INSPECTION OF FEDERAL
PRISON IS. TO BE MADE
Not Indication That Department Is
Suspicious, Says Attorney
General McReynolds.

An inspection of the Atlanta federal
penitentiary is to be made by direction
of the Attorney General This will not
take place until Attorney General Nc
Reynolds gets around to it, to use his
own phraseology. and will not convey
any significance OF suspicion of condi-
tiOns. S. -~s, --.-.......
The Attorney General is DESTROYS to
send to all federal penal institutions an
impartial observer to obtain intelligent
opinion from outside and disinterested
sources of conditions as they exist and
suggestions for Improvement. He ex-
presses himself as believer in frequent
inspection Of all penal institutions, asy-
lums. hospitals. etc. in the interest of
their good conduct, and of advancement
In application of the best ideas for i'm
provement.
He also 1a"orssgrvih1 the fullest support
to wardens Of penitentiaries. The re-
sponsibility Is theirs. and they must an
swer for conditions, he, points out, and
should have the utmost freedom of action.
William III. Meyer. warden of the At
lanta penitentiary. has come under the
criticism of Julian Hawthorne. q recent
convict in the Jail, and DR.. w. j. Morton,
for the conditions existing there. Charges
against the management We're supported
by some of the guards. Attorney General
McReynolds advised Warden Meyer that
he would support him In whatever action
he might take. and that he was fully
empowered to dismiss the guards and re-
place them with men loyal to him in the
interest of good management If he saw
fit. Warden Meyer, in u statement from
Atlanta. has ascribed the charges to give
or six disgruntled guards and employees
who have been trying to break down the
| administration and destroy discipline to
make vacancies for themselves and
friends" There has been strong intima-
| ton that he will dismiss the men in
vOlved.
Inspection OF the federal penitentiary
at Leavenworth was recently made by an
individual selected by the Attorney Cen
| eral for the purpose. His labors were
pleasing to Mr.. McReynolds, although he
| is not certain that the same man will be
designated to inspect the Atlanta prison
The inspection OF the Leavenworth prison
was reported on about two weeks ago.

were very unconcerned appearing people
to be facing prison sentence when the

For several weeks past the custom

Woodward Abrahams was boarded and
examined at Philadelphia in the search.
The Angel Is the next plaster-laden ves-

will give her the same treatment as was
given the Abrahams, except she was not
taken In charge. by a revenue cutter.
Inspectors Constantly Aboard.
When the vessel passed in the capes

and came with her up to Alexandria
When the schooner was locked inspec-
tors from Baltimore went aboard. Night
and day three men, Inspectors Myers,
Farall and Eylar, will be aboard the
schooner and will watch every bucketful
of plaster taken out of the vessel.
Soon after she locked a close search
was made of the quarters both forward
and aft Every nook and corner that
could be looked into was examined. The
members of the crew were questioned
but nothing was found. After the vessel is
unloaded another search will be made,
and as three days will be required to un-
load the vessel, it will be the latter part
of the week before the watch on her will
be ended. AS soon as Capt. Kneeland
could go to the custom house at Alex
andria and enter his vessel. the work of
removing the cargo was begun. j. A.

BUSINESS HIGH ALUMNI
RESC|ND FORMER ACTION
Advocate No Changes Be
Made in School System
of District.

Members OF the executive COMMITTEES
OF the Business High School Alumni As
sociation have voted to rcscind Their ac-
ton taken in u recent meeting when APP
prevail was given to q movement to III
troduce business courses in the academic
and scientific high schools The commit
tee also approved the present system Of
separate high schools in Washington spe-
cializing OH the various courses of study
which are now offered.
Friends of both the Business High
and the Mckinley Manual Training
Schools have felt considerable anxiety
during recent weeks over the publicity
tjven a movement for the so-called
Cosmopolitan high school. which, they
think, will not only affect the standing
of both of these institutions, which have
specialized courses, but which they
claim cannot give IS thorough and eff
cient training as the schools in which
all of the pupils specialize either on
technical or business studies.
Oppose Proposed Plan.
On motion Of William Patched, for
mer president of the Business High School
Alumni Association, the members of the
executive committee placed themselves
on record Tuesday as Directing to the
High School building by diverting pupils
from the two specialized high schools OF
Washington, the Mckinley Manual
Training and the Business High School
The new Central building. the erection Of
which at nth and Clifton streets will
soon begin, will have capacity of $500
pupils. more than 1,4Oo in excess of the
present enrolment of the Central High
School. and the plans call for superb
equipment for the business and technical
sections Of the building which eN-
pected to attract many pupils from the
two high schools which specialize on
these courses.
That high schools of any kind should
not be allowed to grow abnOrmally large
was also the sense of the members OF the
Business High Alumni. which met Tues
day. The committee voted in opposition
to the Capitalization Of large numbers of
pupils in. one section of the city, and
recommended the limiting of the capacity
of a single high school building to 1900
members. which is greater than the en-
rollment of any of the local institutions
ut the present time.

two persons still quite under thirty,
who are nevertheless forward eX
ponents of the new gospel of social
service. Ambitious. so it is said, for
career in foreign missionary fields,
Miss Wilson, yielding to the persua-
sions Of her kinsfolk, gave up for
eign service for work at home. She
identified herself with the social serv-
ice workers in the famous Tight
house district" of Philadelphia. She
has been devoted to the Young WON
ems Christian Association, travelling
many miles in all seasons to speak
in behalf of the cause. Very little Of
her time since March 4 has been
passed in Washington, the allure
ments Of social life at the capital hav-
ing failed to divert her interest or at
tention.
Groom Social Worker.
Mr.. Sayre has had a career in many
ways Identical in point of service.
His association with the Grenfell
mission in Labrador, the fruits of his
achievements as an explorer in Lab
rador, his affiliation with the Dis
trict Attorneys Office in New York
city, all portray clearly enough the
bent of his mind and the intensity
Of his philanthropiC purpose, He will
take his bride to WILLIAMSON, Mass
where he is connected with Williams
| College.
While eschewlng the round or teas
and fetes which characterize social
life of the day, neither Mr.. Sayre
nor Miss Wilson is of the deadly Sc
rious trend of mind, Both are good
dancers, both are fond of music, both
play good game of tennis. Miss
Wilson who is considered the beauty
OF the White House family, is fair
haired, blue eyed and slender and
girlish in form, Mr. Sayre, who is
very blond. rather resembles his
father-in- law to-be, President viii.
son.

in the case of Miss Roosevelt's we'd
ding, the admission cards bear the
name of each guest.
Just who have been included in the
list Of invitations is still a matter of
conjecture. Members of the diplo-
matte corps have always been guests
to whom special consideration has
been displayed. Whether they will
appear IN civilian attire or uniforms
Is d query yet to be answered. Mrs.
Wilson received the French Ambassa-
dor and Nine. Jusserand on Monday
afternoon, and it is reported that she
took this opportunity TO express her
wishes to Mr.. Jusserand, who, as dean
of the corps, has the duty of settling
the question Of attire.

WASHINGTON, Nov. with Of
fetal announcement of the arrange
ments 1t has just become known that
the wedding Of Miss Jessie Woodrow
Wilson and Mr.. Francis B. Sayre, in
the White House on Tuesday, No
vember rs, will reflect the serious in
terests in life of the Presidents
daughter and her flance. The cere-
mony will bring together the diplo-
matte representatives of foreign pow
ers and their wives, and will be thor

In the historic East Room, where
