from q san Corr,snnnient u Tie Tribune
Albany. Jan. ~ Recommendations
for building new prison at Sing sing
on the east side Of the railroad tracks
and the reconstruction Of the old
prison and the other buildings on the
river front into modern shops were
made to-day by Senator Henry Vi. Sage,
chairman of the Finance Committee.
Mr.. Sagc's suggestions arc the mrs,
concrete efforts 80 wipe out the pres
emit methods Of housing prisoners at
Sing Sing. Advocates Of prison re-
form expect that the Senator's recon-
mcndations will be adopted and that a
star, at least will be made to change
conditions.

fact that a large portion Of the prop

there. and it is all good for grazing
