coast and another smaller area
around Korsakovsk in the south of
the island. Alexandrovsk is the big
gest prison center.
The stockade prison is the center of
Alexandrovsk, which place seems to
exist for the prison. The few mer-
chants stores and the iron foundry
are for the prisoners; the wooden
houses are the residences of the off,
cials. Besides the prison, the church
in the main street and the market
place there is not much to call for at
tention.
According to Mr.. De Windt. who
visited the southern portion Of SAX
halin, there are 5000 criminal con-
victs located at Korsakovsk, only
about 1900 Of whom are actually
under lock and key. The town con-
sists Of one long, struggling thorough
fare, beginning at the landing stage
and abruptly terminating at the huge
prison.
The conditions existing in the island
are almost beyond description. Al
most everyone Is a criminal and tho
worst type Of Russian criminals at
that. Besides convicts, ex-convicts,
their wives and children, and the off,
Gals and troops Of the garrison, there
probably are not a dozen freedom
individuals on the island. 1t has been
estimated that at least 5000 murder
ers are held there.
The whole of Sakhalin Is under mar
tial law. In one of the prisons, out of
a total Of 600 prisoners, 800, mostly
chained, are kept in enforced idleness,
% that many go mad. The convict's
term of confinement in Sakhalin is fol-
lowed by six years enforced residence
in the island as Exile settlers" and
further six years in Siberia as peas
ants" after which they are free to re-
turn to Russia, but as a matter Of fact
nine-tenths of the convlcts never leave
the island. Insanity is very common.
Crime Is rampant, even under the very
eyes of the officials.
The island is heavily wooded, vast
forests sweeping away for hundreds
of miles. These forests are the home
Of great bands Of bears, wolves and
escaped convicts. Of which the latter
are not least dangerous.

ever, only until 1894. Later he was.
war correspondent in Colombia and
afterward was in the district attor-
ney's Office in New York city. He
served as staff captain in the United
States volunteer army in 1893, but re-
signed from the army to re-enter the
diplomatic service. President McKin-
ley in 1899 appointed Mr.. Griscom Sec
rotary of legation to Constantinople,
where he also for a time acted as
charge d'affaires and was largely In
strumental in inducing the porte to pay
claims for damages done to American
schools in the Sultan's dominions. Mr..
Griscom was made minister to Persia
in 1901, and in 1902 was transferred to
the more important post at Toxic.
During his service there he added to
his reputa ton as a diplomat by pro-
tecting American interests in the Mika-
dos empire. When the Japanese de-
cided on government monopolies Of to-
bacco, salt and other commodities Mr..
Crimson demanded that the large
American interests receive proper re-
endorsement. for the loss Of their bust
ness. Minister Griscom was born in
New Jersey in 1872 and is the son Of
Clement A. Griscom, former president
Of the International Mercantile Marine
Company. He was married in London
in 1901 to Miss Elizabeth Duer Bron-
son, Of New York. His home is Haver-

The country is changing as the railway
runs south of the fortieth degree, so as
to skirt the eastern base of the Nan

disappears, villages are not so few, the

plains, and even rice fields, for the neigh

streams over these high regions OF the
Celestial Empire. We do not complain
of this change after the dreariness of the
