"It may be a coincidence, but the corner of San Quentln prison In which the out break occurred that stirred Wnrden John K. Hoylo to mnke his criticism of Governor West's policy, Is the dirtiest hole In which J have ever been in all my experience with pris ons," declared Rev. Philip Rauer, chaplain ot the Oregon state peni tentiary, while In Kugene yesterday afternoon. Chaplain llauer said the charge made by Hoylo is too absurd for serious consideration. However, if It bad stirred prisoners In such a dirty bole as that department of San Quentln to protest. It indicates that the reform movement of the Gover nor is having Its effect outside of Oregon and In the place where re form is most needed, he asserts. Chaplain Rauer said he had visited ten prisons In different states laut fall, and found different conditions prevailing, but In none was there anything to be compared with San Queiitin. "The stench of the quarter where the trouble took place and the filth were such that nothing could Induce me to eat anything there," said tle chaplain. "A number of nowHpapcr men and prominent citizens of California visited the Oregon prison u short time ago. and looked over conditions. Aa a result they were converted to the Oregon system, and have been advocating lis adoption In California ever since. This may have stirred the fricndH of the old methods to make criticism of Governor West'H prison policy." IIOTFL ARRIVALS. flrand Hotel. C. M. Iloberu, H. J. MeCrarkon, .1. Miller, tl. C.
