said he expected the strike would be
completely broken by Tuesday.
The union men started the fight
against Mrs. Haverty. he said. because
she was a woman, and they thought
she could be more easily frightened
than p man. They would never have
used the same tactics against a man.
There have been various attempts to
influence Mrs. Haverty to give up the
contest. Tires had been punctured and
efforts made to intimidate the new driv-
ers. AS part Of the campaign, fake ad-
refreshments ii is said, have been put
in newspapers for chauffeurs, in re-

had TO endure and that If an agreement

to work l asked him if in this case
the union would reimburse her for her
losses IN the strike and he replied that
ii would not.

with a union which could not control
it's members was out OF the question he
said that the union would put her out of
business. ] called his attention to the
fact that witnesses were present and
heard what he said, upon which he
went away. We ale going right on

COMPARTMENTS PROVE
UND0ING OF VESSEL
Cause of Steamers Capsizing
in Lake Huron with Loss Of
Twenty eight Lives.

Port Huron, Mich, Nov. 15.-One of the
strangest mysteries in connection with
the destruction OF vessels and heavy loss
of life on the Great Lakes by last Sun
DAYS storm was solved this forenoon.
when William Baker diver, identified
the overturned vessel In Lake Huron,
thirteen miles northeast Of this port a.
the Charles s. Price, OF Cleveland. The
Price. a steamer 5O4 feet long. has been
lying in the lake ever since the storm,
with only few feet OF the bottom OF her
bow above water. She is said TO have
carried a crew Of twenty-eight. All OF
them must have been lost.
1t is still thought that the wrecking or
the Price and the Regina must have been
In the same locality. The diver, how
ever found no evidence of another sub
merged vessel beside the Price. The opin-
ion that the two steamers went down
near each other is borne out by the fact
that the body of one Of the Prices men
when found was wrapped In a Regina
life belt.
In the opinion OF the diver. the Price
did not go down as the result OF coll
lision. II didn't find any damaged plates
or anything else TO indicate collision,
said Baker. Captain Robert Thompson.
who superintendent the diving operations
explains the overturning of the vessel as
follows:
THE boats hatch cover had been
washed away and water poured into the
matches The cargo had shifted so that
the steamer lay on her side, and this.
together with the fact that the water
tight compartments, which are IN the
bottom Of the steamer, were filled Win
air, instead Of water, turned her over.
Probably the members Of the crew VINO
worked in the engine room and arr are
still in the steel hull"

doctor whenever they wish. That is the
one good thing about the place.
THE utter loneliness and desolation,
the inability to speak TO any one. the
feeling of helplessness is terrible. A
new convict is not allowed TO communi-
cate with her people for two months
after her commitment When she does,
she cannot touch or kiss them. The
visit is in the presence of a matron.
One woman told us she was not allowed
to see her children at all.
"Of the 113 women whose records we
examined only nineteen had previous
records against them. They are not hara-
ened criminals at all. Their sentences
were mostly for larceny, robbery ana
manslaughter. One woman, only TWEEN
ty-five years old. was up for ten to nine
teen years for stealing $40 so. She was
committed from Brooklyn. We snail
have her case investigated.
THE heating system is very made
Quate. The girls say the water in their
cells freezes. Their blankets are made
of shoddy. They are heavy. but not
warm. Many of the patients in the
hospital are suffering from tuberculosis.
The prisoners are allowed TO receive
newspapers. but these are carefully eX-
purgated by the matron. All news or
William Church Osborne's experience in
prison was suppressed as well as all the
news of the Sulzer trial"
Il did not want the women to know
that their Executive was of the same
criminal type as themselves Miss Net
lie Leonard, head matron. told Miss
Doty
Miss Doty and Miss Watson will con-
fer with other members of the Prison
Commission this morning and will make
public their report as soon as possible,
either tonight or tomorrow morning.
Until then they refuse to make known
their recommendations for reform be-
yond what they have already said, that
the prison should be moved to some
place in the country. that the silence
system" should be abolished and that
there should be a rotation Of employ
ment, or at least some arrangement by
which 2 woman would do the kind Of
work for which she was best fitted.
Miss Doty received one cent and a half
day for hemming blankets. A fine OF
90 cents day is common punishment.
Miss Mary Garrett Hay, member OF
the Prison Commission. said that she
approved most heartily of the abolish
ment of the silence system.
1T makes dead creatures o. them,
she said. "They are turned out of pris-
on utterly untitled to take up the life
of normal human haippa Prison should
improve. not cruelty, the spirit. When
she comes out of prison a woman should
be better able to make her way in the
world. or else she will soon become de-
pendent on society again"
