 Baldy, ridden by Walter Norris. The
 latter horse won in 3:20.
 The first harness race was a one
 mile trot, two in three, between Sirius Onward, by w. N. Tiffany, and Miss Colbert, by J. K. Wheat. Miss Col bert won the first and third heats in 2:52iA and 2:491z. and Sirius Onward l took the second heat in 2:52.

 The running race was' the novel fea- l ture of the day, owing to the fact that
 one of the jockeys was a young lady.
 Miss Yetter, who directed the course | of Sardou's horse Monday. The op- | posing entry was James w, owned by | W. A. Priestly. and ridden by George ] w. Wilson.

POSITION IN A MACON COMPANY
MIR. Sullivan Will Serve Sentence in
Macon.

1t was learned here yesterday that
Mr.. Ct. I. Sullivan, instead of going to
Atlanta to report to the Prison Com
mission for assignment to duty at one
OF the state camps, as was generally
understood here, went directly to the
Standard Company's camp at Macon,
Ar angem snts to this end had been
made we'll in advance.
This company, in which the Messrs
Massee and Moore, who are we'll known
in Americus, are interested, manufac-
lures brick upon large scale.
Mr.. Sullivan, it is understood, would
likely be given a clerical position at
this camp, probably that of book-keep-
or. He will thus be near home and
among people who know him very we'll
He is supposed to have entered upon
his new duties yesterday morning.
DR.. G. w. Barrow is still in the
Americus Jail, but efforts are being
made to secure for him in advance 9

PEOPLE TO VOTE ON RAILWAY.
Ere Council Can Make Contract With
Company.

While the city council may favor the
granting of an electric railway fran
chise to the street railway company
proposing to come here and make large
Investments, the matter of Iong-term
contract must first be ratified by the
voters of the city.
And that this will be done overwhel-
mingly there is no doubt.
The city council can grant the rail-
way franchise, bat it cannot make the
long-term contract for street lighting
and water pumping except by vote of
the taxpayers
But there will be no obstacle upon
this score, as it is now believed there
would not be dozen votes polIed
against such measure.
After the council reports favorably
upon the proposition, and all details
are arranged, the terms of the proposed
contract will be published for informa-
ton. Then an election will be ordered
whereat this contract will be fully and
freely ratified.
This will be done by the qualified
voters of the city at some early date,
probably in January. when the people
will speak emphaticaIly In favor of the
desired Improvement.

ASKS PRoRAr,Ne OF LICENSES.
Council Considers Many Requests of
Kind.

At the meeting two weeks ago the
city council adopted motion whereby
the special license tax on hardware,
fish and oysters, bottling works and
wood yards was fixed at so per cent.
of the annual license tax for TIE bal
snce of this year. All Licenses date
from January 1st, and as a rule are
not pro-rated, but this action OF the
council in letting down the bars fer q
few has resulted in numerous appIi-
cations from others desiring like re-
duction. Several such applications have
since been made from parties, propos-
ing to engage in bnsin ese, including
iehus and those who fain would ex
pose for sale and barter the mullet Of

DROPPING LOWER BY DEGREES
Several Points are Shaved off Values
Daily.

Probably upon the idea that every
ginhouse is packed with cotton bales
held back by farmers for higher prices,
the men who manipulate prices con-
tlnue to shave few points from cot
ton values each day. Another slight
decline yesterday put values in Ameli-
Gus slightly under "the hall" and good
middling was quoted at % cents. Des-
pite the roseate view of the situation
taken by the more optimistic "buIls"
there are not few cotton men in
Americus who hold contrary opinion
and these would not be surprised to
see prices decline full half cent from
present values ere the entire crop is
marketed. Cotton may go to 10 cents,
or even II cents, but that time is in
the dim and very distant future
