count OF n petition presented to the

residents Of Gold Hill. praying that
1.-THE boundaries Of the Virginia School
District be extended southwark so as to
include all that territory in the town OF

companied by the Endorsement OF Prof.

Disgrscsful State or Prison Affairs
in Han franclseo.


San FRAScrsco. Feb. 8.-l:30 r. ~
For q long time past the press has been
calling the attention OF the public to the
disgracsful state OF affairs existing at the
County Jail. Branch Jail. and City
Prison. Each grand jury has also, in
turn. denounced the condition OF these
institutions. The Committee on Health
and Police last night made q report to
the Board Of Supervisors, detailing facts
which are q disgrace to civilization.
Tho committee reported that the num-.
Der in the County Jails and City Prison
is about $50. where there is barely
room enough to properly accommodate
one half that number. Particularly Ia
such the cass regarding the County Jail.
where. In many instances. ten persons
are confined in n cell Of about six by
eight feet. breathing the same losth-
soms air Of their own generating. The
committee also found that In the wo-
mans ward, scarcely sufficient space Is
allowed for them to sleep. tho number
In eleven cells being GO. Fully two
thirds OF oil the inmates Of the jails are
sick, many with ~fevers, being confined
in cells with six or eight
others. suffering from efficient dis
eases. The number Of cases OF sickness
occasioned by close conin emsnt, Is In.
ereasing daily to an alarming extent, and
unless some steps are taken to prevent
Il, must necessarily result In Nh cpl.
demio or postilsnco. The COMMITTEES
also found that. OF the poor and needy
who must necessarily walk the streets
at night unless they can receive the hos.
pitality Of tho prison walls, some thirty
or forty are nightly lodged in the City
Prison. with scarcely any accomino-
dation for their comfort. In view Of
these facts. the committee urged the
passage by the Board Of a resolution
requesting our delegation in the Lsgis-
lature to take immediate action on q
bill now before It for opening a House
Of Correction in order that many Of the
inmates Of the jails may be removed to
that institution. which Is now complete.
and when occupied will greatly relieve
the jails. They also urged the passage
Of resolution authorizing them to take
immediate steps to secure plans for an
extension OF prison facilities.

Tng STATE PRisos.-The reports OF
the experts appointed to examine into
the truth OF the charges made by the
Governor against Warden Hyman have
been submitted to the Board OF State
Prison Commissioners. Hanford makes
ont a strong eass against the Warden.
while Elirdgs makes an equally clear
case in his favor. thus leaving the mat
ter unsettled rs far rs the experts are
concerned. Now the Commissioners are
engaged themselves in an investigation.

and political jealousy. to crafty which
