that their minds were blank, and men
SO embodied by the treatment they had
received as to ensure their transfer to
hospitals instead of to prisons.
The appearance of the prisoners was
pitiable. Emaciated creatures STUN
bled forward to thank the inspecting
officers for their delivery. Long boards
in many cases were matted over dirty
eountenances on which once the fash
ionable element of the federal capital
had looked, for many of those impris-
ened were formerly prominent in So
ciety in politics and in the army.
Madero's Promises
Each succeeding administration con-
tinued the use of this ancient fortress
as a prison-a use to which it was
put by the Spaniards. The late Pres
ident Madero inspected the prison just
prior to his taking charge of the gov
eminent at Mexico City. He was hor-
fified by what he saw and declared
with much solemnity that his first of
fetal act would be the removal of the
prisoners and the conversion of the
fortress into an arsenal. He did go
so far as partially to prepare a mill
tary prison at a point at short dis
lance from Vera Cruz. to which he
talked of removing the prisoners, but
this promise to clean out the prison
was one of his promises which he me-
elected or found impossible to keep. s
The handling of and providing for
the poor of Vera Cruz also was taxi
I
ginning to suffer for want of food
when the American naval forces UNI
dertook the task Of providing for them.
Not DESTROYS, however, of pauperizing
them, work of public character has
been provided for the majority of
needy ones.

George stoneman have signed the
agreement, which relieves tho city
OF Richmond from delays and court

the city and the county practically
closes the incident
This means that Richmond will
add to itself real estate and personal
valuations from Henrieo county of
about ten mtlliom, and about one
million and a half from Chesterfield
county.
Richmond will entail much expense
in maintaining this additional bur-
den. This 10 shown by the reports
OF the various departments OF the
ell at the request Of President Peters.
The departments will require. as the
heads of the departments indicated
this amount to fully cover the add

the proposed territory was cut OF by
the Judge, but very little difference
will be noticeable in the requirements
Of the departments. which are shown
