EARTH TREMORS
 STRUCK IN EAST
Seventeen States in Path of Shocks--No Casual.
 ties Were Reported

(Copyright. 1885. by United Press)
 New York, Nov. 1.-(UP) .--The earth shook beneath l7 states and all of eastern Canada early today, routing thousands fro mtheir beds in panic, but causing little darn- age. All cities of eastern America, where upward of 20,Oo0,O00 humans live in close proximity--New York, Chicago, Boston, Toronto, Fhiladel- phia, Pittsburg, Washington, Mon- treai--felt three to four distinct shocks that caused their great buildings to sway and windows to rattle.
 Not One Life Was Lost
 Hundreds of newspaper offices and police headquarters were flooded with frenzied inquiries and for Q few minutes a major disaster seefIi- ed in the making. But complete re- ports showed that in all the vast area, extending south from the Canadian provinces of Quebec. On. tario, and New Brunswick to Wash- ington, and eastward from the At- lantic seaboard to Chicago and Dee troit, an area with population of approximately 4o,0oo,0oO, not a life had been lost nor had there been more than the most minor damage.
 Were Four Distinct Tembl0rs
 Seismographs recorded four dis tinct temblors, the first at i:05.6 a. m. (E. s. T), the second ct i:06.4, the third ct l:Q7, and the fourth fraction of second later. But some communities felt only one, some two. In eastern Canada the quakes were accompanied by an ominous roar, but elsewhere this phenomenon was not reported
 The quakes were felt through all the Canadian maritime provinces and New York, Massachusetts, Con- necticut, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and West Virginia, and in parts of Illinois, Ohio, Indiana. Michigan, Wisconsin, Maine, Vermont, and New Hampshire.
 Tn scores of cities and towns, i ranging downward from New York city with it's 6,000,000 population to isolated cross road villages, house. holders ran into the streets in night clothing. Window panes rattled and some collapsed, furniture slid across floors, pictures fell from walls. Nothing To Fear
 Scientists quickly announced there was nothing to fear. Some said the quakes were due to a disturbance along the Logan geologic fault ex- tending south from the Saint Law renee to Alabama. Others said that in all probability great rock mass on the bed of the Atlantic some 300 miles oil the New England coast had collapsed. But all agreed that the temblors were isolated and not likely to be followed by more.
 The Rev. Joseph J, Lynch, s. J., head of the physics department Of Fordham university, said the temb- lcrs were .surface shocks which never did great damage.
 Father Lynch and other scientists said the quakes were not connected with the long series of temblors that caused further loss of life and prop erty damage in Helena, Mont, yes- terday. They were unanimous in re-

NEW ENGLAND IN PATH OF SHOCKS.
Hotels in Boston, Custom House TrembIed--From
 One to Eight TemblOrs
BY HENRY MINOTT Limited Press Stan COrrespOndent.l


 Boston, Nov. l.-(UP)-An earth- quake shook every New England state early to-day.
 No casualties or serious damage were reported, but thousansd of sleepers were awakened, pictures and mirrors were bounced from walls, dishes were shattered, ct least one city was thrown into darkness, and the temblors played many Q Halloween prank.
 It was the eighth strong eerth- quake experienced in Boston since the turn of the century.
 From one to eight distinct shocks were reported in various localities, covering from five seconds to four minutes.
 High seas we're kicked up by the temblors, according to reports from coast guard craft off the Massa- chusetts shore.
 Custom House Tower swayed
 Tn Boston the first shock was felt ct 1:02 c. m. The 4e0-foot ctis- tom house tower was seen to sway as pedestrians watched the red aviation beacon atop 1t.
 Home-golng Halloween merry. makers were startled by the sharr staccato of what they niistook fol an explosion. Then buildings afls automobiles and trolley cars sud denly became iittery. They con tinued to tremble as shock fol lowed shock. ss4Fs <, .s.. {. \ | At Boston City hospital hun dreds of patients were awakene | s@-.@a~

 Mussolini has not given the slightest hint of doing anything of the sort. He angered Britain iila- mensely yesterday by frankly state ing his "contempt" for the nations who are trying to punish him. and piedgin ghis people to resist to she utmost.
 Atmospherc CIouded
 The atmosphere was not aided by the anti-English manifestation by young fascists in Rome, which, al- though not serious in themselves. worried the Italian government 90 much that 1t placed 100 guards around the British embassy to avert real trouble.
 The League machinery meanwhile was geared for action and by to~ morrow, the throttling internaticn- al boycott on Italian trade probably will have been clamped down.
 The military situation in Ethi- opia was static, except for scattered engagements. The Italians, how- ever. after weeks of preparation, are ready to occupy Makale, the hey city in the north, which cornmazans one of the country's best roads leading to the capital.

 RECOVERY PACE
Second Quarter of 1885 Shows Gratifying
 Results

Montreal, (UP)-Canadian bus siness, as 8 whole, maintained it's upward trend during the second quarter of 1895, statistics available here reveal.
 The iron and steel industry, f. nance, building, electric power output, general employment and external trade all were on high ef level than at the same time last year. Carloadings, which represent a wide range of activities in many Industries, also wereg reater than in 1884. The grain trade remained slow and sales of livestock were down, but prices of livestock were higher than year ago. General prices, too, were above 1884 and constituted Fundamental influ- eace making for recovery.
 Wheat Exports DR
 In the agricultural sphere the fundamental influence is the grain trade. Although exports were low CT than last year in quantity, the value received was greater. For the ten months of the crop year wheat exports declined from 1884, 828,OO0 bushels in 1884 to 128,722,- 900 bushels this year.
 On the other hand, the value of exports rose on the same com- parison from $96,218,000 to $106,- O65,OOO. Sales of livestock for the first 25 weeks of the current year were below 1884, but this was due to a large decline in hogs, while cattle, calves, sheep and lambs showed gains.
 Butter Also Slumps
 In the dairy industry, production of creamery butter declined from 24,79O,O0O pounds in May, 1884, to 23,i40,000 pounds in May last, but production of concentrated milk increased from 10,27O,OOO pounds to 11,941,000.
 In the steel-coal group, produc- tion of pig iron and steel was up, coal output declined. and coke held its own. Production of pig iron, as between May, 1884. and May, 1885, rose from 3S,000 to 45,- 900 tons: steel ingots from IT, 900 to 73.000 tons; coal declined from 1,017,O00 to 920.00 tons; coke fell off slightly from 1S5.1S1 to 184,573 tons.
 Motor Output up In the associated automobile in- dustry output rose from 2,161 to 2O,76 5units. In the construction industry, building permits showed a gain from $2,942,00O to $4,7os.- 900.
 Employment, electric power and carloading returns, all reflecting conditions over wide area of business, indicated activity at higher level.
 After making allowance for sea- son influences, bank debits - the most representative financial in- dex--showed gain of 17 per cent.
 Fluctuations in prices have been slight, but the level Is still above last year. The index of wholesale prices in May last was 72.3, as compared with 72.5 In April and Ill in May, 1884. Retail prices stood at 7S.S in both May ani April, but both were above the May, 1884, figure of 7S.5.
