HILL TO BE ARREsrEp.
The Festive Harry Talked Too Much
andH Has Stirred Up Mr.. Porter Again,

The Festive Harry Talked Too Much
and Has Stirred Up Mr.. Porter Again.
Atlanta. Ga. July ST the police can
find him. the festive Harry Hin will be
a prisoner again before the dawn OF
another day. II he is not already 10 the
clutches Of the law. Hnl's tongue has
made him notorious. When he was pre-
pairing 10 get out Of Fulton county Jail on
bond last week 10 was remarked 10y
friend that he would only talk himself
back i'm again, and this seems
to be the truth Of the situation.
Hill left for Augusta within an hour
after he was liberated from the Fulton
county Jail He did not want to stay
around Atlanta even a little, and il was
understood that his tongue had made him
trouble here. He had no sooner reached
Augusta than he told a reporter there in
an interview that his case had come to
an end. He never expected TO be tried,
he said, and was, in fact, going TO Eu-
rope for a little rest. The impression
Hill made was that the parties We're
afraid to bring him to trial for fear that
ne would tell damaging tales.
If appearances go for anything Hill mis-
understood the situation. for j. II. Por-
ter, husband Of the lady whose name Hill
was indicted for forging, is now after him
in full chase with six more warrants.
Mr. Porter swOre out these warrants yes
terday afternoon, and at once called on
the chief of police to have Hill
arrested The matter was kept "A secret
by the chief, however, last night
for fear Hill would hear of
the new warrants through the papers
and evade arrest Mr. Porter instructed
the chief to spare no expense, but TO get
Hill in custody as quietly as possible.
Acting on this Chief Connally sent tele-
grams all over the country last night, but
as yet Hill has not been apprehended.
He was in Augusta until yesterday, when
he disappeared as if by a premOnitiOn of
coming danger. Mr.. Porter is believed
to have taken his present course in pur-
suing Hill with new warrants
because of his talk. He was always a
fool with his tongue, and nobody who
knows him is surprised that 1t has gotten
him into new trouble His talk has tended
to arouse the Porter family, and the
enmity of the court officials upon whom
he reflected, and if he ever does come be
fore the bar of justice in Fulton county he
will meet with vigorous handling.
DISAPPEARS FROM AUGUSTA.
Augusta, Ga, July S.-Harry Hill has
suddenly disappeared from Augusta and
the orders to the police here to arrest
him on the finding of new cases in At
lanta came too late. or else he heard
of them through friendly sources too soon
for the police.
Gus Beall, while riding on an electric
car last night recognized Hill in a hack
near the Augusta and Knoxville Railway
as he passed under an electric light, but
has no idea where he went The hack
men have been closely questioned but are
all very ignorant of course. Harry evil
IDENTIFY gave directions and made it to
theirinterest to carry them out.

c. H. Copeland and Mss FutTtll Meet
Al Charlotte.

They Go On to Danville. Va, and Are
Made Man and Wife at That Point
The Runaways Now En- Route to
The Bedside of Copeland's Sick
Mother at Boston.
Atlanta, Ga, July S.-Niiss liberia
Futrell, who ran away from her home in
this city on Thursday, driving through
the country to COuyers in carriage TO
meet her lover. a Boston newspaper man
named c. II. Copeland, and whose fight
and subsequent adventures were sensa-
tionally romantic was married
to Copeland IN Danyille, Va,
this morning at $50 O'Clock.
A telegram making this announce
ment was received by LawyerJ. G. Rob
inson, who was largely instrumental in
bringing the young pair together, soon
after the ceremony was performed As
stated in these dispatches yesterday,
Copeland failed to keep the engagement
at Conyers yesterday morning, telegraph
ing lawyer Robinson and William Tuggle,
who accompanied the young lady on her
fight to her lover, to send her on to Char
lotte, where he would meet her Cope
lands mother had been taken suddenly
Ill and a telegram from home was what
prevented the marriage at Conyers.
Lawyer Robinson was angered at first by
this disappointment and would have
brought Miss Futrell back to her home in
Atlanta, believing that Copeland had de
serted her, but her confidence in her
lover remained firm, and finally, after
spending the night at the house of
friends relatives of Robinson-the party
drove across the country to Norcross,
where the young lady took the train for
Charlotte, where she met Copeland last
night. During part of the time while
running about over the country,
Miss Futrell passed as Lawyer RObinson's
sister, and at other times as Miss Massie
Fetters. From Charlotte Copeland and
Miss Futrell started for Boston, the
young mans home. but stopped at Dan
vile to be married. The family of the
young lady is very indignant at Attorney
RobinsOn's part in the affair. This morn
ing the mother called on the lawyer at
his Office and gave him roasting for
helping TO steal away her daughter
Robinson says he became interested in
the case on account of having been Cope
lands attorney when he was first arrest
ed, at the instance of the Futrells, TO
prevent the marriage.
