Detective VIII Bring Notorious jim
Small From Charleston.

Detective VIII Bring Notorious Jim
small From Charleston.
Jim Small, the negro burglar who is
held in Charleston, subject to the or
ders of Superintendent Reilly. will be
brought to Savannah tomorrow by
some members of the detective force.
superintendent Reilly was notified dur
ing the morning that the police here
could have Small and he Immediately
wired to hold the negro.
Detective Murphy went before JUS
tice Wickham and swore out the war
rant charging the negro with a felony.
This paper was forwarded to the
Charleston authorities, with word that
an officer will go forward on Sunday.
Small recently agreed to return with
out requisition papers, and it is pre-
sumsd that he has not changed his
mind.
Conclusive evidence was obtained
against the negro Small at a time
when there were nightly robberies in
this city. He entered a jefferson street
and revolvers. The negro secured the
key to the place by first visiting the
room of the awn-broker and going
through his trousers. He was arrested
while attempting to dispose OF one of
the stolen watches a week later and
was placed in the big room at the sta
ton house.
On Sunday morning it was discov-
cred that the burglar had burned his
way out of the room and made his es-
cape from the prison. Small declares
that he is not guilty of all the hard
things that the officers say about him.
and has never yet even admitted that
he robbed the pawnshop. He did, how
ever, state a willingness to do the right
thing il the officers would not be too
hard. BY this the burglar means that
he would be willing to plead to one
charge IL the matter ended there.
