NASHVILLE, Aug. Ills pcciall-The
State took hand in moving conyicts
froni the branch prison at Briccyille to-
Gay. when the State board of prison
inspectors issued an order for immed-
late removal of all convcts, lessees
being given tho option OF returning them
to the main prison hcrc or taking them
to some other branch
This action was taken only after
iAliest investigation. Some days ago a
mine inspector was sent to Briceville,
ami on his return no reported numerous
violations Of mining laws. There was
only one Shaft TO mine and no ycntila
ton
The mine was filled with stagnant
and poisonous water and the CON
yicts had 70 wade through standing
water reaching - their knees. Free
and convict labor worked indiscrin-
inaiely together. Tho roof was made

menace 10 life and limb. The stockado
ami buildings were incomplete and in
secure, and twenty two men had re-
Gently escaped, nine leaving in ono
day. No provision for bathing had
been maize, and thc~ men slept on
boards and lad no bedding but two
blankets IL horrible stencil filled tho
n he and stockado.
Upon the reception Of this report the
prison inspocto left for the scene,
and were not long in ascertaining tho
truth Of tho statements. They then
stated the facts to tho attorney general
and inquired as to their power He re-
piled that they had ample authority to
order summary removal Of the men,
hence tho order issued to-day. The
board also adopted resolution that
hereafter convicts shall not be placed or
Kept by lessecs in other than accustomed
places now established and operated at
branch prisons without first giving
notice to inspectors and obtaining their
permission.
Briceviilo is tho scene of recent
trouble, and these convicts wero twice
removed by free labor. 1t is thought
that to-day's action will make free labor
satisfied To have a commission raised by
the legislature for the purpose of look
ing into the penitentiary lease question
and reporting to tho next legislature
for action.
