Washington, July 9.-The main topic OF
discussion before the cabinet at the regu-

ton of a special non partisan cou.nisaon
and unless there is another change ia the
plans of the president he will send the

Ground Is Gradually settling To Il

City OF Mexico. July 9.--The report OF
tho government engineers sent to Tehuan-
tepcc to Investigate the earthquakes say
that the hills surrounding the plain on
which the town OF Tehuantepec stands are
of oretaceous limestone, which shows
tendency TO gradually subside TO the condi-
tion of equilibrium producing in this pro-
cess vibrations. Tehuantepec stands on a
superficial formation. the plain consisting
Of soil .disintegrated by the action Of water
from the hills This formation does not
exceed fifteen meters in thickness and no
care was taken in builSng the town TO
carry tho foundations Of houses down 10
solid rock. Hence the earthquake shocks
destroyed or badly weakened many houses
There Is no eridence of the formation OF
any new volcano nor rs Clere any sign OF
the presence OF an extinct one. The COM
mission calls attention to the danger still
existing in the town by reason of the un-
safe condition OF houses which. II the
shocks continue, must crumble.
