BERKELEY, Thursday, April 10
Prof. George Davidson, of the Univer.
sity of California, formerly connected
with the United States GeOdetic Sur
vey, said last night:
"The earthquake came from the north
to south, and the only description am
able to give of it's effect to me is that
it seemed like a terrier shaking rat.
| was in bed, but was awakened at the
first shock / began to count the sec
onds as | went toward the table where
my watch was, being able through much
practice to closely approximate the time
in that manner The shock came at
5:12 o clock. The first six seconds were
the most severe. From that time on 1T
decreased gradually for about thirty
seconds. There was then the slightest
perceptible lull, the shock continued
for sixty seconds longer, being slighter
in degree in this minute than in any
part of the preceding minute and a
half There were two very slight shocks
which | did not record at 5:l7 and
5:27. At $3.50 p. m. there was sharp
shock of several seconds.
Regarding the cause, | maintain, as
| always have, that it is the earth cool
ing on the inside The cooling brings
about contraction, which is bound to
create a readjustment of the earth s
surface.
81 have heard talk of the eruption
of Vesuvius having connection with
this disaster, but that is rank nonsense.
NV seismograph was twisted out of
shape by the shock, so that have no
record from that
GAS to telling whether there will be
a repetition of the earthquake, l can,
not more predict that than ! could
have predicted the one of today

SEATTLE, April 2O.-The status of
San Francisco as the distributing point
for the bulk of the China, Japan, Ha-
waiian and other Oriental mail, includ-
ing the Philippines, will suffer through
the disaster which has overtaken that
city. Seattle, which has already been
sharing half the burden of handling the
Australian mails and part of the Philip
pine and Oriental service, will be the
distributing center for the present time
of all the Oriental mail.
This means, according to the men at
the postoffice conversant with the sub
iect, the practical doubling of the mail
tonnage oceanward from this port, with
its attendant increased requirements
for clerks at the Seattle office.

NEW YORK, Thursday, April 10
The Times today prints a statement
from Ralph Stockman Tarr, professor
of dynamic geology and physical geog-
raphy, at Cornell University, on the
subject of the San Francisco earth
quake. He says:
1t is too early to pronounce a final
opinion upon the nature and cause of
the San Francisco earthquake, but from
what has been said it will be seen that
it is probable that this shock is the re-
suit of movement along one or more
fault lines in the course of the natural
growth of the Coast Range, which geol-
Ogists have long known to be still in
progress throughout the entire extent
of California.
''That the coast ranges are growing
is proved by numerous evidences.
There are appraised shore lines at vari-
Gus points along the California coast,
proving recent uplift. The very Bay
of San Francisco is the result of a
geOlogically recent subsistence of this
part of the coast which had admitted
the sea into the gorge that the Sacra-
mento river formerly cut across the
coast ranges. This forms the Golden
Gate and in the broader mountain val
ley behind the sea has spread out to
form the bay.
Whether the center of greatest dis
turbance of the present shock is in or
near the city cannot yet be told,
though the meager reports so Tar re-
ceived indicate such to be the case. If
it is, San Francisco is in danger of
future disasters. -

Scientists Discuss
Frisco Earthquake
PROFESSOR HAYS SAYS THAT
EARTHQUAKE HAS NO CON
NECTION WITH VESUVIUs.

WASHINGTON, Thursday, April 10.
The possible relation of the earth
quake in San Francisco to the eruption
Of Nesuvius formed the subject of dis
cussion among scientists in this city to-
day.
None of them was willing to advance
any argument which would tend to con
meet one with the other. In fact, the
officials of the geological survey de-
clared that there was no relationship
whatever between these two disturb
ances.
Prof. c. Ii. Hayes, professor of geol-
ogy Of the geological survey, said:
1.-The San Francisco disturbances are
due to the slipping of the surface rocks
to adjust themselves to changed condi-
tions inside the earth. They have no
relationship whatever to the eruption
of Vesuvius. The interior of the earth
is not in a molten state, except in the
region of volcanoes, but If you 60 down
distance of sixty or seventy miles the
rocks are practically in a fluid state
from the immense pressure ON top of
them. They act like liquid and they
float to adjust themselves to changed
conditions.
CAUSED BY FAULTS.
but when you come nearer the sur
face, where the strata are hard and
brittle, the slipping of a part of the
earth S crust along the line will give
you Just the conditions that attended
the attack in San Francisco. The old
earth, take it as whole, is a very UNI
easy body and is in state of constant
ly changing equilibrium. When the
foundations dip down there has to be
an adjustment of the surface, like the
breaking up of ice on river, and a re-
adjustment of the blocks to each other.
This is evidently what has just hap
pened on the Pacific Coast. y
Prof. Willis Moore, chief of the
weather bureau, declared it as his opin-
ion that there was no relationship what
ever between the eruption of Vesuvius
and the San Francisco disturbance.
Director Wolcott, OF the geological
survey, said: -
TREMORS ARE FREQUENT.
"'The Vesuvius eruption is purely
volcanic phenomenon, but the San Fran
cisco earthquake is much like that OF
Charleston. S. c., in 1886; that is, 1t oc-
cured in "a district that is more or less
faulted, and San Francisco is in re-
gion that has been visited by earth
quake shocks. Although most of them
were very minute, being recorded only
on the seismograph, the records Of
twenty years show many of these
shocks each year at San Francisco. The
evidences of geologically recent fault
ing are extremely abundant throughout
the greater part of California, and es-
pecially the western section, IN the
Coast Range, and it is probable that
most if not all, of the earthquakes
which visit that region are the result,
more or less, of extensive movements
along the fault planes.

SAN FRANCISCO, Thursday, April

SAN FRANCISCO, Thursday, April
10, via Oakland.-Lieut. Charles G.
Pulls, commanding the Twenty-fourth
Company of Light Artillery, was blown
up by a charge of dynamite at Sixth
and Jessie streets and was probably
fatally injured. He was taken to the
military hospital at the Preside. He
has a fractured skull, several bones
broken and internal injuries.
Lieut.. Pulls placed a heavy charge OF
dynamite in a building on Sixth street
The fuse was imperfect and did not ex-
plode the charge as soon as was ex-
pected Pulls went to the building to
relight it and the charge exploded while
he was in the building.
The injured officer is graduate OF
the artillery school at Fortress Mon,
roe, Va. He is 80 years old, single and
a native of Chicago.

Controlling Nature.

Everybody knows that of late wears
natural forces have been wonderfully
subjected to mans need. We are
dazzled by the spectacular achieve
ments in steam and electricity, but are
likely to forget the less noisy but no
less marvellous conquest of animal and
plant life. Horses are swifter, cattle
heavier, cows give more milk and sheep
have finer f1eeces than in days gone by
In plants the transformation is even
more marked. People now living can
remember when the number of edible
fruits and vegetables was far less than
at present and even those that could be
grown were vastly inferior to what we
now have. For example, our parents
knew nothing of the tomato, except as
curious ornament in the garden.
Sweet corn was hardly better than the
commonest field sorts. All oranges had
seeds. Celery was little known and
poor in quality. In the. flower bed the
magnificent pansy has replaced the in
significant hearts ease from which i,
was developed, and the sweet pea in all
its dainty splendor traces its origin to
the common garden vegetable.
This progress has been made in spite
OF the great tendency manifested in all
plants and animals to go back to the |
original type. 1t is indeel battle to :
keep strains pure and up to the stand
ard they have already attained, let
alone any improvement. The practical +

A. c. Burgess Comedian.

MIR. A. G. Burgess, the comedian of
The Boston Ideal Opera company, has
won for himself reputation which
might be envied by many older men,
bers of the profession. Born and edu-
Gated in Mankato. Minnesota, he began
his professional life with the Andrews
Opera company, which at that time was
the best on the road. With that COM
pany Mr.. Burgess played his first parts
and quickly worked his way to the
front and his success as comedian has
been phenomenal.
The Olympia Opera company, the
Gordon-Shay, the Doshon and the Lyric
companies all have claim on Mr.. Bur-
CESS, as he has helped to make their
names famous.
Mr.. Burgess has travelled extensively
and through the South has won the
title Of "the star comedian of the

postoffice Boxes.

Many persons believe that postoffice
box rents accrue to the postmaster, but
such is not the case. The box rent be-
longs to the postoflice department and
box rent must be accounted for whether
collected or not. In this connection it
may be appropriate to add that the
department has made new ruling that
will interest all who rent boxes at the
postotfice. 1t requires the postmaster
to collect box rent at the commence
ment of each quarter or the box will be
closed and the mail placed in the
general delivery. The order reads as
I flows:
"BoN rents must be collected at the
of each quarter for the en-
tire quarter, but no longer. Ten days
before the last day of each quarter
postmasters are required to place bill
ION Form 1887 or 153S.) bearing the
date of the last day of the quarter in
each rented box. If box holder fails
tolrenew his right to his box on or be-
fore the last day of quarter the box
shall then be closed and offered for rent
and the mail will be placed in the
general delivery"
