BOLDEST OFJLl FORCERS
Bidwell and '.McDonald, Who Hit the
Bank of England, Are Here.
THEY TELL OP PRISON LIFE
Sontcnccd for Life in England for Forging
$5,000,000 in 1873-Thcy Have Reg
formed and Are Soiling a Book
on Their prison Experiences.
Twenty-two years ago the whole
world was ringing with the names of
Austin Hldwell and his partners, George
McDonald and Edwin Noyes, the young
Americana who pulled the leg of the
Bank of England until It was bo sore
that all John liulldom roared with
agony. The story of tnls astonishing
raid upon the sacred money bags of
Threadneedle street Is known to almost
everyone and the presence in Scranton
of the actors revives the interest it ex
cited. They bear no trace of the fero
cious treatment they underwent during
the twenty frightful years in English
prisons, an unheard-of brutality never
Inflicted for any such offence on a Brit
ish subject, but kept In reserve for the
benefit of Americans who may chance
to fall Into the tender mercies of En
gllsh judges,
When a Tribune reporter visited them
at the Wyoming House last night he
found young-looking men, pleasant in
address and manner and most enter
taming conversationalists. They were
asked If men behind the bars differ very
much from those who have not yet got
there.
"It would be a great mistake," Mr.
Hldwell said, ' to suppose that a man
changes his nature because he passes
through an iron gate which faces
path whcr.j the footsteps are all direct
ed inward A prison Is a little world
where sumo are better than others, but
where very few are as cad as some good
people think them. This world Inside
of the walls has a public opinion of its
own and it Is at least quite as often just
like the public opinion whose sphere Is
not circumscribed by stone walls and
Iron bars.
Patient, uncomplalnlg evidence al
ways excites pity and sympathy. The
most Ignorant, tho most brutal warden
will scarcely oppress the man who goes
quietly and unresistingly along the
thorny road stretched out before him
who not taking the thorns for roses Is
not disappointed at finding few roses
among the thorns. Those, however,
who are determined to see the rough side
of prison life may easily do so.
Prison a Merciless Machine
An English prison Is a vast machine
In which a man counts for just nothing
at all. He is to the establishment wha
a bale of merchandise Is to a merchant's
warehouse. The prison does not look
upon him as a man; he Is merely an ob
ject which must move In a certain rut.
There is no room for the smallest senti
ments.' The vast machine of which he
Is an item keeps undisturbed upon Its
course. Move with It and all Is well.
resist and you will be crushed.- With
out passion, without prejudice, but also
without pity and without remorse, the
macnine crushes and passes on. The
plank bed, the crank, the bread-and
water diets, unauthorised but none the
less effectual clubbing at the hands of
wardens, the cold In the punishment
cells penetrating to the very marrow of
tne bones, weakness, sickness and un
pitied death are the certain portion of
me reDei
"The inhabitant of a cell has a verv
rougn row to noe under any clrcum
stances and it has to be hoed, but there
is no necessity for him to fill his row
with stones and to plant roots In It him
self. He soon finds his level and the
Impression he makes on his arrival is
the one which as a rule clings to him
to me ena.
Novel Amusement of Prisoners.
une or the verv few amusements
prisoners have Is in watching the Im
portant fellows the men whose friends
could do so much for them If they
would only let them know where they
are. Sometimes a chap who has per
haps been a body servant or something
of the kind, who has picked ud the
kind of veneer he could catch by aping
nis master, will provide smiles for ev.
ery one he comes In contact with during
nis stay, so long as tneir inventions do
no more harm than make them rldlnu
lous they are only laughed at and let
alone, but when one of them develops
laieni ror invention which molests
or Injures others, especially when It
taKes tne rorm or conlldentlal commu
nicatlon to the governor of what he
sees and still more of what he does not
see, sucn retribution as both orison
ers and officers can Inflict is not long in
falling.

carrying all those little indescribable
mannerisms or well-bred men. uncom

From them the grades go dovn to the
lowest, the beetle-browed ruffian of
melodrama, In all but the shape, a wild
oeasi amenaoie to no argument but
one which addresses him In the shape
of a thump over the head from a war

Degrades, Itrutallces and Hardens.
"An English orison Is a nlnce da.

manage to escane Its influence nartlv.
but most of those who fall Under It go
out far more dangerous to society than
the day the Judge pronounces his gen
erally atrocious sentence. In any case
whether they live through the torture
and come out to face the desperate
problem of how to fit themselves Into
the world again or whether thev faint
under It and disappear into a prison
grave with a prison funeral to instan
taneous oblivion, I do not remember
one who would not agree with me in
proclaiming that success In wrongdo
ing is failure."
Mr. Bidwell and Mr. McDonald .
press themselves as delighted with
Scranton. The last time Mr. McDonald
was here was at the close of the war
and his remembrance of the city was
of a small thriving town. He is as
tonished to see the great business ac
tivity and the buildings, both com
pleted and In process of erection which
would be an honor even to New York
and he contrasts the enterprise and
nush of Scranton cltsena with tha ion..
quor and want of enrgy he has noticed
in otner places.

conveys many a lesson to young men

IMS VIOLENT DEATH.
Oa the Brink of Delirium Tremens, a
Brlekmaker Fell Backward Down Stairs
and Broke His Skull.
Patrick Corcoran, aged SO year and
unmarried, a brother-in-law of John
Merrlgan, the man who served two
years In the Eastern penitentiary for
burning barns at Dutch Gap In the
North End, died at the Lackawanna
hospital at 9.30 last night from a frac
ture at the base of the skull. Corcoran
was received at the hospital at ( o'clock
in tne evening: he was partially con
sctous for a short while, but could not
utter anything coherent
He was taken to the hospital from
Davis' Golden Eagle hotel on Center
street, where the misfortune befel him,
A Tribune reporter visited the hotel last
night and had an interview with the
proprietor regarding the occurence.
M. Davis said he had known Corcoran
for the past thirty years. He came in
to the place yesterday morning.and was
on the borders of delirium tremens from
excessive drinking.
Late In the afternoon he came In
again and sat down for awhile. When
aupper was ready Mr. Davis urged Cor
coran to go upstairs and eat something.
He proceeded to follow this advice, went
to tne hallway leading upstairs, as
cended a few steps and fell backward,
striking his head against the floor. As
soon as nossible, Mr. DavlB summoned
a carriage and sent him to the Lacka
wanna hospital.
The doctor there found him suffering
irom a iracture at the base of the
skull. Blood was oostng from hla ears
and nothing could be done to save his
lire. The case was too aggravated,
Coroner J. A. Kelley was notified and
oraerea tne body to be ept at the hos
pltal morgue until this moraine: for In
vestlganon. Corcoran, when he worked,
was employed in a brickyard In the
North End, and he boarded with his
sister, Mrs. Merrlgan. Operations were
recently suspended for the winter, and
when he got his pay he spent all of his
money ior liquor.

Chares Congregation.
HOUSE FOR MANY PURPOSES

The congregation of St Luke's Epls
copal church is slowly but surely bring'
Ing to a definite consideration Its ex
tensive project of erecting a parish
building alongside the church on Wyo
ming avenue. St. Luke's now has one
of the four most valuable church prop'
ertles in the city, ana theirs will rep
resent a greater outlay and value by at
least 125.000 If the parish building
erected.
A year ago the vestry authorised the
rector, Rev. Rogers Israel, to procure
plans for the proposed structure. The
plans were made and have since been
In the rector s possession. They pro'
vide for a four-story stone structure of
a gothlo architectural style In keeping
with the old church, whose peculiar
lines stand out as a source for admlra
tion by those who appreciate the lm
posing and artimlc effects of the best
church architecture of several decades
ago. It is proposed to have space in
the new building for an industrial
school, kindergarten, gymnasium, audi
torlum and apartments for clubs and
societies.
Plan Proposal by the Ladles.
Recently the women of the church de
cided to discuss the possibility of their
Deing the main source ror procuring the
S2r,000 for building or for obtaining the
greater part of It Their second meet
ing was held yesterday afternoon in the
purlsh room, corner of Adams avenue
and Linden street. Several plans were
discussed and It was finally decided to
solicit In the congregation purchasers
for 1,000 subscription shares at $25 each.
The meeting did not consider it wise to
endorse the plan finally until it was
known that It would bring about the
desired result, but this point will be
determined, it Is expected, within a few
weens.
The parish building project is really
oi greater magnitude than can be ap
predated by casual notice. A four-story
uuiiuing exclusively devoted to the sec
uiar, society and charitable work of
church and teeming with the business
that such a work entaiU Is something
new in ncranton; in ract It is not often
attempted outside the larger cities, ex
cept by churches as energetic and prac
tlcal as St. Luke's, and even then the
scneme is not put forward on so exten
Biye a scale as in the present instance.
Enlarged Hphero of Action.
But St. Luke's rector, the vestry and
the leading element in the
have realised that the scope and Bphere
oi inurcn erron in acranton must be
broadened to keep pace with the city
Itself, anu they believe that at this
stage the field for effort is beyond the
i-nurcn b iaciiiiies.
So extensive a project, when its de
tuns are neiier Known, will be consld
ered no less a compliment to the pro.
gress of the city than to st T.nuo-,
church, which Is bound to ha r,rr.ni
