OBJ SETTLEMENT IN RUINS.
Storm Plays Havoc With Century-Old
"Place of Peace"


La Paz, Baja California, Sept. s. via
Guaymas, Sept. 14.-La Paz, the old
est settlement of the CALIFORNIA;, is in
ruins. The most terrific storm ever
known has wrought havoc in and about
the old pueblo. Seven lives are al
ready known to be lost and the shore is
s'rewn with wreckage from ships and
boats in the rosdstead. in many places
the water is four feet deep in the
streets and some of the thoroughfares
are channels for raging torrents.
Communication with the outside
world, except by steamer, which has
just stopped at the port, is cut off and
the greatest misery exists, especially
among the poor townspeople, the ma
jority of whom have lost everything
they had in the world.
From the country districts comes the
news that the devastation there has
been great. Without warning the cy-
clone burst on this "Place of Peace,
accompanied by torrents of rain. The
boats along shore and anchored in the
bay were torn from their mornings and
most of them were battered in collision
or thrown upon the beach. The sky
was overcast and many believed the
end of the world at hand, and crowded
the old mission church in a delirium o.
fear.
