent, but the report which is now prepared will declare the institution to be thoroughly managed and will especially ap plaud the conduct of the assistant superin tendent. The action of Judge Arnold in ordering and securing the release ct the ten bojs troiu the Reloruiatory will not be ap proved and the enforcement of the law gov erning such case will be recommended, lu a recent opinion on the law governing the Reformatory, Judge Samuel L. diehard, ot Mercer county, decided that the manage ment of the Reformatory had authority un der the law to send refractory inmates of the Reformatory to one or other of the pen itentiaries of the State. That is, a boy sent irom the eastern end of the State can be sent by the Huntingdon management to the Eastern Penitentiary, and one committed to the Reformatory from the western end of the State can be sent to Riverside, there to remain always under the jurisdic tion of the Huntingdon managemenl- The enforcement of this feature of this law will be recommended by the report of the Investigating Committee, and hereafter all refractory prisoners at Huntingdon will be sent to the penitentiary in the district from which they were sent to the Reform atory. Tiiis arrangement, it is argued by lhc report, will keep down disturbances and will tend to allay the ugly rumors which it is claimed are always started by the inmates of the concern, and upon in vestigation have always been found to be without foundation. WANTS MOKE CABBAGE FUBNACZS. Mr. Tatrlck Doesn't Think Well or the Plan to Make an Island Dnmplnc Ground. "W. W. Patrick, who is President of the Rider Carbage Furnace Company, talked a little about the carbage question yesterday. He says what the city needs is more furnaces. He built the one at Hardscrabble and it was to have a capacity of 30 tons per day. The city undertook to overload it, and to facilitate combustion put in gas at a cost of 5500 per month. This was spending money at a lively gait, and it was too ex pensive. Mr. Patrick says 60 bushels of slack coal per day will run any of the furnaces, and the cost of one should not be more than $10 per diem. He doesn't think much of the plan to make a dumping ground out of one ot the islands. He says not more than 100 tons of garbage is made in the city in a day, and it could be easily handled in the furnaces. He says if the carbage is dumped in boats along the two rivers, it will become a seething mass in a few days in the summer, and the city will be inoculated with typhoid fever germs. The miasma in the atmosphere is caused by decomposing vegetable matter. HIW ADVERTISEMENTS. II REGULAR BOOM In our far famed Millinery Depart mentWhy this rush ? DRAHK HUMAN BL00O. for Death of an Iowa Man Who Thirsted Gore for Seventeen Tears. Bentos', Ia., Slay & Joseph Hamilton, who has spent the last 17 years of his life in chains, died yesterday. He had a terrible mania, a thirst for human blood, which nothing could appease, and he had to be kept in irons all the time. When about 25 years of age Hamilton acquired this appe tite by tasting blood in a fight He was watching a sparring match when he saw blood flow from the nose of one man and went wild instantly. Drawing a knife he plunged it into the heart of a bystander and drank his blood as it flowed. He killed another man before he was arrested. mw "Looks like a ghost!"

KAUFMANNS ORIGINATORS OF THE "WALK WELL" SHOE The old fallacy that the foot must fit the shoe, instead, vice versa, the shoe the foot, has been thoroughly dispelled by the introduction of KAUFMANNS' celebrated "Walk-Well." Much time, thought and money has been expended to produce the "Walk-Well," but the result is a triumph of modern shoe making. It means the redemption from corns, bunions and the pains in general produced by ill-fitting shoes. The "Walk-Well" is made with a view to perfect ease and comfort It follows the natural outline of the foot, holding it firmly through instep and heel, and allows the weight of the body to rest squarely on the ground, instead of on the toes and joints. The soles are of peculiar shape and of sufficient width to allow the foot and its joints the necessary expansion without the uppers losing their natural shape and extending over the sides, thereby giving elasticity to the step and lessening the liability of the uppers to crack. :: :: :: :: :: :; :: :: ;: :: :; THE STILISH UNO POPULAR BOff MATE SUITS, THE ..
