SOUTH'S ECLAT SUNG
Mighty Men Of e Mighty Section
Unite on Active Plans.
CLOSING DAY OF THE GREAT CONGRESS-.
The Delegates Served to Brunswick Stew
and Barbacucd Pig Informal Speech
es-Thc Good Accomplished Told
By GeOrCia'S senator.

AUGUSTA, Ga, June 4.-The last dav
of the Southern interstate immigra-
ton and industrial congress was large
~ social in its observance. The o
gress met at 9 o'clock and the two hour
session was devoted largely to the pas
sage of resolutions covering matters Of
detail. votes Of thanks. and like mat
ters. The next place Of meeting was
left to the executive committee to de-
eide and the committee will be called
together in the next few months for
this and other purposes. The eXecu-
tive is also charged with printing and
distributing the proceedings of the
convention.
A resolution was adopted by the con-
gress declaring we find the south has
suffered less than any other section,
and is already rallying from the recent
panic. She is on the threshold of an
era Of great development and prOsperi-
tv and we invite eastern capital and
western immigrants to come south and
share in the prosperous times ahead.
After the adjournment at eleven
o'clock the nbers of the convention
were carried up the Augusta canal to
the locks. seven miles above the city
where an old time Georgia barbecue
Inner with all the accomplishments
was enjOved. This novel form of ban
quet was much enjoyed by the guests
and the ride up the canal gave a view
Of several of AuguStaS million dollars
cotton factories and the canal itself
which pays the city annually five per
cent. on two million dollars. The
tOa>ta after dinner were for the most
part in lighter vein and the most i'm
pOrt2nt was that Of Senator Walsh. com
batting the idea hat the convention
had accomplished nothing Of practical
value. Senator Walsh declared the as
sembl;ng here Of the governors and
representative men Of tn southern
states in the interest Of migration had
called 10 the attention of the whole
country the fact that the south was
seeking for settlers to work in her
field, and develop her of
forest. quarry and mine. The testi-
non Of these representative men to
the fertility Of the soil: the delightful
climate: the healthfulncsS the Sccur-
ity Of life, liberty and property the
interest in education; and the sure re-
turns on capital invested in the south,
cnatOr Walsh declared was obliged to
result in great good which would prove
the abundant success Of the congress-.
The majority Of the delegates left for
home on the outgoing trains last night,
and a number will go down on a special
car to Port Royal to-day to inspect this
great natural harbOr. and see the Brit
ish King loading. She "a a capacity
of twelve thousand bales Of cotton, the
largest ship that ever entered a south
Atlantic port.

A BEAUTIFUL DESERTED CITY
Found In tho Heart of Sierra
Madre Mountains.
REACHED FROM A DEEP CANON
With Regular Streets and Fine
Buildings.


CHICAGO, ILL, Feb. ia special to
the Tribune from Mapimi, Mexico, says:
Malvern w. Cresworth, an English
mining man, well known throughout
southwest Mexico, arrived here yester-
day from long overland journey
through the Sierra Madre mountains,
his starting point being Culican, near
the Pacific coast in the state of Sinaloa.
He claims to have discovered a large
and beautiful deserted city. He says 1t
is situated about 80 miles west of Lake
Colorado, in the very recess of the
Sierra Madres, and occupies basin 10
miles long and eight miles wide. Per-
pendicular cliffs surround the basin on
all sides, rising to the height of hun
drcds of feet.
The only entrance to the city Is
through deep canon, 80 feet wide. Mr..
Cresworth says he stumbled into the
secret entrance by accident. The build
ings, he says, are constructed of blocks
OF rod stone resembling granite. The
business blocks are two and three stories
in height and are different in architect
ural design from the structures built by
the Aztecs and Spaniards. The streets
are narrow, but are laid out in regular
order.
In the city is small park, which is
overgrown with rare flowers and tropi-
cal vegetation. He found many strange
ornaments, but of little value. While
no one in that section ever heard of the
city, Mr.. Cresworth's story is generally
believed.
