THE LATEST CABINET GOSSIP.
President Arthur said this afternoon that
Governor Morgan had not yet accepted the
Secretaryship of the Treasury. A member
OF the Cabinet, when asked what he
thought of the outlook, said ''It
means that Morgan Declines" The Presi
dents failure to send in the name
Of Attorney General McVeigh's successor
to the Senate to day is considered to mean
that the question of Cabinet changes if
being reconsidered, and that new names
may now be selected for both the existing
and contemplated vacancies.
1t was definitely ascertsined to night that
Governor Morgan has declined the Treasury
portfolio. Rumor assigns to the vacancy
the name of Judge FOlger, of New York

BurYing Man Alive In Broad Day
Ifght


While Mr.. Ralph Gore, the contractor,
was experimenting the work in the new
sewer, and while he was at the bottom
of the excavation, the earth began to
give away. He stepped aside and let all
in his employ escape ahead of him, and
then the earth fell on him. His head
could be seen just above the earth. 'T
think my legs are broken, gentlemen,
he said, "but set to work and dig me
out Of my grave. He spoke encourag-
ingly and made light of the accident.
While the workmen were digging the
other bank was seen to be giving way.
1t was over the spot where Mr. Gore
stood wedged in as in a wise. Five or
six hundred tons of earth and rock must
come down unless miracle interviewed.
The laborers had cleared away the
earth as far as Mr.. Cores shoulders, but
now they had to fly for their own lives.
Next moment the man was alone. Above
him was the tottering avalanche, and on
the south bank stood a crowd of people
with pallid faces. The look of despair
that he gave when he took in the situa-
ton will never be forgotten. He made
one more desperate struggle to extricate
himself, and then resigned himself to his
fate. He fixed his eyes on the slowly
moving mass and watched it creep nearer
and nearer to the point where he knew
it would receive sufficient impetus to be
hurled down upon him. "God help me-"
he exclaimed, and the awe-stricken crowd
echoed the wish. Then his lips were
seen to move in prayer, and thelandslide
moved faster. 1t received a temporary
check, but again glided on toward the
brink. The suspense at this moment
was terrible. A large school opposite
had just let out, and the teachers and
children had gathered ON the brink.
Men, women and children sobbed aloud,
and some knelt in prayer The avalanche
was now within two feet of the point
where the bank became sleeper Slowly
it crept; inch by inch the point was
reached; its pace quickened; there was
rush, and the next moment five hundred
tons of earth plunged over the brink, and
fell with a crash on top of the mans
head. Later in the day the body was
recovered, a Shapeless mass,

A Serious Mining Problem.

SAN FRANCISCO, October 25. .-Investiga,
tion begun week ago by committee oi
the Board of Trade through the mining dis
tricts in Butte, Yuba and Nevada counties,
has convinced the committee that con-
tinuation of the present system of mining
will ruin the city of Marysvllle and the valley
and watercourse Of the Sacramento, but the
mining interests are too important to be
stopped. They think the proper remedy
will be to construct dams, by which, it is
believed, the debris can be impounded. The
miners express their willingness to do this.
