Particulars of the Combat in Which Cen
eral Adams was Killed.
NEW ORLEANS, La, May 2.-F. L. Mar
tin, publisher of the New Missis.ippiap,
sends the Plcayune the following account
Of the tragedy at jackson yesterday :
Martin WAS returning from his dinner at
about 2 O'Clock, when he WAS met
by General Adams and friend
who were proceeding towards Martins
home. An eyewitness, Walter Johnson,
who was standing near, states that Ad-
ans stopped Martin and engaged him in
conversation shout q minute, when Ad-
ans drew his pistol and fired, knocking
Martins hat of. Adams second shot
brought Martin to his knees. The latter
experienced considerable difficulty in
drawing his pistol, but finally succeeded,
and he fred rapidly. The third shot by
Adams caused Martin to fall fat on his
back. After few seconds, however, he
partially rose and, etea lying himself on
his elbow, shot Adams directly through the
heart, killing him instantly. Martin
lived few minutes only. Owing to the
fact that Martin is believed to have re-
ceived four shots while only three cham
bers of Adams pistol were empty, some
suspicion attaches to Ned Parrish, Adams
friend, and an Investigation will be held.
Mr.. Martin, though only twenty-five years
of age, stood ct the head OF Mississippi
journalism. General Adams WAS between
sixty five and seventy years OF age and
was one of Mississippi's most distin-
guisbsd men.

quent decline in prices.
Butter has fallen through, dropping
from 25c to 174c, the market being almost
over-supplied with the article.
Eggs are only worth 1lic, a decline

Spring frying chickens are now in fair
supply on the market, and are worth
