vict Ruined by Employees
Raleigh, Jan. 28. Before the joint
committee on penal Institutions this
evening, Senator Brown, chairman of
the Bab-committee investigating the
penitentiary, stated that he did not
make a full disclosure of the results of
examinations, but bed no besitaney in
saying that the mismanagement of the
penitentiary was beyond a parallel In
the history of the State. He said the
penitentiary owed $110,000 that he
knew of. How mnch more he was un
able to say, and advised that this debt
be liquidated at once. He thought a
bond issue of 1200,000 would be neces
sary to. put the institution In good
shape, and believed that within two
years, with proper management, tbe
penitentiary would be a source of reve
nue. Mewborne, he said, was worre
than Smith and tne employees gener
ally were a disgrace to North Carolina.-

Only a few days since his commit
tee could not get books from tbe peni
teutiary because a book-keeper was
beastly drunk, and even now. there
was In the Institution a woman convict
ruined by the employees, and the con
victs alio at Castle Hayne were allow
ed to get drunk, and there and at other
places were filthy beyond description.
He urged the necessity of immediate
action, and the committee instructed
all newspaper reporters to have their
papers insert advertisements that all
claims against the penitentiary be sent
to J. A. Broun, chairman, inside of ten
days.
