COMPILING REPORTS IN
BOTH CITIES

Henry w. Sandmeyer, special agent
OF the department of commerce, has
been in Las Vegas for several days ex-
amining the books of the two cities
and of the school district, and compil-
ing a statement of the accounts of all
three for the departments census. Sew
en- years ago Mr.. Sandmeyers son, who
had come to Las Vegas for his health,
died here, and the father came out to
remove the remains to his eastern
home for interment. Although his visit
al that time was short one and be-
set with sorrow, he is pleased to re-
member the courtesy accorded him
here. and to note the progress Of the
city during the intervening years.
During his investigation at the city
hall, Mr.. Sandmeyer has been much
| impressed with the city books as kept
by City Clerk Charles Tamme, and es-
pecially by his methods of segregation
which, he declares, made his own work
exceptionally easy. He complimented
Mr.. Tamme very highly, and goes on
to the next place of his investigation
hoping, but doubling, that he may find
things so much to his liking.

The New Mexico rate cases. taken

settled shortly, although there is a
possibility that the decision may not

tho commission was unable to get to
the local cases, but now that the in

Bellwood camps, respectively, as the
perpetrators of the outrages. These
men have not heretofore been men
toned in connection with the investi-
cation.
Here IS Davis story:
Il was released just before Christ
mas, after l had served nine months
and sixteen days. l was whipped
four times during the time ] was
there, getting Is lashes twice, ten
once and fifteen the fourth time, each
fiogging being on my bare back.
q don't know yet why l was
beaten
81 went to Bellwood camp first.
where Captain Jones is in charge We
were put to work on the North ave-
nue. improvement, and about the sec
ond month was there, late one after
noon. the guard, John Robinson
cursed me and said didn't work hard
enough. l worked as hard as I could,
and told him l was doing my best.
The next morning Captain Jones
whipped me twice, without making
any investigation or asking me what
] had done
Given Twenty five Blows.
He brought the blood, and he made
big welts on my body the first time
he whipped me. I started to count
the lashes, but after | had received
eighteen or twenty ] felt SO weak
and the pain was so great I lost
count. Some of the men who saw
1t said he gave me 25 ticks After
he whipped me, Captain Jones turned
away and l dragged myself to my
feet and started to put on my cloth
ing. / hadn't finished when he came
back
Wait a minute, you black he
yelled I'm no. through with YOU yeti
He made me take off my clothing
again and gave me ten more lashes
on my bare back.
when he brought down the lash
on me again, the pain was more than
I could stand. and I put my hand be-
hind me and tried to protect my body
| with the back of my hand. The heavy
whip struck it, and broke several Of
the bones. I didn't know what was
the matter with my hand for several
days, until 1t began to swell up al
most twice as large as 1t should have
been. l finally found out it was
broken, and told the guard. He said
1t ought to have been broken, and
| made me keep on working with It.
Il was sent to the Miner camp then
| under Captain Collier. My hand was
| in bad shape, and l couldn't do as
| much work as some OF the men who
were not injured. although I did all
| that | could They didn't think I did
enough, though, and Captain Collier
gave me rs lashes when a guard re-
! ported me. A few days later he gave
| me is ticks
I've seen dozens OF men at Bell
wood and Miner camps whipped until
somebody would have to help them
| to bed I saw one body whipped so
hard he couldn't stand to have his
clothing rubbing against his body,
there we're so many cuts and bruises
on 1t. remember another man, John
James, who died last year from the
effects of the beatlngs he received.
The Guard Robinson used to have
James whipped almost every day, and
! finally James back got lame and he
was taken TO the hospital where he
died"

Quiz Turns to Donaldson.
The Grand Jurys investigation
Friday also turned toward Captain
Donaldson and his brother. 81, in re-
gard to their alleged use of county
convicts and supplies.
Captain Luck was asked about the
use Of AIonzo W Jodson, a negro who
was hostler for Captain Donaldson.
w. II. Smith, for three years a guard
at Beilwood, was asked about the de-
livery Of a wagonoad Of feedstuffs to
the Donaldson home
W G. Townley. sixteen years
guard al Bellwood and employed there
now, was questioned along similar
lines. The Grand Jury evidently was
determined to find out il there was
any criminal culpabiiity in the habit
various county officials had of using
county supplies.
All the negroes in the waiting
room at Grand Jury headquarters
Friday morning denounced Guard Gus
Suttles at Roseland camp as cruei.
They said both Suttles and Luck
were unmerciful in their treatment
&c them
One negro, Perry Craig. said that
Suttles, In fit of anger few days
ago, struck him over the head with
rock. Craig also said Suttles would
report him 10 Captain Luck for no
reason ut all, and that Luck then

foeged twice for alleged laziness In

All the negroes but one named
Alonzo Woodson, said they would tell
the Grand Jury how they had been
fogged on their naked flesh.
Craig said he could show long,
broad, unhealed scars on his back
where Captain Luck had whipped
him with the big leather strap stud
ded with brass rivets.
All the negroes said the food they
are given at Roseland Is unfit to eat
They reiterated the stories OF bad
food told by white convicts from

Luck Denies Charges.
The names of the negroes who Fri
day are testifying before the Grand
Jury ara Perry Craig, burglary;
Charles Edwards, shooting; Dorsey
Richardson, larceny; Jim Owens
fighting; Frank Rice, larceny, and
Alcnzo Woo ison, practicing medicine
without a license.
Captain Luck, who has been dis
charged for the employ of the coun-
ty. denies that there is any truth in
the statements of the negroes He
VIII tell his story to the jury.
Indications that the Grand Jury at
the close of It's probe will be asked
to recommend the adjustment of the
lash and stripes, and the hiring of
| intelligent and merciful men as
guards. are found in statements by
| Philip Weltner secretary of the Geor-
gia Prison Reform Association, at a
| meeting of the Brotherhood of St An

ton, Thursday night, that more
