NOT VET DECIDED.
The Jail Affair Referred Back to
Council.

The question as to whether or not
Roanoke is to have new jail has not
yet been decided
The matter was called up in the
Hastings Court yesterday forenoon.
City Engineer Dunlap, who has been at
home sick, was brought down in O car
riage. He explained his plans and
said that as regards the sanitary condi-
zion, ventilation and heat he believed
they were fully equal to the require.
ments Of Jail.
MIR. Dunlap's plan was indorsed by
Mr. oneehan, member of the Council
from the Third ward. He thought that
they fully complied with tho require
ments OF the law. When asked why it
was that Of the $4,000 appropriated for
the jail and mayors Office, $4,000 was
10 be expended for the latter and
only $4,000 for the former, he replied
that he thought the necessary addition
to the Jail could be made for this
amount.
MIR. Sheehan was the only witness
who favored tho Dunlap plan. A num-
Der Of councilmen were examined,
among them being the two new mem
SoAot Auooolo' LhBlOOJ auu N6lCS, as
was also DR.. Buckner, the city surgeon.
Mr. Engleby thought new Jail
should be built. He did not think Mr..
Dunlap's plan made ample provisions
for light, ventilation and sanitary con-
dition.
Judge A. E. King, member of Coun-
Gil, agreed with Mr.. Engleby. he did
not think the plan proposed by Mr..
Dunlap was of the right kind. The cells
we're not large enough, and the lighting
and ventilation facilities were bad. In
TACT the plan was not in accordance
with the requirements of the law.
City Surgeon Buckner thought that If
but two prisoners were confined in q cell
the proposed plan would meet require
ments. hallway SO feet long and six
feet wide would give ample room for ex-
ercise.
No other witnesses were examined, as
City Solicitor Miller informed Judge
Robertson that if the matter was al
lowed to rest for tho present the Council
would employ an architect to examine
the matter and SEQ whether or not Mr..
Dunlap's plan met the requirements of
the law, and If it did not, to recon-
mend such changes as were necessary,
the plans to be submitted to the court.
The Judge consented to this proposition
and referred tho matter back to the
Council.
Judge Robertson also expressed his
views in regard to the proposed addi-
ton. From his remarks his opinion is
that the present jail might be util-
lied and the extension of the Jail made
satisfactory by having more light and
some of the rooms made larger than
others.
The Judge stated that he was not
actuated by any personal motives in
this matter. Neither was he in
tiuenced by any newspaper publication.
The law required that he should see
that the jail was constructed in accord
ance with the law. He thought the
Council should have submitted the
plans to him and he could have in
formed them whether or not, in his
opinion, they conformed to the law.

Coming to the next house, he said:

AS they neared the next farm he said :

"You must get him out of the way OF
