soc.
The earthquakes in Chile have
ceased the resultant fires have been
extingulshed, and people of the two
cities, Valparaiso and Santiago, are
taking good steps to relieve suffering,
care for the wounded, and bury the
dead. The period of succor has en-
tered.
Dispatches received from Chile tend
to show that the first estimates of
casualties and material damage had
been greatly exaggerated and that
the people of Valparaiso are becoming
CalmeT.
Il Is still impossible to reach any
correct estimate of the dead and in
jured. The reports from Chile are
most conflicting. A large section of
the country, however, was visited by
the catastrophe of last Thursday.
The number of dead IN Valparaiso
doubtless will run into the hundreds,
and for the entire country probably
into the thousands. The property
damage Is estimated at from two
hundreds to three hundrrd million dol.
lars.
The remOter districts have not yet
been heard from, and efforts are be.
ing made to establish communication,
either by wire or Couriers, with the
provinces.
The statement is made that every
building in Valparaiso has been dam.
aged, and that the city has been de.
scribed as "uninhabitable."
Santiago suffered much less than
Valparaiso. The number of dead in
Santiago is reported at 20.
1t is reported that six or eight
towns in the stricken districts have
been destroyed, but details are still
lacking.

from VaIparaIeo pIreot.

Valparaiso. The fires
which broke out after the earthquake
have as a result of stubborn efforts
finally been suppressed. Dynamite
was largely used to this end.
The streets of the city are con-
stant'y patrolled by military and 9TH
er forces. Many robbers have been
shot and killed on the spot Martial
law prevails.
It is firmly believed here that the
Valparaiso earthquake was more Sc.
we're than that which visited San
Francisco. Losses in life and proper
ty are enormous, but all estimates are
as yet premature.
