RICH GOLD STRIKE.
One Shot Yields Nearly $75, 200 of
Almost Pure Ore in Hatfuls.

One Shot Yields Nearly $4,000 of
Almost Pure Ore in Hatfuls.
Downieville, CAL, May 26.-Between
$75, 1000 and $1OO, 900 in almost pure
gold was loosened by blast in the FL
dorado tunnel at Allegheny, this coun-
ty, last evening. Hatfuls of gold with
particles of quartz attached were picked
from the floor of the tunnel. This find
promises to eclipse even the Sixteen
to. One and the Tightener, both near
neighbors. H. L. Johnson, owner of
the Tightener, bonded the Eldorado two
weeks ago for $25, 900. The Morning
Glory mine, nearby, owned by Rohrig
brothers, has just broken into rock of
immense value, big slabs sprinkled and
scanned with gold being exhibited. The
owners refuse to say what their strike
broke, but it is said to be $4,000.
An old fashioned rush is on to Alle-
gheny from all directions, and men OF
every vocation and of every age are
flocking into the district to stake
claims.
H. L. Stark, consulting engineer fol
George Wingfeld, the we'll known mil.
lionaire mining man of Goldfeld, was
there some time ago trying to buy and
consolidate the Tightener, Sixteen-to-
One, Eldorado, Morning Glory an6
other rich properties, but Mr.. Wing
fields wealth proved inadequate. Ex-
citement is running high.

CENTRAL STATES
PaniCS and Many Small Fires Follow
in Wake of Earthquake.
Five States Report Feeling Jar-Act-
ual Damage Not SerIous-SchooI
Children Flee in Alarm From
Swaying Buildings and People Seek
Refuge in Open.

Chicago, May 27.-All of Illinois
and four other Middle Western states
experienced severe earthquake shocks
yesterday morning. That the quake
was general in this section of the coun-
try is shown by reports from Iowa,
Wisconsin, Missouri and Michigan.
While no serious damage was reported
beyond number of fires due to de-
stroyed chimneys, the shock spread
terror in many places, and number of
panics in schools and other buildings
resulted from efforts to flee from what
seemed to be impending disaster.
The time of the earthquake at vari-
GUS towns in this state was between
8:15 and 9:45 o'clock, and the duration
of the shock differed in distant locali-
ties. In some cases two distinct trem-
blors were felt, the first being brief
and the second lasting several seconds.
At Peoria the earthquake began at
$3.50 O'Clock and lasted for four Sec
onds. The trembling of the earth was
felt in Champaign and Urbana at $3.50
o'clock Dixon told of three minutes
of shocks in that city and vicinity as
late as 40 o'clock.
Other cities in the state reporting
severe shocks were Sterling, Galena,
Freeport, Pontiac, Fairbury, Ell Paso,
Pekin, Peelo, Tampico and Erie.
A shock lasting Is seconds was felt
at Cedar Rapids. Burlington and Du-
buque also suffered slight disturbances.
Early reports covered territory
from Springfield, ILL.,, through Daven-
port, Ia, and Janesville, Wis.,, north
to Muskegon, Mich. Reports of the
vibrations, but recording no material
damage, were received from the fol-
lowing cities:

WAR AT SEATTLE.
Fair Exhibitors Will Resist Efforts to
Detace Grounds With Shops.

Detace Grounds With Shops.
Seattle, WASH, May 25.-war to a
finish with an appeal to the courts,
through injunction proceedings, if ne
cessary, was decided upon Sunday by
the A. Y. P. exhibitors who are re-
sisting the efforts of the exposition
company to erect booths on grounds al
ready allotted to various states, Ore
gon being the first to precipitate the
fight against the unseemly disfgura-
tion of its beautiful grounds.
To carry this determination into
effect, an organization to be known as
the Exhibitors club, was formed at
the Oregon building. Colonel J. A.
Filcher, executive commissioner for
California, was elected treasurer
chairman, and W. H. Wehrung, presi-
dent of the Oregon commission, was
elected secretary. Attorney General
Crawford, who had been summoned to
advise the Oregon commission as to its
rights in the controversy, took the po-
sition that the exposition authorities
had no right to erect booths on the
Oregon grounds, or on any other
grounds assigned to different states,
counties and the government. Encour-
aged by this view of the situation q
resolution was unanimously adopted at
the meeting firmly protesting against
locating any booths on any grounds
without permission.
Meanwhile the exposition authorities
are standing pat and say they will
erect the 100 booths planned. They
promise to incur as little friction as
possible, but declare their authority is
supreme, and they must have their
way. Should the Exhibitors club be
upheld in the courts, and it now seems
sure the case will reach the courts, il
will devolve upon the exposition au.
thorities to establish special place
for the booths, as the exposition au-
thorities themselves declare that the
booths should not be installed in the
court of honor, thus marring that
bright feature Of the grounds.
