of Witnesses.

wprkhouse at Occoquan, against the
District, charging gross negligence in
operating the penal colony, began to-

Supreme Court.
A temporary injunction is sought by

ers," said TO endanger lives of women
and children and cause depreciation of
property.
Serious charges of Encouragement
against Superintendent Whitaker are
made in the affidavits obtained by Tot
ten. and presented today to Justice
Gould. Gross incompetence, cruelty to
prisoners, lax management and utter
disregard of secure custody of the con-
victs is charged in numerous affidavits.
w. j. Byers, a former guard. says
the guards are compelled to work shifts
of from twelve to eighteen hours with
out sleep. He says Superintendent
Whitaker is incompetent, weak. ami
vaCiIlating," and maintains no disCip
line.
Another former guard, II. c. Sparks.
says Superintendent Whitaker permIts
great cruelty to the ConVicts. by starva-
ton, exposure and corporal punishment.
He says the discipline is lax, and that
escapes of prisoners are frequent.
Sparks declares loads of prisoners ac-
company wagons without any guards
whatever.
In another affidavit. Steven O'Dea.
also a former guard, says he had to re-
sign because conditions were so bad at
OccOquan. He says the convicts were
treated with "grossest cruelty. and
were unguarded on the public roads.
Smuggling in of whisky by guard
was cOuntenanced by Superintendent
Whitaker, according TO O'Dea, who de-
Clares Superintendent Whitaker is in
experienced and that the guards and
conviCts do about as they please.
Merchants and other residents near
Lorton Station say great property dam
age has been done them by the location
of the workhouse and the conduct of
the convicts. The merchants say
women and children fear to come to
the store because of the freedom given
convicts.
Refuting the affidavits of Totten are
two dozen others, denying the charges
of nniSmanagement, which were read
to the court this afternoon.
Arguments of counsel on the jurisdic
tion of the court will follow the presen-
tation of the affidavits for submission of
the case to Justice Gould for decision.

WILL ASK ASHFORD
WHY SCHOOLS WERE
LEFT WITHOUT HEAT
Letter of Complaint Receives
Attention of the Com
miSSionerS.

Snowden Ashford, municipal archi-
tect, will be asked TO explain to the
District Commissioners whX he ordered
the furnaces removed from the Douglas
and simmons schools before the weather
was warm enough TO permit 800 children
to attend classes in those buildings
without heating apparatus.
Mr.. Ashford will also be asked to ans
wer the allegation that the. Board OF
Education and other school officials
were not informed of the immediate re-
moval of the furnaces.
Complaint Is Made.
A letter of complaint was today sent
to Cuno II. Rudolph, chairman of the
Board of Commiss toner's. by the presi-
dent Of the Board of Education. Capt.
James F. Oyster.
Upon receipt of the letter shortly be-
fore noon, Commissioner Rudolph re-
fcrred it Immediately to Commissioner
Judson. who, in turn. sent II through
the office of Captain Markham. Assistant
Engineer Commissioner, to Mr.. Ashford.
While neither of the Commissioners
nor Captain Markham would make pub
lie, any statement on the case, II was
intimated strongly that the District Of
ficials feel there has been CarelessnesI
on the part of some one. whether II
has been OH the part of school officials
in not acquaintinG themselves as to
just what the conditions were, or wheth-
er Mr.. Ashford was lax I'm not informing
the school authorities of the immediate
removal and asking their advice in the
premises. will be brought out clearly
in the inquiry suggested by Captain
Oysters letter of today.
May Mean Formal Inquiry.
1t is limited that the removal of the
school furnaces, which has been quick
" followed by the oyster letter, will
develop into a formal investigation.
It is thought probable that Congress
itself NAV he asked to take a hand, and

RUDOLPH RESENTS
ARTISTS SLAM AT
STATUES OF CITY
Commissioner Says Monu-
ments Add to Beauty of
Washington.

IF Washington looks like cemetery.
beautiful cemetery"
This was the answer of Commission
er Rudolph today to the criticism of
Robert G. Eberhardt, the French sculp-
tor, that the presence of many statues
give the National Capital the appearance
OF a burying ground. While loud in his
praises of the city and its statues, Mr..
Eberhardt is credited with the state
ment that washington will look more
like a cemetery full of tombstones than
a Capital City, if many more monu-
Tnents to famous men are erected
there"
Though neither an artist nor a sculp-
tor. it is my opinion that a beautiful
statue adds materially to the appear
ance of q park or reservation, said
Commissioner Rudolph. I'm erecting
monuments to our famous men we are
lut following the example of the ola
countries.
Europe'S Status.
The statuary of Europe IS an object
Of interest and admiration to the tour
fists. and 1t is my belief that foreicn
visitors are similarly impressed when
they visit Washington. II not in the
Capital in what city should we erect
memorials to those whose names are
famous in American history?
Taking all things into consideration.
] think Washington compares favorabIy
with any city in the country. and even
with the capitals of Europe, and does
rot resemble a cemetery in any sense
of the word"
Equally emphatic is Commissioner
Johnston in his opinion regarding the
appearance of the National Capital.
IF Mr. Eberhardt is quoted correctly,
lie is alone in his conviction" said Cen
Cral Johnston. "TraVelers from all parts
"f the world have visited Washington.
and never have ! heard any adverse
criticism of its statuary. We are all
hero worshiperS.
Should Be Encouraged
The erection of a monument to man
whose deeds have made him remem-
bered is commendable, and should be
encouraged. The Commissioners and the
fine arts commission are in accord in
Their opinion regarding the erection of
statues in Washington, and will encour-
age the Identification of the city in this
respect whenever possible"
Mr.. Eberhardt is the assistant to NJ.
NerCie in this country, and has his
studio in New York At present he is
in Baltimore examining the work that
IS being done on the Francis Scott Key
monument.
