md came to the barn, the light shining
through the chinks around the window.
bildaman tapped softly and whispered to
the man on guard. They were admitted.
It was a big room. Four shaded Lam
terms hung from the rafters, which were
skeincd with cobwebs. The ring had been
hastily rOped of and the rough board wall
marked one side Of it. Twenty or more
men stood in the outer shadow and kept
mp q buzzing talk. The floor where the
light fell was pebbly with rosin. One
man crawled through the ropes to powder
the larger pieces Of rosin beneath his foot.
When the door sQueaked, it was q sign
that two or three more men had slipped

talked too loudly was smothcred by q hand

Some one said "Timef" and the two
rangy gladiators juggled their gloves in

ously.
Then there wns q sound of iron tearing
loose from wood and q policeman stood at

The men at tho ringside scrambled to-

seaman at the end Of the voyage.
OF course this abuse varies In extent o.
cording to tho disposition Of the captain,
but there seems to be nothing to prevent
this wrong to the seaman in case the mas
ter Is disposed to perpetuate it.
Some Of the methods of punishment re-
sorted to by captains and olficerso of vessels
are highly original, and Of course many
Of them are cruel, provided always that
the IMPORT Of the seaman is to be believed.
Tricing up is one of the oldest and most
extreme forms. Another thing that cap
tains sometimes do Is to force the seaman
who has earned their disapproval to strip
himself Of his clothes and sit for hours at
time on top Of the hatch exposed to all
sorts of weather. Sometimes In the tropics
the blazing sun soon claims its victim.
Perhaps the most original punishment
Of all is what the seamen call being
worked up.,' When this is done, the
mate or the captain will send seaman
aloft to do some unnecessary work, and the
minute he reaches the deck again he Is
once more ordered aloft to undo what he
has already done. Two or three days Of

one Of the vessels whose captain has been
recently charged with gross cruelty writes
to Thc Tribune to say that one Of his ship
mates was struck in the side by o Delaying
pin in the hands Of the mate with such
force as to break . rib. After that, when
ever this particular seaman was. near the
mate, that officer used to-strike him in the
some place and again break the bone that
had begun to knit. The mate said this
was the easiest way to lido the business"

quently so hungry that when sent aloft to
grease mast he used to eat quantities Of
the grease to appease the pangs Of hunger.
The vessel was laden with wheat, be add
ed, and many of the Sailors used to steal
the wheat and eat it raw for lack of any
thing better.
But what the American sailor Is now
complaining of most bitterly through his
trade organization, the National Seamen's
union, is the terms of the contract he is
forced to make with shipping masters and
the construction the courts have put upon
that contract. The particular feature Of
the shipping contract that most grieves
the sailor is that the penalties for its vio-
lation are unequal. If the captain sees f1t
to break the contract, the only damages
he can be held for are one months wages
If, however, the seamen breaks his con-
tract by leaving the ship before it expires,
he loses all the wages due him and is,

iNDETERMINATE SENTENCE,
A New Law That Revolutionises Crimina
Procedure In Indiana,

New Law That Revolutioni.es Criminal
Procedure In Indiana,
Persons who have made a careful exam
nation of the new "indeterminato sen-
tence' law in Indiana declare that it
completely reSolutionizes criminal prac-
tice in the state.
The theory Of the new law Is that the
person instead of the crime shall be taken
into consideration by the courts. It's first
provision is that whenever any male per-
son over 80 years old shall be tried for any
felony-except treason and murder in the
first dcgree-the court or jury trying the
case shall ascertain only whether the per-
son is guilty. Since Indiana became .
state the practice has been that juries
should not only decide whether the person
charged was guilty, but also fix the SEN
tence. The laws of the state against crime
all fix q minimum and q maximum pun
ishment. In some instances there is DIFF
ference Of ten years between the minimum
and maximum punishment.
The Indiana courts, after the taking ef-
feet of this Law, win pronounce upon every
person convicted Of crime an indeterminats
sentence, stating in the sentence the mini
mum and the maximum limits fixed by
law. For instance, II a man is convicted
Of crime the minimum punishment Of
which is two years and the maximum 1s
years, the court will say to the prisoner,
You are sentenced to the state prison Tor
to the reformatory, as the case may be) for
o minimum period Of years and q
maximum period of 12 years.
Whether the prisoner shall receive the
minimum term, the maximum term or
any time between the minimum and tho
maximum terms will be determined By
his conduct in the prison. Those interest
ed in prison reform take the view that this

discretion of tho courts. Tho seaman con.
tends that this imprisonment for violation
of civil contract is q discrimination against
him, inasmuch as when such violations
are made by other men redress can be had
only through the civil courts. -
1t is o we'll known fact that seamen are
often persuaded to sign contracts when
they are not themselves, either by reason Of
intoxication or from having been drugged
by the keepers of sailors boarding houses,
who are only too frequently in the pay Of
designing shippers. When they come to
their senses, it is only too often to find
themselves aboard q strange ship, with the
land already hundred miles behind.
This is the sort of contracts the seaman
thinks he should be allowed to break, and
it is plain that his claim ought not to be
carelessly dismissed.
