Negro Prisoner Identifies Him as Man from Whom He
 Got the Watches
WHITE MAN ASSERTS HE
 NEVER SAW PERRY BEFORE
Friends of Mason Put No Faith What ever In the Statement of Perry That the Suspected Man
 Gave Him JeweIry.

Boston, Mass, November 9.-L. O. Perry, the negro who pawned the watches taken from the murdered wom- en, Miss Clara A. Morton and Miss Agnes McPhee. declared today that Alan G. Mason Is the man from whom he re- ceived these articles. Perry was taken to the jail in East Cambridge where Ma son, under arrset on the charge of kill ing Miss Morton, is confined pending a hearing in the Cambridge court tomor- row. In one of the jail corridors Perry who had given him the two watches. Mason, by neither look nor word, be- trayed any knowledge of having seen Perry before. Then questioned by Sher- iffs Fairbairn, Mason merely said: q do not know this man, I never saw him be- fore"
 During the day Chief Ryan and Officer Argy of Belmont talked with Perry, and later State Officers New, Dunham Dex- ter and others took Perry to the jail. The callers were shown Into the room where Mason and six othersewere in line. Perry walked straight up to Mason, who was second in position. and pointing his finger at him, said: This is the man who gave me the watches to pawn"
 He was about to leave the room when Sheriff Fairbairn asked him if he would not like to talk with Mason in order that he might make himself sure that Mason was the man. Perry replied there was no need of that, as he knew who the man was and had known him for long time.
 On being returned to his cell in the police station Perry was confronted by three newsboys and they idetified him as another newsboy.
 Another visitor at the police station was Mason's attorney. He was accom- panied by woman. This woman did not see Perry but 1t was understood that she had been produced by the defense in the hope of showing that Perry himself or some other negro was the real Jack the Slugger." She Is one of the women who were followed by a negro in Cam bridge several weeks ago. Mir. Ware places no faith in the statement of Per ", that it was Mason that gave the boy the watches.
 He believes that Perry had to account for his possession of the watches, and the most reasonable way was to say that they were given him by man already under arrest, and by a man whom he had seen on the streets of Cambridge and could easily identify.
 The fact that the negro accused Mason of giving him the watches did not give the police any false confidence that the mystery of the series of brutal crimes had been solved.
 By arrangements made tonight Perry will be arraigned tomorrow at Cambridge on the charge of being accessory after the fact. The police say that Perry has been confined at the Lyman School for Boys, having been convicted for assault and robbery upon a young woman in this city.
 Also, 1t has come to light that on Sum lay, July 27, Perry, who was then em- ployed as the driver of a mail wagon from Cambridge to Boston, was missing from his work. It was upon this date that an assault upon Miss Ellen Murphy occurred.

burg The company remedied the condi- tons and the contracts were not revoked.
 Dr. Bragg said yesterday that the life and health of convicts could best be con- served by the state controlling the con- victs, providing hospitals and medicines for them and exercising an immediate supervision over them.
 This change in the method of working convicts is the most important step of the administration of Governor Jelks, changing, as it does, a custom that has been observed in Alabama a great many years.
 Under Consideration Long Time.
 Governor Jelks said the matter of plac- ing convicts under the immediate super vision of the state instead of leasing them to coal mines, had been under con- sideration some time and that he had ap- proved the action of the board of convict inspectors in notifying the mining com panies that the convicts would not be leased after January 1.
 The governor said a proposition would be submitted to the mining companies for the state to operate their mines with con- victs, and to deliver them coal at a cer- tain figure.
 And suppose the operators reject this proposition?" he was asked.
 We will take care of the convicts out side of the mines" the governor replied promptly. we have determined positive ly that state convicts shall no longer be subjected to conditions existing in the mines"
 Asked if the new order would affect convicts leased to farmers and to turpen- tine and lumber plants, the governor said he did not think 1t would; that the con- ditions at these convict camps, so far as he was advised, were satisfactory.
 The conference between the mine oper- ators and board of convict inspectors, to be held next Thursday, will be loked for ward to with interest
