COUNCIL STRUCK OUT JUBILEE
And Americas Will Have No Such
Accession.

By refusing to grant street privileges
and concessions to the Cincinnati COM

Jubilee, the city council last night
effectually squelched the effort to have
fall festival in Americus. The ques-
ton came up formally before that body
last night, and while several members
heartily favored the granting of the
privileges desired, the opposition had
plurality of one single vote and
effectually killed it. 1nasmuch as the
attractions it was proposed to bring here
were unobjectionable, many here did
not oppose the proposed festival. On
the other hand many merchants and
citizens did oppose il outright, and the
shows Will go elsewhere instead Of
