worth of clothing supplies in big
dry good store here. At another

taken.

CALIFORNIA PRISONERS MuT1NY
Change of Administration Signal fol
Uproar Among Prisoners.

Sacramento, Cal. ~ Greeting the
change of administration at the Folsom
state prison by demonstration in
tended to brighten Warden James A.
Johnston, the convicts in the prison
mutinied Friday night. From until
IL o CLOCK they cursed former Warden
Reilly and his successor and defed the
guards to stop them.
The confusion reached such a degree
in one of the larger cells that guard
shot to intimidate prisoners who had
climbed to the bars and were cursing
him.
Cry From Every Cell.
When the bugle sounded "lights
OUT at clock, the last order to be
executed with Warden Reilly in Office
cry went up from almost every con-
vict.
The shouts were mingled with curses
against Reilly and the guards of his ad
ministration. johnson was also cursed
For two hours the noise continued
with increasing vigor.
Convicts dared the guards to stop
them, called the names of particular
guards and defed them to step inside
the cells.
Turnkey Threatened; Quits.
The name of Assistant Turnkey F..
Ramirez was used many times by tho
prisoners. Ramirez had been told sew
eral days previous that he would be
killed by the convicts if he remained
on duty until June l. He resigned Fiji
day night, with the close of Reilly s
term. Four other guards also resigned.
It is said that Friday night IS demon
stration is only forerunner of what
will be attempted to brighten Warden
Johnston and his men.
When Warden Yell took charge eight
years ago a similar demonstration was
given by the convicts, but when the
first break was attempted Yell taught
the prisoners lesson that was remem-
bered all of his term and he had no
further trouble. Three convicts were
killed at that time.
Lenient With Prisoners.
The prisoners had learned that War
den Johnston's theory of prison man
agement was to treat convicts with
leniency. -
On taking up his duties Johnston
prepared himself for the worst. He
gave orders to the guards to keep a
strict watch on the convicts. Two days
of his administration have passed with
out any serious trouble.
The convicts had intended to repeat
Friday nights performance Saturday
night, but for some reason did not.
There were a few cries when the lights
went off, but they were not continued.
