report made today to the. State Prison
Commission by President John I’.
.lacckt-l. who also referred to the New

Secretary McLaughlin's report on the
Monroe county penitentiary condemns
the practice of sending short term irr-
toxlcation cases to the penitentiary.
In his report on Sing Sing. President
Jact'kcl says:
“This prison Iias been occupimi eigh-
t_v years and though the masonry is
crumbling. necessitating constant rc-
pairs. yet it might. endure for another
eighty years its a dungeon. It Is an
axiom that the State of‘ New York has
failed to keep pace with the advanced
demands of public sentiment in the.
housing of its criminal classes uirtl has.
ino doubt through a narrow and false
r stnse of economy tolerated a danger-
