A DEBTORS PRISON.

A Relic Of Semi Bnrbarism still In OPer:
alton In New York Ludlow street Jail
and Its Inmates.
Ludlow Street Jail, New York, pos
scssrs features in common with the
old debtors prisons described in the
pagce Of certain modern ro'elists.
SOME DEPARTED SoYs.
Within a few years back Ludlow Street
Jail had bar, which greatly promoted
cupyiviality within It's walls UP to
recent date It's inmates were privileged
to play billiards at the cost OF the usual
consideration charged without doors Tor
the same pastime.
spasIn OF official virtue induced the
inquiry which resulted in the above sug-
gested deprivatlons.
THOSE REMAINING,
Their Jail Is far from being gen.
orally equalled In appearance, com
fort and convenience by the average
buildings surrounding it.
Ludlow street, near Grand, as the New
Workers say, Is very remote from
"grand In reality. and its neat brick
IaiI looms up with justifable self-asscr-
tlon from amid squalij surroundings.
Tho Location" IL quiet, and the
prisoners are not ve&ed With noise,
while seemingly u, liberty to make all
tho noise they please themselves
They are ali well warmed by means OF
steam heat, while many OF their neigh
bors ere shivcring with cold, They have
abundance to cat and drink and certainly
enjoy as much Liberty as the first-class
passenger on board an ocean steamer.
They can burn candle or other illum-
inator all night in their coll II they wish,
and from half-past five In the morning
till half past seven in the evening
they wander at their own sweet will In
the corridors OF their prison-house, with
exercise In the ample yard during Ut
hour In the morning.
Those who pay extra for the accommo
dation are entertained on the ground hool
OF the establishment. One Of the accom-
panying cuts shows what very pleasan

the United States, and the balance wore
civil prisoners "in" for debt, and In
some cases, awaiting the slow process OF
legal relief; or militia men who had Of
Tended against the Military Code OF tho
Empire State, and were serving out the
first, second or higher number OF the
twenty days . sentence imposed on
persons imprisoned on this account.
RECENT DISTINGUISHED INMATE.
But one limit was put on your CORES
pondent's curiosity, and that not by the
Warden and his deputy, nor by the six
keepers.
The room In which BOSS" Tweed
started for the unknown world was, at
the time OF his visit, occupied by Fer
dinand Ward, General Grants lively
business partner.
This ingenious gentleman, unlike the
rest OF his fellow-prisoners, spent his
time In retirement, and was very sell
dom seen by anybody excepting, visitors:
Consequently little can be said about
this once interesting inmate Of Ludlow
Street Jail, who was. of course.
"boarder," and one OF the tip-top
type. and like the rich man In the
GOSPEL, "fared sumptuously every day.
At Sing Sing he is less fortunate.
All KEE AND THE ANTI-CHINESE LAW.
All KEGS was tho first case under tho
Anti. Chinese law which had arisen in
New York City.
| The circumstances Of his detention
were as follows:
He came from Calcutta as ships COOK
on a Lark landing in New York. As soon
as the vessel arrived he left her. and
was subsequently arrested and taken
before the Commissioner, who do
| cided that he should be returned to
Calcutta.
Tho prisoners counsel however. OBJ
tanned a writ OF habeas corpus for his
client. and the case was argued In
court, resulting In the decision that
seamen who come In the ordinary course
OF their vocation. intending to start for
foreign ports as soon as possible. are
not laborers within the meaning OF the
law.
II tho intention Of the prisoner to
seek another vessel Immediately had
not been rendered somewhat doubtful
by the fact that he had left the vessel
without the consent Of the captain
the Judge would have discharged hin
absolutely.
As it was, he discharged him on hit
own recognizance. with the understand
. ing that he was to obtain place OF
another vessel within thirty days.
He was quite a popular prisoner, al
intelligent fellow, commanding suficien
English to make himself understood. an'
able to follow his interrogators withou
difficulty.
Seemingly as far Anglcized, or Ameri
canlzed. as a Celestial can be. grea
!, must have been his surprise to fin
d himself q prisoner against law
| which he had no knowledge.
But he was apparently comfortable i
Ludlow Street Jail. and q curiosit
. whose popularity contributed to tn
general happiness OF that Institution.
1.-THE LAWS DELAY"
"The laws delay" is illustrated !
the case OF a prisoner whose gratifcs
ton that he gives the authorities cor
siderable trouble. Is remarkable, b,
cause the exr"rimer' he is maxim

He refused to pay, claiming that he

A tp1ndle prisoners pleasant quarters.
/; East outsrowing the necessity OF Lud-
low Street Jail, in which men arc kept
III idlcness sometimes for years, and
-sri"tully for reasons which SEEM to
thc modern intelligence inadequate.
New York State enjoys the distinction
o. Icing the only commonwealth In the
Ilicn which possesses an institution OF
tie kind.
The United States prisoners who luz
niate within it's limits, are short term
men, MI Under twelve months, and es-
teen it desirable to serve out their
period of Imprisonment within its walls,
not only because their time Is shorter
than Of prisoners of the same class
sent elsewhere, but by reason OF the
superior comforts ut their command.
For instance, nine months man COM
mIttcd an offense as an employe In the
General Post Office, New York City.
His cell fronted the fine corridor over
the prison entrance, was pleasantly fur
nIshad, accommodated pet cat as one
If its inmates, aud was as nice place
as a seven dollar a week boarder has
outside Of the prison. But his accom-
modations cost him nothing beyond the
courteSies of his friends.
To him, as to other prisoners, six
hours u day were granted as time for
the reception of visitors, and those ex-
tended if requested.
THE LEARNED LIBRARIAN.
Mention Of the library suggests the
librarian.
He has been an inmate OF the jail bc-
tween nine and ten years, is a grad
uate of Harvard and good speaker.
He is vcnerated by his fellow prisoners,
has an opinion on the legal aspect of
their respective causes and does his full
share towards tho satisfaction which
seems to obtain in the Jail.
The library which he distributes, Is
neatly arranged and adjoins the reading
room, an apartment, by the way, not alb
| solutcly sacred to literature and the
ncws-a capital place for talk and o
friendly hand in euchre.
RELIGIOUS MATTERS AND OTHER.
Twice week religions services are
held in the prison, under the supcrin.
tendence OF a clergyman OF the Pro-
tcstant Episcopal Church.
On these occasions, tho jail Is, IL pos
sible, more scrupulously clean than al
any other time. The organ and desk arr
taken from the library into the adjacen
spacious corridor.
The service, OF one hours duration
takes place on every Wednesday ant
Sunday afternoon, from half-past four
What the librarian calls a litcrar,
and esthetic address is given the prison
ers on Monday afternoon, and on Frida..
afternoon lady imparts instructions Il
vocal music, accompanying them wit
performances on the organ.
To quote once more from our friend
the librarian:
1--WE have no gymnasium but the pump
at which we take turns"
The luxury of a bath whenever desired
is at the command of the prisoner,
In the words of one Of the keepers, al
they amt clean tbs their own fault"
Abundance OF water is supplied
each OF the four corridors, with facilitit
for washing.
The prisoners are clean and so Is tt
