capt DhWsout or the NoWs and Courier,
Tells about the Earthquake Noiue.
NEW YORK, Oct, 3--Capt. Il. w. Daw-
son, editor OF the Charleston News and
Courier, gives some details concerning
the late earthquake which had not been
made public. Capt. Dawson on the
evening OF the first terrible shock went
home early. Missing his night key he
went around the house and entered ny a
rear entrance. He had just reached his
room when the shock came. Capt. Daw-
son said "the first unusual thing sur
prislng to me was long rumble and a
gradually increasing roar, Of which you
have heard 80 much. Then came swaylng
back and forth, rotary motion and heaylng
as If ship was on heavy sea. To give
you some notion OF the noise which ac-
compenied the earthquake and about
WHICH little has been said, though IL was
ore OF the most potent factors in creating
the uncontrolled terror among people,
may say that never knew that about
twenty tons Of brick from the front OF my
hOuse had fallen forty TO fifty feet, de-
m9lishing everything 10 It's way. Many
OF us have been through scores Of battles
and baye seen pretty bad storms at sea
aud vet nothing eau equal The turrol,
producing effect OF that horrible roar
which precedes an earthquake. At the
News and Courier office is a parapet ffty
feet above the sidewalk, composed Of
nearly hundred tons Of granite blocks,
one OF which required forty men TO turn
over. These were all brought down TO
the sidewalk In the first shock, and yet
no one In the building heard them fail
Capt Dawson says he has on the first
floor Of his house tank holding 1000
gallons OF water. The tank was unn-
jured but the shaking was so violent that
all OF the water was thrown out.
