wrecked the entire Pacific coast line
Of South America Thursday night.
So widespread and so great is the
disaster that 1t was impossible as yet
to gather more than the most frag-
mentary details, but enough is Known
to make it sure that the catastrophe
ranks second only to that in San Fran
cisco. AS was the case in San Fran
cisco, famine threatens the tens Of thou
sands of survivors Of the earthquake.
The earthquake caused such terrible
immediate damage that all coramunica-
ton was stopped between Chile and the
remainder of the world. The most ter
rible rumors were a1oat in Argentina
and Brazil as to the extent of the Chi
Lean disaster, some reports being to the
effect tina not only has Valparaiso
Deer largely destroyed but that he
earthquake has caused sweeping loss in
life and property from one end OF Chile
to the other. According to some of these
reports, Chile is said to be a land of
wreck, deSolatiOn and death from the
southern to the northern boundary.
Ships Lost in Iinrbor.
tOllOWln2 the nfSC SHOCK, Wnlcn came
without warning and was of terrific
force. a tidal wavs swept in from he
ocean. Many vessels We're borne aloft
by it and hurled high and dry ashore
where their wrecks are now lying. Just
above the city steamship lies near
ly a half mile inland, her plates rip
ped and torn by the rocks and her hull
half buried in the sand.
The damage to the shipping is be-
yond computation. At the time of the
catastrophe the harbor was filled with
shipping from all ports of the world,
many of the vessels being laden with
rich cargoes. More than half Of them
are ashore and most of the latter it
will be impossible to float again. Scores
of seamen lost their lives as the great
tidal wave swept the vessels ashore,
