Los Ange H., December %.-At 4:25
this morni ssevere earthquake shock
was felt over a large portion of Southern
California, the undulations lasting about
twelve seconds.
The center of the shock appeared to have
been at San Jacinto, a small town in River
side county The business portion of San
Jacinto consists of two blocks of two-story
buildings some of which ara built of brick.
Ten or fifteen buildings were damaged,
chimneys toppled over and walls cracked
and shaken. :
The total damage at San Jacinto and
Hemit, small town nearby. Is estimated
al $4,000. The large tourist hotc, at Hemit
was damaged and the hospital at San Ja-

Johnson block at Hemit fell No one was

In this city no damage was done. though
the shock was particularly Violent. The
houses here are filed with eastern tourists
and they were in many instances terrified
at the disturbances and rushed from their
rooms in fright.
Wild reports concerning the earthquake

Final Action Will Depend on Consular
Reports.
VESSELS WERE LOADED WITHFL0UR
Reports Indicate that the British For
eign Office Acted on the Theory
That Cargo Was Destined
For the Boer Army

New York, December 25 A special to the
Herald from Washington says:
Secretary of State Hay will have a thor
ough investigation made of the reported
seizure ny British cruisers of several car
goes of American flour off Delagoa Bay,
South Africa. Instructions have been sent
to the American consul at Lorenzo Mar
quez, Portuguese South Africa, directing
him to make thorough inquiry, and to do
everything in his power to prevent illegal
interference with American commerce by
either bellgerent.
Ambassador Choate has also been in
structed to make inquiries into the cases
and to make such recommendations to the
British foreign office as the facts in the
case may justify.
What action will be finally taken by the
government will depend on what is reveal
ed by the inquiries. The reports that reach
Washington are unofficial and very mea-
gre. They indicate that the British foreign
office acted on the theory that the flour
was destined for the Boer army, but they
do not indicate what evidence the British
naval commanders had to justify them in
reaching that conclusion. 1t is contended
by the legal representative of the American
shippers that the flour was shipped to bona
fide purchasers in Portuguese territory,
and that the shippers had no knowledge of
any ulterior destination. II 1t can be shown
that the flour was shipped from the United
States for the express purpose of being for
warded from Delagoa Bay into the Trans
vaal it will 'be held by the British govern
ment that the shipment was technically,
under international law, continuous voy-
age, and that the flour was as clearly liza
BILE to seizure as If 1t had been in transit to
the Transvaal.
This doctrine of continuous voyage was
adhered to very strongly by the United
States during the civil war The most cell
ebrated case under it was that of the
British ship Springbok, which sailed from
British pert for Nassau, another British
port, with goods intended to be re-shipped
from that port in another vessel and car
ried into The confederaty. The Srrine box
was captured before reaching Nassau and
was taken to New York, where she was
adjudSed a lawful prize and her cargo
condemned. This decision was upheld by
the supreme court of the United States.
