Evening Star Bureau, No. 701 King st., Bell Telephone No. 106, ALEXANDRIA, Va., March 21, 1900. The Agricultural and Industrial Fair As- sociation of Northern Virginia held a called meeting late yesterday afternoon in the rooms of the Business Men’s League for the purpos? of considering the charter recently granted the association by the legislature of Virginia. Vice President John Yarrow occupied the chair and Secretary George W. Hawxhurst kept the minutes. Mr. M. B. Harlow presented the charter as passed by the legislature. He stated that it had form, but that in the senate It had been put into the hands of a committee and so amended as to come under the provisions of the Maupin law, which prohibits the making of books or selling of pools within the state. The charter as first proposed contained a clause exempting the associa- tion from the operation of the Maupin law for a period of thirty days in each year. Considerable discussion followed the read- ing of the charter and the question was brought up as to whether the association could be made a success without the horse- racing feature. Several of the members declared that if the enterprise was to de- pend for success upon gambling it had bet- ter be dropped. This seemed to be the con- sensus of opinion. Mr. Church called at- tention to the broad and liberal scope of the charter in its present form and said he believed success could be achieved under it. He suggested the calling of a mass meeting of those interested at an early date. committee. It was decided to have litera- ture concerning the association printed and distributed. It was also decided to open subscriptions with the understanding that they will be returnable if, at a mass meet- ing soon to be held, it is decided not to continue the organization. tertained the association with a short ad- dress, City Cireuit Court.
