1--WE have come here today" satd
Mrs. Moore, "to again ask that men
be not forced to make confessions
while imprisoned here that may be
used against them when they leave
here. We understand that through
the pressure that can be brought to
bear on the inmates in these institu-
tons they can be made willing to con-
TESS to crimes they never committed"
what do you mean?" queried Han
dler.
"Oh. we understand that by depriv-
ing prisoners Of their proper allow
ance of food and of small privileges
they are allowed, and by bullying con-
duct on the part of the men in charge
of them the inmates can be led to
make false confessions involving
themselves or others. This informa-
ton is used against the men after
they are released as we'll as against
men who are at large whom the po-
lice desire to incriminate."
mo one Is ever forced to confess
anything here, madam" protested
Handler.
"But know
pardon me, Mrs. Moore" inter-
rupted the lieutenant governor, rising.

realize what you are saying" He ad-
dressed the warden. 1T seems. how
ever. that these well meaning ladies
have evidence that certain man here
did confess some offense to a-a"-
ITO a STOOL" commented Handler.
"Am I responsible for the detectives
who have men working inside the
prison for them?"
by stool you mean
"A stool pigeon, decoy. They win
the confidence Of prisoners and tell
what they learn to the detectives"
Mrs. Moore here went on to state
that in Sing Sing and in all prisons
were confined many innocent men and
that in any event released men should
be encoura ged to live honestly, should
be given a chance. They ought not to
be pursued and bounded into being
spies by detectives anxious to make
a record for securing convictions re-
CARELESS Of the truth Of the testimony.
One reason the woman advanced for
her stand was that q man who be-
came a spy or decoy must associate
continually with men and women of
questionable character. thus rendering
it impossible to secure or, much less
remain in honest employment.
"Bosh" exclaimed Handler as she
ceased. "These folks we get don't
want to live straight, won't live
straight. can't live straight when they
get on the outside First. they're all
lazy; second. most of them are in

who had taken him away before ran
into the car. and they fought. was
petrified with fright The gentleman
was much the smaller, and it seemed
he would surely be killed when sud
denly by some trick he sent the man
crashing through the Pullman window.
I read in the paper the next day that
a famous burglar was found with his
skull fractured near the tracks"
A strange light came into Handlers
eyes. Was it possible. he thought.
that so strange coincidence
Ibid that occur in this state?" he
asked quickly.
Yes" between Buffalo and Roches-
ter two years ago in June"
The warden compressed his lips
firmly.
"Was the dead burglars name Cot
TOM" he interrogated earnestly.
Yes: that's what the papers said.
Did you know him?"
Had him here for five years once.
Odd, but we heard he was killed try
ing to get on a moving train. And. by
the way. his particular pal is now in
this prison doing ten-safe breaking.
His name IS Valentine. The story you
tell is a brand new one on u.s."
"And you never saw again the gen
tleman who rescued you?" queried
Mrs. Moore of Miss Lane.
Never" Into the young girls face
came an expression of mingled sweet
ness and regret. The woman's ques-
ton seemed to revive in her the men,
cries Of a voice and face and a man
ner and a personality which somehow
she had never been quite able to for
get.
I'VE sat and talked for a few min
utes." she finally went on. ''He told
me that there were reasons why he
could not let me know who he was
and that he could never see me again,

" to receive their thanks for what he
had done. He was very nervous. but
he had amazing strength for one Of
his build. as his handling Of that ruff
fan showed When he shook hands
with me noticed that his hands were
very white and smooth and sensitive"
The warden was now leaning over
his desk, intent on the girls words.
II noticed that he had the habit of
frequently pressing one hand nervous
~ into the other. and
He was tall. and he had blond hair"
interjected the warden.
The girl gazed at Handler in open
mouthed establishment.
