Hon. Thos. Gates, Superintendent If the Territorial Prison, arrived in the city yesterday, looking we'll. When Superintendent Gates took charge of the prison there were 163 prisoners, being the largest number ever con tined at one time since the establish ment of the prison.
 During the month two prisoners have been discharged by virtue of e1- Liration of sentence, and one was pardoned. During thu present quarter four more will be released by expira ti,.n of sentence.
 Nine prisoners are on the tick list, bus only one confined to bed.
 All of the prisoners are well be haved and no, single one is under punishment for disobeyihg the prison discipline.
 Many of the prisoners arc very in dustrious and show much skill in the use of tools, and all of their leisure moments are en. .ployed in making trinkets aaI s;.lIble articles
 The nationality ot the prisoners are as follows: Whites. S6i Mexicans, 54 i; Indians, 9; negroes, 6; Chinese, 5 Thirty two of the number are .sen- tenced to terms ranging from 10 to g wears, and seven of this number are sentenced for life.
 MT. Gates thinks that with proper machinery and other facilities the prisoners coull be utilized to make themselves almost self sustaining Tucson Star.
