PREPARATION BY MARRIAGE.
A WrODg Righted and Ripley Lawyers
Deprived of a Fat Plum.

RILEY, o., Nov. ga scandal that
has been the leading topic of conversation
in coored society circles of Decatur, this
county, for some weeks, eliminated in this
city to-day in rather novel manner,
Laura Lewis, a rather rrepossessing young
colored damsel liyingnear Decatur, brought
suit sgainst Alexander Green for seduction
AZ bastardy on two separate charges. The
case was called before Esquire l.. II. Will
isns to-day and at the appointed hour
Green stepped into the office, tiourishing
marriage license fresh from the office OF the
Probate Judge, and siguitied his willing
ness TO compromise the matter by making
tn danSel Mrs. Green. The ceremony was
performed by Esquire Williams in his
usual happy manner, and, thus, what was
likely to prove bonanza for the lawyers
ended happily.

WNsmlNGToN, November 2a--Represen-
tative Keiicr has been asked, both by
specials and by the Associated Press, for
lis letter to Mr. Phelps. Thus far he has
declined to furnish il for All earlier date
than Saturday. This is another way Of
saying that he does not care to place il be
fore the public before the meeting OF the
Republican caucus. 1t has been ascer.
tain,d q that TIE letter OF Mr. Phelps TO
General Keller was not marked contiden
tia. and that there is no reason why he
should withhold il. rs TO his own
letter, it is long and is very
full defense OF all the methods
can press. In addition, he makes sharp
coulter attack Oh the newspapers, which,
il repurts here are correct, is about in the
style cf the one with which he closed his
csrc, as Speaker. The fact that he insists
upon holding his letter from members and
the press till an hour when il could not AZ
fec, caucus action is affecting members un-
fayorably. as they say they do not care To
vote for General keifer upon even proba-
bili'y that they may be cal led upon 10 re.
