WHO ARKTDCKHOLDERS
IN GREAT M TRUST?
United States Steel Corporation
Has Sent Many Letters to
Brokers to Find Out.
New York, Nov, 30.—The United
States >8t«tl Corporation has sent out
to a long list of banking and broker
Interests a letter which asks that a list
of Its stockholders be submitted to tho
company. The company’s Idea Is to get
together evidence that steel sharps are
not concentrated In a few hands, but
are widely held by persons of small
wealth. Many persons own shnres In
the names of bankers nnd brokerage
houses, so that the steel corporation
can not determine from Its own books
exactly how many stockholders It has.
Tho bankers and brokers can glva to
the steel corporation the number of
stockholders they represent and the
number of shares Involved, .
Estimates are that nearly 60 per pent
1 the steel common la-held In the
names of brokers and bankers for other
Individuals.. . Seventy-five stock os-
change houses are raid to have In their
strong-boxes 1,000,000 shares which be
long to clients. It has been supposed
that there were 25.000 common stock
holders and 70.000 preferred stoMthpld-
era of record.
It Is thought that In the rnurse of
present canvasses the steel corporation
will discover that It lias many morn
stockholders than that, and that many
of them arc small Investors. Some an:
thoritles have guessed that between 35
and 40 per cent of all the stockholders
are women.

COWETA’S PRISON METHODS
ARE HUMANE TO PRISONERS
By ROBERT B. M'CORD,
of Georgia Prison Reform Association.
The prison association And* many
thing* in the penal system of Georgia to
■•umlMnn hut .tore In a while it find*
something very laudable to commend, and
when wc find till* we shall praise It Just
a* strongly aa we condemn those atti
tudes and methods that only degrade and
penalise with little attempt at correction
and permanent restoration to good cltl-
xenahip. ^
Mr. Rernhnrdt. the Held secretary, is
constantly going over the state In the aid
and educational work of the association,
nnd he haa excellent opportunity to com-
l*are one county, with another, one war
den with another, and one camp with oth
er rump*. Georgia haa about a* many
penal system* a* It ha* countie*.
Mr. Bernhardt has Juat returned from
a visit to i'oweta county, and he nnd*
there some departure* from the ordinary-
way hf treating prisonern in Georgia.
In the nr*t place, they have a new and
modem Jail It l* constructed on the
moat up-to-date plan* with excellent ven
tilation and sanitary arrangement*. Toi
let* and I lathing facilities are In every
cell, and these cells are light and airy,
no odor* anywhere, no crawling and bit
ing creature* such aa we find In so many
Jails of the elate. .
Moreover, in thl* Jail we find complete
separation of the race* and sexes from
sight of on* another. This Is not now
the ca*e with many other county Jail*
in Wc
these
Imuortanco of It.
But that which strikes us aa most un
precedented In Georgia I* what the war
den of convicts In Coweta county In do
ing. Warden Nash is praised hy every
body In Newndn, the county seat, a* bo-
in* a man who doe* not follow; In the
oi«l nits when immunity is si lutaht*. Be
cause other wardens of other counties al
ways have kept chains on the prisoners
Is no rea*>n why he should do likewise.
Warden Nash has between 40 and 60
negro men prisoners under him, hut now
not one of them Jvears a chain. He has
taken them all off and apiwdnfed all the
prisoners guards to prevent any escape*,
and he does not have any escapes, for
even prisoner* appreciate a trust when
It Is clearly shown to be a trust. He has
[only the ordinary number of guard* over
the men, and they And little trouble In
manuging the prisoner*, for the latter feel
that they are treated a* men even tho
they have violated law and are paying
the penalty on the roads of the etate.
Corporal punishment haa not been abol
ished by any written order of the warden,
hut with hi* new attitude toward the
prisoners he And* almost no occasion to
use the strap. The prisoners themselves I
have abolished this rfcllc of the past, be
cause Warden Nash la helpin^Jliaa^AJ
do it, While they are chalne^PH
be little feeling of disgrace at being
whipped, because they are more helpfesn
than little children; all self respect and
WU1 power of the better sort I* gone, and
consequently there Is nothing more than
tho discomfort in being bowed down and
whipped.
But when the chains are taken off and
the manhood of the man Is constantly
appealed to while trusting him as far sal
seems possible with a prisoner he gains
and holds some pride and self-respect, the
best expression of his will power Is de
veloped, and hla prison experience acts as
a discipline and training to prepare lilm
for citixenship as he cornea out either to
contribute something to or prey upon so
ciety. Ills feeling of gratitude or hatred*
for his prison keepers determines much
as to whether he will soon return to
prison or become a valuable man in some
community.
