Philadelphia. May 21--Today's ses-
sion of the legislative committe in
vestigating the management of the
state penitentiaries was sensational
Judge James Gay Gordon of the Phil
adelphia court of common pleas was
the star witness. He said the official
reports of the prison were filed with
falsehood and that he could prove that
the treatment of many convicts have
been brutal and cruel.
He said the institution reported there
We're ten insane patients in November
last. and that an investigation showed
there were 80 at that time. OF these
he said nine are now in insane asylums
and one is dead from the result of cruel
treatment at the prison. Thirty-six of
the insane convicts, he added, are still
in cells in the prison
He instanced the case of McCue, a
prisoner whom he had ordered sent
from the prison to the Northtown state
insane asylum, and who died the next
day, as alleged by the judge from
beating he received the night before his
removal from the penitentiary. He told
of another insane convict. a colored
man, named Prentiss, who for eight
months had been tied to the prison
steampipes every night.

Madrid, May 21.-Senor Morel Y.
Pendergast, former minister, asked
the government On behalf of the Lib
erals in the chamber of deputies today
to submit all the papers relating to
the rebellion in Cuba to the diplomatic
relations of Spain with the powers.
Senior Canovas, the premier, replying.
said the government could only attach
credit to such information as was sent
by Captain General Weyler. He Sc
vereiy blamed the American nawspa-
pers for disseminating false news, and
cited as case in point recent staee-
ments attributed to Consul General
Lee.
The premier said:
SPANS relations with other pow
ers coLcinue cordial. but the advice
which the Americans are offering to us
cannot Ne followed. because Spain will
never accept any Intervention in a mat
ter which peculiarly concerns herself
The documents which have been asked
for would only refer TO this advice. The
government has accepted full respon-
sibilNy for everything which has been
done by Captain General Weyler.'
Senior Morel Y. Pendergast asked if
IL was true that the United States SEN
ate had recognized the belligerency Of
the Cuban insurgents.
The premier replied that the report to
this effect was not a surprise to him, as
1t was question of creating more
difficulties Tor President Mckinley in
connection with the tariff bill. but he
said he believed President Mckinley,
like Mr.. Cleveland, would decide for
himself in such a matter.
