1T is BOUND TO COME.
TIE 8. A. 81. AFTER TERMINAL FA-
CILITIES IN SAVANNAH.

The Road TO Re Built here As Soon As
It's Western Extension Is Completed.
The Cf1cials of the Road on the Look
out for River Front Property-An-
other Line of Steamers to New York.
The whistles OF the Savannah, Americus
and Montgomery railroad will be heard in
Montgomery about the middle of July, and
the probability is that they will also be
heard In Savannah next winter.
A man well up in railroad matters says
there is no longer any doubt that the Sa-
vannah, Americas and Montgomery intends
to have direct line Of its own to Savannah.
As soon as the work is finished at Mont
gomery the force will be transferred to this
end and will push the line to completion.
The Savannah, Americus and Monsgom.
cry wants TO get to the sea and wants ter
minal facilities Of its own. It is also its
intention as soon as possible to run line of
steamers to New York.
Several Of the officials Of the road were
In the city last week, hut they were very
quiet In their movements and would not
talk about their visit.
The completion of the 8. A. NJ. into Sa-
vannah will increase the business Of the
city to considerable extent. The road
runs through one of the most fertile cotton
growing regions Of Georgia and Alabama,
and with its own steamship line to New
York it will bring everything it possibly
can this way.
The rumor that the headquarters and
shops of the Savannah, Americas and
Montgomery will be carried to Montgomery
on the completion of the road to that city
in July is denied by General Agent Bagley.
He says the Savannah, Americas and Mont
gomery was built largely by Americas
money, and Amsricus people are RESPONSE
bic for its success, and it may be authorita-
lively stated that the headquarters and
offices Of the road will be kept IN Americus
A new roundhouse will soon be built and
many other improvements made.

ROUGH ON TEE CARRIES.
The Eisht-Hour Law Interpreted TO
Mean Sunday Delivery of Mall.

Ine Elgnt-hour Law interpreted 70
Mean Sunday Delivery of Mall.
Supt. Pollock Of the free delivery system
of the postofice department has interpreted
the new eight-hour law for letter carriers to
demand ffty~six hours Of work for every
week Of seven days. He holds that inAsmuch
as carriers are paid for seven days work
IN each week and are expected 10 render
service on Sundays, there Is only one way
the law can be interpreted, aud that Is 70
demand as much work on Sundays as other
days. He says the pay for Sundays is as
much as other or work days, and why not
exact the eight hours for the first day In
each weeks
Postmaster General Wanamaker does not
believe In Sunday mail service, but since
the law provides for it he will have 70 sus-
tain the decision OF Supt Pollock Of the
free delivery division. The letter carriers
foughs many years for the law limiting a
days work TO eight hours. They sent dele
gates 20 Washington to importune many
congresses, but the department officials say
no complaint can justly be made Of the
holding that as many hours must be de-
manded under the new law for Sunday as
any other day. Sunday has always been
day OF rest for carriers, and this decision
held in the postofflce department that this
construction should have been anticipated
in the law If it was to be considered hard
ship, in view of other CONCESSIONS
Postmaster Doyle has not yet received any
instructions In the matter, and he does not
know whether or not the new construction
will be enforced. The people of Savannah
do not demand Sunday delivery, he says,
and there is no necessity for it.

A TR P TO PULASKI.
The OLD Fort Rapidly Falling Into
Decay.

The OLD Fort Rapidly Falling Into
Decay.
A large party Of excursionists went down
to Fort Pulaski yesterday afternoon on the
steamer Eliza Hancox. An hour was given
at the fort, and the visitors wandered
around looking over the historic old place,
which is rapidly falling into decay.
The only manner in which the govern
ment seems to recognize that it has fort
at the mouth OF the Savannah is the ap-
pointment of a colored sergeant to guard it.
The guns are in good condition, but the
carriage platforms are rotting away, and if
one of the guns were fired the whole struct-
ure would be in danger of toppling over.
The interior brick work Of the fort is falling
to pieces, the trenches are mostly filed up
and overgrown with weeds. Were the SER
vices of Fort Pulaski called into requi-
sition now the place which was once a
power would be found to be practically
useless,

Happy Life.
Mrs. Abram Minis died at the family resi-
dence, on Jones street, yesterday afternoon,
after an illness of about ten days, from
peritonitis. Mrs. Minis was the daughter of
the late Israel Cohen Of Baltimore. Her
death is very sad one and casts a gloom
over large circle of acquaintance. 1t was
only last October that she became the bride
of Mr.. Minis. Mrs Minis was a
great social favorite in Baltimore
before her marriage and became
quite favorite in Savannah All of the
Minis family except Mr. A. Minis are now

CHATHAM AT THE FAIR.
AN EFFORT TO SEND AN ExHIBIr
TO MACON IN TIE FALL

Farming Industries Which No Other
Counties in the State Represent.
Maj Ryels' Plan for Securing an Ex-
hibit-1he Rice and Truck-Growing
Interests Capable of q Splendid Dis
play.
An endeavor is being made by Preslden.
wadden and the officers Of the state agri-
cultural society 70 secure an exhibit from
Chatham county for the state fair this fall.
The endeavor has been made in previous
years without success. 1t is hoped, how
ever, TO interest some Of the large rice
planters this year and the truck farmers.
and through them TO secure an exhibit from
this county.
Maj, 9. n. Ryals was seen yesterday
by MORNING NEWS reporter ia regard
70 the matter. Maj. Ryals said that he
would be very glad to see an
exhibit from Chatham county at
the fair, aud he believed it would
do the county great deal of good. He
said that he thought Chatham could make a
very creditable exhibit, and the chief
beauty about is that it would be an entirely
different exhibit from any of the other
counties in the state.
The reason why the officers Of the fair
are so anxious to get an exhibit
from Chatham county is that
its products are entirely different
from those of the other counties OF the state,
and an exhibit composed of these products
would attract general attention. I. might
do great deal of good in turning the at
tentiop Of people interested In truck grow
ing or in search for a suitable locality for
this industry this way.
Another product of Chatham county with
which the people Of the state are unfamiliar
is rice. An exhibition OF rice In its various
stages Of growth, with the rice IN the sheaf,
the rice in the husk and cleaned, would be
very interesting to the visitors TO the fair.
Chatham county would not have any diff
flculty in making a creditable ex-
hlbtt If the proper men would give
their time and attention 10 it. Major
Ryals has been urged to undertake this
work, but he says that he will have to 60 to
Atlanta as soon as he gets his crop harvested,
and will probably be in attendance upon
the legislature until the opening of the fair.
He said IL the county commissioners would
make an appropriation, a fair amount could
be raised by subscription to hire some one
TO devote his time 70 it and secure features
needed for an exhibit, and, he believed,
Chatham county could make good show at
the fair.
