We have no check on the number that may be there or on their way down. “It seems strange to us that all reports of wounded in the brawl there this morning concern union men. We understand that our people became involved in a brawl at a case and were shot while defenseless.” Reports from Reuther which reached union headquarters here, were that a party of union visitors entered the Gold Band Case, and that trouble started while they, they were eating and drinking beer. The union men were thrown out into the street, according to Reuth-1 er, who alleged they were shot by the men who ejected them. Reuther said Anderson was under “a, reign of terror.” Union officials at Lansing likewise expressed belief that none of, I their members had gone to the j

County Jail “While in general structure this jail may be classed among those thut are lab iiv building and equipment, recent changes do much in giving the building a better ranking in the classification in which it is found. However, certain important improvements in equipment are much needed here. We understand that some of these have been planned to be made within the next few months. “Among the major needs here at present, are first, the need for a new heating plant and a suitable chimney stack, the latter preferably of the outside type. Along with this there exists the need for a new roof. The recent .changes in flooring throughout the entire residence, together with improvements above Suggested should put this building in a very good structural condition. “For better jail sanitation and jail strength, we suggest that a cell toilet be provided for each tier of cells in the men’s cell block: that the tub now in use in the men’s range be replaced with shower bath, and with a simple

The official rules prescribed by statute and supplied to the county should be (Misted and toll owed. "These rules, when endorsed by the court, have the same effect as a court order and can be of use to the sheriff in the handling of his jail.
