CARLISLE, January 1.-Sheriff Totten re-
fused to admit TO the county prison the
County Commissioners, their attorneys and
physicians. This afternoon Commissioners
Berkheimer, Soaring and Zug, Attorney
Stuart, DR.. J. G. Davis and Dr. W. W.
Dale went to the Sheriff's Office and stated
that they desired to make medical exam
ination OF the prisoners confined as vagrants,
and that those who would be found to be
able-bodied men and capable of performing
manual labor would be put to work, ac-
cording to the tramp law They also de-
sired to inquire into the fact why the vaga-
bonds were all committed as vagrants, and
none as tramps.
The Sheriff refused to admit them on the
grounds that they had given him no notif-
cation of the intended visit, and, though
they were the Commissioners of the county,
they were not Jail inspectors. The Com
missioners and the jail physicians are
greatly incensed at this peremptory refusal
of the Sheriff, and have determined to get

for an order of court as passport.
