AN EARTHQUAKE
Visits New York City
Sunday Afternoon.
Extending as Far South as Bal
timore, and as Far West
as Cleveland.
Many People Imagine the End
of the World Has Come.

NEW YORK, August lO.-NeW
York was to-day shaken by ar
earthquake unprecedented in its
severity in the loud noise that
accompanied the vibrations. All
parts of the city were affected
but in some portions the shock
was more severely felt than 9th
ers. In those sections where the
houses are built on made ground
but little motion was felt, the
residenters only being startled
by the loud and unusual noise.
1t seems to have been the first
impression with everyone that
either tremendous explosion
had occurred or else the building
near to them was tumbling
down, and it was some time af-
ter it was all over that it became
generally known that New York
had been visited by an earth
quake which even in volcanic
countries would be regarded as
severe. The first shock occurred
exactly six minutes past 2 p. m.
and lasted a trifle over Is seconds.
The motion was lateral, the wave
passing from southwest to north
east. The shock was for the first
second a gentle motion. This
was followed by terrific shaking,
which lasted to the end and alb
ruptly ceased. The shock was
fully half over before the rum
bling began. The noise COM
menced' with an explosion like
that of a fifty pound cannon. and
continued fully fifteen seconds
after the vibration ceased. It
was as loud a noise as would be
made by a half a dozen railroad
trains going over an iron bridge
at one time. 1t sounded and
felt as though an enormous build
ing was falling in the neighbor-
hood. First was the shaking,
followed by the loud crash as
though the wall was giving away
as though the whole structure
was falling over.
The excitement all along the
Atlantic seaboard was intense,
and many people thought the |
world was coming TO an end.
The shock was felt as far west |
as Cleveland.
Considerable damage was done

No shock was felt at Logan. I.
