Boston penal officials out. – Mayor Removes Commissioner Skinner and Deputy Carruth.
 BOSTON, Dec. 24. – Mayor George A. Hibbard’s Christmas surprise for Penal Commissioner Vernon V. Skinner to-day was his removal from office and the appointment in his place of Stree Commissioner Gui C. Emerson. Mayor Hibbard directed Emerson to dismiss Deputy Commissioner Herbert S. Carruth as well.
 Mayor Hibbard bases his action on the allegation that Skinner and Carruth have been guilty of “suppression and misrepresentation” of the conditions existing at Deer Island, where the Suffolk County Hous of Correction is maintained.
 Skinner on Wednesday testified before the Finance Commission that the penal institution’s steamer Monitor had been loaned for private excursions at the request of the Mayor or his secretary, James C. White; that officers at the Deer Island institution had been kept in office after having been detected supplying prisoners with morphine, and that intoxication among the officers at the institution was not extremely rare.
