CHARITY REFORM PROPOSED.
Plans to Separate Va
grants From the Worthy Poor.

| Maryland Plans to Separate Va
| grants From the Worthy Poor.
| BALTIMORE. Nd. Nov. 24.-The annoy
ance from vagrants, in which class is in
| cluded the street beggar, has been the sub
ject of investigation by committee of the
Charity Organization Society, and an en-
| deavor will be made to have the next leg
islature amend the existing laws governing
the subject.
Questions were addressed by the general
secretary of the society to the charity or
ganization societies of the leading cities of
the Union regarding the laws for the pun
ishment of habitual begging and vagrancy
and the nature of the institutions and the
sentences received by the offenders. Re-
plies were received from Boston, New
York. Philadelphia, New Haven. San Fran
cisco, Washington. New Orleans. Cincin-
natl, Detroit. Denver, and Wilmington.
New Orleans and Wilmington reported
the provisions for suppressing vagrancy 10
be inadequate. In Philadelphia Cincinnati,
and Detroit the law was reported as good.
but difficulty is experienced in enforcing
it. The Boston report showed not only
good laws. but effective administration, re-
sulting in an important decrease in vagran-
cy. The committee made the following
summary from study of these reports:
"a distinction should be made between
the functions of the almshouse and those
of the workhouse. The cities which are
most intelligertly administered commit Of
tenders only to institutions of the latter
class. In such cities vagrants are never
committed to the almshouse, which is re-
garded as belonging to the department of
charities. but are sent to the workhouse.
which is a penal institute, under the de-
partment of correction.
''Workhouses and houses of correction
should be regarded as reformatories and
conducted on that line. Their aim should
be to teach all prisoners to earn a 1iveli-
hood. even though they be cripples. The
length of sentence is not regarded as very
material. the main consideration being
prison discipline tending to the reform of
the prisoner.
Prisoners should be classified not By
their offenses. but by their possibilities Of
reform. County prisons should be as far
as possible under State control in order to
further this end.
THE Wayfarers' Inn is useful in dealing
with vagrancy. Its existence should be
made known to the public generally as af-
fording the best substitute for almsgiving
to beggars. The dangers of this institution
are that it may pauperize men by aims il
the guise of work. and may attract beg
gars to a particular community and for |
this reason the work demanded of the |
odger should not be too light
There should be a surveillance of cheap |
lodging houses. Probation Is useful in /
iealing with aged and crippled beggars. |
Commitment to the infirmary should be |
possible in case Of vagrant crippIes and in |
irm. The infirmary should be empowered |
% send any who misbahave to the work. |
,orse for specific period and to receive
hem back later on.

lble TO the cumulative sentence, because

come to their relief. When the great Johns

appeal to a generous public in every part

the Union. that this appeal be answered.
For the distribution of this relief system
is being organized throughout the flooded
