stock will take place in front of the l grand stand. The classes to be judged | today are the jacks and jennies, Ger | man coach horses. This competition | will take place promptly at 10:so I o'clock, and those who have entries are required to be on hand promptly. | The first of the large crowds from | out of town to attend the fair is ex- | pected today, which is known as Drum mers' Day. Knights of the Grip have 1 invited their friends here today, and will take advantage of the opportunity to afford their customers good days sport. It promises to be a lively day along the Curve. as the travellers are always good spenders when they get together for a good time.
 Great interest is being manifested in
 the program for tomorrow, which will include the football game between the University of Alabama and the uni- yersity of Georgia That the game
 may not be interrupted, the races Will be called off, and the spectators Tn the grand stand will have ample oppor- tunity to witness the sport without in- terruption.
 The boys from Tuscaloosa will ar rive here this noon. and will be tend cred a smoker tonight by the alumni of the college, at which time words of cheer and encouragement will De spoken by some of the graduates or the University.
 News comes from Tuscaloosa that the eleven is in much better form than 1t was a week ago, and that much profit was derived from Mondays game with Sewanee. Trainers have been hard at
 work during the week rubbing the kinks out of the players who were bruised up in Mondays game. Burks. who was seriously handicapped in Mon days game with a severe attack of Charley Horse, is in much better shape, and hopeh to enter the game In per- feet condition.
 One of the stars of the Alabama line up is Chick Hannon. Montgomery boy, who is playing quarter. It was Hannon who made Alabama's only score against Sewanee. He kicked a field goal from the twenty-yard line and at an almost impossible angle. He made the longest gains of any man on his team, and repeatedly threatened to get away from the entire Tiger field and race for touchdown.
 Little is known here as yet of the Georgia lineup, or the relative strength of the team. One thing is known. and that is that Georgia has a very light but very fast team this year. which means that the play will be open and spectacular.
 Vague rumors have been received of the addition to the Red and Black eleven of some of the old stars who have returned to take special courses at the college. Nothing certain is known further than that Joe Rossiter. one of the best linemen ever produced in the South. has returned to Athens, and will probably be seen in the lineup tomorrow.

CONTEST OVER SALE
RECORD IN GORDON BANKRUPTCY
 FILED IN FEDERAL COURT.
Referee sfratton Finds No Evidence of Fraud An Purchase by w. n. Seed, But Recommends Acceptance
 of Higher Hid.

A record of the court proceedings in the bankrupt matter of the Gordon Lumber Company, of Gordon, Houston County. wAs filed yesterday with the Clerk of the United States Court by Asa D. Stratton, Referee in Bankrupt cy. This matter involves a contest over the sale of the property, whe- ther the property shall go to Hon. Walter D. Seed. State Treasurer, for of Pennsylvania, for s25.000.
 The property was knocked down to MT. Seed at public outcry on August 15. for s1s.000. the sale being conduct. ed by George Stuart, trustee.
 Subsequently Bought and other creditors contested the sale in the bankrupt court. claiming that the price was inadequate and also that "the pur- chaser at the sale was guilty of which was a fraud in fact and in law upon the Gordon Lumber Company, and the creditors az well as the trustee making the sale"
 However, Judge Stratton, in his re- port to Judge Jones, says there was no evidence of irregularity or fraud ulent conduct, and the question is one altogether of inadequacy in price.
 Tt is submitted" says Judge Strat- ton, mat th9re IS no SubstantfaI eVfQ- once Of any frregularity or fraudulent conduct in the sale. and that the ques- ton in the matter is alone that of sin- adequacy of price"
 Afer hearing the evidence in the contest of sale, Bought and his asso- ciates offered S2o 900, then $22.000 and finally $25,o0O. The referee thereupon disapproved the sale to MT. Seed and accepted the $25.ooo offer.
 Mir. Seed subsequently, filed an ap+ peal to Judge Jones. demanding pos. session of the property and that the sale to him be confirmed The pro- ceeding now stands in this status.
 Regarding the allegation of fraud Mir. Seed said yesterday that he bough, the property Jointly with c. A. Sisk, a creditof, The property was too large for him to purchase alone, and he de- sired a partner. He found Mir. sisk on the eTsround at the sale and the two bought the property on a half and half basis Mir. Seed declared there was nothing irregular and 1t was entirely legitimate for him to take in a partner in buying such large interests.

FIXES THE TAX LEVY
PENSACOLA CITY COUNCIL AMENDS
 AN ORDNANCE.
ApprOpriatIon is Made for the New Po- lice Station-~GOvernOr Browara
 visits the Florida Soldiers.

Pensacola, Fla, Oct. 24-(Special) )-- owing to the fight put up by the sa- loon interests against paying license of s2,b0e for saloons located outside of the restricted district and de- cision which so far is favorable to them, the city council today amended the ordinance fixing the tax levy for the year and increased it one mill
 The rate was fixed one month ago at twelve mills. one and half mills to be devoted to general purposes, but the increased licenses of saloons had been estimated in the revenues and when the council learned that the sa- loon men will probably win out in their test of the license law 1t be- came necessary to increase the tax levy,
 At the same meeting the council ap- propriated $1O,OO0 for the purchase Of cells for the new police station. this being done on the recommendation of the mayor. The old police station contained a large number of cells when lit was demolished but 1t was decided that 1t would be useless expendi- ture of money to repair and place the old cells in a new building, so forty new ones have been provided for. which will be sufficient to. accommodate the usual number of prisoners confined in the city jail.

Negro Shoots Woman.

Theodore Williams, a negro, residing on the naval reservation. was arrested this morning by United States deputy marshals, charged with shooting Susie Stevens, a negress.
 The shooting followed a dance by ne- groes near the navy yard Wednesday night, at which Williams and the wo- man became engaged in a quarrel. When the woman was going to her home, the man followed and shot at her, inflicting a very serious wound.

 This morning he was given pre- Iiminary hearing in the United State Court and held to await the action of the next grand jury.

 The various batteries at Fort Pick ems were manned by the regular coast artillery, with the Florida troops as assistants. Targets in tow of the arr my steamer Poe were fired upon in the gulf, and the shooting was very accu- rate, considering the conditions and the sea prevailing. This was the first time the members of the State troops had ever witnessed the firing of the big guns. and the were interested from beginning to end.
 Tomorrow the program isfor the State troops to man the guns and engage in target practice, with the members of the coast artillery instructing them.
