PRISON QUIZ
McReynoIds' Action Shows Probe
Is To Be ,Made-LaFo toilette
Offers Aid to Howard.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 10.-One I'M
portant result already has been
achieved by the agitation in respect
to conditions at the United States
Penitentiary in Atlanta. There is go
ing to be an official investigation oy
the Department Of Justice.
This has been denied from time .
time by persons in Washington and
laughed al by the friends OF Warden
William H. Meyer, but their answer
is contained in the fact that the de-
partment actually has sent a special
Investigator to Atlanta, with instruc-
lions to make a thorough probe of the
treatment of the prisoners. as well as
of tho entire administration.
Senator LaFollette has expressed
his interest in the agitation and has
informed Congressman Howard of
Georgia that he will give his aid in
bringing about a Congressional inves-
tigation il Mr.. Howard decides to ask
for one,
Attorney General McReynods does
not appear impressed with the case
that has been made against the pris-
on administration by the affidavits in
his possession. He admitted Satur-
day there probably were isolated
ca SEES of cruelty and isolated cases of
poor discipline, but that an arraign-
ment against the whole administra-
ton should not be brought on this
account.
That medical college students are
permitted to experiment on the pris-
oners is the charge contained in the
affidavit of Charles Anderson, an ex-
convict. He said that he was taken
from the prison to the hospital in
street car and that after he arrived
FIVE of the students Tipped coin to
see who should administer the an
esthetic. He was returned to the
prison in an ambulance and tainted
five times on the way.

Afterward the Solicitor asked one

LAWYERS generally agree that this

Colonel Payton H. Wade was in
the hands Of his friends before the
Governor Friday, when a splendid
delegation OF citizens urged the Dub
lin lawyer upon Governor Slaton as
| most fit and proper man for the
judgeship of the Court Of Appeals,
soon to be made vacant by the resig
nation of Judge Robert Pottle.
To be sure, il is rather unusual for
delegations to appear before the Elk
eCutive in connection with Offices not
actually vacated but Judge Politics.
determination to retire, made known
publicly several weeks ago, is so un-
equiVoCal that this hearing did no
violence to the spirit of the prece-
dents already set in matters Of this
kind, even though it did run counter
to the letter Of the same.
Colonel Wade is a graduate of the
University OF Georgia, and, while
students there, he and the Governor
were roommates Besides Governor
Slaton, Colonel Wade was in college
with Victor Smith, Clark Howell,
Harvey Johnson and many other
prominent Atlantans, all Of whom ap-
peared before the Governor in his be-

lege associates throughout the State

There is NO stronger body of men
in the State, so far as political in
fiuence is concerned, than the Uni

appointment.
There are several other gentlemen
of high standing who have been rec
commended most highly to the Cover
nor's attention in connection with
this matter. He has stated to several
persons of late, moreover that as yet
his mind is entirely open.
Colonel T. N. Hopkins, City Attor-
ney of Thomasville. whose resigna-
ton last week so upset the city IA
theirs of that burg, has declined to
reconsider 1t, as suggested by Coun-
cil-and has even more emphatically
declined to couch 1t in more polite
language.
He says he doesn't think it was dis
courteous, all things considered, and
he doesn't care to add to or take any
thing away from it.
At the meeting of the City Coun-
Gil this week, 1t was voted that the
resignation be returned to Colonel
Hopkins, with the request that he
Change the language and make it
moro polite and courteous" He had

resignation until its language Is
changed, so there it Is.
As the coloners term of service
expires on February /, it is not likely
that anything further will be done IN
the matter, but that the controversy
will be permitted to die a natural
and unlamented death.
