San Francisco Has Suffered Be-
fore From Visitation.
In 1868 Much Damage Was Done
and Many Lives Lost In
the City.
THE CHARLESTON QUAKE IN 80

New York, April 19.-The Pacific
coast has been so frequently visited
by earthquakes that 1t was deemed
unwise, until few years ago, to
erect tall buildings in San Francisco.
II was only with the advent of mod
orn' steel construction, which was be-
lieved to render tall buildings safe
from the earth's tremors, that sky
scrapers made their appearance on
the Pacific coast. In the last 80 years
over $50 earthquake shocks have
been recorded in San Francisco. The
most severe were in 1868 and 1898.
In 1868 much damage was done to
the city and many lives were lost.
The disturbance of 1898 did not
result in the loss of life. but caused
much damage to property. This shock
occurred at 11:43 p. m March 81,
and she houses all over the city were
shaken to their foundations. There
