she says she hasn't been in the game
since the district closed. However, a
record is produced that she was fined
S25 and costs in another court a
short time ago and the old woman
discharged at the same time.
The officer says the old woman So

The same amount of time is spent
by the judge telling the old woman,

that she is lying. She is promised a

fact that she unquestionably needs

JALITY OF MERCY MUCH PRESS-AGENTED is
STRAINED IN MORALS COURT
81 JANE Whitaker

BY JANE whitaker
There are few records made
against men in the morals court, as
have told you previously, but the eX-
plotted women fare differently. Al
most uniformly they must plead
guilty to secure any degree Of leni-
ency from the court. This means a
record against them. If they are
placed on probation they must be
found guilty. If they promise to
leave the city or the district the
record shows that promise and that
they are found guilty.
Innocence must not be protested If
the exploited woman wants leniency.
have had my attention called sew
eral times to the fact that the quality
of mercy is very strained.
I will cite you just one case. A
house on E. 9th st. was raided. The
keeper we will call B., the girl
charged as an inmate A. and the man
was a visitor to Chicago. B. was sick
and didn't appear in court. The man,
not out on bond, did appear and en-
tered a plea OF guilty.. A, Tie SIIL'
entered a plea of not guilty.
The man said he went to the
house in an intoxicated condition.
The officers say he had been there
before for the purpose of prostitution.
The man says he did not have rela-
tions with A. at any time and was too
intoxicated the last time to know for
certain whether she drank with him.
She says she did not. The officer
says he got her out of another room.
The Judge insists the girl is guilty
because she was found living in the
house Of a known exploited woman.
She says she went there with her
husband and they had a quarrel and
he left her, but they have made up
and are going back to New York.
Again and again the Judge prom

ABUSES
N CONVICT MINES

Montgomery, Ala. Sept. 14.-Con-
vict life in the mines of Alabama can
find a comparison only in the descrip-
ton of the life of Russian convicts
exiled to Siberia. Grand jury investi-

conditions.
Two instances are cited, one where
a convict was forced to work with
broken arm, and another where con-
Wet suffering with heart trouble wac
com PEELED to la Dor in the mines until
he dropped dead.
1t was also learned through the In
yestigation that convicts were told
they could pay OUT for 5000. NO
matter how shocking or enormous the
crime they had committed or how
many years they had been sentenced
to serve, it is said, the convicts were
assured the warden would get them
pardon upon the payment of 5000.
The investigation was carried on In
Bibb County. where the State conducts
coal mine. A report has been filed
with Governor Henderson, who 1t is
expected will go into the matter more
fully and a shakeup in the convict
system of the State. with prosecutions,
will probably follow.
