To all Intents and purposes he Baa

but later he said he had no knowledge

Some of Governor West's friends are
of the opinion that Olcott will not be
ready to extend wholesale leniency to
these men.
Then you Intend to make this mere
ly a personal matter on your part and
not take the recommendation of the
Parole Board as carrying enough
welcbt to merit your consideration,
he was asked.
"That does not enter Into the ques
tion, besides It la nobody's business,
aid the AcUn Governor. "When
these recommendations come up to me
1 will pass on them. I am not saying
what my atUtude will be toward the
recommendations of the board. I do

Tha board today Investigated 10
rasea and allowed but four paroles.
These are to be recommended to the
Acting Governor for his sanction.

Last month 12 were paroled. L'nder
the rules of the board, howerer. only
those who hare work assured are al
lowed to leave the prison and there
are atlll elyht Jobless men of the 11
who are at the prison awaiting a posi
tion on the outside before they can
leave on their honor.
That the Parole Board has In view
even a stricter supervision of the pris
oners at the Penitentiary who are pa
roled than l afforded under the old
system Is the statement made by mem
bers today. The plan of the board as
It has been advanced along experimen
tal lines and developed Into a perma
nent feature of the board's policy la to
parole none, except In Isolated and ex
reptlonal cases, unless their sentence
la practically expired.
Tnder thla scheme." said James R.
Linn, member of the board, "a man
who baa but three or four months to
serve la turned loose under a parole
lie la not allowed to be free until he
has work provided for him and then
he Is under supervision to whomsoever
he might be paroled.
"In event at any time during that
Bt months he violates his parole he
la returned to the prison to serve out
not only the remaining Ave months,
but be also loses all of hla good time
and might be compelled to serve for
eight months or a year, aa the case
may be.
Katlra Tlsse Served oa Ret arm.
"In addition to thla he la not ac
corded good time for what period he
might be out of the prison on parole.
On the other hand, when he Is re
turned, he serves for the entire time
that he haa not been In prison under
his sentence. In addition to the good
time that be might have gained for
meritorious behavior In prison."
L'nder a blank which has been pre
pared by the board no prisoner la pa
roled unless be Is the subject of a
statement from the Judge who sen
tenced him. This blank la sent to the
Judge before the case of the prisoner
Is passed. The blank contains ques

crime for which the prisoner was con

life, habit- and family relatione. The
Judge la also asked If. In his opinion,
the prisoner la guilty of the crime of
which he was convicted and If. In the
Judgment of the court, the prisoner
should serve only his maximum sen
