BIG INCREASE IN
STATE PRISONERS
November Records Show
1882 ConvictS. Increase
of 107 Over October
By FRED u. GoRMLEY
Montgomery BureaS. The Age Herald,
s2l-2 First National Bank Buildina

Montgomery, November 7.-(spe-
eial)-Alabams's prison population
passed far beyond the 1850 mark dur
ing October. according to figures OF
the state convict department com
piled from reports received from the
prisons. One hundred and seventy
five new conviets were received into
the state prisons during October,
showing the greatest Increase in any
one month since the depression Pc
riod of five years ago This is an in
crease of ia over September.
When the records were opened for
october there were 2.755 eonviets be-
hind the bars OF state prisons. When
the records were opened for Novem-
Der there were 2S62 conviets, an in
crease of 1O7 after deducting the
number released during the month.
OF the IT'S received in October 90
We're white males, 113 eolored males
and ? colored females. On Novem-
Der l there We're al white males
compared with 1902, white females
compared with and 1919 negro fe-
males compared with 1874. showing a
total of 2.S62, November L, compared
with 2,T55, October /. When the
last fiscal year ended. September 80.
1920, there were 1885 state convicts.
on December 81 there were 2,450 and
Monday there We're 1854.
The great increase in the prison
population has caused no surprise, as
the number of convicts has always
increased with financial depressions.
This Increase in hard times has never
been regarded as an indication that
the state is becoming worse but
rather as an indication that more
persons are suffering misfortunes.

ing.
Col. Thomas w. Miller, alien prop

Mrs. Bergdoll had been directed to
vacates on October 81 it was because
she had maintained IL was an effort
for her to administer the porperty.
She admitted the property belonged to
Grover, Coloner Miller said and made
a charge of $4,000 year for adj
ministering II.
MY agents in Philadelphia in
formed me that Mrs. Bergdoll did not
vacate on October 81, and that she
claimed her reason for not doing so
was on account of a certain illness
she had contracted" he said

The statement asserts that Mrs.
Bergdol's conduct is a ''palpable ef-
fort to evade the law" inasmuch as
she has other properties fully fur
