The Maryland Convention. The

/ Baltimore, was nominated for Cover
nor; Charles ). Crothers, of Cecil

I for Comptroller. 1t is a German vict-

ment Of taXables, on which issue he

vancing in price. Furniture is

command the entire retail
trade in good Furniture of the
city and vicinage.
Prices are guaranteed for
the month of August, after
which indications point to con-
siderable advance.

from Laibach give vivid descriptions OF
the scenes of terror during the earth
quakes Of yesterday. The first shock,
shortly after midnight, was SO severe
that the whole population was aroused,
and hundreds ran half naked into the
streets. BY three o'clock the streets
were blocked with carts and carriages in
which the sick and aged, and the chill
A little later vans loaded with furni-
ture could be seen on every side.
Knelo Praying In the Streets.
Men and women carrying clothing and
boxes Of valuables crowded the streets
and often stopped completely the prog
ress of the vehicles. Terrified groups
knelt on the corners and before churches,
praying for deliverance and begging the
priests to pray for them.
Buildings Laid In Ruins.
The barracks, the museum, the dis
tillery and half a dozen other large
buildings were laid in ruins. Scores OF
others were cracked and half shaken
from their foundations. At Fiume the
audience In the Players theatre had just
risen to leave the building when the
first shock came All croweded madly
TO the exits. Many persons were injured
In the struggle, but none fatally. All
night boats filled with fugitives put out
from the Fiume wharves to the shipping.
There Ia hardly q vessel in the harbor
without several Fiume families on board
who refuse to return to land,
Boats Capsized In the Harbor.
During the panic In Trieste a fright

that the shocks followed the lines from

SEARCHING GFoR.ANoTHER BODY
Medical Student Durant Suspected
of Several Murders.

San Francisco, April 16.-The report
that an arm and other remains of
third woman were found in the
Emanuel Baptist church Is in
correct, though search is now be-
ing made for the body of Mrs For
sythe, wife of pressman with the
Schmidt Label comptny, on the supposi-
tion that she was murdered by the same
hand that slew the two girls. The prin-
cipal reason for this theory is that she
was member of the Emanuel church
and frequently attended there She was
known to have been in the company of
man who atte lded the church with her,
and from this and a few other circum-
stances, it was thought she had elop.d.
1t is now thought that Durant the
young medical student, now under ar.
rest, was the man and that he killed her
also.
Suspected of Other Murders.
There are reasons for thinking that
Durant also murdered Eugene Ware a
young drug clerk, VINO was murdered a
few months ago. Those who saw the
scientific butchery displa ed in both
cases, coupled as it was with horrible
savagery, Immediately connected the
cases. Ware and Durant were close ac-
quaintances, and Durant frequently
visited him at the pharmacy He was
seen with Ware on the night of the muir
der. As motive it is said that Durant
was jealous of Ware on account of his
attentions to girl. Ware was stabbed
eighteen times with double edged dirk
and only two of the wounds looked AS
though they had been delivered at ran
dom. Others were about the heart and
abdomen. Furthermore, Ware was muir
dered by left-handed man. Durant
uses both hands with equal facility
