Has Mr. Lowe Two Wives? Charges That A Cortland Tailor Is Guilty of Bigamy. (Correspondence of The Telegram) Cortland, New York; October 10, 1903. Ira Lowe, a tailor who is employed in one of the leading tailor shops of this city, is in a peck of trouble because he is accused of having one wife too many. Lowe came to this city from New York several years ago and has been living with a woman he said was his wife since he has been here. Yesterday a woman who claims to be wife No. 1 came here from New York with a warrant for his arrest, charging him with bigamy. The woman who appeared on the scene yesterday alleges that she and Lowe were married in New York city in 1894. This statement, she says, is supported by a record of the alleged marriage which she says she has in her possession. She states further that they lived together for some time and then Lowe suddenly disappeared. Did Lowe Marry Twice? After leaving her, Lowe entered into a marriage, it is alleged, with a woman whom she firmly believes to be Miss Anna Lindauer, also of New York. The Lindauer woman and Lowe have lived together ever since as husband and wife, Mrs. Adelaide Lowe, who said she is wife No. 1 asserts. The real Mrs. Lowe's first intimation of her husband's whereabouts, or that he was again married, was a notice of the birth of a child to Mr. and Mrs. Ira Lowe of Cortland, which she says she saw in a newspaper. The child was born September 9, 1903. She began at once to investigate and she says she found that her long lost "hubby" was in Cortland and living with a woman supposed to be his wife. Lowe Admitted to Bail. Lowe was arrested soon after the woman's arrival in this city yesterday and taken before City Judge Dougherty. The case was adjourned until 10 o'clock today and Lowe was admitted to $600 bail.
