HOUSTON, Texas, September 10
Governor Savers tonight wires the fol-
lowing signed statement to the Asso-
ciated Press:
1.-THE situation tonight in all parts
of the striker district is improved and
will, believe, should we have fair
weather, continue to improve. The
method of distributing the benefactions
of the people has become systematized
and has been reduced to the lowest ex-
penses possible and in this have had
the hearty and voluntary assistance of
the railway, express, telegraph and tele-
phone companies, all of whom have
promptly and without charge transmit
ted supplies and messages besides con-
tributing to the relief of the sufferers.
Galveston is being managed by its own
municipal authorities, supplemented by
the assistance of committees composed
of its best citizens, and also by the aid
of Gen. Scurry.
Judge Taliaferro, of Houston, a gem
tleman OF integrity and experience, has
taken charge of Brazoria county, and
the mainland of Galveston county, and
| have already transmitted to him quite
a large sum of money to be used for
supplying that particular district be-
sides having previously shipped to
Angleton, Alvin and Velasco very
large quantity of -four and bacon.
There need be no apprehension but
that each and every afflicted commun-
ity will at the earliest moment prac-
ticable receive an abundant supply of
provisions.
Il have supplied Galveston with suf-
ficient money to pay reasonable wages
to all laborers who will assist in clean
ing the city and removing the vast
amount of debris that has accumulated.
"The loss of life occasioned by the
storm in Galveston and elsewhere on
the southern coast cannot be less than
10000 lives. while the loss of property
will probably aggregate s20,000.000.
ITO the people OF the United States
whose munifcient generosity has with
out solicitation from me contributed so
much to the relief of the storm suffer-
ers, l. as Governor of this State, beg to
tender my most profound and most
grateful acknowledgements, assuring
them their generous benefactions will
be held in lasting rememberances by
the people Of this State.
