The reporter strolled into the sher-

met with a genuine surprise when

consider himself undor arrest, The
positive manner in which the sheriff
spoke caused the scribe to become a

Pittsburg, Sept 21.-Conditions at
the western penitentiary have been de-
cIared so unsatisfactory that prepara-
tions will be made shortly for the re-
movaI from 1t of all the twenty one
federal prisoners.
C. H. McC1lason OF the department OF
prisons and prisoners has reported to
Attorney General Wickersham that
800 of the inmates of the institution
are victims of tuberculosis, that half
the prisoners are kept idle az all times,
that the cells are infested with vermin,
that two men are forced to occupy one
small cell and that the quality of
foods has caused universal complaint.
Warden John Francies of the peni-
tentiary admitted that all but one of
the charges were true, but he denied
any responsibility for the conditions
there He declared that since he took
charge, little more than two months
ago, that numerous changes had been
made In the administration of the PEN
itentiary which rebound greatly to the
benefit of the prisoners.
"The charge that the quality of the
food is such as to cause complaint is
absolutely without foundation he de-
clared. Thousands of private fami-
lies In Pittsburg do not enjoy as good
food as the prisoners here. The food
could not be better, and am ready to
prove it to anyone who wishes to in
yestigate."
He invited newspaper representa-
tives to make careful inspection of
all parts of the penitentiary, and per-
sonally conducted them through 1t.
The kitchens, dining rooms and baker
les were found to be thoroughly clean
and sanitary, and the foods in stock
to be the best on the market.
1T is true there are between 200 and
300 tubucular prisoners here" War
den Francies continued. "But neither
/ nor my predecessor can be blamed.
1t is a well known fact that bill was
The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1909-09-21

introduced at the last session OF the
state legislature providing for an ap-
preparation to erect a tuberculosis hos
pital at the penitentiary, but that bill
was killed in committee. We need a
hospital for tubercular prisoners very
badly
But the board OF prison inspectors
already has taken action to build a
dead wall across one wing OF the peni-
Tertiary to segregate tubercular pris-
oners to check the spread OF the dis
ease, and it is the only thing practical
ole at this time. We are doing all we
can with the money at hand.
'Tt is also true that many of the cells
house two men. Well, there are more
prisoners than there are cells, and con-
sequently it is impossible to do any
ing else. The report that all the men
re not working also is not exagger-
ated. But the legislature, by an act
called the Muchlbroner bill, permits us
20 work only certain percentage of
the prisoners. We are only obeying
the law in that respect.
THE charge that the cells are too
small and infested with vermin / can
only answer that since / have been
warden here, little more than sixty
days that we are repairing and thor
oughly renovating the building as
fast as practicable. Bedbugs are the
only pest we have to deal with and
we are stamping them out as rapidly
as possible.
Il have nothing to say about the
governments action in deciding to re-
move its prisoners" he said. "If the
government officials find this prison is
overcrowded IL has a perfect right to
send its prisoners elsewhere"
The penitentiary hospital In the big
prison yard is also overcrowded. 1t
now houses twenty-+hree prisoners,
seventeen of whom Warden Francies
believes to be insane Recently .he5said
he applied for commissions to investi-
gate the sanity of seventeen locked i'm
the hospital, but the court had not yet
acted He wishes to have the insane
prisoners removed to state insane hos
pitfalls. An inspection of e. hospital
last night showed that +. was in ex-
1ellent condition from c-.nitary view
point.

a splendid effort. fighting like the "de-
mon" they called him. Through the
ninth and the tenth Lavigne was in
distress, but smuggling desperately. His
left ear was nearly torn off and he was
crimson from head to foot Not a whit
cared Lavigne. At the end of the tenth
Walcott, arm weary from hammering
his game adversary, went to his corn
err and said to O'Rourke: Il can't hurt
this white boy. amt going to go on
flghtin' Walcott was given his choice
between continuing and getting bull
let through his hide. He accepted the
former alternative
But Walcott couldn't do much in the
eleventh round Lavigne began to take
a decided lead. He was battered, but
still strong as ever and wonderfully
fast and eager. Walcott, losing heart,
lost his defense at the same time, for
Walcott's aggressiveness had always
saved him from getting much punish
ment. Lavigne came In faster and
faster, hammering the Barbardoes
champion to the ropes and smashing
his head from side to side with ter
rifle hooks and swings, while the crowd
yelled madly.
1t was Walcott's turn to stagger and
weaken. Lavigne gave himsnot a sec
onds rest. In the fourteenth WaIcott
rallied for moment and again hurled
himself off his feet in missing q wild
swing. When he rose Lavigne rushed
him to the ropes and kept the blacks
head bobbing from side to side with
bewildering wallops until the bell rang.
Walcott staggered to his corner, nearly
out.
BY this time Kid Lavigne had for
gotten all about staying the fifteen
rounds. He dropped all defensive tao
tics in the last session and tore into
the battered, weary Walcott like a cy-
clone. Walcott fought back in a fury,
but there was no longer a sting in his
blows, and Lavigne battered him
around and around the ring. II was all
Lavigne now. He punched the black
man at will while Walcott could only
try to stall and gasp until the bell
ended his troubles. The bell came In
time. But Kid Lavigne was victor in
one Of the most furious battles ever
fought in a canvas covered ring.
Later on Lavigne met Walcott again
in San Francisco. Walcott entered
that fight with fear Of Iavigne in his
heart. In the twelfth round he quit.
