"A thorough investigation of a re- cent escape made from this jail by q federal prisoner was made, and as a result of such investigation we find the following:
 The Jury's Findings
 "1. That federal prisoners have been permitted to remain outside of the cage or cells and in the inside corridor of the jail in utter disregard of orders given by the United States marshal that all federal prisoners should be kept confined inside the cage.
 70. Orders given by the United States marshal that no women be per mitted to visit federal prisoners except in the presence of an officer have been disregarded and women allowed to visit federal prisoners alone in one portion of the jail corridor equipped with a bed which was shielded from the view of the other prisoners only by a blanket loosely hung about the bed, one woman who made frequent visits to the jail to visit federal pris oner being allowed to occupy such i'm provised room alone with the prison CT from ten minutes to one hour at a time.
 "3. The requirements of the United States marshal that no persons be al- lowed to visit federal prisoners with out a written permit from his office has also been dfsregarded.
 "4. At least one person. not a deputy sheriff or officer of any kind. has been permitted by the jailer to have access to and possession of the jail keys and to enter the jail and release federal prisoners rom the inner cells or cage into the corridors.
 The Recommendation On Prisoners
 ''5. It is our opinion and we so recommend that no federal prisoners should be confined in the jail of Mari copa county until and unless the same is made more safe and sanitary and the directions and orders of the United States marshal are observed and fol- lowed out in the matter of safeguard ing the prisoners and the permitting of visitors under proper surveillance. We further recommend that a hot wat CT boiler be installed for the purpose of furnishing hot water to the prisoners.
 We find that the elevator in the federal building at Phoenix has been out of repair and not running for many months at time and notwithsta nd ing that it had recently been repaired is not yet in running order and dur ing many days of this term has not been running. We recommend that proper officers take the necessary steps to immediately repair said elevator and that it be kept in repair and operation
 As To The Postoffice
 Tt has come to our attention that on account of the large increase in business of the Phoenix postoffice, that at certain hours during the day the corridor becomes greatly congeSted- We believe that this can be remedied by the custodian of the building keeping all outer doors to the lobby of the postoffice open during office hours, and recommend that that be done.
 We also recommend that a cement sidewalk be placed at the north end of the postoffice building. connecting the entrance with the sidewalk on First avenue.
 All of which is respectfully sub mitted.

U. [. GRAND JURY OPENS HUT FIRE 0N COUNTY JAIL
Charges Orders of U. $. Marshal Were Disregard ed - Recommended No Federal Prisoners Be Kept There

Charging that the orders of the United States marshal have been dis regarded. the federal grand jury made the recommendation that no federal prisoners should be confined in the county jail unless it be made more safe and sanitary and the orders of the marshal relative to safeguarding the prisoners and permitting visitors only under proper surveillance be ob- served.
 The grand jury's report was made a part of the record yesterday by Judge Dyer on the recommendation of the United States attorneys office
 The attorneys claimed that it was matter Of public interest and that 1t affected the affairs of the court, mak- ing the motion days after the federal judge had declared it was not the busi- ness of the jury to make recommenda- tion-that if the government did not care to place it's prisoners in the coun- ty jail it should take them elsewhere
 Judge Dyer repeated his former re- mark that a jury's duty began and ended in acting on bills. but because or the insistance Of the government coun- sel he agreed to make the report matter of record.
 The grand jury bases it's report on an investigation of a recent escape made from the county jail by fed eraI prisoner.
 Makes Definite Charges
 Among the charges are: prisoners have been outside of their cells con- trary to orders of the marshal; women visitors have been permitted to see prisoners without the presence of guard; visitors have seen prisoners without permits from the marshall: a person not an officer has handled the keys and given federal prisoners the freedom of the corridors.
 While the greater part of the report Is directed against the county jail. the jury takes occasion to rap the elevator which was out of repair for a day or two. It recommends the proper of ficers to take the necessary steps" Evidently learning that effort would be made to have the report made pub lie, someone got busy. for the elevator was in running order before any action could be taken.
 Other minor recommenda tionS were made. The report follows:
 We visited and inspected the Mari copa county jail where federal prfs- oners are kept and found it to be en- tireIy too small and in very unsani- tary. filthy and unhealthy and unsafe condition, and found 54 prisoners con- fined in Is cells. The juvenile celia small. dark filthy room-was occupied by two small boys with no hammock or cot upon which to sleep, the inmates being compelled to sleep upon the hard. filthy cement floor. Better ventila tion should be provided in the jAil by re- placing the solid sheet iron ceiling over the cells or cages with iron bars or
