Another drawback to effective ad-
ministration. the report said, lies
In the fact probation officers have
been chosen with little eye to their
fitness; it is known that judges have
appointed as probation officers rela-
tives or friends who needed 4 job,
and the necessity for suitable train
ing and experience for the position
has been disregarded."

were blamed for conditions such as
these, the report declaring there
is serious need for improved pro-
baton personnel in most jurisdic-
tions." and adding that selection un-
der civic service is q reform to be de-
sired.
On the whole, however, 1t was
emphasized, the Federal service
rates high.
"The Federal probation service
has been in operation less than is
years." the report said, but INTEL
ligent centralized supervision has
brought about a development in the
character of the work accomplished
which places this service among the
best in the country"
While there is a woeful lack of
statistics to support conclusions. the
department said,' it appears that
about one-third Of the offenders
found guilty by State and Federal
courts of general jurisdiction Are
placed on probation or get sus-
pended sentences. There is little or
no light on the situation in minor
courts.
Short-term probation also was
criticised by the report, which
stated that an indefinite term even
up to five years might be desirable,
but opposed extension beyond five
years.
On the basis of an analysis of
10000 cases from the probation de-
partments of 16 States and the

crimes are poorer probation risks

any significant difference between

alleged felon is charged by the police
with crime but the evidence Is not
submitted to the grand jury, ac-
counted In 1898 for only per cent
OF the crime solutions, whereas in
1886 these so-called willie Pye"
arrests were accounting for Is per
cent OF the solutions of crimes.
Pointing to an increase of approxi-
mately 40 per cent in the number
OF true bills returned by the grand
jury in 1887 over 1896, DR.. Nolan
said that there was decrease OF 81
per cent for 1888 as compared to
1887. Increase of indictments in
1898 over 1896, when a higher crime
rate prevailed, he pointed out, is
due to the insistence Of the Criminal
Justice Association that all persons
charged with serious crimes by the
police be indicted for the felonies in
which police have evidence they
were involved. Persons charged with
q number Of crimes by police in 1896
were seldom indicted for more than
two crimes, the report pointed out,
while now they are being indicted
for all the crimes for which there
Is evidence.
Praising the "celerity of trial"
DR.. Nolan said that with three GRIM
inal courts in session, more than 60
per cent of the cases were disposed
Of within four weeks after indict-
ment during March, April, May,
June, September, October and No
vember. But during July, August
and December, he pointed out, only
one-third Of the cases were disposed
Of within four weeks because courts
were in session only part of the
time.
With the three courts in session

Three Weaknesses,
Three weaknesses Of the present
system were emphasized by the re.
port. These are: Lack Of legi3la-
tive uniformity, inadequacy Of su.
pervisory officials, and attitude OF
the courts themselves.
"The statutory regulations per.
tanning to the selection of proba.
TONERS vary greatly from State te
State, and the lack Of uniformity In
the statutes seems to be dictated
rather by an arbitrary legislative
discrimination than by reason" II
was said. This selection should be
based upon the findings of trained
and qualified probation oflcers
equipped to investigate offenders
rather than upon arbitrary and
unrealistic statutory restrictions, ;
the report added.
These legislative restrictions, II
continued, are intensified when
judges are guided in granting pro-
baton by such factors as pleas OF
guilty, turning States evidence, O,
application for leniency.
without doubt" 1t asserted, "the
sentencing practices of Criminal
Court JUICES are being subjected to
more and more criticism. Much OF
the criticism is deserved because the
sentencing records Of too many
judges disclose arbitrary practices
and "hunch system" of sentencing
offenders which does not instill pub
lie confidence in the administration
Of the criminal law.
Varying Standards.
'The existence Of varying stand.
ards in the sentencing of criminals
is fraught with serious consequences
Respect for the administration OF
the criminal law can be maintained
only as long as the general public
has confidence that the practices
adopted by law administrators, and
judges in particular, are based on
sound reason and the exercise OF
defensible discretion"
The attitude Of the courts toward
probation officers also came in for
criticism. .
although inadequately trained
probation officers constitute a Sc
rious weakness in the administration
Of criminal justice" it was ampli-
fed, mot infrequently the fault
lies with the courts use of the pro-

berry were reported to the police, as
compared with 7,507 crimes in 1887.
Increased police emciency in the
apprehension of felons was shown.
Arrests were made in 2,074 of the
1882 crimes reported, or in a per
cent OF the cases, as compared with
37.3 per cent in 1887. This repre-
sents an increase of ~ per cent in
arrests as compared to the total
crimes committed.
There were 1893 major crimes
charged to juveniles, or 1853 per
cent of all arrests made for serious
crime. In 1887 cases charged to
juveniles numbered 513, or 10 per
cent of all arrests in that year.
DR.. Nolan listed number of fac
tors which entered into the decrease
in crime during 1898. These included
increased interest on the part of the
public in problems of crime con-
troll, greater efficiency on the part
OF police in detecting crime and
apprehending criminals, the Coop
GRAFTON of District Attorney David
A. Pine in securing speedy trials for
persons accused of crime, the fact
that three criminal courts had been
in session during the greater part
of 1898, closer scrutiny of persons
taken out on bail by professional
bondsmen and sentences for habitu-
al criminals which were more COM
parable to those given in neighbor-
ing States.
Increased efficienc yin the dispo-
sition of cases in District Court was
shown by figures at the close of the
calendar year. DR.. Nolan reported
that 166 of the types Of cases fol-
lowed by the association were pend
ing trial at the end of 1898, or 15.7
per cent Of the cases indicted, while
at the close of 1887, he said, 1854
per cent of the cases were awaiting
trial.

allows the Police Department more

should also be remembered that no

Long prison terms for persons

clared, "are beginning to become

Discussing probation, the report
declared that of the 767 cases found

Probation Practice,

BY ]. A. FOX.

Probation administration "is not
only falling short Of its full poten-
tialities but has, in many instances,
degenerated into a lax and purpose
less exercise of judicial clemency
which complicates rather than facil-
itates the administration OF Grim
inal justice" the Department of
Justice said last night in the initial
report of three-year study on
probation, pardon, parole and prison
practices throughout the country.
While sharpest criticism is re-
served for probation policies of the
States, the Federal system, praised
for broad accomplishments, was
found not to be without shortcom-
ings.
Importantly, however, in view of
the recurrent attacks on probation
and parole in general, the report
made this conclusion:
although this survey sets forth
many Of the shortcomings of Amer
lean probation laws and admins

clusion that overshadows all the rest,

CHICAGO, March 25.-Poltical
chieftains were agreed today that
Chicago's mayoral election April r.
pitting Republicans against Demo-
Gratis In the first major interparty
test Of the year-would have an
important bearing on 1910 plans.
In the race were Mayor Edward
J. Kelly, veteran Democratic leader
seeking reelection, and Dwight H.
Green, vigorous young attorney
drafted by the Republican COM
mand to lead the party out of the
minority woods.
So far their struggle for the right
to rule the city has revolved about
local politics and problems but STRAIT
egists have looked beyond the cur
rent campaign to the gubernatorial
and presidential battles of next year.
G. o. p. Triumph Predicted.
"A. K. Stiles, Republican State
. chairman, predicted a triumph for
the Green ticket would absolutely
assure a Republican victory in Ili-
nois in 1910, and probably in the
Nation as we'll"
James Slattery, head of the Ilh-
nois Commerce Commission and one
of the men on the Democratic
drivers seat, cautioned the partys
workers against overconfidence be-
cause the Republicans were "con-
centrating on the mayoralty in the
hope that they can make come
back in the State and Nation in
194O."

the election of Green would be a

He asserted the Democrats spent
S2,500000 to nominate Kelly in the
February primary because they were
"afraid to have the spotlight of
honesty focused on their padded
pay rolls and political contracts"
Kelly, 81, has run on his six-year
record. He has ignored his oppo-
nent. He declared the city had made
progress during his administration,
