A VAST COUNTRY WAITING FOR
DEVELOPMENT.
Northern Brains and Capital Invited to
Come and Possess the Land-An I'm
migration Convention.

AsHvILLE, N. c., Dec. 1S.-The inter-
state immigration convention began
business this morning. Two resolutions
were introduced deprecating sectional
animosity and protesting against the
passage OF the elections bill. Both were
referred.
Resolutions were introduced by Boone,
OF North Carolina, saying the war is all
over, and extending to brethren in the
north and west an invitation to come
and make their homes in the south, and
aid the southerners in developing "this
richest country in resources, in climate
and location of any section on the face
of the earth" The resolutions end with
q call for "half million sons of toll and
half a million manufacturers of the north
and west, to make their homes with us
and join in the development of this
land" Referred.
The committee on railroad matters
made report favoring 'homeseekers"
and land excursion tickets to promote
and encourage immigration, and asked
that committee be appointed to apply
to the several railroad associations for
Ullc cAJcllSlOi vi Cllc Sdlc Vi SuCtl GlCkcJS.
As the practice of scalping or ticket
brokerage makes these tickets hazard
GUS to the revenue of the railroads, in
many instances, the committee recon-
mends that the convention memorialize
congress to prohibit scalping or ticket
brokerage, by an amendment to the
interstate commerce law. 1t also rec
ommends that each state delegation
h,,tr,r fI,nt cfro 70 hn nft
ton of their congressman and legisla-
lures. This resolution was adopted.
General Manager Chiffon, of the
annual report referred to the good work
sending exhibits to the north. A great
deal had been done in the advertising
line, and southern products had been
displayed in several northern states and
Canada.
If the means will justify, the associa-
ton proposes to engage speakers to adj
dress meetings in The north. east and
west, and contend against the prejudice
towards the south. 1t is also proposed
to use stereop ticons, showing views of in
terest in the south. ETC., and representa-
tives will start out within ninety days.
If the convention endorses the plan
and scope of the work mapped out, the
association will become the most power
full body of men ever banded together
for upbuilding any country, and the
success that will speedily come to the
south, will be marvel to the whole
world.
A vote of thanks was rendered Chill
ton and he was reelected general man

a man about sixty years of age, and
who from papers found is believed to be
William j. Cunning, correspondent of
a Chicago newspaper, was found in the
entrance to the Belden block today. 1t
is supposed his death was due to apo
plexy. The deceased was making trip
around the world to secure a collection
of curiosities for the worlds fair.
CHICAGO, Dec. 1S.--Wm. J. Cunning,
who died suddenly in San Francisco, to-
day, was an old resident of Chicago. He
was a talented designer and engraver.
Until recently he was associated with
the Columbia Lithograph company, but
had disposed of all his business inter-
ests, preparatory to a trip around
the world. He had acquired a neat
competence, as the result of his business
endeavors, and had wide reputation as
a collector of curious. his home 2941 In
diana avenue containing many fine
specimens. His collection was started
seventeen years ago during prolonged
tour in British Columbia and Alaska.
Recently he had several consultations
with the worlds fair directors relative
to securing collection for the exposi-
ton and combining it with his private
collection. He finally started on his
own responsibility. He was to have
gone FIRST to the Sandwich islands,
thence to Australia, Africa, India and
China, and expected to be absent
two years. His mother died last Feb
ruary, and, as he was unmarried, he
broke up his home before leaving, plac-
ing his collections in the Art institute.
His brother, R. j. Cunning, has ordered
his remains forwarded here. He was a
member of the Elks and Knights OF
Pythias.

CRUSHED BY AN AVALANCHE.
The Terrible Fate of Two Miners in the
Sierras.

The Terrible Fate of Two Miners in the
Sierras.
BRIDGEPORT, CAL, Dec. Is. = Archy
McNabb arrived from Lundy, today,
bringing additional news in, regard to
the death of William Robinson and
Jacob Weaver. They were killed
by snow slide, instead of by an
explosion OF powder, as atfirst supposed.
Weaver was found alive, under broken
timbers and debris of the cabin, in
which they lived. Both of his legs and
one arm were crushed by the timbers,
and were frozen. He was sensible when
found, and said he thought he had been
confined five days since the slide oc-
Cured. During that time he had gotten
hold of hand saw, and while trying to
free himself of the fallen timbers, had
nearly sawed his frozen arm from his
body without feeling it. When
released the rescue party started
with him to town, but he died before
they reached the foot of the mountain.
The statement that Robinson was found
on dump of the mines, was a mistake.
His mangled body was found about
fifteen hundred feet down the mountain
side below the cabin, where he had
been carried by an avalanche of snow
and rocks. The accident took place at
the Clifton mine near Lundy.
