AGAINST MRS. EYLER.
Charges of Cruelty at Trenton Indus
trial School and Sustained by q
Committee or Investigation.

Trenton, N. j., June 26.-The special
committee of the assembly, appointed
last winter for the purpose of investi-
eating the management of the State
Industrial School for Girls, has COM
pleted its report.
The report begins by stating that
prior to 1897 the institution was con-
sidered a model one; that since then
there have been charges of excessive
cruelty, unnecessary severity in the
manner and method Of inficting pun
ishment: partiality, lack of proper un-
derstanding of, and sympathy with. the
character of the inmates: and a too
great desire to discipline rather than
to reform. The committee finds that
the board of trustees in office in 1898,
as well as the present board, have
shown q lack of conception of their
duties; and that the present board has
ignored the wishes OF the last legis-
lature, as expressed in a law, by not
telling the inmates of the institution
the provisions of that law, which per-
mits girls to be paroled under certain
conditions.
This, the report says, is ample proof
that they do not understand the wishes
or the temper of the people and the
legislature, or that they are acting in
defiance to such wishes. With respect
as to the charges of cruelty against
Mrs. Eyler, the report says there was
conflicting testimony, but that Mrs.
Eyler on the stand admitted enough
to convince the committee that many
of the charges were true. The com
mittee saws they regard the regime Of
the present principal, Mrs. Eyler, as
most unfortunate and they believe
that her usefulness to the state has
been destroyed. The report then says
that while the testimony in some in
stances is favorable to Mrs. Eyler,
other testimony, which is convincing,
shows that she lacks tact, essential to
the management of the institution.

Stopping All New Work.

The Lehigh Valley railroad officials
are gradually stopping all new work
in progress along the line 1t is au-
thoritatively announced that the stop
page is only temporary, due to the fact
that the extensions are being paid for
out of the present earnings of the
road. The earnings of a railroad are
never very heavy in the summer.
Mutchler, Connolly & Donnelly, who
are making the extensions between
Fackerton and Slatington, have stop
ped all heavy work. Herman Riebe &,
Son, who are enlarging the East
Mauch Chunk yard, have shut down.
John f. Dolan, who has the contract
for the filling for two additional tracks
in front of the East Mauch Chunk
station, has about fifty men at work.
Mr.. Dolan has received the same notice
that all the other contractors have.
However, his work is very urgent, and
it may, perchance, be continued.
