RICHMOND REUNION.
Mrs. Davis Says She Will Gladly Be Present Why MT. Royal Will Not Deliver
 His Lecture.

Richmond, Va, June S.-At a meeting tonight of the committee having charge of the reception to be rendered Mrs. Jeff ferson Davis at the Davis mansion dur ing the Confederate reunion here letter was read from Mrs. Davis saying that reception Mrs. Davis will be seated upon a platform between two of the rooms and will not be expected to rise or shake hands with the guests.
 Miss Winnie Davis and Mrs. Hayes will receive at the foot of the platform.
 MT. William l.. Royal has decided not to deliver his lecture on the Battle of Gettysburg" during the Confederate re- union. In a letter to the Dispatch he says:
 T had proposed to deliver my lecture on the Battle of Gettysburg during the coming reunion of Confederate veterans in Richmond. I have, however, become aware that the criticism in that lecture of certain eminent Confederate leaders had created an anxiety in the minds Of some of our devoted southerners that such lecture might be construed as a breach of that whole-souled and univer- sal hospitality which is the prevailing spirit of the people of Virginia, and es- pecially of the city of Richmond, in wei coming to our borders the valiant de- lenders of our homes and firesides.
 "Without in any way changing my opinion as to the historical truth of the statements have made, I shall not pre- sent them at a time when they might be distasteful to any Confederate guest of the city of Richmond

STRUCK BY AN ENGINE.
Mr. w. E. Yancey Seriously hi ured at Oak- man Sunday Morning-The Chances
 m Favor of Ills Recovery

MT. w. D. Yancey of this city met with an accident at Qakman, Walker county, Sun day morning, which may result in his death. L. e
 From all accounts MT. Yancey was walk ing along the Southern railway track on curve, almost in sight of the depot, when eastbound passenger train No. 36 came in sight. Engineer Tom Shivers espied the man as his engine rounded tho curve As soon as thought and action could do the work he reversed the engine applied brakes and blew the danger signal. The man was seen to look back but too late to get out of the way, andlhe was struck by the cow- catcher and thrown heavily to one side
 The train was halted and the engineer, ed the injured man. up and put him in Q car and the train was moved into Oakman and medical assjstahce summoned. His in- juries were temporarily dressed and he was brought to this elty and taken to DTS. Will son Browns iptitmary, where all atten- tion possible is being given him.
 On examination 1t was found that MT. Yancey had sustained an ugly scalp wousd on the back of the head, his right leg is formally injured.
 Last night he was resting very we'll and was much improved, and the doctors pro- nounced him out of danger of fatal results
 The impression prevails with the train crew of No. 36 that MT. Yanoey thought he was on the side track when he heard the en- gineers signal and did not leave the track.
 MT Yancey is prominent citizen of this city, where he and his family are greatly beloved and respected.
 Every possible attention is being given him at the infrmary.

THAT B|G COTTON FACTORY Its Erection Will Begin at an
 Early Day. PROJECTORS ARE MOVING The Cost of the Plant May Reach Sl l,000,- 000-Will Be Up to Date in
 Every Respect.

The State Herald is reliably informed that letter was received in this city under date of Saturday, June 6. stating that the gentlemen of Chester, Pa, whom the citizens of Birmingham have interested in the building of large cot ton factory in this city are now formulat- ing their plans and getting everything in readiness to build the factory.
 It will be remembered that Brming- ham was asked to take stock in the sum of S100.000 to assure the plant, which was readily taken by some of our most en- terprisng citizens. This they did not simply to secure the enterprise, but as an investment, knowing that the gentle men with whom they were to become as- soeiated were men who have made a sue cess in the manufacture of cotton and whose regulations are limited of the highest in the commercial world.
 The exact cost of the plant has not yet been estimated, but it will cost complete in the neighborhood of $S00,0 900, or pos sibly $1,000,000 This is the biggest man. ufacturing enterprise Birmingham has secured in many months, and of course the good news will be read with pleasure not only by our citizenship, but by people throughout the state, as all have come to know that when Birmingham blos- soms Alabama blooms.

ceased, came to Mobile, accompanied by a dentist. the object of the latter's com ing being to identify the body by certain filings In the teeth. This precaution, however, was unnecessary, as the bSdy was identified by the clothing, the gold watch and other articles found. A white farmer who lives not a great distance from where the body was found reports that Jordan came to his house about two months ago, and it was apparent that his mind was in a flighty condition. He at first accused, the farmer of having been chasing him with dogs, but finally made friends with him and attempted to pawn his watch to him for $35. He told the farmer that he was not well, and that he would give the world for a dose of mor- phine. This was the last seen or heard of Dr. Jordan until the discovery of his bleached skeleton a few days ago.
 The remains were brought to this city today, where they were prepared for bur ial in a handsome case by Undertaken Gice, who was an old friend of the de- ceased, and shipped to Columbus for in- terment, accompanied by the brother, MT. G. G. Jordan.
 pr. Jordan has for many years been one of the most prominent physicians and best known citizens of Columbus. Recently his heaHh became seriously inn paired and he used opiates freely to ale viate the pain he endured until he be- came addicted to the habit. His mind tissues are supposed to have finally given way, and two months ago he wandered away from home without notice to his friends or family, with the result related a
