Results Of the San Salvador Eartboua 10

NEW YORK, Sept 1.-THE Herald has
this cable dispatch from San Salvador:
Details Of the terrible earthquake shock.
OF which L cabled you on Wednesday, prove
II TO have been more disastrous than sup
posed. In this city about forty persons
were killed and sixteen more or less
seriously injured. There is no telling
to what extent the mortality list viii.
reach, but Judging from the fearful results
IN San Salvador the number of killed
throughout the country will be some
where in the hundreds. While the
alarming reverberations were going on it
was utterly impossible for any one to keep
his footing. From all the houses the TN
fortunate jewellers issued on all fours
tiles and plaster kept falling all about
them. The air was filled with agonizing
shrleks. Merchants lost heavily through
the destruction OF fragile goods.
Inc panic has now pretty nearly sub
sided, although families are sleeping in
tents in their yards or houses or public
parks or streets. Earthquakes, both feeble
snd violent continue at irregular intervals.
Everybody expects the climax to
come on September 81 on account of the
equinox, as experience shows that this
phenomenon exerts great influence
on local earthquakes. 1t is not IN
likely this city will be made a
total wreck. Tho government has
sent 300 men to deepen the outlet to
Lake Hopongo in order to diminish the
amount OF water in it and reduce the vio-
lent shocks. Some workmen engaged in
digging the outlet were carried away by the
wild torrent of warm, i'll smelling water
and drowned.
Details of ruins of towns in the axis of
the earthquake are very meagre. Of 800
houses at Comasagua only eight
remain standing. The loss of life
there is great. News came by tele-
gram yesterday that the waters of
the lake are growing warmer and have
fallen three feet up to 9 a, m, when they
rose again, reaching by p m. seven feet
above the normal level. Nobody slept last
night as all were expecting another violent
shock. Fortunately nothing unusual hap
pened.
