Hurd Forces Establishment
of Court to Try
Inmates
Coultrey Keeps Place
But Handwriting Men in Cells
Is Forbidden and ''Isola-
ton" Is Reduced
By JOHN J. LEARY, JR.

Albany. March 6.-The prison COM
mission was unable to agree on Com
missioner Richard VI. Hurd's demands
for reform in Clinton Prison to-day.
But James VI. Carter, Superintendent Of
Prisons, this afternoon ordered the
changes for which Mr.. Hurd has been
contending. These are:
The abolition OF the practice OF hand
cutting men in cells, either 20 doors or
in any other way.
The establishment Of prison court,
consisting of the warden, the principal
keeper and the prison physician, TO
Judge those accused Cf violating prison
rules. Hitherto Principal Keeper
Thomas F. Coultrey has been sole
judge.
The construction Of a padded cell for
men who may become dangerous TO
themselves.
At the same time Mr. Carter an
nounced that he would send as many
as possible OF the men now held IN
isolation cells 70 other prisons.
Already he said, eve have sent
several such men 20 other prisons
where 10 appeared that they might do
better No man VIII hereafter De neld
in isolation 20 the point that MS
health may be endangered. Il has
been demonstrated that some men VINO
cannot behave in Clinton will do well
in other prisons. Isolation VIII be
reduced 10 a minimum.
"The establishment Of court. con-
sisting Of the warden. prison physi-
clan and principal keeper, should be
a good thing for everybody. II is not
we'll for one man 20 have the full
burden. L Is better 20 have others
sit with him.
"These changes are IN line with the
policy Of the department 20 make I'M
provements wherever 10 can be SHOWN
that a change will be an improve
ment. 7 am not sure shat the dis
missal Of Coultrey. IN many respects
a splendid officer, would be an I'M
nrovement. with these changes the
causes of criticism OF him may dis
appear
The commission was IN session four
and one-half hours to-day, and then
referred the entire Clinton matter 70
