the whole affair and declared that he
would have the matter investigated
Mr.. McCIea says that he told Sheriff
Smith that the system of feeding pris-
oners is wrong. That while every sher-
if in the country does it, it is wrong
to give the sheriff Is cents for each
meal and not have this amount of food
given the prisoners. McCrea says the
sheriff retorted: HWell, if they work
that plan they will have to raise the

Offer of Warden Pratt.

The federal officers say that the ac-
ton of placing government prisoners
either In state prison or the reforma-
tory would have been taken long ago
had not the attorney general stated
that the state would charge 1925 a day
for each man. The county only charged
75 cents day. A week ago Warden
Pratt of the state prison sent letter
to Marshal Anderson in which he stated
that the state would board prisoners for
the same amount charged by the
county.
Under present conditions the county
receives IS cents day from the gov
ernment for each prisoner. Of this
amount IS cents. OF Is cents 4 meal. is
allowed the sheriff for board, aud tho
county pays other expenses out of the
remaining 30 cents a day. II is claimed
that the sheriff does not spend the en-
tire 45 cents for food for each prisoner.

Complaints to Consuls.

Complaints made to various foreign
consuls, who, in turn, reported to their
superiors at Washington, D. c., includ
ing the Norwegian, Swedish, English
and Greek governments, by prisoners
in the county Jail, caused the federal
investigation Of the jail's condition
that is being made by Joseph Fishman,
United States prison inspector, accord
ing to Marshal James II. Anderson. The
marshal says that the various conf
plants charged lack of food, bad food,
insanitary conditions and brutal treat
ment by the deputies.
The action of tho government in
sending the most recent federal pris-
oner, Milton II. Ice, alleged counter
feiter, to the state prison instead of
the county Jail, as has been the practice
heretofore, is declared by federal Of
flcers to be merely whip to force the
county officials TO clean up the Jail
and remedy conditions there. There
are still several federal prisoners at the
county Jail and it is probably they will
be left there, but, owing to the age Of
Lee, it was deemed necessary TO con-
fine him in the state prison where con-
Gtions are claimed to be better.

Investigation Is Begun.

According to the federal officers, the
investigation was not begun upon com
plants made by government prisoners,
but as result of complaints made by
foreign prisoners of the county. When
the foreign governments complained to
the department at Washington no ac-
tion was taken at first, but when Of
ficers of the departing mt of Justice
learned that the federal prisoners here
were being placed in the prison, an in.
vestigation was begun. Most of the
complaints were made and the investi-
CATION commenced early in 1913. How
ever, another complaint to the Nor
wegian consul has been filed by a gov
ernInent prisoner, who is being held
on charge of impersonating an officer
Of the United States army,
Early in March, 1913, the sheriff
was notified that the prison conditions
wero not satisfactory to the govern
ment. w. w. Ray, United States dis.
