Porter Springs.

Atlanta, Sept. S-General James
LOngstreet, major general of the Con-
federate army, United States minister
to Turkey, and prospective commits
sioner of railroads to succeed General
Wade Hampton, was married at the
executive mansion IN this city at 3 80
this afternoon to Miss Ellen Dortch,
assistant librarian of the state of
Georgia.
Governor and Mrs. Atkinson issued
limited number of invitations to
state officials and intimate friends of
the bride and groom. These formed a
distinguished party which filled the
blueroom of the mansion, where the
ceremony was performed. Rev. Father
Schadewell of the Church of the I'M
maoulate Conception officiated.
Judge B, CASTOR, mayor of Gaines
VILE, General Longstreet's home, was
the best man. The bride entered on
the arm of Governor Atkinson, who
gave her away in the absence of her
brother, who is in Texas.
Mr.. and Mrs. Longstreet will spend
two weeks at Porter Springs, Ca,
after which they will return to At
lanta, where Mrs. Longstreet will re.
sumo her duties at the state library.
1t is understood she will not retire
from the race for the librarianship
which she entered several months ago
A striking coincidence was supplied
in the fact that today is the anniver.
sary of the battle OF Molina del Ray in
the Mexican war, where General Long.

at Decatur today, The execution
took place on the gallows in the yard
of the DeKalb county Jail. The
doomed man was pale, but cool and
collected to the last. On the scafiold
he declared his innocence of murder
and reiterated his statement that he
killed Lanier to protect the sanctity
of his home. The drop fell at IL 43
a. m.
His neck was broken and he was
pronounced dead IA minutes later.
Perry offered up short prayer on the
gallows, praying for his wife and chill
dren and for himself. The condemned
man stood quietly, showing little evil
dence of emotion while the black cap
was adjusted, mutteriDg: 81 die in
Defense" These were his last words.

The Certain Custom House Applicant Re-
gardsd As Jester.

The notice in Sundays TIMES that
one of the applicants for the Bruins
wick collectorship of customs was so
certain of appointment as to engage a
building for the location of the custom
house stirred mp the local applicants
considerably.
II don't know who the gentleman is
who is so certain" said one of the can
dldateS to TIMES man, "but, from the
way he talks, | guess 1 had better get
out of the race. 1 always thought 1
had a pretty good chance until this
thing was published, but now l sup
pose I'm done for"
The general impression is that the
candidate who is $50 certain" is merely
indulging in joke at the expense of
his opponents. The appointments can
not be expected before the first of next
year. The only applicants who are
regarded as probable appointees are
Messrs. H. L. Dunn, R. r. Hopkins
and F. McC. Brown.
Inquiry develops the fact that an
option has been given for the rental
of the Plant System general office
building, but the name of the party
who has the option could not be
learned. This is the building which
the $50 certain" applicant claims he
has leased for the custom house.

Paine, Murphy Il Co.'s Cotton Letter.

Savannah, Sept. S.-The market
continues dull and featureless with
the feeling rather nervous. The most
unfavorable factor in the situation at
the present time is the continued
slack speculative demand which leaves
the market in a more vulnerable posi-
tion and invites actacks from the
bearish element. Cotton has declined
to a poirt, however. which, when COM
pared with the market value of other
speculative commodities, makes 1t ap-
D aar relatively cheap.

The Story of the Shooting, Which Resulted
In the Loss of Two Lives.
The case of Fl. s. Perry, who was
hung at Decatur yesterday, was one
of the most remarkable in the crImi-
nal records of the state.
Perry shot and mortally wounded
Belly Lanier IN the courthouse at De-
catur on Monday, March s, and after
lingering for few days Lanier died
from the effects of the wound. Both
men were under arrest when the
shooting occurred, having been taken
into custody at InglesIde, to which
place Perry had followed Lanler for
the avowed purpose of avenging an
insult to his wife.
Though both were searched Perry
succeeded In concealing a pistol, and
no sooner had the party entered the
courthouse at Decatur than he fired
upon Lanier. Lanier was shot in the
back, without the least warning from
his slayer.
After the shooting Perry SAID his
only regret was the fear that Lanier
might live, and stated that the latter
had outraged Mrs. Perry.
Lsnier strenuously denied that be
had committed the assault, and before
his death made a statement in which
he said Perry was angry because he,
Lanier, had told Mrs. Perry of Perry's
alleged relations with other women.
Perry was placed on trial for his life
at special term of the DeKalb su-
perior court at Decatur on Tuesday,
April 9th, with Judge John s. Can
dler presiding. He was promptly
convicted and sentenced to be hung.
The attorneys carried the case to
the supreme court, which affirmed the
judgment. Governor Atkinson was
asked to interfere. The wife of the
condemned waited until the last mo-
ment, and appeared before the gov
ernor, with her little children. She
made the statement that Lanier
had wronged her. The Governor gave
the case long and earnest considera-
tion, but finally declined to interfere
