 These announcements were made yes terday by General Manager Harry Dln- zIyer' of the Montgomery Far, "ho left last night for New York city on one of his periodical business uips 'o the Eastern markets.
 In speaking of the proposed expan- sioy and enlargement of the pig oe- nortuent store, MT. Danziger said It was another evidence of the progress of Montgomery and the confluence that large investors have in the future oi AIabama's Capital City. The Moht- gomery Fair forms a part ot a great svndicate of department stores Tn 'he larger cities of tho country. rms syn, djcste is backed by unlimited capitai ana the fact that these successiul mer- chants are planning to greatly increase their business here, already one or tne most important in the State. speaks III eioouent terms of their conhdence III this city's future development.

SHOCK SHOT FROM COAST
 TO COAST IN Y MINUTES! - Straight Through Earth at Rate of 15,532 Feet Per Second---No Danger in Eastern Part
 of Continent, Says Expert.

Garrett P. Serviss in New York Ameri-
 can.
 All the indications as to the cause ot the San Francisco earthquake point to a local origin. It is probable that the slip, or fracture, in the underlyins rocks which led to the disaster occurred deep beneath the surface (perhaps sew eral miles), and not far from the Golden Gate
 From this center the shock spread ir all directions. If it had been situated a considerable distance out at sea there might have been a destructive sea wave thrown upon the coast. The fact that there was no such wave indicates that the centre of disturbance was close D the coast. and possibly under the land perhaps at some little distance from the seashore.
 San Francisco, being situated close to the point of origin of the shock ana possibly directly over 1t. felt the tuli force of the earthquake, the vibrations being transmitted straight to the foun- dations of the city.
 A more accurate record of the times would probably somewhat reduce tn ? calculated speed; yet 1t is not likely that more than twenty minutes were consumed by the vibrations in crossing the continent
 Earthouake vibrations are transmit ter through the earth as whole anu also along It's surface, where they oe- come horizontal waves. In this case the Rocky Mountains and lhe coast ranges interposed an oo- staclo to the progress of the sur face undulations For this reason the vibrations recorded at Washington un- doubtedly were transmitted dlrectiy through the body of the earth, passing under the bases of the mountains. Through Earth in Seventeen Minutes
 By comparing the recorded times of the occurrence of the first shock at San Francisco and of the beginning O. the vibrations at Washington, we cal deduce the speed with which the earth ouake wave rushed through the solld globe The first shock at san FFancls- co was at 5,13 q. m. Paclhc tune Ihdt would correspond to S;l3 a. H'' hasterI, time The first vibrations reached Washington at S:30, Eastern time Con- seouently, the actual time elapsed while thev were crossing the continent was seventeen minutes
 This corresponds to a speed of lT6 4-2 miles per minute. or l5,53Z rect per sec ond. assuming that the total distance trsversed was 5000 miles, and that tho times as given in the dispatches arc accurate. This IS somewhat dooNS LII ! highest recorded speed of earthquake waves hitherto known although they have been found traVellng more than 10. 900 feet per second.
 Vibrations taking a still deeper course through the earth would, as tbe diagram shows, emerge in the At lantjc ocean. Very deep ones might reach the coasts of Europe and be re- corded bv seismic instruments there. They would probably, however be very weak at that distance.
 In the other direction the shocks must have been transmitted to the Pa cific ocean with considerable violence, and ships a sea may possibly have mo-

will be removed to 1t and then the
 builders will begin on the other build
 ings.
 We do not expect to lessen our busi-
 ness during the progress of building
 said MT. Danziger. 'In fact, 1t Is be-
 lieved that our customers. seeing the
 spirit we expect to display in giving
 Montgomery an even greater depart ment store, will cooperate with us during the period we are in temporary . quarters"
 When the Montgomery Fair is al home in its handsome new building the numerous departments will be enlarged Already nearly every article sold In
 first class department stores is hand
 led by the big establishment but It If proposed to make 1t a store that would be a credit to New York or Chicago. Much of the success of the big de partment store has been due to tht business acumen and progressive spirit of General Manager Danziger who has
 had charge of 1t since Its opening, ant
 his associate, Mir. Ashley. They have grown with the business and their metf
 ods have appealed to the Montgomer, buying public.
 The best evidence of the success oi
 these two young men 1T the management of such ar important and stupendous en' terprise is the fact that the establish
 ment has outgrown its present quarters the largest occupied by any mercantile establishment In Montgomery.

chutes, interior telephones. automat tic fire sprinkler, passenger and freight elevators. reception rooms for custom CTS and adequate floor space for each of our departments.
 The general plan for the store will provide for one of the most complete
 establishments of it's kind in the South and 1t will be a distinct credit to Mont gomery.
 While the Montgomery Fair forms part of the great New York syndl- cate of stores it is in itself separate ard distinct business. The alliance | with the syndicate merely enables tho Montgomery establishment to buy goods in train load lots and to other
 wise cooperate with the thirty or more department stores of the big cities of | the country. The officers of the Mont gomery Fair arc Charles B. Castner. Nashville, President: Harry Danziger. l General Manager and Leon Ashley, | Cashier.
 Something of the ifportance of the | great department store to the business l life of Montgomery will be gained by | the statement that it employs 155 men | and women. With it's increased facili- | ties for doing business the establish | ment will greatly enlarge it's various departments and as a consequence many more employees will be added. MT.

two weeks has shown, there seems to be a general seismic disturbance in many of the centres of earthquakes and volcanic phenomena, and 1t is probable that the disaster at San Francisco Is to be ascribed to this broad general con- dition of the earth's crust arising from its slow shrinkage rather than to direct connection with any particular out break. s2cA, Sc the .eru.n:ioi ae sKa-S-, vius.
 The earth Is like a patient afflicted with a ideep-seated disease affecting the whole system and liable to manifest itself at various points on the surface. When 1t becomes particularly violent 1t breaks out with eruptions wherever the local conditions are such as to in- vite them.
 The extreme sensitiveness of the globe to internal disturbances. and the astonishing distances to which they are conveyed, have been made known by the Investigations of recent years, since seismographic instruments have come into use.
 Like Touch on Hair-Trigger
 When, as is the fact we have evidence that shocks can be transmitted directly through the great S.000-mile ball of the earth, 1t Is not difficult to understand that such shocks may act like a touch upon a hair-trigger setting off expio- sions whose preliminary conditions have been long before preparing m consequence of the strains in the slowly settling and shrinking crust of rock.
 The shrinking needs to be but very slight, and absolutely invisible as meas ured by the decrease In the diameter of the globe. A irop or a slip of a single inch in the underlying rock would be sufficient to account for all the destruction wrought in San Fran. cisco, and indeed, for a much greater calamity. provided that the part of the earth's crust affected by the clipping and shrinking Is of considerable ex. tent. Fortunately 1t Is probable that the worst was over after the first shocks on this occasion.
 If a great volcano were in action nearby. the earthquake might be cor- tinued and repeated for days, but the present disaster. like that of Charles. ton in 1888. would seem to be due. as already indicated. to a slip, or Jar of local origin. although perhaps sympa- thetc with the general disturbed state of the globe.
 It may be remarked that the moon, which was near the full when Vesuvius burst forth. is now approaching the new" phase, when again its tidal pull unites most effectively with that of the sun.
 But the tidal forces of the sun and the moon cannot in themselves produce The preliminary condI- tions must first be established hy changes occurring in the earth itself Then tidal distortion might act like . inger on a trigger.

ticed them, and they may have reached Hawaii or even the eastern coast of Asia. They must also have spread north and south.
 l No Danger on Atlantic Coast.
 In regard to the question of danger on the Atlantic coast from great earthquake shock in California Ga question that has been raised on &C., count of the phenomena noticed in Washington, 1t should be said that 1t is practically impossible that any se- rious effect of that kind could be pro- duced. The most destructive, and pos- sibly the most powerful, earthquake on record was that of Lisbon in 1T55. but while on that occasion a sea wave was sent across the Atlantic Ocean in nine and a half hours and more or less severe shakings were experienced as l far away as the British Islands, the serious damage was confined to the city of Lisbon and its immediate neighbor- boom.
 This is incomparably the greatest earthouake that California has ever known, and in the destruction of life and property the greatest that ever occurred in the United States. It should prob ably be placed in the second class of such phenomena, as they were divided by the late Professor Shaler.
 The first class comprises all earth
  ry can stand against them, and that the ground is shaken 'as in sieve The second class comprises earthquakes that shake down all but the strongest buildings and often leave long rents m the rocks and creviees in the ground. The third class of earthquakes Is oaly strong enough to damage weak build ings and bring down a few chimneys.
 California Danger Point.
 California has always been recog- nized by geologists as one of the dan ger points of the globe with regard lo earthquakes, although the peril ha" never been considered as very great for the shocks have never been com parable in violence with those expert enced In Japan or Italy or Asia Miner
 But the Pacific coast Is marked from Alaska to and beyond the southern DOT der of the United States by line or more or less extinct volcanoes nhE Mount Rainer or Tacoma and MouAt Shasta. and wherever there are vol canoes, even though they may be ln- active. there Is always a possibility or earthquakes.
 Not only are volcanic eruptions ana earthuuakes liable to occur simultahe- ously, but 1t often happens that greas explosion of volcanic energy In ono part of the world Is closely preceded or followed by severe earthquakes Tn other parts. which may be thousands of miles distant.
 Tn tba case of California we should look for a connection or It's earth ouakes with the state of the volcanoes either along our own Pacific coast or on the groups of volcanic islands in that ocean. particularly in Hawaii. In the severe earthquake of 1888 in Call fornia such a connection appeared t0 he shown by the outbursts in the same wear of the Hawaiian volcanoes, Xii lauea and Mauna Loa
