David Logan, the negro who on
Thursday morning shot and killed Dick
Hawkins, colored. III Candy Bill Nc
Ifenzie's dive at SO Commercial street,
surrendered himself to the police at
SIS O'Clock last evening.
Logan had communicated with his
attorney, Sam King, and the latter ad
vised the man to give himself up. Atty.
King declared that Logan had q good
defense, and that it would be shown
that lie shot Hawkins in self-defense.
1T was case of kill or be killed"
said counsel, "and the fact will be
shown when the hearing is held"
HIDING IN LODGlNGHOUSE
Since the shooting Logan has been
in hiding in the Plumas clearinghouse,
5i9 west Second South street. Thurs
day Logan sent q note to Henry Bo-
gan, colored friend, asking him to
engage counsel for him and Atty. sam
King was employed. Some time yes
terday Mr.. King had consultation
with the alleged murderer and 1t was
decided that Logan give himself up.
About o'clock, last night Detective
George Sheets WAS notified and met Mr..
King, Logan and Began. Together they
walked to police headquarters where
Logan was taken into custody, booked,
for murder and locked up without bail.
Acting doubtless upon the advice of his
attorney, Logan refused absolutely to
talk about the case and would not make
any statement OF answer questions
asked him by Chief Pitt, Lieut. Shan
non or Detective Sheets.
Atty. King stated that Logan had
not made any attempt to leave the city
and that he had been in town all the
time since the fatal shooting. The
surrender of Logan did not create any,
stir whatever about police headquarters
and but few persons about the station
knew that Logan had given himself
up. He appeared TO be perfectly cool
and did not seem to be worried in the
least over his arrest.
