CONVICT FLED TO
PROVE INNOCENCE


NEW YORK An escaped cuuvclN
futile coasl-to-Coast search lor the man
whose testimony he hoped would clear
his name from the charge OF murder
ended here when James Macdonald
known also as George Gillette, walked
into police headquarters and surren
drrcd himself Macdonald told the
police that he had lett the federal priS
ON at lorton, Va, several months ago
and had spent $500 travelling from san
Francisco 20 New York in his VAIN
quest He was out OF funds and dis
touragcd. he declared and wanted to
give himself up before he was
caught
Macdonald is na,tily dressed. clean
looking man, and but for the haggard
line Of worry on his face he said he
had lost forty pound, due to anxiety
,inA his esCapc-hc would never be
taken ior anything but a well-to-do
businc,, man without care m the
world The story hc told involved a
carabct party in Washington in 1910, the
| fatal shooting ol one OF the party, a
| woman, his own arrest and conviction
for the murder and his subsequent Ell
iorS to find one oi the witnesses who
he asserted, could exoncratc bin.
Stays After Shooting
Il seems that nearly cigh, years ago
Macdonald who is an expert account
ant. found himself one evening IN the
capital 1t was proposed thA he JON
party Of several men ard women who
were going to make night OF 1t,
and the Young man accepted While at
one Of the cafes, according 10 his story
after everybody had been drinking
pretty freely, an argument arose be
tween two OF the men. The next thng
Macdonald remembers is hearing the
crack OF a pistol and seeing one OF
the women fall aCros, the table shot
through the body The shooting So
bcrcd Macdonald and he stayed with
the DYING woman while the Others
fled
Macdonald was arrested hy the police
and charged with the shooting 1t he
came a murder charge when the woman
died in the hospital While IN jail
awaiting trial, Macdonald maintained
such complete silence that he gained
the name OF the Man OF Mystery.
However, his identity was Vscoycrcc
when he was recognized m court by an
old friend Of the family and hl'
brother, who is in the Jcwclry business
