587:. Following his arrival in Indianapolis in late February, Owen established a daily routine for the newly established camp and outlined a set of rules for supervision of its prisoners. The prison camp regulations that Owen wrote placed much of the disciplinary authority in the hands of the Confederate sergeants. Owen's humane treatment of the prisoners included providing them books and allowing them to form glee clubs, theatrical groups, and sports teams. Owen also created a camp bakery that was staffed by the prisoners. Cost savings gained from the on-site baker provided additional funds to purchase supplies and food for the prisoners. Despite these privileges, Owen was also a disciplinarian who proved to be a capable and vigilant officer. He strictly enforced the restrictions on mail and visitors and only a few prisoners made a successful escape. Many of Camp Morton's prisoners were grateful for the humane treatment they received under Owen's leadership. He also earned the respect of his fellow officers and superiors for the efficient organization of the camp and management of its resources.
