UNFORTUNATE ZANTE.
The Island Again Shaken by Vio-
lent Earthquake Shocks.
THOUSANDS RENDERED HOMELESS.

Streets Impas,abie on Account OF the
Masses of Stone and Timber from
Wrecked BuIldings-The People Panic
Stricken and the Authorities Helpless.
ATHENS, April is.--The island of Zante,
one of the principal Ionian islands, was
visited by three destructive earthquake
shocks yesterday, resulting in great loss
of life and property. In February and
March last the island sustained a vast
amount of damage by seismic disturb
ances and large number Of lives were
lost.
The shock appears to have been most
violent in the city of Zante, the greater
part of which was destroyed. The people
are panic stricken and the authorities
helpless. The streets are impossible, be-
ing filled with masses Of stone and timber,
the wreckage of the houses which were
thrown down by the earthquake.
Thus far the bodies of twenty persons
killed by falling walls have been removed
from the debris. and it is feared many
more dead are still in the ruins. The
number of persons injured runs up into
the hundreds. Everything is in confusion,
and the work of searching for bodies and
for the injured cannot be pursued sys-
tematically.
The greater portion Of the inhabitants
have fled to the plains back of the city,
where they wander about in distracted
manner, bewailing the loss of their homes
and property. A large number of tents
that were taken to Zante to shelter the
people who were rendered homeless by the
former earthquakes have been again set
up, and under them some of the women
a..I .ls N,1rn
sands are without shelter and few have
sufficient food
The city presents a scene Of desolation,
and it is doubtful il 1t ever RECEIVERS from
the scenes of misfortunes that have be-
fallen it within the past three months.
There is bound to be an enormous amount
of suffering, and outside aid will be ur-
gently required to prevent sickness and
starvation

Surrender to Chilean Authority.

WASHINGTON, April 1s-The secretary
Of state and the president have under
serious consideration the surrender to the
Chilean government of the two Chilean
refugees to whom Minister Egan granted
an asylum in the legation building during

legation building The president has al

to surrender them, but it is said is wait
ing some fuller information as to tho
charges against the refugees before taking

the crime of attempting to blow up the
government buildings, and the secretary
belives that this is not political offense,
which could alone justify the interposition
OF the United States in their behalf.
