Pontiac, ILL.,. Jan. 2S.-Members OF
the board OF managers OF the Illinois
reformatory in this city. at q session
that lasted almost throughout Monday
night, heard stories from the lips OF
officers OF the institution themselves
OF brutality and torture inflicted upon
William Hamlyn, an inmate. whose
death and the conflicting explanations
thereof raised q storm OF criticism.
The original story that the board con-
vened to inquire into. that Hnmlin
was beaten and kicked into a condi-
ton that resulted In his death, has AZ
yet received no confirmation other
than the boys ante-mortem statement
to his mother. But though Fastening
to explain TINT they did not beat. the
disciplinarians Of the institution i'd
nit that they administered punish
ment beside which beating would be
child's play. More sensational testi'
mony was heard Tuesday.
The chief development was the adj
missions wrung from officers OF the in
stitution that young Hamlin was
chained up TO the bars Of the soil
tary." his wrists held BY handcuffs
to q point even with the top OF his
head, for % hours the first day OF his
punishment. for 1G hours the second
day and that the third evening he was
tied up, with every indication that he
faced q similar period Of torture. but
his endurance gave out after fve
hours and after he had revived from q
faint he either tried to commit suicide
or escape.
Being chained up again he climbed
the bars OF his cell. probably while
In q delirium. He fainted the hrs'
day OF his torture and the third night
and for long periods during these
fainting spells. he hung BY his wrists
suspended from q bar OF his cell. his
legs too limp to support his weight.
The "cold water cure" was applied
quart after quart OF ice water being
thrown over him to make him quit
shamming," and once It was poured
down his throat until he choked. After
he was injured he was left lying on
the concrete floor of the solitary
with only a blanket under him and
another over him. his back broken In
