Electrical Phenomenon,

Special dispatch to the San Francisco Chronicle
SACRAMENTO, April IA notable electrical
phenomenon was observed here this evening.
At about O'Clock q small cloud was observed
to rise in the northeast, over the mountains,
and in 4 short time vivid flashes of lightning
were seen to pcrvade it. at every display
the cloud seemed entirely cut Off from the
horizon by 4 line Of fire. This continued
till 0 O'Clock. The sky was otherwise per-
icctly clear during this time. The wind at
o'clock was mild, from the southwest, but by
9 O'Clock it had veered around to the north,
when the cloud disappeared. 1t has now

There Is from one and half to four feet of

The storm had Il fearful effect upon the
crowds Which filled the tents of the circus
and mcnagerie at the Belair Market lot. At
one time almost panic was created among
the hundreds Of men, women, and children,
who were present. The rain came in at the
flies and soiled many bonnet, and drove
some OF the spectators in the circus tent
from their seats. As the storm rose the
wind came driving in, swelling out the cam
vas like huge balloon, fairly lifting 1t. and
threatening an instantaneous collapse. Of
course there was general alarm, but as
the rain WIS coming down in perfect
sheets, it was better to remain than
TO brave the storm outside. The per-
Torrance, however, continued without in
terruption, but towards the close the excite
ment was intense heightened by the noise
Of the crcaking ropes, the cries of the women
and children huITying TO and fro, the thun-
der and vivid lightning, and the learfuI-look-
ing beasts in their cages excited by the I'm.
usual commotion. Many persons left before
the performance was over, and some hur-
richly crept under the canvas into the black
darkness, bewiidcrcd by the sudden transit
ton from the glare and excitement within.
Hundreds of people took refuge temporarily
under the Bear Market sheds, nearly all of
them more or less drenchcd and uncomfort-
able, separated from their companions or
children, and anxious only to get home.

IndeDcndencc.

Accounts to Thursday morning state that
the explosions and hcavings in Owens River
valley still continue, but not so violently.
The most correct estimates place the number
of killed at less than thirty. and of wounded
at about one hundred.
At Tibbctt's rancho, fifteen miles above
independence, about forty acres Of ground
sunk about $ ven feet below the surface of
the surrounding country. Big Owens lake
has risen four feet since the first shock.
Owens river ran over its banks, derosling
shoals Of fish OIL shore after il rcccdcd. For
Il distance of three or four miles through
Lone Pine the earth cracked. One side re-
NAMED stationary, while the other sank seven
or eight feet, leaving Il wall of earth extend
ing over three miles in length where formerly
WAS a level plain. Innumerable cracks We're
made throughout the valley. Kern and
Owens rivers turned and ran up stream for
several minutes, leaving their beds dry and
finally returned with largely increased vol
