Board Of Control Of Marquette
Prison Gives Him His Former
Job as Deputy Warden.
WAS LET OUT BY FREEMAN
Developments Made Him the
Only Sufferer as Result Of
the Recent Investigation.

quette branch OF the state prison re-
instated Eugene Mosher as deputy
warden OF the institution Tuesday,
says the Mining Journal. Mosher
was removed by Warden Freeman
the day after ex-Gov. Pingree's
charges, contained in bis exaugural
message, against that official were !
made public, the people beiag left to
conjecture that Freeman was con-
WINGED that Mosher had labored to
undermine him by furnishing the
Information Oh which pingree's al
legations we're based. The general
public has steadfastly refused to
regard the matter in that light and
It has been asserted on all sides that
the warden was laboring under
halucination or misapprehension
when he thus summarily proceeded
against his deputy. All through
the investigation this was . com.
mon opinion and to this day the
people who have followed the case
believe that Mosher's conduct has
been entirely honorable and above
board.
The result of the investigation
being practically an endorsement
and vindication OF Warden Freeman,
the only sufferer from the vigorous
proading of the prison affairs was
Mr.. Mosher, and his friends i'm
mediately interested themselves in
seeing what could be done to have
him reinstated. Mr.. Mosher was
fortunate in possessing the friend
ship and confidence Of members of
the board Of control. They saw the
injustice OF making him the only
sufferer from the investigation and
speedily came to the conclusion that
the only way in which to treat all
parties concerned fairly was tolre-
instate him in his former position.
This was accordingly done and now
everything at the prison will be on
its old footing
The report OF the joint committee
on Investigation was read and dis
cussed, particular attention being
paid to all recommendations. With
out exception, these we're needed.
The breeding Of Belgian hares at
the prison Is to stop at once. The
board placed the seal OF its dis
approval on all horse trading and
hereafter only the state horses or
those busy with prison work will be
kept on the premises. The number
of bloodhounds at the institution is
to be reduced, although the board
will keep four or five Of the animals
about the place, regarding them as
an excellent deterrent to keep the
prisoners from attempting to es-
cape.
Hereafter a large percentage,
which will include all but limited
number of the dangerous men, of
the prisoners will be given Satur-
day afternoon recreation in the
yard, this being one OF the points on
which the csmmittee's report made
suggestions. For a couple OF years
past the inmates of the institution
have only had this privilege on the
afternoons of legal holidays. The
board of control has also decided to
take steps to abolish cell feeding for
the great majority of the inmates.
The state legislature will be asked
to make an appropriation for the
erection OF a structure to contain q
dining room, that formerly in use
being now occupied for shop pur-
poses.
Thus, as a result OF the investiga-
tion of the prison, a number OF i'm
portant changes will be inaugurated
which will doubtless tend to make
the institution better and which will
certainly work to the Improvement
of the condition OF the inmates.
