CHOKING SULPHUR FUMES
Peculiar Phenomenon Follows Mexican
Earthouake.

Mexico City, April 20.-Communica-
lions have now been opened with all
the important points in the section
most affected by the earthquake. The
latest reports indicate that the loss Of
life will not reach. 100, but many per-
sons have been injured and the prop
erty loss is very great.
One peculiar phenomenon which
has just been made known is that
after the first great shock the air was
filled for many miles with thick,
sickening sulphurous odor. Even the
water in the streams was made sui
phurous This caused great distress
to the survivors.
There are many speculations as to
the cause Of the peculiar freak of ma
ture and some consider it as a proof
that the earthquake had it's origin in
some subterranean explosion. For
this reason considerable anxiety will
be felt until news is received from the
sections surrounding the active vol
canoes of Colima and Jurrello.
