Quay has SO stocked" the national re-
publican executive committee that if the
minority should ever call upon him to ex-
plain the charges against him, they can
kick as much as they please and he will still
have command. By letting in his hench-
men, Clayton and Scott, he increased the
membership of the committee to thirteen,
and he is thus assured of q majority against
possible opposition. Thirteen is considered
an unlucky number. Possibly he considers
that popular superstition. but he will find
out that the popular belief in his guilt is
more than mere superstition. Popular
belief is not so easily overthrown as opposi-
ton minorities

earthquake shock yesterday morning was very
severe there. The railroad bridge was rendered
impossible, as the piers, sixty feet high, settled

inches. Railroad travel will be delayed few
hours. The most serious damage is reported
from Pajaro, where the railroad bridge was
thrown two feet out of line and the approaches
to IL damaged. Gas mains were disjointed at
Gilroy and many chimneys thrown down in the
neighborhood Of jacksonville. In some local
