LoSAngeleS
After FiUeShOckS

Los Angeles, July 17-Following five
early quake shocks, each of short dura-
ton. that vibrated under Los Angeles
and immediate vicinity yesterday. the
Situation in the city today had resumed
normal conditions.
The tremuIers were confined to a zone
of comparatively few miles. and out
lying towns and cities did not detect
the disturbances. reports indicate.
In the city itself some small damage
was done, too insignificant Tor momeh-
fary estimate OF loss, according to CITY
building Supt. J. j. BacJus. What dam
age there was consisted chiefly of such
supeI1iclals as old chimneys falling, in
securely placed cornices and tower
Ornaments being dislodged in the break
ing Of seams i'll brick walls few
minor injuries resulted to persons, but
these mostly were from accidents due
to precipitate fright or fears.
The first vibration passed at 1905 a.
m, the second at l:37, the, third at
about 1929 p. M, the fourth at 400
D. m. and the fifth at 6;I3 p. m. None
lasted longer than a few seconds, the
Y principal characteristic being sudden
ness, as after d blow.
w The chief effect of the tremblers was
not in its material aspects, but in its
Z psychological effects. Several thousand
workers in Offices and factories, chiefly
women, were so nervous they did not
want to return to their desks after the
first quake and were excused in many
instances until Monday,
Following the two succeeding shakes
there was an even greater scramble to
get out Of buildings, and In some cases
entire stores were vacant, with the
office doors locked.
Possibly the worst damaged building
in the city was the Chester Inn at 1901
North Main street. The two chimneys
dropped off, one going through the sky
light. There is five-foot crack in one
of the walls and another crack an inch
and a half wide in another.
