Three Distinct Earthquake Shocks Folt
Yesterday Afternoon.
The people who live in tall houses
had lively time yesterday afternoon
when the city was shaken by very ro-
bust earthquake. The clock in Signal
Service Officer Livingston's office, at the
top OF the Wilson building, had just
registered 6:051a, Washington time,
when from out the southwest came the
earthwave. 1t moved northessterly. and
the building shook ominously, the chan
delier swayed and the sails on the wind
gauge began spinning the wrong way.

ing than the fret, and of about the came
duration. A third shock, which ended
with a rumbing sound like the dis.
charge OF distant ordnance, had the
effect OF causing emall.sizsd panic in
many OF the buildings and in the hotels.
Inmates, except such as were too terror
stricken to run, fed down the Stsirweys
and into the street. So far CO learned,
no damage was done.
SAN DIEGO, Oct. % This city and the
neighbor;ng towns were visitsd this
afternoon by series OF earthquakes of
more than ordinary severity. The first
occurred at 3 :0S p. m. and wac followed
at intervals OF quarter of q minu by
TWO others, the last being one of the
strongest experienced hereabopts sin Q
the coming of Americus. People in
brick houses swarmed into the streets
on hearing the startling grind of brick
and mortar and seeing in some cases
the walls crack. A heavy sound was
heard in all parts of the city immedi-
ately preceding the quake. but the big
buildings from whence these myaterious
noises proceeded were not shaken down,
nor was any damage reported as having
occurred. Considerable CONSERVATION
was caused in the public schools, the
children in some of the rooms being
hastily dismissed.
Clocks stopped, windows and doors
were shaken eeDsibly and the phenom-
enon was of such decided character
that it claimed inetant and universal
attention. The second shock was OBJ
served by few people, being very light
and coming whom all were talking OF tho
first, but the third was 30 pronounced
as to bring the people into the streets
without delay.
