$500 FOR THE FAIR.
city Council Voted That Amount ut
Meeting Yesterday.

The City Council decided at a special
meeting held yesterday at 1880 o'clock
to donate $500 to the Savannah Fair
Association, to be expended for the
State Fair. The president of the Fair
Association, for the directors, had pc
titioned for $4,000, but the aldermen
never once considered giving so large
an amount.
One of the aldermen said after the
meeting. which was in caucus. that no
other amount than 81. 500 was proposed.
BY general consent, all seemed to
agree upon that amount. 1t was re-
garded as quite as much as the city
could give, as expenses this year have
been heavy.
While in caucus the aldermen agreed
upon a resolution that was submitted
by Alderman James NJ. Dixon, chair
man of the Finance Committee. which
was presented in open meeting later.
Those present were Mayor Myers, AL
dermen Dixon. Watson. Fripp. Jones,
Canty, HOrrigan, Schroeder and Bacon.
The following was the resolution:
Resolved, by the Mayor and alder
men of the city of Savannah in Coun-
ell assembled: In view of the public
character of the enterprise represented
by the Savannah Fair Association. it's
proposed advertisement of the advant-
ages of Savannah, and the material
benefits to the city likely to follow from
this enterprise. that the sum of 81, 500
be subscribed by the city of Savannah
to this association and the Mayor is
requested to see to it's payment to the
treasurer of the association
President Owens of the Fair Asso-
citation was seen after the meeting. He
said he had hoped for a larger amount
from the city, but that $500 was GER
tainly better than nothing. Mr.. owens
is hopeful that the banks and the rail-
roads entering Savannah. when seen
by the soliciting committee. will make
liberal donations. thus augmenting the
Fair Associations funds.

TALKED OF ENcRoACHMENTS.
Special Committee Heard the Col
IinsvilIe Claimants.

The special committee of the City
Council, to which the Collinsville en-
croachments contract was referred at
the meeting of that body last week,
met yesterday to hear gentlemen in
terested in the claim against the city
urge the reasons why the full amount
of $4,000 should be paid their land in
vestment company. 1t remains to be
seen whether full payment will be
made.
Present at the conference were the
four members of the special committee,
Mayor Myers, Aldermen Dixon, Fripp
and Watson. Mr.. Jacob S. Collins, Mr.. j.
Randolph Anderson, Mr.. Hugh Logan,
Mr.. w. D. Simpkins and Mr. H. H.
Hull appeared for their company,
formerly the Oglethorpe Investment
Company which owned the Collinsville
lands when the city opened streets and
lanes through them.
Mr.. Collins, president of the com
pany, Mr.. Anderson and Mr..
Logan did the talking for the
claimant They showed that
their company never owned some of
the encroachments that the city now
wants to remove under the contract,
and their position is that there was
a mistake made in the contract, when
it was stipulated that they should do
liver the goods by removing all the
encrOachments upon the COllinsville
streets and lanes, as they do not own
and have never owned them all. Those
they do own they say, they are ready
to remove in accordance with the con-
tract.
Members of the committee said after
the conference that it was purely
question of contract. The company
agreed to remove all the encroach-
ments, and the city was ready to pay
the entire amount of $4,000 as soon as
the titles to the encroachments could
be made over. 1t has developed, how
ever, that the company is not able to
remove the encrOachments, there be-
ing comparatively few of them to
which they have clear titles. If the
$4,000 is paid, the members of the COM
mittee who were seen said. the con-
tract must be complied with. If only
a part of the encroachments are re-
moved, a proportionate amount of the
$4,000 will be paid.
The committee will continue its work.
1t is not ready yet to report to Coun-
ell, but it is probable that it will be by
the next meeting. A trade may be
reached, and an amount in place of the
$4,000 may be agreed upon.

RUNNING LATE CARS.
Cusino Patrons Get Home without
Trouble Now.


As long as the warm weather con-
tinues. and the travel warrants it,
General Manager McIntire will run
cars on the belt lines at night on the
seven and a half minute schedule. The
new schedule for the belt lines after 9
o'clock will continue so long as the
patronage is as satisfactory as at pres
ent.
The performance at the Casino, at
Thunderbolt last night, attracted a
large crowd and was entertaining.
Many remained over until the last cars,
which left the resort at midnight. The
new cars were kept for the last trip,
and were all crowded with people who
had gone out 10 get a Whit of salt air.
The company at the resort this week is
a creditable one. and bids fair to be
popular with Casino patrons. The
usual matinee and night performances
will be given during the week.
Cars were running on the Whitaker
street and belt lines after midnight
last night, and those who remained at
ThunderbOlt until the last cars left for
the city found no difficulty in reach
ing their homes. The late cars have TO
be manned by extra conductors and
motOrmen. Those who must report for
duty at O'Clock in the morning are
not used on the late cars.

WILL BE NO PRIZE DRILL.
First Infantry Companies Did Not
Accent Mr. Bohanss Offer.


The officers OF the six local companies
of the First Infantry met last night
and considered the offer of Mr.. w. NJ.
Bohan of the South End Pavilion at
Tybee, who wanted prize drill held
at his place on the island. The officers
did not accept the proposition, and
none of the companies of the First In
fantry will enter the contest. One
reason that was urged against it was
that little time would be allowed for
instrucung and practicing the drill
teams. The following was the letter
addressed to the companies by Mr..
Bohan, through Capt. w. E. Coney, ad-
jutant of the First Infantry:
Understanding that there is a
friendly rivalry among the different
companies of the Georgia State Troops
stationed at Savannah as TO which
numbers among it's members the best
drilled man, and believing that con-
test to decide this point would prove
interesting, not only to the military,
but to the public at large, beg to ad-
wise you that / have decided to offer
the following prizes to be competed
for upon the following conditions at
the South End pavilion at Tybee ISL
and on the night of the 18th of August,
1901: Company trophy, valued at go,
three individual prizes aggregating in
value $25.
THE winner of the drill sill deceive
the first individual prize and to his
company will be awarded the company
trophy The men standing second and
third in the drill will be awarded the
second and third individual prizes.
Each company win be allowed to enter
five men and there must be entries
from not less than four companies.
Companies desiring to enter this
contest will please communicate at
once with Capt. w. f. Coney, adju-
tant of the FIRST Infantry, who will
have entire charge of the military fea-
ture of the programme.
Competent and disinterested judges
will be selected as soon as all the en-
tries are in and a circular containing
full information as to the various
movements will be issued. | propose
to give a military ball Immediately af-
ter the drill"
1t is improbable that, in view of the
action of the companies of the First
Infantry last night, there will be a
prize drill at Tybee this season. Some
of the Savannah Volunteer Guards
have been discussing the drill, too, but
all four of the batteries would have to
enter in order to supply the minimum
number, and it is doubtful if they
would. Next year, were such an offer
made by Mr. Bohan, sufficiently early
in the season to allow ample time for
preparation, it is thought the COM
mands would gladly enter.

them down, and then threw them from

Conductor Rosseau told she story of
the assault to the Recorder, and was
quite sure that the prisoner was the
man who had struck him with the
coupling pin. Hayes. too. said that he
could not be mistaken and told of the
vicious blow that he had received in
the face. Bell admitted that he had
stolen a ride from Everett City, but
declared that he remembered nothing
of the assault. He said that he had
been struck in the head, and that he
knew nothing after that. Detective
Murphy however, had heard the negro
