the much lauded amnesty proclama-

occasion of the tercentenary celebra-

humbly requested by relatives of po-

still further reduced the favors eX-

tiles were quick to take these circum-
stances as hint that the .proclama-
ton really did not mean what it said
after all. The result has been an ex-
traordinary influx of reports from
various prisons and places of exile,
of deprivations and cruelties prac-

in the Batoum prison, reliable cor

For women to be confined here is a
worse punishment than for them to
