The story published yesterday regard ing the reported sale of the Birmingham Belt Railroad to H. M. Atkinson and as- sociates caused considerable gossip. The report is generally credited by well-in- formed persons, but many rumors are heard regarding the purpose for which the road was bought.
 The most popular theory is that the purchase was made for the Seaboard Air Line Railroad and that road will use the line as a means of access to Birmingham. The evasive statement of Mr Atkinson and his promise of a later statement add considerably to the importance of the report A statement was made in Balti- more yesterday that the sale was for the Seaboard Air Line and that transfer papers were forwarded through the First National Bank of Birmingham.
 President Barker of the bank was asked for a statement. In reply he said:
 "I know nothing whatever regarding the deal that can say to you.'
 No further statement bearing on any part of the question could be secured from MT. Barker. The officers and at- torneys for the Belt Line would make no further statement yesterday All

ANOTHER MOVE ID HAVE STATE
 FAIR THIS FALL Meeting of Citizens to Discuss the Matter Will be Held
 Tonight LIKELY TO FORFEIT SITE Lessor Says an Exhibition Must Be Held or the Association Will
 Lose Its Claim on the Grounds.
LIKELY TO FORFEIT SITE

Birmingham may have a State Fair this fall after all.
 It was decided at the conference of business men held at the Commercial Club last Friday night for the purpose of considering the feasibility of having a fair in November that it would be bet ter not to attempt an exhibition this year; but it was the sense of the meet ing that a movement should be started early next spring looking to big fair early in October, 1902
 oiation's committee on grounds, reported that he had conferred with the lessor and had been assured that the lease which runs six years, and the improve ments, valued at s1O.oO0. would not be for feited in the event that no exhibition was held this fall, provided the associa- tion paid $500 rent. It was on this report that the conference acted. MT. Fox now learns that the lessor has changed his mind. and that he insists upon an exhi- bition as a condition to the association retaining its lease and Improvements.
 In view of the present phase of the situation John w. O'Neill, secretary of the Fair Association. has called a meet ing of his board of directors for tonight that prompt action may be taken.
 Col. Jeff Falkner gave up the presiden- cy of the association in the summer, and Mayor Drennen, who holds the po- sition of vice president, Is absent from the city But those who are interested in the success of the enterprise in ques- ton say that a determined effort must now be made to have a fair in November and carry out the terms of the lease.
 Robert Jemison who presided at the conference Friday, and M. V. Joseph, D. J. Fox, Moxie Fies and Ferd Marx, who attended, are among those who promise support to any business like movement in the interest of a state fair this fall. MT. Fies gave 1t as his opinion that if the right sort of promoter were to come along and undertake an exhibition he would find the enterprise profitable. A promoter could get up creditable fair, he said, inside of forty days.

"The Burgomaster."

One of the jolliest and most successful of recent musical comedies, which Is none other than 'The Burgomaster," is an nounced for a return engagement at the Jefferson Theatre next Monday and Tues day and Tuesday matinee.
 Peter Stuyvesant, Governor of New Am sterdam, drinks some drugged liquor, and when he comes to and discovers himself amidst a hilarious throng on Broadway, New York City, he finds that the Dutch town of New Amsterdam has become the American metropolis and that he has grown a new leg to take the place of the wooden one which encum bered his as a Burgomaster. Peter does New York and Chicago thoroughly, and thereby hangs the tale of the play. The seashore, Wall street, the late Dewey arch on Broad way, the French ball at Madison Square Garden. are a few of the pictures of New York life displayed. and the illumined court of honor at the Worlds Fair and Dearborn street are few of the interest ing points visited in Chicago.

MARKET FAIRLY ACTIVE.
Eggs Still Scarce and Price Stands at
 20 Cents.

Birminghams country produce mar ket was fairly active yesterday. Eggs are still scarce and the price keeps up to 20 cents. Poultry receipts have been rather light this week. Good friers are in lively demand and the best of them bring 22 cents Common Alabama hens are ready sellers at % cents, while the heavier sort from Tennessee command as much as 30 cents.
 Irish potatoes are strong at a2o. The market was almost bare of this popu- lar product yesterday. but large ship ments are on the way here and by the last of the week the supply will perhaps more than equal the demand.
 Sweet potatoes continue to bring H.75 a barrel and the opinion prevails in Morris avenue that they will hardly drop below that price this year.
 Cabbage is in ample supply, and 1t keeps down to 1Ac per pound.

KRUGER STORY INCORRECT.
He Will Not Send Special Mission to
 Roosevelt.

The Hague, September 24.-The Asso- ciated Press representative here learns that the announcement in the Soir of Brussels that MT. Kruger has decided to send special mission to President Roose- welt is not correct. It appears that such a project had been in ontemplation, but the idea is not likely to be carried out owing to the great expense incidental to it and to the difficulty of securing a suit able representative.
 The expenses incurred since MT. Kru- ger came to Europe have reduced the Transvaal funds to a small sum. In fact some of the Boers here are even desti- tute, and all of them agree that MT. Kruger has scarcely enough for himself.
 It is not believed-as since the death of Mrs. Kruger he has not been the vigor- ous man of quick decision which he was formerly-that he will undertake trip to Washington.

 Among those who called at headquar- ters~yest erday were Hon. Sid Bowie, Dr. R. M. Cunningham. Congressman William Richardson and Gesner Williams of Ma rengo. MT. Williams reported that there would be no trouble about carrying his county for the Constitution.
 Judge Richardson expressed himself as confident of a good majority for the new instrument in his district. Ratification would get more votes there, he believed. than the call for the convention re- ceiyed.
 MT. Bowie said the crowd which he ad- dressed at Scale Monday manifested marked interest in his discussion. The Constitution. he thought, would get a strong majority in Russell county.
 Dr. Cunningham will speak at Elba, Coffee county. next Monday, October 30. at the request of the county committee.

MORE GOSSIP ABOUT
 HUNDRED SEABOARD DEAL

maintain a strict reserve when the sub ject is mentioned.
 One statement made yesterday is that MT. Atkinson has bought the line for use in connection with the local street railway system. This statement is given some credit because of the fact that Mir. Atkinsons past work has been devoted to electric light and street railway systems with the exception of the erection of the Empire office building in Atlanta.
 The following statement was received from New York bearing on the sale of the road for the Seaboard Air Line:
 'It was authoritatively stated here to- day that the East and West Railroad of Alabama is not owned by the Seaboard Air Line, as reported in dispatches re- ceived here from Birmingham last night. But your informant says it is owned by the Eugene Kelly estate, and comments by adding: This being the case, there is no reason why the Seaboard Air Line should desire control of the Birmingham belt line
 Upon what theory the New Yorker bases his assertions is not stated. The statement of MT. Atkinson for the Age Herald will throw full light upon the situation.
