HOPE IS RETURNING
DEsoLATIoN is DEPARTING
FROM GALVESTON.
GOV. SAVERS SEES CLEARING SKIES
sorely Stricken stonter of Heart-Ex-
ecutive Acknowledge to the People
of other States tho Gratitude.
Texas Owes for Assistance.

A Houston, Tex, Sept. 10, dispatch
says: Governor Joseph D. Sayers to-
night wires the following signed state
ment to the Associated press:
1.-The situation tonight in all nrts
of the stricken department, SO far as
known to me, is improved, and will, I
believe, should we have fair weather,
continue to improve. The method of
distributing the b~enefactions Of the
people has become systematized and
reduced to the lowest expense possible.
and in this l have had the hearty and
voluntary assistance of the railway,
express, telegraph and telephone COM
panies, all of whom have promptly and
without charge transmitted supplies
and messages besides contributing to
the relief of the sufferers.
Galveston is being managed by its
own municipal authorities, supple
mented by the COMMITTEES composed of
its best citizens and also by General
Scurrv. l am also informed that the
United States marshal, DR.. Grant, has
rendered and is rendering most val
liable aid. State Revenue Agent jun
son has also been sent to Galveston,
and will assist in the pending work.
There need be no apprehension but
that each and every afflicted COM
munity will at the earliest moment
practicable receive an abundant supply
of provisions.
Wages Paid Laborers.
II have supplied Galveston with suf-
fcient 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.
Provisions and clothing have also been
shipped to supply those who are needy
and unable to provide for themselves.
l have also made ample provision for
the relief of sufferers as they reach
and pass through Houston from Gal
weston. As % as l am able l shall
give to the public a complete itemized
statement of all moneys received by
me, how they have been distributed,
etc.
The loss of life occasioned by the
storm in Galveston and elsewhere on
the southern coast cannot be less than
$4,000 lives, while the loss of property
will probably aggregate $40, 900, 900.
Notwithstanding this severe ataiction
l have every confidence that the strick-
en- districts will rapidly revive and
that Galveston will, from her present
desolation and sorrow. arise with re-
newed strength and vigor.
10 the people of the United States,
whose muniicent generosity, without
solicitation from me, contributed so
much to the relief Of the storm suffer
ers, |, 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 remembrance by the
people of this state.
Messages of earnest sympathy, ac-
%companied by large contributions in
money and supplies and also in per-
sonal assistance, through the Red
Cross and other benevolent societies,
had the effect to relieve the situation
OF much of its sadness and misfortune.
