LESSEE
OF STATE PENITENTlARY At
RAWL.Ns GETS MORE PAY FOR
KEEPING PRISONERS.
State Board Of Charities Makes Agree.
ment Based on Increased Cost Of
Maintaining convicts at New istl-
tution-Thomas Fieck Made War.
den Of Branch In This City.

At a meeting of the state board OF
charities at the capital yesterday 8
new agreement was entered into with
the lessee of the state p~enitentiary al
Rawlins. whereby the price of keeping
state charges is increased to meet the
additional expense of keeping prison
ers at the new institution.
The new schedule calls for fifty
cents per day per man. The former
price was forty cents per day. Dur
ing the past few months a careful &C
count has been kept of the increased
cost of maintaining the convicts at the
new pen and the increase of price has
been based upon the difference be
tween Laramie and Rawlins.
1t a also agreed by the board that
about twenty-five of the convicts shall
be moved back to the Laramie peniten'
tiary, as soon as the building can be
made ready for them. This will neces.
state the employment Of another
warden and several guards. Thomas
Fleck has been employed as warden.
Those who are infirm and some Of the
short term men will be brought down
here and they will be worked on the
peniteatiary farm, where sufhcient
vegetables will be raised to supply
both institutions.

Commissioner John II. Symons this
morning. Hon. F.. T. Clark, assistant
United States attorney at Cheyenne,

hesitate to hold Brownfield, fixing his
bond at $1,000, which Rrownfield will

remanded to the custody of United
States Marshall Hadsell. who had been
at Rawlins, and who took Brownfield to
the state capital on the noon train.
Mr.. Clark introduced Marshal Da-
vies. Officer Gray and Lawyer Corthell
as witnesses. Mr.. Corthell was on the
train coming up from Cheyenne when
much Of the alleged showing of the
queer" was done, and told how he had
become acquainted with some of the
facts.
Oficer Gray and Special Officer
Doyle were at the depot when the
train arrived Monday morning and told
Of getting the bad dollars from Brown
field. Marshal Davies arresting him
later in the forenoon.
Brownield gave his story of the af-
fair, contradicting himself innumerable
times. He says he was working in con.
junction with another man, whose
name he gave as jim" and who was
later arrested at Rawlins. in an effort
to run down the guilty parties in the
counterfeiting case. and was himself
innocent of any evil intent. 1t was he.
he said, who asked that Conductor
Storey te%legraphed ahead for an Off
Ger to arrest the a who was doing
all the mischief, but he could not ex-
plain why he gave Jim" a $40 bill to
have the counterfeiter change into
counterfeit silver dollars
Brownfield insisted that he had been
misquoted concerning the giving up Of
the money to Office Gray. saying that
he had given 1t to him before he offered
to let Joe Small's bartender keep it for
him. He said that before the train
left Cheyenne he and some men were
man wanted to pay for the drinks and
threw a bad dollar on the bar, which
the bartender refused to accept. 1t
was then that Brownfield paid the bar
bill with a good dollar and took the
bad. Later the fellow gave him an
other bad dollar, for which Brownield
gave him SO cents, getting the third
for nothing. 1t vas he who found the
thirteen Or fourteen bad dollars tied
up in a handkerchief in the vestibule
Of a car and gave them into the keep
ing of the officer at Laramie, his sole
and only object being to bring the
guilty man to justice.
Mr.. Clark told the commissioner
that with the evidence adduced In the
case at Rawlins and at Cheyenne,
where other men were arrested, the
government, he believed. would have
little difficulty in connecting Brown
field with the case and secure his con
viction as a member of a gang unload
ing counterfeit money. The commits
sioner took the same view and the re-
suit was that Brownfeld was held.
