SOUTH MEXICO SHAKEN
FROM ACAPULCO ACROSS TO
VERA CRUZ
The Town Of Frehimilic Inundated.
Very Heavy Damage Caused by
Shocks at Simla

CITY OF MEXICO, June 16.-Between
10 and II o'clock last night earthquake
shocks were felt in this city and in all
Southern Mexico, from Acapulco tc
Vera Cruz. They were especially violent
in the town of San Marcos, state OF
Puebla, where the shocks were both
vertical and horizontal, and were ac-
companied by subterranean rumblings
seconds, followed later by another
shock lasting ten seconds.
Acapulco reports a shock both vertical
and horizontal, preceded by loud noises
underground. Curiously enough the
movement was experienced across the
whole country at about the same time,
the hour reported differing only a few
seconds. No damage is noted, but there
is considerable alarm.
The town of Frehimilc, near the city
Of OaXaca, was inundated suddenly, sew
eral persons being drowned. Rains are
very heavy in that direction.
INDIAN SHAKERS
SIMLA, June 16.-The reports that all
of the buildings at Shillong have been
destroyed are confirmed. Mr.. McCabe,
the British resident deputy commits
sioner, was killed by falling house, and
the English ladies and children are suf-
fering intensely from exposure. The
towns Of Sylhet and Cherrapunji were
leveled to the ground and whole villages
subsided. The losses are so great that it
is feared a severe scarcity is inevitable
in several populous districts.

The Ex-President Takes a Degree at
Princeton

PRINCETON, N. j., June 16.-Prince-
toms 150th annual commencement day
exercises take place at 10:30 o'clock to-
day. Alexander Hall was thronged with
visitors who attended not less in expecta-
ton of seeing an honorary degree con-
ferred upon ex-President Cleveland than
to see the customary exercises.
On the speakers rostrum President
Patton and Mr.. Cleveland occupied seats
of honor.
Deafening applause greeted Mr.. Cleve-
land when he arose to be presented
as a candidate for an honorary degree
DR.. Patton conferred the degree upon
Mr.. Cleveland, who spoke few words
in acknowledgment of the honor confer
red. Mr.. Cleveland said: Il cannot for
bear the expression of my profound ap-
probation of the honor conferred upon
me and confession of my gratitude for
the warm welcome which greets my in
itiat into the brotherhood of Prince
ton university.
when l recall the high place that
Princeton occupies among the universi-
ties of the land, her proud history, her
bright trophies won on the field of higher
education, her vital relation to the pa
triotic achievements which have helped
to make the nation, am proud of the
honor which l have received at her
hands. AS I recall the sincerity and COR
diality which accompanies this honor
think that another tie has been formed d
which binds me with closer affections
and deeper feelings to the home where I
expect to spend the remainder of my
days.

THE HOFFMAN MURDER
UNDER INVESTIGATION BY THE
CORONER
Some Evidence Of Figel's Crookedness,
But Little Light Is Thrown on
the Tragedy

| SAN FRANCISCO, June 1s.-The
Hoffman inquest was resumed this morn
ing with Chief Of Police Lees upon the
witness stand. The letters offered by
the witness before adjournment yester-
! day, which had been taken from the pre-
son Of deceased were then read to the
jury. Many of them had no bearing
whatever upon the case, and none tended
to elucidate the mystery,
Isaac Rafael testified to having sold
some clothes to Mrs. Hoffman shortly
before the date Of the tragedy and hav-
| ing seen Hoffman on the Saturday pre-
ceding his death. He was then in the
best of spirits, apparently, and spoke OF
his wife and her aftiiction of deafness
most kindly.
Chief Lees, being recalled, stated that
after learning of the tragedy, he called
UP Figel by telephone to see whether or
not he was at home, although the suicide
theory seemed to be the only one tenable
at that time. In response to demand OF
the Coroner, the witness produced the
bank books of the firm, which had been
kept by Figel and turned over to him.
He stated that, at the instance Of an at
torney, he had asked the bank to fix UP
the firms accounts and had receipted for
them. They were then read to the jury
and showed that Figel kept two accounts
and had deposited large sums to his own
account during January and February
amounting to over S14,0O0
At his own request NJ. M. Rice wasre-
called for the purpose of explaining hi
testimony OF the previous day. He stat
ed that since he had been on the stand hi
had seen Figel for the first time and was
satisfied that Figel was not one of the
| two men whom he had seen standing II
| front of Hoffman'e office on the evening
of the tragedy.
| John Lauer, the drayman, testified
| that he stood in front of the store with
| Hoffman on the evening of June 1, and
that his employer borrowed $40 from
him. Hoffman told him that he was
waiting for Figel and did not appear to
be nervous or excited.
| James Maloney stated that he cav tvs
men arguing in front Of Hoffman's Of
flee about $3.50 o'clock that evening and
heard one say to the other, Come in
| and 1 will settle with you The othe.
! replied that there was nothing to settle
but both went into the office.

GARY SNUBBED
No Reason Given, But the Cause Is
Known

known
SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, June 16.-An un-
usual incident occurred in the Supreme
Court when Appellate Judges were as
signed. Judge Gary, famous for having
presided at the anarchist trials, was not
assigned. Judge Magruder protested
in the following strong language: "The
distinguished services of Mr.. Justice
Gary for nearly thirty-four years de-
serve more fitting recognition. Wher-
ever modern civilization has extended
it's light and it's blessings his name
stands as the synonym for law and or
der. With his life in his hand he has
stayed and suppressed the onsets of the
lawlessness and disorder, and I enter
my solemn protest against the slight
thus put upon this just and fearless
Judge"
Chief Justice Phillips, in reply, said
with the fullest recognition of those
qualities the majority of this court re-
served to itself the right and discharged
the duty of selecting other judges for
that place, equally learned, industrious
and able, who can and will with equal
earnestness and as high sense of JUS
tice discharge these duties"
