CORRQBRATIVE TESTIMONY FROM

The In vcsllfc' ition of the legislative
committee ef the pii- -ns .>t 'f.-xas
cortinues.
The committee visited Houston last
we.-k, arid while there lieard corrabo-
rative evidence of the cruelty at
Rui k. A young man named II. Cohn,
was the witness. He was recently
pardoned by C i\-. Campbell.
Cohn .■■aid that he had .-• en Tlios.

of penitentiaries, in i harge of the
prl on at üiisk, strike Allan Krown,
a negro eoinlet, with his walking
.-tick, ki.oc-iiing l-lni to the ground.
The cause r.f the blow was the ne-
gro's failure to take orí his hat at
Dt.-rliaill's apiiriinch.
"That night," t«stifled C dm.
"Brown was \\ i i i p 11 i:i tie- building

state urns, be slid;
"We reached the farm about 4
o'clock in the morning," declared the
witness, "and after half an hour's
rest we wi re put to work. Colonel
Herring, superintendent of ptniten-
tlaries, came to tin* farm and in com-
menting upon the cane crop, told the
cot-victs that there was leather
enough at the farm to get the crop
<iff and he wanted it tak<ri elf with-
out ill-lay. He said he would issue
nil the ' ii'tlers m c. sstiry to take it

"We were furnished slickers at
the Imperial farm. They came to
the knee but did not protect the legs
frpm tho wet. We were compelled
to gather wet cane and the guards
made lis take off our slickers so that
we could work faster.
"For two months at the Imperial
farm we had only bacon, greens ami
socr corn bread to eat. The treatment
by W. (i. 1'iyor, the sergeant at th
farm, was fairly good. 1 have seen
him whip convicts, but never saw
•him strike over thirty-nine licks. I
ed it us 11111 Mid a c mvi't p - ache-«
'-tu e. Xo - ading matter was fur-
nished."
All \frald of Hiirliani.
Representative I ,e e brought out
that Cohn was at Rusk several
months, and during his confinement
there .Major Durham, now assistant
superintendent in charge, was ser-
geant in control nf the ore be-d
forces "Tbe convicts were all afraid
of Major Durham." said the witness,
".s'one of them w uild come within
his reach."
Cohn then narrated tin- Allan
Brown incident.
Cohn said that at the Imperial
state farm he had seen Sergeant
Pryor strike c un lets on tho head
with stilks nf sugar cane At the
Ka- tham farm ho fro<|Uently saw As-
sistant Sergeant Klttlebran strik •
•n.-n with hi piirt. The provocation
fur the blows was the failure of men
to keep up with their working
sou,ids.
"While 1 was at Imperial," said
th. witness, "everything «a.* lousy
I furnished rnv own underwear an I
hat seven suits taken from rue. J
.sitw the steward wearing a pair •?
gloves <>nd a pair of shoes that we:
sent to rue. My brother-in-law cam -
down at mv complaint md identified
these article and informed tbo sir-
•re.-int. wh-i said he would see about
it."
Iiepl.-ing to IU-pr -sentaiIve Stamps
the witness said that he believed
convicts should work eight or nine
hours "us hard as they could stand
It," while in the penitentiary, as it is
"the only way they can keep the'r
minds," bur that lie did believe they
should be driven.
•'I think convicts should be pun-
ished when tliev deserve it, but not

Aslo-d if while at. 11 it* iiüaslham

said "There wis no ta.sk there; It
was all yon c oibl do. Thcv drove
ou to it and the guards would run
their h irse-i over you." lie said also
that while at this farm it was th.
daily custom to run t > ard fr >¡n
m
work.
Concerning the sleeping accommo-
d-iti ms which the penitentiary af-
him, C. hn said that lie form 1
the best beds at Huntsville. At th>
Kastham f irm the beds were better
than thi.se at the Imperial, ther. be-

have seen him break the skin. I. penitentiary, the young and the old,
saw him whip five negroes one- morn-
ing and break the ekln 011 all of
them. I saw him whip two other
convicts, giving them the legal limit
of thirty-nine lashes and break tht
skin. I saw him whip a convict nam-
ed Johnson, giving him thirty-eight
hushes, and next day he gave him
twentyelght.
Iiaslicd fnr Giving Testimony.
"I was not whipped at the Das tham
farm, but I saw Sergeant Watley
whip Fred Manning. Sergeant Wat-
ley came into the building one morn-
ing about 4 o'clock and called for
.Manning. 'You showed your skin to
the committee; now show it to me,'
said he. He whipped Manning forty-
eight lashes anel brake the skin.
Manning was incapacitated for work
by the whipping, but he had to work
nevertheless."
This testimony corroborates the
story which the committee heard at
Rusk last week touching the punish-
ment of this man Manning. As Cohn
told the details of the whipping his
recital varied scarcely a word from
that Df a convict who was also pres-
ent at the time of the pur.ishment
and was afterward transferred to the
pen at Rusk.
"The treatment at Huntsville,"
continued Cohn, "compared to the
treatment on tho farms. Is like be-
ing a freo man. The treatment has
materially improved Nlnce Coleman,
the former underkoeper, left.
"At Rusk I was under Captain
Boyd, and the food wai about tho
same as it Is at the farms. It wan
much 'better at Huntsville. Captain
Boyd's treatment was the best I havo
seen in the whole institution. He
would always listen to any tale that a
convict might bring him and would
not turn the convict's complaint over
to the underkoeper. I never saw
him strike a man, neither did I see
Mi. Slsk, the underkeeper at Rusk,
strike anyone.
"At the Imperial state farm T lay
sick in the building without a doctor.
I worked every Qtaday and ^got 80
cents ior It. While I was there Rev.
Jake Hodges came once and preach-
the lirst iffender and the habitual
criminal. Of the guards under
whose control he had been those who
had treated the convict in a way tj
srain their confidence were Messrs.
JJndloy and Hamley. Tlie.«e men lis-
tened patimtly to tho prisoners anl
would carry their complaints to tho
underkeeper or the sup' rintendent
immediately. Th«i other did not ap-
parently care for the confidence cf
their charges.
Cohn said that at the Imperial
state farm he had paid $i' a quart
for whisky procured from a, trusty
"I drank it In the building and kept
it there. | drank it before the guards
and I have taker tho guards' money
and gr.mbled with it for them. The
m rgeant k'uvv rf th? gua.ds gam
bllng with ns a.• the men would tell
him when he tame into the building
at night."

Mr. Cohn knew how to ganble be
<ore he went to the penitentiary.
"I Knew how to piav -.arts," he
answered, "but I had never played
for money before I went to the pen
itentiary. In prison I did."
Representative tSamp.s undertook
to undermine the credibility of the
witness by prejectlng Inquiry into his
present habits, hut this was by vote
held improper by the committee.
Before excusing the witness Chair-
man Ollmore asked if his testimony
had been given because of any pre-
judice or malice toward anyone in
authority in the penitentiary servic:*.
"No, sir." he responded a.uicklv.
"I have no prejudice or malice to-
ward anyone. While I was In prison
I got the best there was In the sys-
tem."

From County Commissioner May
the Courier-Times learns that
county teams which have ben work-
ing in the Troupe precinct have bo"n
transferred to Mr. Johnaun's precinct
ami they are now working in
Pine Springs country, and will
in that precinct for tight or nine
weeks.
Commissioner May states that some
fine work has been done in 'his pre-
cinct. Several of the main roads in
the southeast end of the county have.
been given a thorough working, an-1
the people are delighted jvlth th>
results.
Mr. May states that the work done
on the Whitehouse and Tyler road,
which was done several months ag>
is still in fine shape. This rood was
built of sand and clay mixed at the
pr per consistency, as other roads
are being built, nnd It stands as a
practical demonstration to all doubt-
ing Thomases In that section that
good roads can be built of material
that is to be found right on the
ground in the vicinity.
There aro four teams, wagons,
scrapers and other Implements fjr
working the road In Mr. Johnson's
precinct. Some five or six hands are
employed besides the three or four
convicts.
The gang under the direction of
Commissioner Strange Is working in
the Carroll community. They will
finish up the work in that section by
the 15th and will then be transferred
to the Lindale precinct, and work
under the direction of Commissioner
Mallory. They will be in that pre-
cinct for eight weeks or longer.
