A Hundred Men Let Out of Mary

WASHINGTON MAY GET THEM
Transportation for Sixteen Miles
Given Them and Twenty-four
Hours TO Leave the Siate-1he
Advance Guard Here-Shocking
Treatment Of the Prisoners.

The house of correction at Bridewell,
Nd. is evidently overflowing with IN
mates. SO much so that at meeting OF
the board of governors OF the institution
b,ld last Friday, it was decided TO ask
tbe governor TO pardon portion OF the
convicts. Accordingly, during the past
few DAYS. 12O Of the total of $50 prison
PRS. whose sentences ranged from thirty
days TO twelve months, have had the big
iron doors swing out ward for them.
Fortv-five were released, in three blocks
Of fifteen, on Thursday, and each provided
with transportation TO Baltimore, sixteen
miles distant, and given twenty-four hours
to leave the state.
one Of the Freedmen reached Wash
ineton Yesterday morning, poor III money,
but bgoyant in spirits, in search Of work,
and forever had hidden adieu 10 Maryland
He is George Harris, q constituent OF Hon.
Miles Crowley, OF Galveston, Texas Harris
is a hustler in every sense OF the word,
twenty-five years Of age, and by occupa-
tion a lineman, in the employ of the Home
Telephone Company.
He swears that in his views afoot he
has seen many better places in the country
than the institution at Bridewell, but he
never saw worse
He was arrested in Baltimore as 'Vag
with 81 so in his pockets, and kit OF
tools with him, for the offense Of asking
q man to direct him to the National Hotel
In sDite of the ocular proof that he was
not a hobo and had means, the magistrate
at the central station said tive o months at
Bridewell,'' and thus George went TO the
place. which is the Blackwell's Island of
Baltimore.
HIS story was related to The Times i'll
q straightforward manner. His clothes,
which y ere comparatively new, were taken
from him and put through the steaming
process, and when he reclaimed them, they
hadShrunk 50 thaUthey W ould have pinched
his Younger brother In their place he
got a hickory shirt and pair of striped
trousers Fifty of the prisoners, he states,
are without shoes, and many are compelled
to go out doors in their bare feet. Coats
are a luxury to one-half the prisonerbs.
Two hundred men wash in half a pint
OF " water and with six towels. Bread and
nIoIasses for breakfast and supper, and
but little better for dinner, Is the diet
There not being enough Of anything TO go
around, l20 men We're released, the
superintendent saying, as the prisoners
came up before him:
You are pardoned by the governor, on
condition that you leave the State in
twenty-rour hours, and if you are again
caught here you'll get the full sentence,
What do you say, boys, want to go?''
There was a chorus of yeas and in
the language OF Harris, Not one nit =
Harris is looking for work, and as he
appears To be a hustler and SAYS he W as
never arrested before, and presents a
good appearance, he viii probably get it.
How many Of the liberated hobos Wash
ington viii get as its share of Maryland
vacrants remains to be seen, and the story
will be told in police court.

SENATOR AND coNDUcToR.
The Hoar-Tolson Incident Paral1eled
by Former Occurrence.

''The Times criticism of Senator Hoar
ana che Traction Railroad Company on ac
count of the treatment OF Conductor Toll
son meets with general appreciation" OBJ
served q citizen who has resided in the
District for more than forty years. while
/ am surprised at Senator Hoar for his CON
duct toward the unfortunate conductor, I
am not at all SURPRISED at the railroad peo-
pie: that's, If the methods of this company
are the same that prevailed under the old
company-the Washington and Georgetown
road.
1T was not so many years ago, when
Mr. Hurt was the president OF The Wash
ington and Georgetown (now the Tractionl
Company. A conductor, named sweeny,
had been dismissed and two citizens called
on Mr.. Hurt to see if they could not Sc
cure his reinstatement.
THAT is impossible was Mr.. Hurts
curt reply.
But" said the spokesman, II think I
can bring evidence to show tnat the young
conductor was removed without cause"
THAT doesn't make the slightest differ
ence. was President Hurts reply. when
we once remove man he can never be
reinstated. That is one OF our (myl
rules"
BUT Mr.. Hurt, if we can produce in
dubitable evidence that Sweeney was
uniustly removed and without cause, what
then?''
Doesn't make the slightest difference"
said Mr. Hurt. II have told you that 1
would not reinstate him, whether he was
removed rightly or wrongly
$50 it seems that if the old policy Of
The Washington and Georgetown road is
being pursued by the modern t?) Traction
company, then there is a slim chance for
poor Tolson to get an opportunity under
the rold 20 earn a livelihood for his de
pendents.''

LIMPED ACROSS THE OCEAN.
The Pa ris Made Slow Time With
One Propeller Disabled.

New York, Jan. 23.-The American Line
steamer Paris, which sailed from here
on the 18th instant for Southampton, was
reported as passing Lizard Point, on the
Southern English coast, at 1920 o'clock
this morning, and will reach her destina-
tion about 10 O'Clock, consuming about
nine days and seventeen hours on the
passage. or about three days over her
best eastward record.
The length OF time taken on this trip
is due to the fact that the Paris went
across with the aid of but one Of her
propellers, the other having became dis
abled on her last westward trip.

IMITATION COFFEE,
The Name Not Fancied by Postum
Cereal Company.

Coffee drinkers may be interested to know
the opinion OF some competent physicians
In regard to the use OF Postum, the grain
drink. in place of coffee. Let it be under
stood that the manufacturers do not decry
the use OF coffee by healthy persons, but
there is n great army of intelligent men
and women OF the present day who can
not stand the steady, daily poison OF
coffee. tobacco and whisky without feel
ing the effect in some serious bodily de-
rangemept
DR. +. F. Cassidy. editor Of the Medical
Argus Minneapolis, Mimi, writes, encIos-
Ing the money for a third case, and is kind
enough to add: Il fully coincide with your
views in regard to the use OF coffee and
tobacco by yncurashenics( nervous patients)
I am using Postum every day, and am
greatly pleased with it,
A great many people who are not keenly
sensitive in their coffee tastes state that
Postum tastes so much like coffee that
they do not notice the difference when 1t
is served at breakfast.
The makers 10 not claim, however that il
has exactly the same taste as the finest
roffee.
il has exactly the same color. and is just

finest Mocha coffee, but the taste is dis
tinct and belongs to Postum alone.
1t is made by the Postum Cereal Co,
lim, of Battle Greek, Mich, and it is not
an imitation of any drink, but stands on
hts own footing as a wonderfully palatable
and delicious table drink, thoroughly health
full and nourishing, and is made strictly
OF the grains II is impossible for anyone
TO judge of the perfection of the product
without careful personal test of it.
There are thousands OF people using
Postum, the health coffee, in place of
coffee, and who have been benefited in
their health to an extent that commands
their esteem and warm friendship for
Postum.
