WAShINGTON , March 28-ln making provIsion '
vision for limo transformation of the milary
prison at Fort Leavenworth ICan" , Into I
national penitentiary , a congress directed nt
time last session by n provision In tIme sundry
civIl appropriation bill , a now a'stem ha
been Inaugurnted by tIm government which
It Is believed wIll In tune lead to a complete
change In the metholl of caring for UnIted
! <
States crhnlnnls The system now In vogue
l Is to locate the federal convict In the various
State penitentiaries , wherever the best terms
can be procured , and It has become difficult to
fnll boiguimont for them since the pMMW ! of
the law prohibItng these con\'lcts from en
gagln In any mnploymcnt which will bring
the Product of theIr labor Into comupotitlomi
competton
wIth the prOlluct of free labor
There are about 2,000 of these convicts nnl
they are scattered about the country In the
state institutions from New York to Call-
fornln , wherever the laws of the state Pornmlt
Jermlt
thclr acceptance and acconimnodatloims can bo
found The large majority of ( bent nre , liotu'
ever , confUted In eastern Instlutons , and as
lany of the Prisoners sin sent from the
western state ; and territories , time eXI'enSt
of transportatIon I a large : temn. The nmount
charged by wcster states for cring for convicts -
victs Is so much larger than that charged by
eastern States , however as to make the snv-
ing or the diference In this partcular greater
than the aldltonal tramtsmortatiomm. Some
charge ns much ns 1 I day for the care of
UnIted States prisoners whIle the charge In
the eastern states ranges from 20 to 40 cents.
urthermore , the UnIted States 103es ni con-
trol of Its prisoners whcn turned over to tIme
state Institutions.
The Fort Leavenworth
prison will accom-
mocato only about 900 convIcts , but It Is
probable that If the experiment proves successful -
cessful other simiar Inslulons wIll bo OJ-
tabilithied. Congres a few years ago enacted
a law providing for three natanalllrisons , to
bo located , ono tn time cast , one In the west
and the third near the conteI ( of the commotry ,
but the law proved a dead Icter , ns no ap-
propriatonas malIc for carrying It Into
effect.
In the case of Fort Leavenworlh no pre-
lminary expense wIll be necessary , as the
mIlitary prison Is In good shape to receive
tim ch'l convicts. The prison has commnected
connectec
with It I tarm of 1,000 acres and Is also pro-
anl
vided with workshops various 1lnls. which
It Is believed wi all In making the instltu-
tioum seif-Bupporthmmg . The
ton self-supportng. new law provides
carefully . however , against time emplo'ment
of convicts In any way so as to bring them
Into competition whim free labor. I Is oath-
cst-
mated that. 500
thnt prIsoners can bo taken care
cre
or for $125,000 time first year , which would be

The law also makes 1 radical change In the
methods of punishment of the War depart-
ment Whie I inaugurates I national sys-
( emma for prisoners sentenced by the United
States civil courts , I abandons time national
system , except In extreme cases for mill-
mi-
lry prisoners. The nalonal plan has been
found to be undesirable for the army . and the
heads of this branch of the service express
time opinion that It wi be tn every way moro
satisfactory to punish ordinary mitary prisoners -
oners at their respective posts than at a cen-
trl institution. The Irlnclpal objection I to
tIme national plan In the army Is found In the
fact that I brings the IJrlsoners who are Incarcerated -
carcerated for slight ofenses , constituting a
large majorlty of time milItary prisoners , Into
contact with hardened
wll criminals , and has a
tendency to corrupt the offenders of a smaller
degree I ts also urged that til ordinary
military offenders . can bo mace imSefub l about
