colleetionsof agricultural and live
stock exhibits ever assembled in

partments. Twenty-five counties

improved and enlarged. New
swine sheds and barns have been
constructed.
Official shows of corn, canning,
poultry and pig clubs and the
Dixie Pigeon association and

sand 1 of birds have been entered

hundreds of additional pens have

Six days of horse racing will be

Seven thousand dollars in cash
purses have been offered and

foot of space has already been
reserved.

services of , Lawrence Brown a
well-known aviator, who made a
success at the Trenton, N. J.,
fair. He will be required to make
night flights with an illuminated
machine, fly upside down and
loop the loop.
The fair association has spent
much money this year and prom
ises the best fair that Georgia
has ever hail, barring none.
Foreign Ships Being
Held at Savannah.
Savannah, Oct. 12. Because
of the German submarine sus
pected off the mouth of the Sa
vannah River, fifteen foreign
vessels, including steamers, ships
and barks, of British, Spanish,
Danish, Norwegian and Italian
nationality, are remaining in port.
Not a foreign ship has left here
since Sunday.
Yesterday the British steamer
Noya, hooked for Liverpool with
a million-doilar cargo of cotton
and pigiron, took out her clear
ance papers, but, acting under a
warning supposedly coming from
the British Consul, did not sail.
She is still in port.
The American steamer Minne
sotan, which sailed Tuesday for
Now York, is the only vessel out
oft: harbor since Sunday. The
wireless operator on the Minne
sotan, H. C. Bigelman, is the
man who is credited with picking
up the w ireless message warning
that a Gere in submarine was
utf Martin’s Industry, an island
at the mouth of the Savannah
River. But Bigelman denies this.
Because of a United States
statute imposing a fine of SI,OOO
on a wireless operator who vio
lates the terms of his license in
giving out a message which he
has picked up or received in reg
ular channels, it is impossible to
find an op rator who will admit
receiving the submarine wireless
warnings Monday night The
United States revenue cutter
Tampa, stationed at Charleston,
is understeod to be on the lookout
for the German submarine.
