WELFARE ISLAND
PRISON IS CLOSED
New York Penal Institution
Had Long Record of
Atrocities.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, February 8.-The
worst jail in the United States" was
abandoned yesterday.
The ponderous steel gates of New
York's hated prison on Welfare Island
we're swung wide and the last of its
long line of prisoners were led of to
Rikers Island Penitentiary.
The old Jail will be destroyed imme-
diately by W. P. A. workers. The site
will be transformed into a public park.
Herded in Same Room.
The record of the black Jail in the
East River reads like a collection of
Edgar Allen Poe stories. Built in 1928,
it escaped criticism in the days when
all prisoners were treated with british
malevolence. But in 1915 the State
Prison Commission stopped in to look
around, ana its report revealed the
atrocities for which the jail has been
condemned ever since.
Here was a cooler" cell block
without a chink of light or sanitary
conveniences, where prisoners were
consigned Ito make them behave" ="
Here also, it was revealed, prisoners
were lashed to chairs and chained
under pipe which dripped water on
the shaved heads until they fell un-
conscious or insane. And, by some
ingenious thinking, it was reasoned on
this island that rebellious prisoners
should be hosed, like mad dogs, under
$50 pounds of pressure.
Record for Atrocities.
For years an average of Is women
were received in the Jail daily. These
were all thrown into the same room,
first offenders with those who had
known the room before. old and young
together. diseased and clean. Here
they undressed and showered together
and fought for clothes which were
thrown in a pile on the floor. Then
they we're examined by the house
physician, who was man.
