Rome. Nov. IA severe and pro-
longed earthquake shock was felt here
at ASS this morning. Many houses

PLY the first shock seems TO have end
ed the subterraneous disturbance with
out serious damage. Some idea OF the
alarm created may be gathered from
the fact that prisoners broke into open
revolt and tried TO escape. Troops
from the neighboring barrack were
summoned and the prisoners were driv-
en- back at point OF the bayonets. The
vatican buildings were severely shaken.

CARRIE CUNNINoHAM's STORY
She Says Durrant Told Her He Encoun-
tered the Murderers.


San Francisco. Nov. Miss Carrie
Cunningham. the reporter who testified
in the Durrant trial that Durrant had
told her he saw Blanche Lamont muir
dered in the belfry of Emanuel church,
and who said that Durrant showed
her an envelope containing a state
ment to be opened anter he was con-
victed, has made public her side Of
the story. She says that when she
visited Durrant at the Jail he told her
a remarkable tale. with the idea that
she was to be a witness for the de-
fense. He said he had been sworn to
secrecy by the murderers. but felt that
If Miss Cunningham first gave an ink
ling of what the story was, he would
be released from his oath. Miss Cum
nipgham agreed -to--this and Dnss=&nt Z,
told her the following story:
while L was fixing the sun burners
of Emanuel church. / heard a noise. 1
followed the sound to the belfry and
ascertained that Blanche Lamont was
murdered on the second story. l en-
countered the murderers, promised
never to reveal what i had discovered
and rushed down stairs to George
King. / had an appointment with
King and 1 feared he might go search
ing the church for me. I was much
distressed over what 1 had seen and 1
felt nausea ted: but did not send King
for bromo seltzer because I wanted
the medicine. 1 sent him out of the
church in order to give the guilty men
a chance to escape"
Miss Cunningham says that Durrant
told her the murderers exercised an
unaccountable influence over him and
swore to spirit his mother away il he
told what he had seen. He said that
he had given the statement to his at
torneys, but they had decided not TO
use it. He said that the story related
to Miss Cunningham was practically
the same as that contained in the
statement, with the exception that the
names of the murderers and a few de-
tails were omitted.

COULDN'T SEE HILL.
The A. II. u May Order a General Strike
on the Great Northern.


the Great Northern.
st. Paul, Mimi. Nov. 1.-For some
days past a special committee appoint
ed by A. r. u. delegates Of the Devils
Lake country one month ago have been
seeking a conference with President
Hill of the Great Northern in regard TO
the alleged breaking of his agreement
with them after the great strike on the
system in May. 1894. They made re-
peated attempts TO see Mr.. Hill. burt
without success, and finally late to-
night, to-day having been the limit set
them by the government, they issued a
long statement giving their grievances
and the correspondence they have had
in their attempt to confer with Presi-
dent Hill. They announce that in view
of the treatment the. employees have
received and the refusal of all attempt
ed conferences with the end of rlghting
of such grievances the special commit
tee will leave tonight for their homes
and the public need not be surprised
to find the Great Northern system tied
up as tight as a drum fromt St. Paul
TO the coast.

Holders of Second and Third Mortgage
Bonds Are Kicking.

New York. Nov. LIN view OF the
published statement that certain inter
ests in the Northern Pacific have ap-
proved the appointment of II. NJ. Gal
loway as receiver. the statement is
positively made that the committee Of
second and third mortgage bonds do
not approve OF Galloway's appoint
ment and will not. They will oppose
any additional receivers: they do not
think that a New York receiver is
necessary and believe the solution OF
the problem Is the appointment of one
receiver each by the judges of the
Seventh. Eighth and Ninth circuits.
This the committee will contend for.

A solution of Citrate of
Magnesia in which we use
water from the celebrated
Pipestone Springs.
The impossibility of pro-
ducing a stable solution of
Citrate of Magnesia with
water fromvarying sources
and the further fact that
city water, when distilled
even under a high pres
sure, refused to part with
its odor, induced us to con-
duct a series of expert
ments, which resulted in
the discovery that Pipe
stone water, from its pecu-
liar naturalization, was
admirably adapted for
combination with Citrate
of Magnesia.
For protection we have
adopted a pipe and stone,
the imprint of which, in
red, will appear on each
bottle. Look for it.

was, therefore, totally unprepared for
the jury to find her son guilty In 20
minutes. When the verdict was an
nounced the whole weight of her sor-
row seemed to fall upon her and she
gave way to uncomfortable grief.
BY common consent District Attor-
ney Barnes is given most of the credit
for convicting the greatest murderer
that was ever tried in California. While
the police department did excellent
work, IL is believed that Mr.. Barnes
address had much to do with removing
any lingering doubts from the minds
of the jurors, II at any time there was
a juror who was. not convinced OF
Durrants guilt.
The case win be appealed to the su-
preme court, and IL Is expected that
nearly a year will elapse before a decis-
ion will be obtained. General Dickinson
took exceptions to three features OF
the district attorneys argument to-day.
He also took an exception to the
judges charge.
The people of this city are almost as
much excited tonight over the verdict
in the Durrant case as they were when
the horrible Emanuel church murders
were first discovered. For months the
Durrant case has been the all-absorb-
ing topic here and every phase OF the
most sensational trial In the history of
the Pacific coast has been followed
with close attention. While some few
of Durrant's friends profess to believe
1t was impossible for him ito commit
the crimes. the general verdict is he is
guilty and should hang. The verdict
was announced Just in time for the
evening papers and in an incredibly
short time extra editions were on the
streets. Crowds gathered about the
bulletin boards in various parts of the
city and general satisfaction was ex-
pressed that the arch-criminal of the
century had been convicted.
