Earthquakes aud Tidal Understanding
Phenemena ON fhe Pacific Coast.

PANAMA, Oct. 6.-On August 29th earth
quakes were felt in Salvador. Columbia and
Ecuador, while at Tacahuano, Chill, on
August 28th the water rose two feet above
high-water mark, and almost Immediately
afterward fell three feet. About noon the tide
went out, but fifteen or twenty minutes after
ward the water rose again as rapidly as it had
fallen, and it continued to ebb and flow all the
rest OF the day. At night the water was quite
calm, and it wore its customary appearance on
the following morning. Other phenomena
have been observed at different places at about
the same time. During the last week in
August noises such as that produced by con-
tinuous hriDg during severely contested
battle were heard at Gilman, within sixty
miles of Panama, In all the towns on the
BOgota plateau, and at Manabi, in Ecuador.
In all these places the detonstons induced the
belief that fighting was going on in the neigh
horhood and at zipaguira, near Bogota, and at
Manabl, in Ecuador, the troops we're turned
out ready to meet the supposed enemy. On
September 2 the sun at Panama and Guaya-
quill was discolored. thereby giving rise to
much conjecture and representations of CON-
ing evils. In alluding to this circumstance.
the NacioD, of Guayaquil, of September 9th
remarks: "Rumor persists in declaring that
great earthquake, occasioDed by volcanic
explosion, has taken place i'll the interior of
the repub bic, and those who declare this to be
the case appeal for proof thereof to the severe
earthquakes of the 29sh ultimo. and the extra
ordinary quantity of ashes which has fallen
and which is YET to be seen on the housetops.
The presence of the ashes certainly indicate
that an eruption has occurred, but it does not
necessarily follow that damage has been done
II is certainly a peculiar coincidence that the
color of the sun attracted attention on the
same day at places so far apart as Panama and
Guayaquil, and almost at the moment when
the fearful eruplons and earthquakes were
destroying Java aud adjacent islands. A
sharp earthquake, which did no damage, was
felt in Lima at few minutes past on the
morning of the 10Th, and which was about CO.
incident with that felt in the Western States
the same morning"

-FanaficaI Speeches by the Leading
Apostles.

SALT LAKE Cry, Oct. 6.-The fifty-third
semi-annual conference of the Mormon church
met in this city yesterday. Addresses were
made by Apostles Taylor, Young and Grant.
John Taylor, President of the Church, was
the first speaker; he gave description of the
church, its officers and their duties. He said
that the latter were the agents of God on earth
to carry out His works, and that God would
sustain His people and Zion would grow and
reign forever. Heber j. Grant, one of the
new Apostles appointed last year, followed Mr..
Taylor, and zsaloasIy advocated polygamy and
tithe paying. He said that after the passage
of the Edmunds law polygamists protesting 10
be good Latter Day Saints had put away their
wives and sent them to their mothers. He
had an utter contempt for such mon. He had
more respect for Gentiles and Methodists,
avowed enemies, than he had for Latter Day
Saints frightened by law passed by Congress-
John Tayler, President of the church, was
the first to send his wives away, and he did not
call them together again until The church con-
cluded to t5st the constitutionality of the act.
Brigham Young, Jr., said that the powers of
darkness Were strengthening to overthrow the
church of God, but that no power on earth
could overthrow the saints, and that stronger
revelations than those they had received we're
yet to come.
George Cannon spoke in the same strain, and
said that nothing but the spirit of God was
Apostle Snow said that all the powers of
heaven and hell could not prevail against the
Saints and that they would go on prospering,
The attendance is large and the meetings show
the determination of the church to stand by
polygamy.
