The full extent of the disaster
which centered upon the provinces )t
Atacama and Coquimbo, became more
fully known today with the reopen
ing of telegraph communications in
these two provinces.
The victims numbered 1900 so far
as now known, but it is expected the
number will be increased.
That part of Chile shaken by the
earthquake of Friday night, Nov.

Tropic of Capricorn to the south
about 1900 miles.
The most northerly town of any
consequence mentioned in dispatches
is the important port of Antofagasta.
The most southerly are Victoria and
Valdivia, below the large south
Chilean town of Conception.
Between these points, cables speak
of Caldera, Guasco, Chanaral, Copia-
po, Vallehar, Coquimbo and Talhaca-
ano as having suffered.
Coquimbo is port of considerabl,
Importance. Talcahuano is the port
of Conception. The others, though
centers and, most of them, ports Of
some South American note, have
never figured largely in world news.
With the exception of Victoria, all
are on or near the coast, which sug-
gests that the tidal wave must have
been as much or more responsible
than the earthquake for the cncr-
nous damage done.
Valparaiso, the greatest Of Chilean
coast towns and the sea outlet for
Santiago, the capital is not referred
to as having suffered on this occa-
sion, though few years ago. it was
nearly wrecked, with enormous loss
