ABOLISH THE HONOR

Illinois Bastile
OUTCOME OF THE RIOTING
Inmates At Joliet Penitentiary
Have Been Allowed Too
Much Liberty
UNITED Press Dispatch.l

Joliet, ILL.,, June 6.-The honor
system will be abolished in the Joliet
penitentiary as a result of the riotins
that occurred at that institution, in
which one convict was killed, two
more dangerously hurt and a score or
more of others more or less hurt
Acting Warden Bowen stated today
that in his opinion the outbreak was
due to the fact that the convicts had
been allowed too much liberty. In
stead of approaching the favors they
received, they grew FESTIVE and de-
manded still greater and altogether
unreasonable privileges. They are
henceforth to be kept under sys-
tenn OF iron discipline.
Prisoners Forced to Yield.
Joliet, ILL.,, June 6.-After one pris.
oner had been killed, eight severely
injured and several others hurt in
three riotous outbreaks at the state
prison by 1000 convicts, who objected
to new rules enforced by Warden Bow.
en-, a rain storm drove the last 200
of the mutineers to the cell house, al
though they had stubbornly refused
to cow before the bayonets of national
guardsmen.
Fires set within the prison buildings
destroyed the prison yard office build.
ing, curio room, the Office building and
portions of the chapel, the foundry oil
house, the lumber store building, rat.

losses of 100000.
There were three riots, but disor-
der was almost continuous from the
first outbreak. All offenders are lock-
ed in calls and Warden Bowen said
the strictest discipline will be en-
forced until the unruly spirit had been
smothered.
By the time the soldiers arrived
fires were set in several places and it
looked for time as though the prison
would be destroyed.
The outbreak of urruly prisoners
in connection with this fire was so
threatening Captain Hamlet c. Ridg-
way ordered the soldiers to fix bayo.
nets and drive the men back, while
the fire department combatted the
flames.
In all 1000 convicts are locked up as
participants in the riots. These men
will be kept closely confined for some
time. as there is no place for them to
work at present, owing to the destruc-
ton and damage Of buildings by fire.
