Terrestrial Disturbances on the Island

Much Damage-A Child Killed and q
Woman Seriously Injured.
LONDON. April 23.--An earthquake shock
of great violence was felt in the eastern
counties Of England about $50 yesterday
morning. The conclusion seems to have
lasted about half minute in Essex and
Suffolk, where the most damage was done.
The first symptom was a deep rumbling
sound This was speedily followed by
a Quaking and shaking of all the
buildings. Church bells sounded, tall
chimney stacks crashed in ruin to the
earth and other lofty structures were
destroyed. At Colchester, where the great
est disturbances seem to have occurred,
child was killed and Woman's skull frac-
tured by falling bricks. Many persons who
were on the streets had narrow escapes. 1t
is impossible to estimate the damage in that
town alone In some of the streets traffic
has been forbidden, as some of the build
ings have been so badly shattered as
to be considered dangerous. The
spire of one of the largest churches in the
place fell with crash The side walls of
many houses near the town were shaken
out. 1t is estimated that the damage in and
about the town will be fully $50, 900. The
fine old parish church at Langanhoe was de-
moliShed, and the houses as badly dam
aged as though the town had passed through
a bombardment. The damage at Wivenhoe
will be $4,000 AT Coggleshall number of
schoolgirls rushed panic-stricken into the
streets when the shock occurred and many
OF them were seriously if not fatally injured
by falling debris At Southend the earth
trembled for miles around, windows in
buildings were broken, chmneyS
dashed to the earth. and crockery and glass
ware smashed. AT Ipswich the walls of
houses were perceptibly shaken, plates rat
tied and bells rung At Maiden the town
hall and private residences were sWayed
several times. In this city it is asserted
that several business houses were so per-
ceptibly shaken that the employees rushed
were shaken and the shock was distinctly
felt in CheapSide and Fleet street.
The wave passed from south to north,
and its duration was from six seconds to
half minute. The people in the localities
most affected were thrown into such state
of CONSERVATION that business has been sus-
pended for time. Hundreds rushed wildly
from their houses, while hundreds more
sought refuge in their cellars. Cries filled
the air as chairs and tables were overturned,
china and glassware ratified together and
were shattered, and chimneys and pictures
fell with a crash. The earthquake has
caused a general feeling of alarm and inse-
curity throughout England, as it is feared
more violent shocks will follow.
