reference murderers imprisoned in Sing Sing

kept in such part OF such prison as the agent and

In referring to the work of the department one OF

Every inspector in the Buildings Department has
approximately one-half much more work 70 do
than inspectors had to do in previous admintStra-

territory to cover than inspectors had to

priation Superintendent Stewart had TO dismiss
