Atlanta, Ca, Aug. 14.-For two
hours today, Mrs. S. III. Perry, sat
with the governor pleading with him
for executive clemency for her hus-
band, who is sentenced to suffer
death Wednesday next. He was con-
victed Of the murder of Baly Laurier,
an eccliastical student whom he had
taken to his home and who is now ac-
cused Of having assaulted the wife of
his benefactor, which was the real
cause that led to the tragedy. Perry
hunted his victim for three days, at
last finding him prisoner in charge
of the Dekalb county officers. Rush.
ing up to him Perry shot down the I'M
armed man without moments no.
tice. No cause was given at the time
and the real trouble did not even come
out upon the trial for murder which
followed. Now that the day of Per
RVS execution draws near his wife
comes forward and makes plea to
the governor which If it had been
made to the jury would have secured
her husbands acquittal. The COVER
nor has lately committed himself so
strongly against those who take the
law into their own hands that he is
badly handicapped and is sure to be
criticised whatever step he takes.

New Orleans, Aug. 14.-A novel
plan for the disposal of the city's gar
bage is being considered by the health
committee of the city council. 1t is
believed that much material of COM
mercial value is daily thrown away.
The new plan proposed is system Of
removing and disposing of garbage in
which the fatty matters would be rem
dered into economic products and all
articles of a merchantable nature,
such as paper, rags, bones, scraps of
glass, iron, tin, and leather would be
separated from the worthless matter
and sold. 1t is estimated that the pa
per refuse aggregates in this city
about ten tons in weight per day.
Bones somewhat over two tons per
day. The former is quoted, according
to grade, all the way from So to S25
per ton, when assorted, cleaned and
dried or in paste. Bones, when freed
from grease, from SO to $50 per ton.
At low estimate the city would save
by this system of economical handling
and asserting and scientific treatment
and preparation for the markets, of its
salable garbage alone (at present en-
tirely wasted not less than $4,000 to
$4,000 annually.
