THEODORE R. McKELDIN, GOVERNOR                   723

direct that all of the compensation for which the employer of said
prisoner is liable hereunder, shall be paid to the institution in which
the said prisoner is confined at the time of his injury, and of the
compensation paid to any such institution under the provisions of
this Article, the institution shall retain a sum equal to the average
weekly amount received by said institution (if the compensation shall
amount to so much) for the labor of said prisoner over and above
any bonus received by or for the use of said prisoner, and the surplus
of any such compensation, if any, shall be credited to and belong to
the injured prisoner.

The disposition of the compensation as above provided shall con-
tinue until the prisoner shall resume work or until his death or
discharge from the institution. When such prisoner shall resume
work any compensation to which he may still be entitled by reason
of partial disability, temporary or permanent, shall be payable to the
institution and first applied towards reimbursement to the institution
for any loss which it may sustain in the earnings of said prisoner
by reason of his injuries, and the balance, if any, shall belong to and
be credited to the amount of such prisoner. Upon the discharge of
the prisoner, whether by reason of the expiration of the term, or, by
reason of a pardon or parole, the remainder of the compensation for
which the employer may be liable hereunder shall be paid directly
to the prisoner, and it shall be the duty of the institution in which
any prisoner, who is receiving compensation under the provisions of
this Article, is confined, to promptly notify the State Industrial Acci-
dent Commission of the discharge of any such prisoner in order that
an amended award may be made directing the payment to the said
prisoner of any future compensation to which the prisoner may be
entitled.

Whenever any prisoner in the Maryland Penitentiary or the Mary-
land House of Correction shall be engaged in any extra-hazardous
work within the meaning of this Article for which wages or a
stipulated sum are paid by said institution this Article shall be
applicable thereto, and the average weekly wages of any such pris-
oner injured in the course of his or her employment, shall be the
average weekly wages paid by the institution to such prisoner, and
in addition thereto, a fair and reasonable sum to be determined by
the State Industrial Accident Commission for the board and main-
tenance of such prisoner not to exceed the amount customarily
received by the institution for its own use for prisoners engaged in
extra-hazardous employments for private employers. The State In-
dustrial Accident Commission in making awards to such prisoners
so injured in the course of their employment, shall direct the institu-
tion employing such prisoner to deduct from its award the sum found
by it to be reasonable for the board and maintenance of such prisoner,
in determining the average weekly wages, and the balance, if any,
shall belong to and be credited to the account of such prisoner. Upon
the discharge of such prisoner whether by reason of the expiration
of the sentence or by parole or pardon, the said institution shall pay
the remainder of the compensation to which any said prisoner shall
be entitled, to the prisoner, and shall promptly notify the State
Industrial Accident Commission of the discharge of any such pris-
oner in order that its award may be modified accordingly.

Upon the death of any prisoner resulting from accidental injuries
arising out of and in the course of his employment within the meaning
of this Article, his dependents shall be entitled to compensation as
