each $250,000 in the firm Of Harris,
Gates & Co.. John Dupee retires. 1t
is expected that Charles G.. Gates,
who has managed the New York end
of the firm since the house has been
in existence, will make up a new CON
Germ, and it is likely that John W.
Gates and John Lambert will be spe-
cial factors in the new partnership
Orson Wells. who has been the man
ager Of the Rookery office Of the
house, will be in the new firm.
The dissolution is the result of the
inclination of some of the partners to

others since it was formed. It's com

 Marion, Sept. 1.-(Special.)-John Cater, coIored, who was to have hang ed September 9, has been granted short reprieve. The execution has been stayed pending a hearing on motion before the Supreme Court. Gates was convicted of the murder of negro at Hardie's store near Uniontown in an effort to kill John Hardie, son of Representative R. A. Hardie. The case was tried at the spring term of court and appealed to the Supreme Court and the judgment of the lower court sus- tained.
 Dan Conwell has been convicted of the killing of MT. Oscar Gentry and sentenced to one year hard labor and ten months to pay the cost. The Jury. returned verdict of manslaughter. Tn 1901 at Ash fry at Paterson's Mill in the eastern portion of the county Con- we'll and Gentry became involved in a difficulty resulting inConwelrs shooting and killing Gentry. The plea was self defence. An preliminary trial Conweil was remanded to jail without bond. Two mistrials resulted. in one instance two jurymen were for acquital and ten for conviction for moruder Tn the second one was for acquitta1 and eleven TOT conv1ction or murder. Tn the final verdict four were for acquittal and eight for conviction of murder, when a compromise verdict was reached.
 The verdict has called for much ad- verse criticism and the opinion is that more trouble will result in the neigh borhood where the killing occurred Much i'll feeling exists and threats made by both sides. Cornwall was taken to the county farm Sunday.

TOM WATSON SPEAKS.
Populist Presidential Candidate Ads
 dresses Audience in Atlanta.

Atlanta. Sept. 1.-Thomas E. Watt son. candidate of the Peoples Party for president, addressed an immense audience in the hall of the House of Representatives of the Georgia Legis- lature tonight.
 The address was delivered at the closing session of the State convention of the Georgia populists which met this afternoon and chose electors and alternates and endorsed the nomina- tion of Mir. Watson for the presiden- cy.
 The convention was called to order by State Chairman J. J. Holloway and Judge J. K. Hines of Atlanta, was made permanent chairman In his opening address Judge Hines spoke strongly against fusion with the Dem- icratic party. He. said that Demo- crats had appealed to the Peoples par ty for aid in the 1ast but that the two parties no longer travelled the same paths. He said:
 There is a solid south and sol i'd north, kept solid by sectional- ism. We are the first party that ever crossed in safety the bounds of sec tionalism. We are the first party tc cross the Mason and Dixon's line for a presidential candidate. We are are first party that ever had the courage to come south for either head or tail to the national ticket"

The big audience, after the suspense of the drawing was over. settled down and spent very pleasing evening in watching the excellent moving pie lures shown by the Edison Exhibition Company. They were views Tn the Life of an American Fireman" Japan ese and Russian war views and many others that caught the fancy of the crowd. They were so good that many in the audience forgot their disappoint- ment over the loss of the automobile
 The moving pictures will be seen again at the Casino tonight, although there will be no attendant excitement of a drawing for an automobile.

F. J. DREHER WINS AUTO
LUCKIEsT MAN IN MONTGOMERY
 WAS CHEERED.
Held Winning Ticket Drawn at Casino Theatre for Prize OHered by Merchants as a Trade
 Brin0er.

F.J. Dreher, of 100 Holcombe Street Is the luckiest man in Montgomery. He won the red automobile at the Pickett Springs Casino last night, the automo- bile which was given away by the mer- chants of Montgomery as trade in- ducement.
 The thousands of Montgomeria who have been dreaming of riding in d red skidoo wagon, sitting haughtily by tho bedside of an imported chaffeur, pro- nounced hover,"-scatering the com mon people, may now wake up. That is, all except MT. Dreher who, as a favorite of fortune, has the right to scoot around the streets of Montgomery and see just where the fun comes in while automobiling. As for the others well. the street cars run on fifteen minute schedule and they stop on the far side of the street. The chaffeurs of this form of popular automobile will continue to be imported from Cren- shaw, Covington and Dale Counties.
 The six or seven thousand other peo- pie who held automobile tickets and dreamed dreams may stand on the side walk and watch Mir. Dreher pass or dodge quickly out of the way at the toot, toot of his automobile horn.
 The atmosphere at the Casino Thea tre last night was thick with disap- pointment Just before the ticket was drawn one young lady declared: T forgot my smelling salts and I'll never in the world be able to go on the stage when my name is called out and face this crowd"
 But it was all right. She never needed her smelling salts.
 The disappointment in the main was taken good naturedly. A sweet young thing in lavender who had twenty five tickets said, as she passed out the door, q am glad I didn't get it. I couldn't own an automobile because never could bear the smell of gasoline"
 MT. Dreher was in the audience and felt the thrill of delight that followed the announcement that he was the lucky man and belonged to the privi- lered class of wind burners. He was called to the stage. Wearing a broad and expansive smile he answer the call The unsuccessful aspirants cheered him again and again and he bowed again and again.
 The automobile was given away by thirty merchants of Montgomery. With each 50 cents purchase of their goods each of the merchant gave an auto mobile ticket There was an enorm- ous number of tickets a pile that very nearly filled great sugar hogshead. Just how many tickets there was in the great pile will never be known be- cause no account was kept of the issue of the tickets.
 The Casino Theatre at Pickett Springs last night was unable to hold the enormous crowd that gathered for the drawing and incidentally to see the exhibition of moving pictures which is the attraction of the week at Pickett Springs. Every seat was taken and all standing room was occupied. In

fact scores of people were unable to

fact scoFes of people were unable to get within the doors.
 When the curtain rose 1t disclosed to the audience a representative of each of the thirty business houses of the city which were interested in the drawing all of them more or less at ease. The detaails of the drawing were in charge of q special committee of which James w. Smith was chair man. The other members of the com mitee were E. o. Clapp, I. Levystein, J. A. Murray, Berto Johnson. T. W. Smith and T. B. Roadway.
 Chairman Smith wore an engaging smile and large diamond. His as- sistants on the committee were armed with rakes and pitchforks. Except for their modern dress they looked like the male chorus in an opera harvesting scene. Some of the audience expected them to break into a marching song with their agricultural implements on their shoulders.
 Master of Ceremonies Smith raised his hand impressively and waved the audience into silence.
 This great pile which you see be- fore you," said MT. Smith, lis made up Of automobile tickets. If anybody else has any other automobile tickets let liHi COfuS ana uepOS1L them Tn the pile. The pile of tickets will then be stirred up and placed in this hogs head. The hogshead will be nailed up and rolled around the stage. The head of the hogshead will be knocked in and then I will ask a little girl to come forward and draw the winning ticket out of the hogshead."
 Three cheers for the little girl" said red headed boy on the right of the house.
 Mir. Smith looked severely at the part of the house from which the in- terruption came and then commanded his assistants with the rakes and the pitchforks to fall to. It had been a long time since some members of the committee had handled rakes and pitchforks. and they did their work a little awkwaddiy. Finally all the tickets were packed fin the hogshead, the head was nailed up and the hogs head was rolled about the stage. The head was then knocked open.
 Now will some little young lady 8 or g years of age come forward and assist us in the drawing?" said Mir Smith.
 Did you say a young lady se years of age?' asked a pert young man in the sixth row.
 OlQ not, TeplleQ MT. Smith with firmness and dignity.
 Little Miss Louise Sadler. a cute lit- tie girl in pink and long curls with noticeable f-possession, went for ward and helped out the committee. She Is the daughter of Dr. and Mrs J. N. Sadler
 Miss Sadler was blindfolded and placed inside the hogshead on top of the big pile of tickets. She reached down and picked up one ticket.
 "The winner of the automobile Is F. J. Dreher, 100 Holcombe Street" said MT. Smith. The ticket which wins the automobile was given to Mir Dreh- CT by J. A. Murray &. Company, the plumbers" added Mir Smith.
 A cheer went up for MT Dreher's good luck. He left his seat fin the au- dlence and walked, to the stage, one smile succeeding another.
 The committee shook hands with Mir. Dreher, and told him that the a1tomo- bile was his whenever he felt like eaii- ing for 1t.

been asked. If we were asked, MT. Scott and myself would be pretty sure to agree upon some good Republican for the place. l have no idea at present who the man will be.
 The responsibility of appointments In the marshafs office rests upon the shoulders of the marshal and not upon the referees, and he is free to act, as he has always been, in appointing whomsoever he desires. If there had ever been any doubt as to his liberty to make appointments. the matter has been thoroughly cleared up by the Presidents circular letter to marshals and district attorneys"
 MT. Thompson says that MT. B. W. Walker. formerly United States Mar. shal and Republican nominee for Con gress in the Fifth District. will open his campaign with a barbecue at Tus- kegee on the 17th of September, .,t which Congressman Littlefield of Maine will be present and deliver au address. MT. Walker has challenged Hon. J. Tom Hef1in to a series of joint debates during the campaign.
