NEW YORK, March 21.-About $50 menu
beers of the Nineteenth Century Club gath
cred at the ballroom of Delmonico's to
listen to an address to the organization
by Eugene V. pebs. the. labor agitator.
There were a number of the substantial
business, professional and scientific men
present. and tho interest in Mr.. Debs'
words was rather out of the ordinary. and
the speaker was applauded mildly several
times during his remarks. MIR. Debs spoke
on Prison Labor, Its Effects On Industry
and Trade"
Among other things. Mr.. Debs said:
Here in this proud city. where wealth
has built Its monuments grander ana more
imposing than any of the seven wonders Of
excavate for facts you will find the re.
mains, the homes of the toilers. buried and
they wrought, they died. In their time they
may have laughed and sung. and danced
TO the music Of their clanking chains.
and perpetuated conditions which, growing
steadily worse. are to-day the foulest biots
the imagination. can conceive upon our
much vauntsd civilization, And from these
conditions there flow a thousand streams
of vice and crime which have broadened
and deepened until they constitute a per
peace and security of society. Jails. work
houses. reformatories. and penitentiaries
the question how to control these institu-
tions and their unfortunate inmates is
challenging the most serious thought of the
| most advanced nations on the globe.
'The perniciols effect of prison contract
labor upon free labor so-calied. when
brought into competition with 1t in the open
market is universally conceded, but it
should not be overlooked that prison labor
is itself an effect and not a cause. and that
convict labor is recruited almost wholly
from the propertyiess wage working class,
and that the inhuman system which has
reduced a comparative few from enforced
idleness to crime has sunk the whole mass
of labor TO the dead level of industrial
servitude.
1T is popular 70 say that society must
be protected against criminals. prefer to
believe that criminals should be protected
against society. at least while we live under
a system that makes the commission o!
crime necessary 10 secure employment De-
! velopins along this line. it would be only Il
manufacturing all things for the use OF
the people and then, perhaps. the inquiry
would be pertinent: II the state can give
men steady employment after they commit
crime. and manufacturing can be carried
forward successfully by their labor. why
can II not give them employment before
they are driven TO that extremity. thereby
preventing them from being criminals
Prison labor Is not accountable for the
appalling increase in insanity. In suicide.
in murder and q thousand other forms OF
ton and contana.nate every stream designed
to bless the world. Prison labor did not
create our army Of the unemployed. but has
been recruited from its ranks and both own
their existence to The same social and eco
nomic system. There conditions are as
fruitful of danger to the opulent as they
are of degradation to the poor"

Mrs. Hammond secured a divorce from
