he Won the Wealthy Widow and With
Her Mark Hopkins Millions.
From the NeC York EUenino World.
Ten years ago Edward Searles was a
house decorator in this city. To-day no is
worth anywhere from s2O,000,0 600 to s40,-
100000. His present position in the 1nan-
cial world is due TO no effort on
his own part made in business way,
but to the fact that his agreeable presence
and personal worth enabled him to win q
bride with ready-made fortune.
Mr.. Searles comes of good old Puritan
stock. He was born so years ago near the
town Of Methuen, Mass. and his early life
was passed on a farm. After acquiring q
documentary education IN public school he
was spprentced to a carpenter in Methuen.
At the expiration Of the term of his ap-
premiership he went to Boston in search OF
employment, and obtained a position with
q firm of decorators. He developed a
marked talent for decorative art and was
offered lucrative position, which he &C
copied, by Herter Bros, upholsterers, Of
this city.
In 1881 be resigned this position and went
TO the Pacific coast for his health In San
Francisco he met Mrs. Mark Hopkins, the
widow whom he subsequently, married.
Ratoer a pretty story is told In this coa-
nection. Some San Francisco newspapers,
1t is said, had printed an announcement of
the engagement Of Mrs. Mark Hopkins to
Lieut.. Cotton, U. s. A. IL was said lat
this was the direct cause of the sudden and
quiet wedding of Searles aud the widow.
When the decorator saw the name of
Lieut.. Cotton coupled with that of Mrs.
Hopkins he determined to put his fate to the
test. One day when Mrs Hopkins stood il
the railway station surrounded by friends,
the decorator rushed to her. threw his arms
about her neck aud kissed her on the lips.
Mrs. Hopkins did not fail him in this emer-
gency. She turned to her friends and
said:
Let me present you my afflanced hus>
band, Mr.. Searles."
The wedding took place at the Hotel Vic
toris, this city, Nov. 3, 1887.
Mr.. Searles is a handsome, mild-man-
nered man, with blue eyes and hair that is
almost snowy white. He is refined in taste,
gentle in disposition and dresses well, with
out paying too strict attention 70 the die
tates Of fashion.

The MORNING NEWS publishes to-day the
history of Savannah's trade and commerce
for the last twelve months.
In the summary of the business OF tue
past it gives a close approximation oil tne
total value 1t Is a splendid exhibit anu
shows with what rapid strides Savannah Is
forging to the front as financial and COM
mercial center ana shipping port among
southern cities. Indeed there are few cities
In the country Of its size aud popllatIon
that can equal its record OF q year.
The figures show that while the year be-
fore last was the most prospero is in the his
tory of the city the year just closed was
even more prosperous. Its trade was almost
phenomenal
THE YEARS RECORD.
The total value Of the seasons business
reached the enormous total Of Sl5S, $4,000,
an increase over the previous twelve months
OF $40, 100 600.
One of the features of this increase was
that it was not in cotton alone. The increase
In cotton valuation was very small,
although the increase in receipts was 1885,
09l bales The very low price al which the
crop was marketed had much TO do with
~ For 81, pba
been remarkable had the price equaled that
of the previous year. The increase was a
steady one and was in general merchandise
and manufactures, the latter being on
healthy and substantial up grade.
THE NAVAL STORES TRADE.
There was substantial increase in naval
stores. In the number Of packages received,
Savannah has passed the coveted million
point. Prices, however, were no higher
than the previous year, and the increase in
the value is simply represented in that Of
the actual increase in the number OF pack
ages.
The general jobbiug trade shows sub
stantial increase, due TO the accession Of
new territory and new customers along the
new lines OF railroads.
The increase in the exports and home
consumption Of lumber was large, and this
in spite OF the small demand from South
America. Savannah is now the first ship
ping port in the south 50 far as the quality
Of the lumber is concerned, and is only
beaten by one port ii the south in the
amount shipped.
There wEs an increase in the local sales Of
fertilizers, the total Of which approximates
10000 toas. The local and through ship
ments also show a large Increase.
THRER MILLION MORE EXPORTS
The increase In the value OF foreign ex-
ports was over SO 900, 600, and the most
notable increase Of all was in the tonnage
that entered and cleared from this port.
The previous season there was an increase
of nearly 10000 tons. Last years tonnage
exceeds that 179. 900 tons.
The following is a comparative estimate
of the valuation OF Sa annals trade during
the year beginning Sept. l, 1890. aud ending
Aug. 81, 1881, with that of the previous
year:
