The governors report is certain to attract attention in the east. It treats or conditions that must appeal to many homeseekers. Although the governor had but little time in which
 to prepare the report it is the equal of the best that have preceded it in cog ency of expression and in its fund of information relative to Arizona. What he says of the mining industry in par uicular will be read in money centers. Much good will result to the territory through the publication of this re- port by Governor McCord. The inter ests of the territory would be greatly advanced if several thousand copies of it could be circulated in the states.

The glass workers union of Amar- local union must not accept higher wages than the union prov ides. Talk about capital expressing labo-! The idea of union of workmen insisting reduce their wages is absurd and ri diculous. If the employers had sought to reduce wages the dema- gogues throughout the country wou have fairly shrieked at the '"cap-- talists.''

HAWAILANS HEAR MORGAN.
He Talks to Them of the Benefits and
 Wisdom of Annexation.


 San Francisco, Oct. 15.-Undted States Senator Morgan, of Alabama, made his first public appea. .ance be- fore the Hawaiian people on the ev- ening of September 30, at Kawalahao church, on which occasion, at tha in'- stance of several prominent Hawai- ians, he delivered an address to the natives upon the benefi.s of annexa- tion. It is estimated that be-ween seven hundred and eight hundred persons were present, of whom fully three hundred were native Hawaiians. Among other things Senator Morgan said
 q suppose 10 American senator ever had a more important duty to perform than I have Since I have been in Hawaii I have felt as if I were in a part of American country; it is not a European country, and when annexation takes place it's own peo- pie will merely be coming to their own. We are not anxious to recruit soldiers from the fifty thousand CT sixty thousand people here We are not anxious to secure their land. We are anxious for only ore thing=to se- cure you from aggression from for elgn powers. Almost every island in the south Pacific is now in the hands Of either Germany, France or Great Britain, and my opinion is that the only solution for the Hawaiian is lands is in annexation to the IJrdted States. The seventy-five million peo- pie in the United States are not going to permit foreign aggI ession in these islands,

A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

A serious accident occurred Wednesday
night on the Chesapeake and ohio rail-
way. The Press of New ort News prints
the following concerning the matter:
cit seems that one of the abutments
supporting the trestle' near the water
tank collapsed while a through freight,
bound from Richmond to this city, was
passing over it. The tresrle was about 80
feet high and 100 yards long and the col
lapse occurred just after engine crossed.
1t is reported that fifteen cars were pre-
ciptated in the swamp, but il is not
known whether any lives were lost.
Neither the east nor the west bound pas"
senger train was delayed by the accident,
as it occurred after they had passed that
point, but since all traffic has been
blocked. A wrecking train was sent out
from this city last night and it is thought
the damage will be repaired by 6 o'clock
this morning. General Superintendent
G. L. Doyle is at the scene of the accident
supervising the work of clearing away the
wreckage. A large party of Richmond
eXcursionists bound from Norfolk and
Virginia Beach were delayed in this city
till this morning, as the road was impas-
sible 1t was impossible to get the de-
tails of the accident last night, as com
munication with Morrison was cut of,
the wires being down.

Lots of Gold IN Virginia to he Had for
the Working.
The Philadelphia Times prints the fol
lowing communication:
To the Editor OF The Times: Having
often noticed in your valuable paper
favorable comments on the resources of
the South, while the whole country seems
to be going crazy over the gold discoveries
in the frozen regions of the Northwest,
l would like to call the attention of the
readers of the Times to the fact that in
nine hours ride from Philadelphia via
the Southern railroad TO Amherst county,
Virginia, there can be found in that
vicinity gold, copper, iron and other
minerals Also tin in Rockbridge county,
just beyond the Amherst line. These
minerals have been analyZed by professors
of the University Of Virginia, Blacksburg
College, Virginia, and DIR. Cabell White
head, bureau of the mint, Washington,
ID. G. The analysis showed each minera
to be rich and we'll worth working. This
is most delightful and healthy climate;
cheap labor can be had and cheap provis-
ions in abundance; wood and water
plentiful, and all convenient to railroads.
Vet the mineral resources of this section
are lying idle, simply for the want of cap
ital to develop them. Anyone wishing
further information on this subject eau
address j. W.Hen;ey or Edgar Withheld
Amherst Court House, Va. Very re
specially yours,
WILLIAM r. HENLEY.

wEYLER A COWARD.
Afraid to Pass Through One of His Par.
Gifted Provinces.

Hayana, via Key West, Aug 5.-Ger.
Weyler left Havana yesterday evening for
Matanzas, on the warship Vasco Nuuez
He did not dare go by land, as the coun-
try around Havana and the railroad be-
tween NRtanzas and the capital is con-
trolled by the insurgents.
Weyler arrived Mt Matanzas this morn
ing, and Immediately conferred with the
military authorities about the situation,
which in the environs of that city is as
grave as in the neighborhooh of the CAPT
tai.
The journey of Weyler by sea from Ha-
vana to Matanzas, which in normal times
may be made by the railroad in three
hours, is evident proof Of the truth of
the military situation in this province
heretofore reported. Were it not for the
full control Of the sea bt Spain the cap
tain general would hardly be able to
sleave his own capital in safety.
