There continues to be an increasing interest in the subject of
Penology, very much attributed to the publicity given through the
meetings of the National Prison Congress held in various parts of
the country. I receive very many letters asking for information and
especially from libraries asking for complete files of our “Journal of
Prison Discipline and Philanthropy,” speaking of it as a very valuable
publication. As our back numbers are now all disposed, and as requests
continue to pour in upon us, I would be pleased if any to whom this
Journal is sent, have back numbers previous to 1900 which they do not
wish to keep, would send to the Secretary Fifth and Chestnut Sts.,
Phila.; it would enable us to fill orders from libraries.
