Excerpt from The Delinquent Child and the Home: A Study of the Delinquent Wards of the Juvenile, Court of Chicago
Education at the city prison, and by the Pontiac Reformatory, maintained by the state of Illinois.
From the first of January, 1899, when the legislature met which enacted the measure popularly known as the Juvenile Court Law, until the first of July, 1899, when that law went into effect, 332 boys between the ages of nine and sixteen years were sent to the city prison. Three hundred and twenty of them were sent up on the blanket charge of disorderly conduct, which covered offenses from burglary and assault with a deadly weapon to pick ing up coal on the railway tracks, building bonfires, playing ball in the street, or flipping trains, that is, jumping on and off moving cars. The fines imposed, as the following table shows, varied from less than to $500 and were laid out at the uniform rate of 50 cents a day.
