JAIL RECEPTIONS ABOLISHED
Hagerstown Grand Jury Curtails
Social Season in Prison.
Report Result of investigation
After Many Prisoners
Have Escaped.
Special to The Washington Herald

Special TO The Washington Herald
Hagerstown. Md. Feb 15.-Receptions
in the county jail have been tabooed by
the grand Jury, Likewise, the ban has
been put on afternoon card parties and
other social functions in the county
prison.
The reason for the curtaIlment Of social
activities on the part Of the county pris-
oners is that too many OF them have left
their happy home recently. without so
much as by your leave and without
leaving even a note of regret or farewell.
which rudeness CRATES upon the members
of the grand jury.
At the instigatiOn Of Judge Keely, the
grand jury made an exhaustive investiga-
ton into the conditions at the jail, and in
vOiumin0us report made to-day the
turnkey is relieved Of all criminal blame.
other than a charge OF Carelessuess. He
is blamed for not making certain all the
doors were properly bolted and locked
After the recommendation that there
be fewer social activities, the report goes
on to advise that the sheriff maintain a
stricter discipline among the prisoners;
that all prisoners be locked In their cells
at night and be permitted TO have access
70 the corridor only during the day; that
a stricter watch be kept on persons visit
ing prisoners, and that the practice of
allowing TRUSTEES" unusual liberties be
abolished

Seth's letter this week The President Of
the senate contents himself with saying
that he did not begin the quarrel, and,
being occupied with public business. is
entitled TO his own good time in replying
TO Gov. Warfield
1T is understood that he intends TO
stand by his guns and attempt to justify
his charges. II may be said that the sen
atOr IS living in an anti-Warfield atm0s-
phere, which is somewhat unfortunate. IN
view Of the fact that the situation calls
for careful consideration and deliberauon-
1T is assumed that Mr.. Seth, who Is a
lawyer and ought to know what constl-
tutes proof knows what he is about
Whether or not he is advising with MS
party associates as 20 his course Is not
known here, but, while Mr.. Warfield is
cordially disliked there is a pronounced
feeling that the dispute will not do the
party any good. and the sooner It IS
ended the better"
Favorable Report Does Not Go.
As an Indication of how little favor
able report on a local bill may mean.
there was an amusing occurrence in the
senate.
A bill came in from Washington County
bearing the 20. X" of the senator from
Washington. of Senator Beaseman, and
one other senator, TO whom 1t had been
referred.
As it was being read by the clerk, Sen
ators German and Biddison asked about
some of its provisions. Finally. Senator
Beaseman was appealed TO. The senator
explained that he had been busy, and
that he had taken the word Of the sen
ator from Washington for it. The bill
was postponed.
However, such occurrences are by no
means rare. It is only occasionally that
sport is had out of them.
