prison, Representative Little said he wanted to know what kind of treatment was beihg given prisoners, and insinuated that he thought the three prisoners killed recently had been "put on the spot" by the officials. "We have been told," Little said, “that the officials for three weeks knew a prison break was being attempted, and that the guards were planted outside the wall looking for such an attempt. “It looks like to me that letting these men go over the wall into certain death was putting them on the spot as much as a gangster puts his enemy on a spot." Joseph Coakley. a prisoner sent to Joliet for robbery, was found dead this week in a solitary confinement cell. The coroners inquest said death was caused by a blood clot in the heart. Little said he wanted to find out if it was a practice to “hang prisoners to cell doors with their hands above their heads because they had dropped a few crumbs on the floor and taken a Hittle extra butter." This was said to have been the cause of Coakley's punishment. The investigating committee will start its inquiry Tuesday. Little is chairman.
