BY Associated Press.

by ASSO"lAleO HTeSS.
SAN JOSE, Aug. 20.-Definite infor-
nation concerning the recent earth
quake in Chile, South America, is
anxiously awaited at the Lick observa-
tory
The D. o. Mills observatory, estab-
lished three years ago as an a @junct
to the Lick observatory, is located on
the summit of San Cristobal, overlook
ing Santiago, the capital of Chile, and
the astronomers now at work there
have been members of the staff of the
Mount Hamilton observatory.
DR.. Heber T. Curtis is the astrono-
mer in charge. His wife and c. ildren,
mother and sister, are residing at
Mount Hamilton. Prof. C. D. Perrine,
astronomer in charge at Lick observa-
tory, today said:
1.-THE report of disastrous earth
quakes at Valparaiso has an unu- ual
interest for the Lick observatory, on
account of it's affiliation with the D. o.
Mills observa tory at Santiago.
News is anXiously awaited from DR..
Curtis, who is in charge of the Chilean
station.
"It is hoped. however, from the loca-
ton of the d. o. Mills observatory and
from the compaetness of its telescope,
that no serious damage has ben done,
| provided the shocks there were no
more severe than those of April Is last.

MOSCOW, Aug. 2O.-In an interview
today Alexander Il. Guishoff, who Is
regarded as one of the strongest and
most capable conservative liberals in
Russia, and who many times has been
mentioned as the natural premier in n
conservative cabinet outside of bu-
reaucratic circles, spoke in a despon-
dent tone of the future. He said:
"There can be no doubt of the czar's
good intentions. The great misfortune
Is that he does not comprehend the sit
uation. The influences which hedge him
about are such that it is Impossible
for him to understand what is going
ON the country.
THE fact that the emperor is con-
stantly in the dark regarding the true
state of affairs is responsible for the
hopelessness of the outlook.

coal to supply the gas works, but the
officials of the gas company say they
have sufficient supply to last week.
Carlos Edwards, one of the proprietors
of the Mercurio of Valparaiso. has ar
rived here on horseback from that city.
He confirms the reports that the AL
mendral quarter and the principal ave-
hue of Valparaiso have been trans
formed into heaps of ruins.
When he left the city the inhabitants
were wandering about looking for rela-
tives and friends. The majority of the
inha bitants, he says, have sought
refuge in the hills, in the parks and
along the seashore. The administra-
ton building and the Victoria theater
had disappeared even to their founda-
tions.
The marine arsenal was only slightly
damaged, but none of the private resi-
denCes were habitable. In spite of the
desolation perfect order was maintained
by the troops, which were bivouacked
on the Grand avenue and Victoria
square.
The military ambulances were gather
ing up the wounded and the dead.
When Mr.. Edwards left Valparaiso it
was impossible to determine the num-
Der of persons killed, but, according to
his estimate, the number of lives lost
was small when the extent of the
catastrophe was taken into considera-
ton. At one depot he saw fifty bodies.
The main hotel was standing and all
the guests escaped injury, but Mr.. Ed
wards regards Valparaiso as being un-
inhabitable for the present.

despite himself, to go further and
further on the path of reaction and
repression.
I'm the meantime, i'm my opinion,
there is little chance of a thorough-go-
ing amalgamation of the Constitutional
Democrats and Octoberists. While the
ultimate object Of both parties is prac-
tically identical, namely the achieve
ment of a constitutional monarchical
regime in Russia, their alliances are
totally different. The Constitutional
Democrats have gone too far with the
revolutionists to draw back and the
course of the government is bound to
drive them further and further away
from the methods to which We are COM
mitted."

PEORIA, ILL.,, Aug. 2O.--Willlam j.
Bryan will be indorsed as the next
presidential candidate of the Demo-
cratic party by the state convention,
which will be called to order tomorrow
morning at If O'Clock.
II is expected that there will be
stormy times i'm the convention, but
all debates will lead to the same ending,
which will be the Endorsement of Mr..
Bryan as a presidential candidate.
If his friends are successful I'm their
attempt to gain control Of the conven-
tion he will, of course, be approved.
If the men to whom Mr.. Bryan has
said that he is opposed are successful
in retaining control of the party or
ganization they will indorse him.
The friends of Mr.. Bryan have been
positive in their statements that If the
convention does not call for the resig-
nation of Roger G. Sullivan as national
committeeman from Illinois they will
fight with all their strength against
the passage of any resolution indors-
ing Mr.. Bryan.
If they are not able to control the
convention, and the indications tonight
seem to be against them, they will be
unable to prevent the Endorsement from
going through.
Both parties are tonight making
claims of being able to check the con-
vention tomorrow. Sullivan claims that
he win have fully so per cent of the
delegates and that he will carry the
convention from first to last without
the slightest trouble.
The Majority Rule league, composed
of those men who are in touch with
Mr.. Bryan, claim that this statement
of Sullivan Is absurd and say they will
have control of the situation. They
decline, however, to give figures.

Bryan, according to his friend, Judge
Owen p. Thompson of Jacksonville. de-
dires no instructed delegates from IL
linois in the next Democratic national
convention unless National Committee
man Roger Sullivan is repudiated by
tomorrows state convention.
Judge Thompson made this state
ment Immediately upon having arrived
in the city and that he had received
such message from Mr.. Bryan. When
asked today for copy of the dispatch
Judge Thompson said:
81 cannot give out copy of themes
sage, as L contains other matter which
should not be published. I can, how
ever, quote verbatim all that 1t con-
tains relative to the Instructions. This
is Oppose instructions unless Sullivan
repudiated.' That was all there was on
the subject"
"What is Mr.. Bryan going to do
about it If Mr.. Sullivan is upheld by the
convention and instructions are given
for Mr. Bryan despite his protest?"
'"They viii never do such a thing as
that" replied Judge Thompson.
"Do you suppose that any man will
attempt to compliment Mr.. Bryan with
instruction when he has been in
formed by Mr.. Bryan that it is not in
lib pOWCl W SO1AiPiiihShI Wv
not believe it,
"Now, then,' continued Judge
Thompson, coming down to politics
practical in the extreme, when Mr..
Bryan is elected where will these fell
lows stand who poked their instructions
in his face after he had in effect de-
clared that he would regard them as
an insult? There may be pies to be cut
when Mr.. Bryan is in. Who knows?
Will the fellows who showed instruc-
tions on him get any of these pies?
No. sir; no pie.
1.-THE followers of Mr.. Sullivan are
strong on pie and they will not stand
out long when they see that they are
going to starve."
Mr.. Sullivan merely laughed when
asked what the convention will dc
about indorsing Bryan.
"We will not oppose any instructions
in favor of Mr.. Bryan. We never have
thought of doing so. If delegates come
to the convention instructed for Bryan
they will have to vote that way,

matters, as are private persons, and
the greatest energy is being devoted to
getting In supplies for the destitute.

the coast have been lifted above their
former sea levels.
The troops are maintaining perfect
order and the military ambulances are
carrying the wounded to the hospitals.
Hospital and medical supplies are be-
ing sent down to Valparaiso from

Because of the interest in the county
Republican convention at Venice, busi-
ness at the county court house and

stahdstill for the next two days, and
although the building will be open and
all offices accessible, the heads of de-
partments and all but the office clerks
will be at the front fighting for their
friends.
To say that everyone in the court
house is interested in the election
would be putting the condition in a
mild form. Practically all the Office
holders are candidates for renomina-
ton and all their clerks are working
with might and main to insure their
employers success, for it means their
positions in the days to come.
SO that Tuesday and Wednesday will
be off days at the court house and
there will be but two Judges there to
handle the cases set for hearing.
Although it has been so unanimously
announced that District Attorney Fred
ericks will be nominated for reelection
by acclamation, yet Capt. Fredericks
will be at the front and many of his
deputies will be with him to see that
the acclamation comes in proper form
and well backed.
Line Up for keyes
That will cause a desertion of the
district attorneys office with the eX-
! ception of few clerks. The clerks of
every department, or at least every
one who can be spared, will be at
Venice seeing that their friends and
political workers whom they control are
in line to vote for Charley Keyes for
the office of county clerk.
The clerks of tax collectors, assessor s
and auditors offices will be at the front
| to help out for their bosses.
From the sheriff's office practically
the entire staff will get in the fight
early and stay late. All of them will
be working for Sheriff White except
