WILD CRACE-BRAIN RUMORS.
Stories of Prison Treatment Re-
futed In Toto.
Interview with the Marshal on Meth
DDS at Oahu PrisOn-GiVes State
ment of Facts.

Street rumors wild and unbound
ed have been floating about since
the first week Of the instruction
as to the treatment to which the
prisoners at Oahu Prison have
been subjected. Like all rumors
these have been rolling up into
yarns that savored of a certain
amount of truth and veracity.
Although the better element of
the community take no notice of
these floating lies, in view of the
statements which might be sent
abroad, a representative of the
ADVERTISER interviewed Marshal
Hitchcock and a number of citi-
zens thoroughly conversant with
the treatment of the political pris-
oners to learn the facts in the case.
Marshal Hitchcock said: "There
Is no truth whatever in these
stories about thumb screws, put
ting on ice and in tubs of water.
Some of the men whom we learned
from no less than two witnesses
had knowledge of the location of
rifles and revolvers were put In
dark cells. Without exception
these men have come out and
given information by which the
officers were enabled to go to the
place designated and capture arms
and ammunition. One man con-
fessed his knowledge and directed
the officers to place where five
revolvers with ample ammunition
were found.
Putting in the dark cell is a
regular mode of prison punishment.
Some have remained in close con-
finement not more than an hour,
and the longest anyone has been
kept in the cell was forty.eight
hours In only one instance was a
man confined that length of time.
No more than ten have ever seen
the inside of the dark cell. They
have been allowed the regular diet
of bread and water, and as large a
quantity as they desired.
eyes, 1 have heard the stories of
men being packed in ice and put
in big tubs of water and threatened
with drowning. The fact is, the
allowance Of ice at the prison is
but five pounds a day-hardly
enough for a man to sit on, much
less be packed. As for tubs of
water, we haven't any tubs large
enough to carry out the methods
said to have been pursued.
The whole story is false from
beginning to end. We're civilized
if we are under martial law"
