Position and Prominence-Redwin

Luxuriously-Other Sensational De-
velopments Also Cropping Out.
ATLANTA, GA, March 3.-The frss
authentic woman in the Redwin case was
discovered to-day. With the discovery OF
the woman the whereabouts Of a good deal
of the money the cashier made way with
from the Gate City Bank is explained. The
woman now spotted by the police is not OF
the high social circle in which the public
has been expecting 10 find the Delilah of the
wsyward cashier, but In every other par
tioular she fills the bill to a surety. She is
pretty educated. and the wife Of man Of
good position and character, from
whom, however, she has been
separated since Lewis Redwlne crossed her
path, Her course shows that she is a
woman Of the type that cause the downfall
OF men. Up to a year ago she was a happy
young wife and mother. She met Redwins
and her life was changed. She left her
faithful husbands side to begin a wild life as
the mistress Of the young cashier. Her
Of the court and she woman bound tho
young man tighter than ever in the meshes
Of her infatuation.
A DUAL LIFE.
Redwine led dual life From the bril-.
liant circle Of society In which he moved he
turned to the outlawed society Of another
mans faithless wife. He had established
her In modest-looking cottage in Bellwood,
bought and paid for In her own name and
given TO her as part of the price of her
falthlessness While the house is unpre-
tentious enough on the outside the interior
Is luxuriously furnished with everything
that money could buy or exaggerated taste
suggest To disarm the suspicion
OF her neighbors, the mistress
of the young cashier did type
writing In a little front room fixed up
to present the appearance Of industry.
Redwine had also provided a telephone TO
facilitate communication with the woman,
who was provided with servants enough to
run an establishments twice the size The
cew TO her existence was furnished to-day
on the trial of Owens and Black, accused
Of aiding and abetsing Redwines escape
ard, the keeper Of the house to which
Redwine went on the afternoon OF
his disappearance from the bank,
told on the witness stand of the
meeting Of the woman and Redwine
at her home. Acting upon this information
the woman was finally located, to-night
after an almost hopeless search In the
suburbs OF Bellwood, where she was be-
lieved to be living.
THE WOMAN DELIRIoUs.
Since the arrest OF Red dwine the woman
has been in a badly collapsed condition.
She has not left her bed since that day and
is now under the care Of physician pros
vided by Redwins's friends at his desire.
SO stroug is the unholy passion between the
two that even In his cell the fallen cashier
does not neglect the woman who helped to
ruin him, aud is kept daily informed OF
her condition. When seen tonight she was
delirious. In her rawlings she constantly re-
ferred to the fatal meeting at the house OF
Cora Howard, and the woman who keepa
her house and is nursing her in her sickness
told the story OF that event. Redwine had
not been at the Howard place five minutes
before he had summoned his partner and
confdant Ia sin. She came to him on the
wings Of the wind and did not leave him
until he was arrested by the police and res
moved from that place. Redwin told
her Of the trouble he was i'm
and when the woman returned TO her own
establishment she made a oonfidant Of her
housekeeper.
EXPECTED TO gLRE WITH HIM.
From this woman 1t is also learned thab
her mistress had made arrangements to
leave the city for an indefinite period, pre-
sumablY TO accompany Redwine on the
flight he had planned, but which was
Inverted by the discovery Of his shortage
before he was ready to 20. His mistress
has evidently spent a goodly sum Of the
money Redwine took out OF the Gate City
Bank vault. but so far there is mo-
evidence In the possession Of the
police showing that she received any OF
the csc, 900 Red wine is said to have taken
when he left the bank. Her part In the
case is being worked very quietly, and en-
that account no arrest has been made,
though the house is under constant sur-
veillance. Il lie believed that she is in pos
session OF information that will lead to 8
sensational discovery il not the recovery OF
the money.
Another development of the trial OF
Owens to-day was the statement OF the
prisoner that be had been present at a con-
ference of Redwine and eleven of his
swell friends on the Sunday preceding his
flight of Tuesday. This conference, Ovens
claimed, was for the purpose OF arranging
the details of the cashiers flight, to aid in
which he had been engaged. Owens was
placed under s. 900 bond and BLACK under
81 900.
Black is the man with whom Red~
wine, the defaulting cashier, was
found when captured by the po-
lice. He had been hired by Owens
to guard Redwine. When Owens, who
is well-known bailiff, was arrested he
told conflicting stories about his connection
with the case, first saying he was acting for
Redwines friends and afterward that that
he had RedwIne under arrest and claiming
the reward. Redwine told a story of Ovens
holding him and demanding $4,000 ram
