dispatch to the New York Herald from

Spouse to the demand of the people and

vestigation of the alleged ill-treatment Of

ton by arriving here when his vacation
was only half spent. He went this after
noon to the institution and at once began
an investigation which has so far establish
ed that cruel and inhuman punishments
were inflicted upon young girls sent there
to be guided and corrected by wise and
humane state.
The process of reforma tion the testimony
showed, included Imprisonment in dark
cells, severe chastisement at the hands of
ill-natured women while the victims were
held by farm hands, and course of hand
cuffs, shackleS and straitjackets
Taken all in all, the governor found lit
tie more than he expected. He said this
evening that the fact that such punish
ments were inflicted had been established
and that tomorrow he would seek to find
If they were in any sense justified He

yesterday Johnson, who had been in the

back to Hagerstown early this morning.
This was not generally known, and but few
people were in the court house when john
son was arraigned. Shortly after the i'm
mense hall became packed with an orderly
crowd of people. AS Johnson, replying to
the courts inquiries, had no counsel and
little money. ex-State's Attorney J. a. Ma
son and a. c. Strife Were named by Judge
Stake to defend him. The accused plead
not guilty to the Indictment and chose to
be tried in this county. After a lengthy
consultation with his counsel Johnson asked
to be tired by the court. This was granted
and an order to allow his counsel time for
preparation, and at their earnest soicita-
ton the case was adjourned until Friday.
Much Indignation continues to be ex-
pressed here against Johnson, but the
prompt action of the authorities in bringing
him to trial has alayed all excitement.

PRINCE GEORGES DEMOCRATS.
No County Ticket Nominated at the
Convention.


Convention.
Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
UPPER MARLBORO. Md, August 2, 1899.
The Prince Georges county democrats
failed to make any nominations at yester-
days convention, and adjourned subject to
the call of the state central committee.
When the seventy-five delegates assem-
bled in the town hall at noon and Chairman
Beall of the central committee called the
convention to order 1t was apparent that
the slate of the so-called machine would
probably not pull through without a spirit
ed contest. Richard ]. Swami of the Bowie
district was elected permanent chairman
There were contests from the Wildwood and
Marlboro districts, which were soon set
tied by the committee on credentials. The
settlement was a compromise between the
Wilson and Griffith factions. Delegates
elected to the state convention were Geo.
8. Dove, L. A. Griffith, George NJ. Smith
and Joseph S. Wilson. The result of this
election was highly satisfactory to all fac
tons, as it appeared to heal the differences
in the party All went well until the time
for nominating candidates for the county
offices arrived, and then the squabbie be-
gan. A motion to postpone the work OF
making nominations was made and num-
Der of delegates were soon on their feet TO
protest. 1t was openly charged that post
ponement was wanted in the interest OF GER
tain candidates whose friends feared they
would not pull through. Delegates Darr
and Wells of the LAUREL and Bladensburg
districts were among those who made
speeches in opposition to the motion. Those
of the Wilson faction favored the motion
which, as already stated, was carried. Inc
vote was taken by districts, and the result
was 8 TO in favor of postponment. Much
dissatisfaction was manifested by the dele
gates from the upper part of the county;
and it is believed that the candidates VIII
be selected from the districts In the lower
end of the county. 1t is believed that the
conv ention will not be called to meet until
after the republican candidates are IN me
field. This will make the campaign short
one The delegates selected will go to the
state convention uninstructed. 1t Is thought
that they will vote for Smith Tor governor.
