THE CRowDING OF New CASTLE JAIL

The CROwDING OF New CASTLE JAIL
The jail at New Castle is crowded to suffoca-
tiOn: The Commercial says: "Convicts arc
confined there, who should be in a State
Penltentiary; young boys are there for minor
offences, who should be in House of Correc
ton vagrants are there, who ought to be in
some WOrkhOuSc where they could be em-
plOyed, to the public advantage; and the re.
suit Is that the jail is crowded to excess So
much so is this the case that the public will be
alike panied and astOnished 10 hear the facts.
There are in the jail-which, by the way, is a
substantial, we'll arranged building for the pur-
pose, and is kept in as good order as the un-
favorable circumstances permlt-twenty-two
cells. Most OF these are designated for the
confinement of single person. Seven of them
are now occupied by convicted persons,
sentenced to solitary confinement This re-
duces the number of cells to fifteen, available
tor the Imprisonment of those awaiting trial.
Now the whole number of persons in iail. on
yesterday March 26th,l was mneiy hUO
Seven of these had one cell apiece, leaving
eighty fre persons to be crotoded into fifteen cells
an average of Jice and sac az each, though they
are designed for one person only The conse-
quences OF this are very sad. The cells are
filled to suffOcation. Boys and youths, guilty
OF some minor offence, are locked up with
hardened, depraved old criminals; women are
quartered together, without distinction of char
acter-the young girl with the outcast the
errlng with the sinful-and those who might
under proper surroundings, be reclaimed from
crime are polluted beyond redemption
