CHANGES IN LIMITS
WILL BE DISCUSSED by COUNCIL
TOMORROW NIGHT.
CAPT. BLUN'S OBJECTIONS.
TO INCLUDING HIS SPRINGFIELD
PROPERTY.

Major RyaIs VIII Present Ills Case
Before the COuncil-Mr. w. w.
Gordon, Jr.'s Petition TO Exclude
the CuyIer Property East of the
City From the Proposed Extend
ed ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Myers
Saws the Council Is Ready to Hear
From All Property Owners Affect
ed by Proposed Extension of Linn
its.
Capt. Henry Blum called on Mayor
Myers yesterday at the City Exchange
in reference to the meeting with Coun-
Gil advised by the Chatham represen-
tatives and Senator Cam. for the
property owners objecting to the ex-
tension of the city limits contemplated
in the resolution passed some weeks
which was formerly a portion of the
Springfield plantation, west of the
city, and he objects to it's incorpora-
ton unless the bona fide plan of the
city should be extended over it.
Mayor Myers told Capt. Blum that
Council would very gladly hear him
and any other property owners at the
meeting tomorrow night. Maj. &. M.
Ryals will appear with Capt. Blum
then, and it is quite possible that other
property owners may appear. Maj.
Ryals wants his place, which is used
solely for agricultural purposes, ex-
cluded from the city limits. 1t has
Maj. Ryals offers arguments to show
that it should not be incorporated. He
says the Legislature has just as much
right to draw in the lines of the city
as to push them outward.
Mr. w. w. Gordon, Jr., attorney for
the estate of John NJ. Cuyler, has filed
a petition requesting that a tract of
fifty-four acres, at the intersection of
Waters road and Bee road, the incor-
poration of which is contemplated, be
left out. He asks that the plan be so
changed as to not include the tract, as
it is used only for agricultural purposes
and is not at present adaptable as city
property.
Save for the appearance of the OBJ
jecting property owners. the meeting
of Council does not promise much of
interest Unless new business or new
measures are introduced, it seems
probable that there will not be very
much to demand the attention of the
board,

Prizes offered to Add 10 the Inter-
est of the Companies.

The companies of the First Infantry
will go to Charleston on Feb. %. This
plan has already been laid, and an in
centive has been given the companies
to carefully prepare for the trip.
After drill last night. when the COM
panies were drawn up in the yard of
the armory, Lieut.. Col G. A. Gordon
announced that he and Col. T. S.

be $40. to go to the company making
the best showing on the trip. while
the other will be $40, to be awarded to
the company that in the opinion of the
officers, may show the greatest inn
provement between this and the time
for the trip.

MARKETS ARE BOOMING.
Prices of Grain and other Necessa-
ries on the Advance.

The price of about everything except
King Cotton is humping in the local
markets. During the past few days
grain has climbed upward until white
corn in job lots is IS cents, and in cars
IS cents, and mixed corn in job lots
81 cents, and cars 81 cents. Oats are
also on the rise, No. 2 now being 561z
cents in cars, and 5S1a cents in job lots.
and white clipped, SO cents in cars. and
641a cents in job lots. Eggs are %
cents at wholesale. and retailing about
town for a quarter per dozen.
About the sharpest advance is in
Irish potatoes, which are now selling
at So per bushel. with the supply linn
tied. One firm received a letter from
New York yesterday stating that the
market for potatoes had been jumping
from 10 to Is cents per bushel daily
for the past few days, and that the
supply is apparently unequal to the
demand. Potatoes are being imported
from Germany right along, hut this
does not seem to relieve the large de-
mand. The short crop threatens to put
the price TO dizzy nights before the
top Is reached, unless the demand les
sens or imports materially increase.
Worst of all for many folks is the
rise in apples, which is in proportion
TO the advances in other things. They
are selling at $4.75 to IS per barrel. The
approach of the holidays make the de-
mand good, so that the price is not
apt to yield any unless the supply is
very large. Butter is also strong.
While these things have risen other
necessaries of life have dropped some.
Meats are about the same, and game
is cheaper, if anything. A butcher in
the market said yesterday that he was
selling the finest of summer ducks
cheaper than ever before to his knowl-
edge. A fine pair may be had for 60
to zoe. When properly prepared these
make a very dainty meal, and are
largely used by Savannah housekeep-
ers. -,

TO CAUCUS ON BILL.
Administration Forces VIII Get To-
gether on Election Measure.


A caucus of the active supporters of
the Citizens Club, or administration
faction, will be held tonight for the
purpose of discussing the bill providing
that the election of city officers be
placed in the hands of the incoming
board. A majority of the aldermen
have been invited to the caucus.
The list of those invited contains the
names of those who have attended the
administration caucuses in the past,
and with only one or two exceptions,
have any new faces been invited. 1t
is the purpose of the caucus to discuss
the ACCESSIBILITY of changing the law
for the election, and appointing, of city
officers. There appears TO be no doubt
but that the ajority of those who at
tend the caucus will decide in favor OF
the bill for the incoming board to elect.
Several prominent members of the
municipality who are opposed to the
measure, but who have been invited to
be present, have expressed an inabili-
ty to attend the caucus, but will adj
dress letters setting forth their views.
These letters will be read at the meet
ing and the subject will be gone over
thoroughly. One of the advocates of
the Dill stated lndt lOL OIlly WIN a
majority of the active supporters of the
administration faction favor the
change in the election law. but that no
serious opposition will be made by any
one
If as is expected the bill is endorsed
at the caucus it will be introduced by
Representative Harden, and this APP
pears TO be a foregone conclusion. 1t
is claimed by the advocates of the
measure that the conservative element
has never been in favor of the present
law, and that as a matter of fact it
is all wrong. Several city officials,
who are certain of being reelected by
the present Council, without opposition,
are in favor of the measure.

THIRTY-TW0 LOTS SOLD.
Purchasers Got GammeII Property
at Reasonable Figures.

Thirty-two building lots in the Gam
nell tract We're sold at auction yester-
day by John L. Archer. About sixty
four more are yet to be sold.
The lots sold yesterday are on Bolton
and Waldburg streets, east of Price,
and were considered specially attrac-
tive to home seekers. The sale was at
tended by good crowd, but the prices
which the property brought did not
suit Auctioneer Archer altogether, and
in his opinion those who were wise
enough to purchase obtained bargains.
The lots were sold on the easy pay
ment plan, and while those on Bolton
street brought more money, they were
purchased by one buyer, and evidently
for the purpose of speculation. The
Waldburg street lots did not bring
quite as much money, but appeared to
be the favorite location for those whose
purpose it is to build. The southeast
ern section of the city is building up
rapidly, and the Gammell tract is the
only vacant property left in the old
city limits. The disagreeable weather
probably had something to do with the
size of the crowd and real estate
man who attended the sale stated that
in his opinion the property would have
brought much more money If sold in
the spring.
Eight lots on the north side of Bolton
street were knocked down to George
H. Miller at 1870 each. The bidder had
the right to take one or the block OF
lots and Mr.. Miller was so we'll pleased
with his purchase that he took all eight.
The same thing happened on the
south side of the street when eight
other lots Were placed Ipder the ham
mer. Mr. Miller bid $1,000 for an in
side lot, and decided to take the block
at the same figure.
Eight lots on the south side of
Waldburg street We're sold next, and
the bidding was a little more spirited
There are ALREADY on tii1is street. fro1r1
Habersham to East Broad, several
handsome dwellings. Lot No. -. the
inside lot, was sold to G. a. Vetter for
$915. The adjoining lot, No. II, was
purchased by c. S. Moore at he same
figure. Lot No. Is was knocked down
to Arthur NJ. Lucas, Jr., for $780, The
remaining five lots of the blocks were
sold to Cord Kracke1 a, $685. each. The
purchaser bid on one lot, but lecidei
to take all five after the sale had leen
made.
On the north side ~ the street G. S.
Moore bid in the first lot at 1905. and
decided to take TWO at that price. 'i'he
third lot was sold to w IT. Gray, for
$3.50. The next lot was knocked down
to G. H. Miller, for $500, ami !ie deemed
it wise to take all I've at that figure.
A block of eight lots ON Bolton street,
a half block west of the Gammell
tract. was sold last spring by ndc-'
ticneer Dorset for from S1,4oO to So
200 each.
Yesterday was The first attempt at
an auction sale at this season of the
year, indicating thai the season is not
profitable one from the sellers point
of view, in the face of the difference
in the figures obtained for lots in the
same locality. -

FOR BASE BALL PRESIDENCY.
Savannah Man to be Nominated for
Head of Southeastern League.

The Organization meeting of the
Southeastern Baseball League will be
held Dec 10, either in Charleston or
Columbia, S. C. 1t is probable that
Charleston will be selected, as the In
terstate and West Indian Exposition
will be in progress there at the time,
for the meeting and there win
be attractions of other sorts than the
business of the meeting to draw the
delegates.
An effort will be made to have some
Savannah man elected president of the
league. This will be the largest and
most important city of the league and
it is generally felt, by baseball enthu-
siasts here that Savannah is entitled
to the honor of the presidency. The
man whom the Savannah delegates will
nominate has not yet been definitely
agreed upon. but an effort will be made
to have some one who will be person
ally acceptable and agreeable to the
delegates from other cities.
There is no doubt about the Savan-
nah club. 1t will be on hand when the
season opens and Mr.. Dan J. Charlton
said yesterday that it would be good
one The effort will be to place a club
in Savannah that will capture the
pennant and those behind the move
ment do not fear failure. They will
have the team, no matter what IL
costs.
Mr.. Charlton and Mr. John j. Horri-
gan, who are the present moving spir-
it's in the enterprise, expect to asso-
ciate with them some three of four
others. They are going to get the right
sort of men, men in whom the people
of the city have confidence and whose
standing will guarantee clean baseball
and an earnest and determined effort
to win the pennant. Mr. Charlton said
he had no doubt that the enterprise
would receive the support of the peo-
pie of the city and that it was the
purpose of himself and his associates
to give those who attend the games
and back the Savannah team the full
