Byrd 1 ouching His Divorce From His Wife, HER CHARACTER IS SPOTLESS anil He Say* “She XVVt^Alwaya Be |o Me » Pure and Memory, Clouded Only by MUfortane” —A Very Tonolilng Cent. Atlanta, July 23.—(Speda-1.)—An other chapter was added to the Byrd divorce case today. Last week the an nouncement by a dispatch from New York that Charles P. Byrd, who is a leading publisher land printer, fa-ad been granted a divorce from his wife, Pearl Bryan Byrd, created a sensation, un faithfulness wus the ground given for the divorce, and 11. II. Rockwell, n former business associate of Mr. Byrd’s, was mentioned as the co-re spondent. Mrs. Byrd Is the daughter of Mrs. Mary E. Bryan, 'the well known South ern authoress. A year or »o tago tfhe went to New York for medical treat ment. Suspicion faad never assailed her fair nmme, and When she went away sho left behind her an unsullied repu tation as a wife and mother. When (the report of the divorce was received Jt was a shock not only to the friends of the family, but to society, in the beat circles of which Mra. Byrd %uis a favorite. Since *the publication of -the divorce Mr. Byrd faus eathl nothing of the cir cumstances./tout allowed the published reports to go as they were until today, when the gave the fioTIowilng statement of the sad facts 1n tfae case to the pub lic: "Atlanta, Oa., ■July 21, 1894.—I wish to say a word In regard to the divorce which, us has been published, I have obtained from my wffe, Perl Bryan Byrd. «t Is a most peculiar case. 1 believe my wife to be a perfectly pure and -Innocent woman. Owing to the diseased state of her mind she had be- oome possessed with 'the Idea that she could no longer •Ifve with mo. She u*.d. everything In her powdr to procure a divorce. SJbout a. year ago ahe enter* ' a suit against me, which she coulu not prosecute because she had no grounds. As her physician hud In formed me of her mortal' condition, I bore with her, 'hoping she would be cured. She ‘twice attempted to take her life last summer, owing 'to her morbid oondbtion. She continued to insist upon the divorce, and* I begged 'her to wait three years and allow me to cot it on the ground of desertion, tout this her ‘poor nest'.ess mind forbade. She threat ened to do something desperate—to tAke her llfe-^f I did not oome at once and take the divorce. At times gho recognized her unsound mental state. She went willingly to the asylum for the deranged at AmRyville, where she remained for six months. Hoping she was better, I brought her home last November, tout soon found ghe was not cured, and she went back to the care of Dr. *Witoey, though not to the asy lum, wlhlch sh.e objected to. He visited her at her bearding house, 234 West Fourteenth ctrcot. 'She was more than ever bent on obtaining a divorce and frequently "wrote Threatening to take tier life and to publish everything in jurious She oouukl think of if It was not procured. I d-o -not 'believe for a mo ment that any intima'te relations ever existed between hert 'and Rockwell. She fau* not ffeen tolm for over a year and Was not held any communication with him. She did not elope with him. I .put her on -the train myself, and Rockwell was in Atlanta during the whole of her stay *n Now York. He and I were bath -boarding at. the Kim ball house and eatiing at -the same table daily. .. .... "I have given her the divorce with the hope of satisfying her mind and preventing her doing anything des perate. I thought I could manage to do -this without any publicity, and thus save the humiliation which all connect ed with the unfortunate affair are now suffering. After it was obtained she sterned calmer. She toad> been leading the life of a recluse, bu-t I got go out with me every evening while I remained In New -York. She was, as she has always been, fr-end.y nnd kind, seeming to look on me hbr best friend. She appeared not tore- :illze In the least the <Hi«raco attached to the divorce, and -waa to aweeLand unconscious that I did rtot. « nd , "«£ r can, attach any idea of E'uU to Tier, tthe will always be to me a pure and sweet memory, clouded only by muror- <une. due. ns I know, Co her mental malady. _J0hurles P.

Atlanta, July 22.—(Special.)—Who will be the exposition mayor Is a question that Is causing a great many Atlanta people a great deal tof talk and worry. The election does not occur until De cember. tout several candidates nave al ready taken the field, nnd others have been urged Btrongly to enter. Hon. Porier King anil Col. John H. Seals ere the candidate* nbw on the boards, but neither one of them appears to have the call. In fact many are unalterably bf posed to either, because p .hr»/ say they ore not Just exactly what Atlanta, ought to have for an exposition major. This Bort of sentiment has resulted In systematic efforts to get other men In the field, but so far it oeeras that the men who lessen, the peculiar qualities popularly supposed to be necessary to make a firet-clasa exposition mayor de cline to heed these calls. The nmbl- tp.us cllinn looks to the mayor to lead th; pi occasion on all occasions during the exposition.* to make public adtrenncB by til.* score, after-dinner speeches vdth- out limit nnd do the sodety act on n scale equal to an rfllco of state. To do this It Is necessary to have a mayor •with a Ionic bank account. The salary of the office is hardly enough th pay house rent If the exposition mayor comes up to expectations, md therefore «om« ptbple are losing sleep on the sub ject. The strangest part of it Is that all those who have so far been tempted have thrust the honor from them with think*. "Whether this is because they would rather have a gallery seat ot some other fellow’s expense nr because of cth*r reasons hard to say Just yet At any rate there have already been an even half dozen prominent citizens who might have had a clear held, but would no» enter. The latest tr. fhto list Is Mr J. G.
