Drugs stiH Get Into Penitentiary.
A. II. Gould, the Bellwood bank wrecker,
now In the penitentiary, has been charged
with selling morphine and cocaine to other
prisoners at the state institution and has
been severely reprimanded by Warden
Beemer, who could mot punish the man
because he only had the word Of other
convicts as to the guilt of Gould and con-
Wet testimony is not suficient for the
warden. Warden Beemer discovered a
| prisoner under the influence OF morphine,
| and upon questioning him the prisoner said
he had bought the drug from Gould. The
latter, he said, would hide the drugs in the
broom corn, and when the convicts paid
him the money he would tell them where
| they could get the goods. Gould denied
the charge and in the absence OF more
proof the warden could do nothing but rep
rimand him.
