At least 150 persons are dead as
result of the earthquake which tossed
it's way from coast to coast In Mexico.
Slowly the Government is receiving
it's reports from points in rectangu-
lar area whose northern boundary is
less than fifty miles from the capital
and whose southern line cuts across
the lower point of the State of Guer-
erO.
Contrary to precedent, the numbe
of casualties in the State of Guerro
are few, but in Mexico City the list
has heightened somewhat and from the
State of Jalisco many have been added
to the death list.
From scores of villages where ia
talities are known to have occurred
reports have not been received. and
the exact number of dead probably
never will be known. The list of
dead in Mexico City is placed at sixty
three.
In the State of Jalisco the greatest
death loss appears to have been in
Ocotan. where fifty-nine bodies have
already been recovered. .
State, is reported as almost wiped out.
A number of lives were lost.
Not many persons were killed in the
city of Colina, but considerable
amount of damage was done. The
cathedral is so badly damaged that a
very slight shock might cause its col
lapse, and the tower of another church
was toppled onto the roof. The VOL
cano at Colina has displayed cunsider-
able activity but the chief meteorolog-
ical observatory at the capital is
authority for the statement that this
had nothing to do with the earthquake.

The freight car was loaded with

CLEARED

After hearing before Deputy United
States Commissioner Charles Surprise
in Hammond yesterday Stephen Dojan.
the Gary foreigner who arrested
on the charge of cashing a money order
not his own, discharged from
further custody through an ablibi pre-
sented by his attorney, Z. G.. Ballard.
The original case against Dojan was
made by Newman. the Fifth avenue
clothier, who had him arrested for hav
ing cashed in his store money order
not his own. This order was signed by
an * mark. Later the real owner
turned up and weeks after Newman
saw Dojan and thought that he was the
culprit. Then Attorney l. Leon Gould
became mixed in the case and when
the lawyer was charged with not return
ing money to reimburse the loser Gould
was hailed into the Gary city court, bu,
was dismissed.
1t was shown in the commissioner
court yesterday that Dojan was sick In
bed on the date of the alleged crime
and that he can write and would not
have to sign his name with a mark.

that Becker had appointed him bailifi
