THE STATE BOARD OF CHARITIES FINDS HIM
GUILTY OF MOST OF THE OF
FENCES GLANCED

GUILTY OF MOST OF THE OF
FENCES CHARGED.
Albany. March 1.-the State Board of Charities
has unanimously adopted the report OF the special
committee of the board which has spent several
months In investigating the administration Of af
fairs the Emira Reformaory and the charges
OF cruelty preferred against Superintendent Brock
way. This report with the recommendations OF
the State Board OF Charities based thereon was
tonight transmitted both branches Of the Legis
lature.
IT finds about all the charges brought against
Superintendent Brockway and the managers Of the
institution to be substaniated. and says that the
managers should be removed. The superintendent
OF the institution IS appointed by the Board Of
Managers. Almost the only charge not proven Is
that permanent injuries resulted TO the inmates
from the punishment practiced.
1t is recommended that padding be abolished ex-
cept in extreme cases and that then the superin-
tendent must not dole out the punishments.
The Board also recommends:
The appointment OF one or more resident chap
lans.
clan be required TO live in the Reformatory
That relatives Of the managers be not appointed
ton is the son OF one OF the managers)
That the trial court shall determine and fix In
the sentence the maximum term for which the prs-
Oner may be imprisoned in the Refornatory. or in
The keformatory and state Prison II subsequently,
The board earnestly renews the recommendations
heretofore repeatedly made against the further en-
largement Of the Accommodations OF the Elmira
Reformatory. and earnestly recommends the i'm
mediate establishment and organization of another
Reformatory for men. be located In the eastern
part Of the State where II will be convenient OF
access from the metropolitan district.
Regarding the principal charge-that OF cruelty
against Superintendent Brockway. t. II. Ltchfeld.
chairman OF the special committee. concludes that
the charges and the allegations against the general
superintendent. z. r. Prockway, Of cruel, brutal
excessive. degrading and unusual punishment OF the
inmates, are proven, and most amply sustained by
the evidence and that he is guilty Of the same.
