BIDS FOR PRIVILEGES.
Do Not Include Any for Pool Selling
at state Fair.

at Sta+c mr.
Applications and bids for grants of
privileges at the State Fair pour stead
lily every day into the office of the
secretary, and there are dozens of ap-
plicants for almost every privilege that
is to be granted.
1t is to be noticed, however, that none
of these is for the pool selling privi-
lege, which is the one from which the
greatest amount of money was hoped
10 be realized. The sports have been
scared off by the possible interference
Of the Good Government League and
nave not Ventured to put in bids. The
reluctance of bidders for this privilege
TO make an appearance is a matter of
serious concern to the State Fair AS
ISOLATION officers. 1t seems that the
ear of those who would otherwise be
bidders for the privilege is not round
ed IN fact, as there has never been any
announcement of intention on the part
Of the Good Government League to in
ertere with anything save gambling
ana Sunday liquor selling, within the
hmlts Of the city of Savannah.
Mr.. A. b. Moore, vice president and
general manager of the fair, addressed
d letter last night to Mr. Martin Cal
Nn' secretary of the State AgIicultu-
lai society, asking him to come to Sa-
yahnah in the course of the next few
Gays and consult with the directors of
me Fair as to the space to be assigned
various prospective exhibitors in the
new buildings. Mr.. Calvin will proba-

Suit Against Insurance Company
Was Thrown Out of Court.

The insurance suit of C. E. Jones
against the Bankers Union of the
World, fraternal insurance company
was thrown out of the City Court yes
terday by Judge Norwood, upon the
motion of the defendant, based upon
the ground that suit had not been in
stituted within twelve months after the
deah of the insured, as the provisions
of the policy made essential to its le-
gal enforcement.
The policy upon which the suit was
founded was upon the life of the wife
of the plaintiff who died on Sept. 8,
1898. The policy was for $1,000. At the
first trial of the case a non suit was
granted and the case was brought over
again. The motion to dismiss was
made upon the grounds stated and
Judge Norwood agreed with the cor
rectness of the defendants position.
The plaintiff was represented by Mr..
