PHOTOGRAPHED A SUSPECT.
Negro Relieved to BE Jim LOwery
Held for Identification.

Believed to be Jim Lowery the noto-
rious mulatto outlaw of North Caro-
lima and murderer of Chief of Police
r. S. Jones of Shelby, a negro claim
ing to be George, Loughorn of Black
vile, S. c., is held a prisoner at the
police station house.
The man was arrested by Bicycle
officer Christie, and if the fact is es-
tablished that he is really Lowery that
officer will receive a reward of $500.
Christie is certain of his man, and his
fellow officers are equally as sure that
Lowery is a prisoner at the station
house under the name of Loughorn. A
full description of the badly wanted
desperate was received yesterday, and
the prisoner answers it in every par
ticular.
Loughorn pawned a watch answer
ing the description of one carried by
the notorious murderer, and was seen
with a revolver similar to one which
Lowery usually carried. When the
additional facts were obtained the me-
gro was photographed by M Ed. Will
son, and his picture will be sent to
the North Carolina authorities to make
his identification complete.
The prisoner denies that he is the
man wanted, and is altogether the
coolest individual that the police have
had in custody in a long while. He
claims that he was never in North
Carolina, and that he has only heard
of the exploits of the famous mulatto
desperate. He was, however, backward
about having his picture taken, and
reminded the officers of the fact that
a great many people have doubles
Loughorn does not seem at all wor-
ried, and claims to be perfectly will
ing to have an officer come here for
the purpose of Identifying him. He is
closely guarded at the station house,
and some of the officers are of the opin-
ion that his manner has been affected
for the purpose of throwing the turn
key off his guard The real Lowery
is desperate negro. and if under ar
rest would use any means in an eff
fort to make his escape.

IN THE PEN FOR LIFE
JAMES DUPREE WILL ExPIATE
THE MURDER OF HIS WIFE.
-
JURY SAVED HIM FROM DEATH.
RECOMMENDED HIM TO THE
MERCY OF THE COURT.

For Eighteen Hours the Jury stood
Eleven to One-Was Recharged on
the Question of MansIaughter.
Dupree Heard His Sentence With
Apparent ReIief-NO Application
for a New Trial viii BE Made.
James Dupree, tried and found guilty
of the murder of his wife, Sadie Du-
pree, will spend the remainder of his
life at hard labor in the penitentiary
of the state. The jury accompanied
its verdict of guilty with a recommen-
dation to mercy, and by this recon-
mendation saved the wife murderer's
neck.
1t was shortly before 10 o'clock yes
terday morning that the jury agreed,
after having had the case under con-
sideration for eighteen or twenty
hours.
The jurors had stood eleven to one
almost from the time they left the
court room to begin the consideration
on their verdict; at one time they had
been brought back into the court room
to be recharged on the subject of vol
untary manslaughter.
The jury was made as comfortable
as circumstances permitted during the
night, and given a good breakfast yes
terday morning. Possibly the break
fast brought the recalcitrant juryman
good humor. and an accommodating
spirit, or possibly he was distressed
at the prospect of another day and
possibly another night in the jury
room, for he found it possible to agree
with the others upon their verdict.
Stewart heard it read with apparent
relief. His counsel announced them
selves abundantly satisfied, and no ap-
plication will be made for a new trial.
AS a matter of fact the sentence is
not more surely for life than would
have been the one imposed upon a con-
viction of the crime of voluntary man
slaughter. Dupree is in the last stages
of a loathsome disease and evidently is
not long for this world.

National Bank Is Negotiating for It's
Purchase.
The National Bank of Savannah is
negotiating for the purchase of the
Gilmer property, at the northwest cor
ner of Bull and State streets. Those
concerned in the negotiations will not
discuss them at all, so it is not known
what price is asked or offered. The
property is a valuable one, however,
because of it's location. The improve
mcnts are not worth nearly so much
as the land, which is desired by the
bank in order that it may erect a
building.
1t is the wish of the directors of the
National Bank to secure a location
further south than that of any bank
now established in the city. The
trend of business is southwark, and
the bank, in erecting it's home, wants
to have 1t where it will be in the heart
of the business section for years to
come.

RUSHING ITS WORK.
Montgomery Line VIII Be Ready by
May 10, II Is Expected.

montgomery Line Will be READY by
May 10, II Is Expected.
Already a mile and a half of poles
and a half mile of track have been
added to the Savannah Electric Com
pany's line from Sand Fly to Mont
gomery, and unless something unex-
pected turns up the line will be in OPP
Grafton, with electricity as the motive
power. by May 10.
The first reel of wire, about a mile,
will be strung to-day and unless the
weather conditions change the cleo
trio line will be in operation as far as
Bethesda by April %, when the ami
Versary celebration will take place. A
large force of men is engaged on the
work of equipping the old mule line
with electricity. So anxious are the
street railway officials to have the
line in operation as far as Bethesda
for the anniversary celebration that
the force will be kept at work to-day
and next Sunday as well.
General Manager G. o. Maggie is de-
voting much time and attention to the
work, and is pushing the improvement.
A new station will be built at Mont
gomery, and while no other improve
ments are contemplated there this
summer, Montgomery will be one of
the suburban attractions during the
coming sultry days. 1t is expected that
it will prove popular one when the
electric line is in operation.
The Thunderbolt Casino is still a
drawing card, and while as yet no at
fractions have been arranged for
week days, the Sunday concerts are
proving popular. Mr.. Maggie has found
that the concert given last Sunday by
the First Regiment Band was popular
with those who visited the resort, and
1t Will be in service again this after
noon. While the crowd was no larger
upon the first appearance of the band
the people seemed to enjoy the music
more than they did the orchestra, and
the band concerts may be continued.
