CONDITIONS ARE NOT GOOD
Report Differs From Report oI
 Dr. Ward.
Clerk In the Convict Department Finds, However, That State Convicts are Treated Better Than
 County Convicts.

Robert Tait, Clerk in the State Con- vict Department. who has made an in- spection of the conditions of county convicts at Flat Top in a report yes- terday given out for publication by pr. Shirley Bragg. President of the State Convict Board, declares that the report of Dr. Ward of Mobile was exagger- ated as to the sanitary condition and the treatment of the county convicts.
 MT. Tait in his report, however, makes several criticisms as to the con- duct of the mines and the provisions for the convicts of the Sloss-Shemeld Steel and Iron Company. He consid- CTS. however, that the Mobile medical man has made mountain out Of mole hill.
 The inspector criticizes the condition of the tracks and the facilities for hoisting and moving, but says that general conditions in the prison are good, the convicts are not over-pun- ished. and that the charges of Dr. Ward that the convicts are not cred ited with short time is not well found- ed.
 State men have, 1t is very true, much halter time than the county men. That is a matter of common knowledge and would not be so If the Board of Con- vict Inspectors could have these placed entirely under their control and care The accusation of unhealthy conditions is met by the fact that of 200 men held there only one died in March, and he from consumption.
 If the President of the State Board had had the power to move him this man would not have been there. for Dr. Bragg allows no tubercular inclined prisoners to go to tEe mines at all. and this one would have been sent to the hospital or the turpentine camps. where he would have recovered, as many others do with tuberculosis well advanced.
 There were only three other county men in the hospital in March, one with a broken thign, one with chills and one with pneumonia. There were no deaths among the State men. with

 Having had the report of Dr. Ward called to his attention, President J. c.

In Old New York.

1t is the custom of the New York
papers to sneer at the unsophisticated
doings of the people in other parts OF
the country. Apparently. however.
Judging from the revelations made In
the evidence of Col. Mann in the libel
case now on trial, many OF the most
prominent and wealthy men OF the
metropolis we're the easiest kinds OF
easy marks for parties who merely
proposed to write them up favorably
or unfavorably, according as they paid
out their cash. generously or not. It
Is marvellous to read how easy II was
to get large sums Of money ostensibly
as loans or in return for certificates
of stock whose value bore no proper
proportion to the money paid out.
That the leaders OF New York society
should have been held up in this way
argues Ill for their common sense, and
at the same time shows the total lack
OF real value to the utterances of the
so-called society journal.-Pittsburg
