Shock Which Destroyed Santiago the
Longest Ever Recorded.

Santiago, Chile, Monday, Aug. 20
6 p. m.-Only now can the serious
ness of the catastrophe begin to be ap-
preciated. The greater part of the
modern houses are unsafe for habita-
ton and the authorities have organized
a special corps to pull down the totter-
ing buildings. In most of the streets,
it is not safe to walk on the pavement
owing to falling debris.
Santiago resembles a camp. The
public squares and the principal ave-
nues are crowded with people sleeping
in the open. All kinds of carriages and
cabs have been requisitioned to sleep
in, or even under them.
The night of August s, was rem
dered dreadful by flashing lightning
and pouring rain, the electric cables
and wires swapping as a result of the
constant, strong earth shocks which
occurred all that night. causing the
greatest CONSERVATION which was
heightened by the pealing Of the fire
bells announcing the breaking out of
fires in various quarters of the city.
Each earth shock was followed by
walls and prayers from the people who
were kneeling in the rain and mud.
The first great shock lasted four
minutes and fifty seconds. Such q
long shock had never occurred before
in the memory of any inha bitant of
Santiago. It caused the bells of the
churches to ring, pictures swung out
from the walls and there was a great,
heaving motion of the ground. Ex-
perts say that the only thing which
saved Santiago from complete ruin
WAS that the motion was circular The
principal shock was from Valparaiso
to Santiago and Meripilla, with its
center at Limache- The last two mem

TURN IN AETNA SUIT.
Company Restrained From Maturing
Series Stock Now.

An application was made yesterday
in the case of W. r. Hogsett VS. the
Aetna Building and Loan association
in the district court of Sherman coun-
ty for an injunction to restrain the
company from paying the full par
value Of their shares to matured stock
holders owners of series stock. The
controversy is between holders of the
two classes of stock issued by the com
pany prior to the passage of the
building and loan association statutes
of 1899. denominated series and guar
antee stock. The series stockholders
contend that all the money paid in on
subscriptions by the guarantee stock
was pledged to mature the series stock
within the period Of ten years, and the
company says that it Is necessary to
use all this money in order to mature
such series stock according to the
contract The guarantee stockholders
maintain that such a construction of
the contract is unlawful and inequit-
able. The court granted a temporary
restraining order, and set the appn-
cation for Injunction for formal hear
ing on September 7. The guarantee
stockholders are represented by R. B.

SUGAR WAR IS ON.
Price Has Dropped IS Cents on the
Pacific Coast

San Francisco, Aug. 21.-The Ex-
aminer says:
After five months competition be-
tween the Western Sugar refinery and
the California and Hawaiian Sugar Re
fining company the price OF sugar has
dropped from s5.15 to $3.50 In New
York the price is $3.50, while at the
Missouri river it is So.
The $4.30 price in the local market
means the ruling figure for all the Pa
cific coast states. This figure is so low
that southern and other coast beet
sugar makers refuse to sell here and
are shipping all their output to the
Missouri river. Their fight however
is TO control the Pacific coast field.
It is estimated the IS cent reduction
will AFFECT 15O 900, 900 pounds and that
there viii be a reduction from 27 to
80 cents per 100 on 35O.00O,OO0
pounds
