Disastseas EaFthqaakes.
LosDoS, June 2.-Dispatches from
Bombay state that news has Just reach
ed there of disastrous earthquake in
the Cashmere country Of India. A
series Of shocks began On Sunday, and
they have continued at intervals of ten
| minutes ever since. The shocks are
very severe at Sere-Naguri, the capital
OF Cashmere. A barracks, in which
several hundred soldiers were quarter
ed, was completely destroyed. COL
lapsinR so suddenly that nearly half of
them were Imprisoned in the debris.
Fifty are known to have been killed,
while folly 100 are more or less injured.
| A portion OF the city has bean demol-
| ished, while various of the remaining
buildings escaped injury, many having
large rents made in them. The people
became panic stricken shortly after the
| disturbances began, aud fed from the
| city TO take refuge in boats and tents in
the open fields. The total number kill
ed aud wounded Ia mos yet known, nor
the full extent of the damage done, ow-
ing to the interruption in the working
OF the telegraph wires. Il 10 feared
that the loss of life Is heavy, as the
latest information from there calls for
help, saying that hundreds of animals
have been killed, and that the distress
among the people 10 very great.
The terrified inhabitants are now
oamped 10 the fields that surround the
town. Sere NsRuri Is near the csntsr
OF the Vale Of Cashmere, and the whole
country experienced terrible earth
quake shocks. The damage caused
throughout the vale is enormous. The
loss in cattle alone Is very great. Tbs
ahriRhted people seem to be utterly
helpless, and suocor is being sent them
as rapidly as the indian authorities can
organize relief. Many of the houses,
on account OF large rents in the walls,
must be RACED TO the ground. The
shocks have not yet ceased, and this
fact greatly retards the work Of resca-
ing people pinned down In the debris.
and II is feared that many of those must
perish before they can be reached by
the relief parties.
