EARTHQUAKE IN SPAIN.
MANY KILLED AND WOUNDED.
One Shock of Fifty Seconds Duration
Buildings Destroyed and In
habitants Panic-Stricken.

MApRIp, Dee 26.-The details of an earth
quake on Wednesday night, which were re-
ceiyed this morning. show that it was much
more disastrous than at first anticipated.
One shock lasted folly fifty seconds, and
was felt throughout the whole of Spain, but
more especially in Andalusia, where num-
Der of towns suffered severely. At Grenada
the houses rocked violently and the earth
trembled beneath the feet of the
inhabitants as they fed panic-stricken
from their homes To the fields on the
outskirts of the town. Some were wounded
while fleeing through the streets, by falling
bricks and cornices, but none have as yet
been reported killed. A number of build
considerable outlay TO repair them before
they can be re-occupied with safety.
At Malaga the shock was most disastrous
ly felt. Many houses were wrecked and a
number of inmates buried in the ruins.
Many persons were killed and large
numbers wounded. Those who escaped
without injury deserted their homes
and camped In the open squares and heids
outside of the town. The refugees were
huddled around huge bonfires, which were
kept burning all night, the weather beng
colder than usual and nearly all having fled
so hastily from their houses that they neg
lected to provide themselves with heavy
clothing. Fainter shocks occurred at inter
walls during the night, which increased the
alarm of the people, preventing them from
seeking shelter in any of the buildings.
To-day large gangs of men are at
work among the ruins of the wrecked
buildings, searching for the bodies of miss
ing persons. Already number of bodies
have been recovered and many more are
known to be still buried in the debris. The
government has sent provisions, clothing,
ETC., for the relief of the sufferers, and a
subscription list has been opened for the
same purpose.
In Madrid the damage was slight, but
the shock was sufficiently felt to frighten
the inhabitants. The places of amusement
were quickly emptied of their audiences, and
the performances brought to an abrupt
termination.
LATER.-Harrowing details of disasters
caused by the earthquakes in the south of
Spain continue to be received. Many per-
sons perished at Albania Lola and the sea-
port of Motrie, the village Albunclas was
wholly destroyed. The grand convent OF
Seville fell in ruins amid pitiful scenes.
