ing directly north, will head north

Another change is that I will
have a stronger advance party so
that when we get ready for the
final dash, there will be sIedges and
supplies enough. The last time there
was not enough to load five sledges.
The party will also be more COM

ait would be improper, however,

is intended is that as we progress

AT THE CAPITAL CITY
Damage Is SIight-HaIf the Republic

City of Mexico, April 16. - Word
from the center of the great destruc-
ton Of the earthquake of Sunday night
was first given to this capital by the
Associated Press after repeated trials
made during the night and morning
to establish communication with the
stricken districts. AS yet wires to the
section are working badly and no ex-
act estimate of the number of the dead
has been received. 1t is believed, how
ever, that the total death list will be
large.
There We're no deaths in the City of
Mexico, and beyond damaged plaster
and cracked and fallen walls the prop
erty loss will be Insignificant Owing
to the long duration Of the shock this
is considered most remarkable and is
only accounted for by the peculiar
swell-like motion of the earthquake.
which was regular and from east TO
west From messages received at the
telegraph office here up to this time
it appears that the entire southern
half of the republic, including the
lower country, and the mesa belt,
felt the shock.
Messages from as far north as San
Luis Potosi and as far south as the
city of San Juan Bautista, in the state
Of Tabasco, report feeling the shock
in varying degrees. But at no place
mp to date has a loss of life or great
destruction of property been reported
except il the state of Guerrero. From
these intelligences it would seem that
the last earth trembIe was greater In
extent than any that has preceded it
during the last hall century.
