LEAvONWORTH PRISON
IS BEING REMODELLED
ALL DEPARTMENTS WILL BE
GROUPED UNDER ONE ROOF
Old Buildings, Relics of Civil War
Days, to Be Razed-New Ones to
Be Built By Prisoners
(By United Press.)

LEAVENWORTH Kansas, Nov.
ga new disciplinary barracks re-
built by prison labor, forms an eight
million dollar project for Leaven-
worth. Plans for it have been ap-
proved by the War Department and
construction is now under way. With
the single exception of the dollhouse,
every building comprising the present
barracks will be razed.
Grouping all departments e the
institution under one roof, the single
building to be erected in sections by
prison labor, involves a scheme of
building to be stretched over a period
of six or eight years. On account of
fiuctuating number of prisoners avail
able however, no accurate estimate
can be made of the date of compile
ton. At present inmates of the bar
racks number about 1900.
The United States disciplinary bar
racks is almost an institution of Civil
War days. Some of the present
buildings were erected between 1865
and 1877. Other additions were
made as required when new branches
necessitated broadening out of the
institution buildings.
The new structure will have a
maximum frontage of 668 feet, a
maximum depth of $3.50 feet and will
be seven stories in height at the
peak. With the exception of steel,
materials of struction-concrete
stone, brick, ETC., will be made with
in the barracks.
A farm colony, stone quarry, ma
chine shops, clothing shops and fac
tories-additions made since estab-
lishment of the barracks-are to be
housed in new buildings. Administra-
ton offices, guard quarters, hospital,
store rooms, factories and machine
shops also will find a place under the
same roof.
Architectural plans call for a dis
tinctive plainness. Inner courts are
to be so arranged, however, so that
every room will have windows on the
outside or on a court. A sufficient
portion of the new building will be
erected to house one department, be-
fore the present bidding used by that
department is torn down.
The United States disciplinary bar
racks is separate institution from
the Federal prison located here.
Major Williams Blanchard, as
construction quartermaster of the
barracks is in direct charge of the
construction work. Preliminary plans
were launched under the administra-
ton of Col. Sedgwick E. Rice, former
commandant. They are being for
warded by Major Gen. j. H. Nc
Rae, present commandment of the bar
racks.
The disciplinary barracks at Fort
Leavenworth is by far the largest of

Pullman cars operated on this train.
So rapidly has the volume of traffic
increased that it was deemed expedi-
ent to divide IS into two sections.
This arrangement practically adds
another train to the service and will
add accommodations enabling belated
travellers to make their train, which
they could not do otherwise.
Day coach passengers will travel
on the first section and Pullman pas
sengers on the second.
