INVESTIGATORS SAY
Grand Jury Calls Cells "UntIt
for Animals, Much Less
Human Beings"
COOLER BREEDS INSANITY
Legislature Asked to Erect New
Prison-Charges Rejecting
on Warden Kennedy To
Be Taken Up To- day.

The June grand jury finished the first
part Of its investigation OF Sing Sing
prison yesterday afternoon and returned
a presentment 10 Arthur s. Tompkins,
presiding justice Of the Supreme Court,
sitting in Part l. at White Plains. in which
it recommends that the prison be aban-
doned and new one erected
There is no mention made in the pre-
sentiment OF the charges made by George
" Blake, special investigator appointed
by Governor Sulzer. which reflect on John
: Kennedy. the warden. but II is under
stood this matter will be taken up when
the grand jury meets to-day. James W.
Osborne. special Deputy Attorney General
in the inquiry was quoted yesterday es
saying the real investigation would start
to-day.
The presentment says in part.
I'VE. the grand jury. recommend 10 the
Governor and the Legislature Of the State
OF New York the erection Of new state
prison 10 take the place Of Sing Sing
prison. upon a fertile and well located
site OF from 80 20 100 acres. and the
abandonment Of Sing Sing prison.
We further suggest that immediate
action be taken at this special session Of
the Legislature TO accomplish this result
II the same is within the law.
The physical condition of the prison
Is such that in the opinion OF the grand
Jury il demands immediate and drastic
action 10 the end that remedial legislation
be adopted at once correcting the abuses
herein set forth.
The cells are UNIT for housing ami
mails. much less human beings. It is the
most crying situation that exists among
state institutions and is a scandal TO the
State Of New York.
The housing capacity Of the prison is
twelve hundred We find that during the
last two years as many as two thousand
prisoners have been lodged in the prison
at one time. and that the number Of In
mates has always ranged from fifteen
hundred 10 two thousand
I'VE find that convicts in pronounced
stages OF tuberculosis are housed with
men OF perfect health
In speaking of the dark cell' or the
cooler" which Is dreaded by the prisoner,
and in which he is placed II the infrac-
ton of the prison rules is serious. the
jurors say:
we md that within a short time be-
fore this investigation began men have
been driven insane nv the Incarceration
in the cooler and that in consequence Of
the agony and suffering while incsrcer-
ated have attempted suicide.
The medical staff is entirely inadequate
and at night there is no physician on the
premises

MOSS SAYS PUBLIC'S AWAKE
Assistant District Attorney APP
peals for Direct Primary Law.

II the people cannot be trusted To solve
the great problems Of our government,
then the form Of government is a failure
The country had better cease To he a re-
public and a monarchical form OF govern
ment he established. The people had bet
ter give up the practice OF selecting their
candidates for public Office every year
and the fun they have electing them.
Frank Moss. the Assistant District At
torncy. said all that and more when he
spoke at a mass meeting 10 discuss the
direct primary bill at Public School Al,
I'm Greenwich avenue. last night.
81 am a Republican" said Mr.. Moss,
but this matter Of direct nominations is
nothing new to me. ! favored II ten
years ago. If the measure is passed | do
not believe the millennium will come. no
more than 7 believe the salvation OF a
country depends upon any one particular
remedy. The police situation in New
York is very much the same. lot OF
wise-looking men cannot get together and
draft law and say: That's all there is
To it, What We need is less-wiser and
stronger men.
When Andrew Jackson secured the
nomination OF President by state conven-
tons rather than Congressional caucus a
long step forward was taken. State con-
ventions In their time were an advantage.
Now, however people have awakened from
their lethargy and demand TO be allowed
TO take an active interest in political az
fairs. The direct primary law should
answer that demand. In twenty years
perhaps some new law may be needed
Its enactment now is a matter OF political
progress"
