AN EARTHQUAKES.
4 Slight Slacck Felt is
Logan
4 Wsas Territory Shaken.

On las; FRIDAY aiternrtH. at 80
Columbus time, slight shock o.
an earthquake wss felt in Lo an.
But lew of our citizens noticed it..
and those who did, did not realize
what it WIS. until the papers
brought he news.
The earthquake ex' ended over a
territory bounded by the M'ssiss
ippi river on the vest, by the north
ern boundry of Ontario on the
II rlh. by the S0th degree of lon
situdo cn the east (the east line of
Ohi"0 and by the p rallel of Iati-
tude co in cidept with the soul hern
b,nndr J of Tennessee ON the south
All reports agree that il occurred
between 2::30 and $50 clock but
between these limits thnre is a great
difference of statement. From ali
acccum;s the shock was very pain
ly felt over his large ierr tory. and
cccasioned much alarm. Tall and
heavy buildings were rocked to and
fro IN Cincinnati, Louisville. Chat
tanooga. Detroit, Toledo, 10. onto,
Wheeling and Dubuque. From
these cities and from Il hundred
smaller cities and towns between
came reports of buildings shaken,
furnaturs moved. water spilled, and
people scared. The shock lasted
only few seconds, hut the memory
of 1T will induie TIL the next one
sbalI arrive.
This ear bquake, following that
in New York, and later slight one
in Tennessee, goes 10 confirm the
Dry that they are all caused b. dis
turnancc of internal pressure by
the opening Of gas wells in West
ern Pennsylvania, Southeastern
Ohio, and Northwestern Kentucky
These gas wells are practically min
iature, utilized volcanoes.
