CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, August 81 -
A decided earthquake shock was ielt

the Times building, two OF the strong

Great excitement was created in the
CITY and people ran sffrighted from
their homes in one part OF the city.
A lady became &c frightened that she
tainted and the neighbors were afraid
for q time TO 20 to her. A colored
meeting was in progress at the cours-
house, and when thu cry OF earthquake
was heard there was a general rush
for the door in the greatest fear. The
meeting was broken up. The X. OF L..
were holding a meeting in a third story
hall. The shock was 30 great as to move
chairs in the hall and cause the gas
pendants to sway vigorously. The
meeting became demoralized and tue

stairs. Other incidents occurred, in

created by the shock.

THE DATE FIXED
FOR THE MEETING OF THE LEG.
IsLATIYE CONVENTION.
The Basis Of RepresentatlOn-Mr. j.
M. Harris Gives His Reasons
for Retiring.

A meeting OF the Democratic Ex-
ecutive Committee was held last
night. when the date of the Legs
ls,ive Convention was fixed and the
number Of delegates to bs elected
agreed upon. 1t was decided to hold
the convention to nominate csndi-
dates for the Legislature in this
county Tuesday, September 18th.
The Congressional Convention will
meet two days later.
1t was decided 10 base the number
Of delegates to the former upon the
highest vote cast for Democratic can
didates for the Legislature two years
ego, one TO every 100.
The Congressional Committee OF the
Tenth District has already decided
upon one delegate for every 100,
taking the vote cast for Mr.. j. M.
Harris in 1884 as the basis.
For Busiuess Reasons.
The mornirg papers yesterday made
n britf announcement Of the with
drawal OF Mr.. j. NJ. Harris from the
race for Congress. No reason was
given, as il was too late when the in
formation was received to see him.
Last evening a reporter of the APPEAL
met him on Madison street and called
atieation to the general desire to know
why he had taken such an unlocked
for step.
"There is not much to be said" Mr..
Harris rep ied. Governor Harris re-
turned yesterday evening and had a
conversation with him which made
me determine to withdraw. My res-
son Is purely q personal one and grows
out OF business aud not political rea'
sors. We have a joint euteIpr 50 on
hand which will require my wEo o
time. There is n great deal more in
it than any honest man could realize
cut of q teat in Congress, and | deter
mined to drop po'it' cs and devote my

"What about the rumor that YOU
Withdrew in favor of some one else?'

REGULAR BONE SHAKER.
OLD MOTHER EARTH HAS A
HARD CHILL.
Widespread Excitement Throughout
. the City at 8 O'Clock
Last Night.
BUILDINGS ROCKED, CLOCKS
STOPPED AND BELLS RUNG.
No Damage Done Here, but Serious
Results Reported at Other
Places.

Atprscisely sos o'clock last night
the city was shaken up by an earth
quake which did no material damage,
but frightened a good many people
nearly out of their wits. The move
ment was from north TO south, the os.
citations rapid and distinct aud last
ing at least thirty seconds. 1t was
not felt to any extent on the ground,
but in the tops of the tall buildings
up town the rocking vas OF the most
pronounced description. The stree
were filed with people before the vi
brations lad entirely ceased, and the
greatest excitement prevailed. When
the shock struck the APPEAL Office
the blue eyed deck hand, sailor IS
he ia, Immediately derested the ship,
and for, the remainder OF the night
complained OF hsadsche and sea sick
uees. Across the way,
AT THH COTTON EXCHANGE,
there was considerable excitement.
The operators OF the Western Union
Telegraph Company, whose quarters
are in the attic, rushed pell NELL down
the stai ts, under the impression that
the building WAS about TO tumble in.
The telephone operators on the top
floor ii the tall building on the corner
Of Madison and Main streets, were
badly shaken up. At the hotels there
was the liveliest commotion. People
tumbled out OF bed half dressed, come
OF them making their way without
the loss OF time or the charity of al
| outer garment to the halls below.
ON FRONT Row
bookkeepers finishing up their work
for the month, suddenly finding their
figures dancing hornpipss, cut some
odd capsrs themsalves. The shock
seems to have been more violent in
the sou,heru part of the city. At the
safe Female College q gentleman was
thrown 10 the floor, and at Sanders's
drug store, on the conner of fernando
and Vance streets, a
CLICK WAS STOPPED
and a night bell ruug twice. Tin
roofs ratified and doors and windows
cresksd everywhere in the most alarm
ing wsy. DoGsns OF women were
thrown into Mysteries, and two o!
three are reported to have tainted
outright. The APPEALS telephone
was kept busy for an hour after the
occurrence by persons residing all
oval the city and in
THE SUBURBS,
inquiring about the character Of the
shock up town. Many odd experience;
were related. Some imagined they
vera taken with vertigo and looked
about for a soft place to fall. Others
supposed their last hour had arrived
and for a few seconds were as much
terrified as though they stood upor
the brink of eternity. Hundreds o
people complained of
HEADACHE AND NAUSEA,
due probably to the combined efeet
of the shock and fright. At the Sig
nal Service Office, which is under thu
roof of one of the highest building
in the city, the clock was stopped
as at many other place..

IN tDH SlguAl OUlCo mere lll7 tNchi'B
caused the sergeant in charge to pause
in the middle OF an observation. His
hand, he noticed, trembled violently,
aud for a moment he thought himself
Ill. The rocking OF a large chair in
the midd @ Of tho room aud the rat
Ting OF bottles on a shelf quickly
brought him to a realization that a
quake OF the earth was in progress.
The fist wave began at exactly 9:Ol
o'clock pm. and lasted Elk or seven
seconds. It's motion was from west
to east, and there were about three
or four vibrations to the teCond. The
barometer went up n hundtedth
of EN- inch in seven minutes. Soon
after the shock it marked 30.I7 and
continued to rise rapidly. The effects
Of the nhock were not generally nc
ticed in Chiclgo, except in the upper
stories Of tall building. Persons who
happened TO be converting by tele.
phone at the time suddenly found

the blame for the trouble was heaped
