ST. Petersburg, Jan. 5.-Thus far 1t has

ton or denial of the report that Przh"-
valsk and Pishpek were destroyed by the

has been blocked by a landslide. II is
known, however that much property at
Pishpek has been damaged and that two
villages near that town were completely
destroyed.
The greatest anxiety prevails, as Rus
sian biologists are of tho opinion that in
extent and intensity tho earthquake was
more serious than that at Messiua, a
tract Of country so miles long being af-
fected.
