PRISONERS ARE
GROSSLY ABUSED.
Sensational Charges Against Off
GERS Of Federal Penitentiary
at Raleigh, N. G.

Washington, d. c., May IA special
agent of the department of justice is in
vestigating charges of prison abuses in
Raleigh, s. c., of a sensational character
The charges arc set forth in letter re-
ceived by the department dated May 3
and signed by Federal Prisoners, North
Carolina Penitentiary," in which these
statements are made:
1--WE, the federal prisoners confined
here in the state prison, have very Sc
rious grievance, which we believe you
will not hesitate moment in helping to
right. A crime occurred here today that
would shock any man VINO had the least
spark of honor in him. The warden, who
is continually under the influence OF
liquor, came down in the back yard
while we were at work. and because a
he spoke the warden pulled his gun out
and shot him down like a dog; then went
off and laughed about it. The prisoner is
nearing his end, and probably by the
time this reaches you he will be dead
They even strip women naked and
lash them in the presence of men. There
have been several deaths from the effects
of this lash that have been covered mp by
sham investigation. On the farms ten
prisoners have been beaten to death.
Because we wear stripes is 1t any rea-
son why we should be shot down, dashed
and starved when we try to conduct our
selves like mem"
1t was said in the department of JUS
tice that several communications had
been received by the attorney general,
and the charges seemed so specific IT was
deemed advisable to look into them. AS
a result of the present investigation 10
more prisoners are being sent to Raleigh.

JEFFR|ES WINS BATTLE.
Bic Boiler Maker Defeats Former
Ring Champion.
LASTED % ROUNDS.
Corbett Could Not Stand Up Against
the Strength of California
Giant.

New York, May 12.-Though James ].
Corbett was fairly knocked out in the
twenty-third round of the heavyweight
championship fight at Coney island last
night and thereby failed to wrest the
honors from James j. Jeffries, who land
ed the deciding punch, the former cham
pion demonstrated TO a crowd of nearly
10000 spectators that he is the most ex-
pert boxer in the world: also that he is
game to the core, and that if he had met
Jeffries when he whipped Sullivan the
present champion might have been beat
en-. AS it was, Corbett proved to be
big surprise. Rated by critics al!
over the country as back number
and regarded as such by the public,
Corbett succeeded in regaining much OF
h;S old-time form by diligent training,
and when he got into the ring last night
he was Il new man to many who had
seen him fight Sharkey at the Lenox
club a year ago. In point Of boxing
skill. gcntralship. blows of every de-
scripticn, and speed Corbett, while he
lasted, made Jcffries look like an anna
teur But JCffries had the strength to
stand all the rapid jabs that were fired
into his face, even though they drew the
blood from his nose and mouth, and
when Corbett began to tire, the big boil J..
him down and finally dropped him with
a left-hand punch on the jaw.
The knockout came unexpectedly. 1t
was the result of constant boring tactics.
Jeffries had tried for twenty-five rounds
to get in just such blow, and had
missed his man time and time again.
But with bulldog tenacity and persever-
ance the champion finally succeeded, and
when Corbett got his blow he was put
to sleep beyond any question Of doubt.
Ii was the old story of magnificent
boxer meeting Il rugged, muscular heavy
hitter, capable of taking all kinds of pun
iShmcnt in order to get in q decisive
smash. Corbett showed one weakness.
That was his inability to hit with the
power of FitZsimmons or Sharkey. He
got to Jeffries oftener and better than
either Of these pugilists did. but his
blows, beyond bruising the champions
eyes, nose and mouth. did not beat him
down. There was just one point III the
fight where COrbett came near winning.
That was in the ninth round, when, with
a grand rally of swings, he caught JEFF
fries on the jaw and actually had the big
man staggering. But Jeffries recovered
SO quickly from the force of the blow
that when that round ended Corbett had
to begin all over again.
