Violent Selimlc Shocks tn CaliforniaPeople
Warned to Move,
Santa" Barbara, Cal., Aug. 2 The
Inhabitants of tho little town of Los
Alamos, which has been the center ol
seismic disturbances during the past
four days, aro tonight huddled around
a hugoioonllro, waiting (or daylight to
come.' 'Many of tho realdonta have left
for placos outside tho tremor belt.
Those who huvo remained could not
wtilKaukndon their business. Tho town
of Loa, Alamos is situated on the Pacific
Coast railway, midway between Santa
Ynez and Santa Marin, in the long,
narrow valley of tho Los Alamos, 16
miles from tho coast. It has about '300
population. Tho Loa Alamos valley U
from one-half to ono mile wido. Its
population is about 80Q. There are no
brick buildings in the little village,
nna-'thoTdanrngo thus far, is limited 'to
thet.niin. of platter, tho,collpe.of
chimneys, tho breaking of crockery and
glassware, tho falling of tho walls of
thd Pieebytorlan church und 'two store
buildings and' tho demolishing of an old
adcibo building which was seriously
damaged by tho first quake. The dam
ago will not' oxcedd 1 10,000 in tho
opinion' of conservative residents of tho
place; Thoro is not a chimney left
standing )u tho town. Que ' residence
wat moved four indies and split in
opposite cornorfl. Not a building
escaped somo injury, and it is consid
ered mlrnculbus that no one was hurt.
There won a serios of light vibrations
during the day, which culminated in
quite a severe shock at 7:30 P, M.
Fruther Bhocks aro anticipated. The
most severe shock of the entire aeries
occurred at 1 :20 this morning, when
the hlls woro shaken and twisted to
their foundations and tho volley trem
bled and rolled like tho surface of the
ocoan. Great fissures woro run in the
earth, hills appeared in levol valleys,
eprlrksf water opened up In places
that dm been dry ai-d the general to
pograph'? of the valloy was greatly
changed. in, many respect.. , .
Tho disturbance had no general direc
tion, but was what is known as a
"twitter." It was preceded by a
rumbling like that of distant thunder,
which Increased until the earth began
to rockjiand twist, and ,the hills began
to trehxde. With the first Varning of
tho sound of the approaching! 'disaster
tho terror-stricken peoplo rushed into
tho stroets andsought places of safety
in vacant lota, and fields while many
haKtoned, toward fl)o neighboring hills.
Tho tirst vibrations were similar to tho
precodlng disturbances in direction and
effect, but they wore immediately fol
lovtnl by the most terrific shock over
experienced in this section of tho statu.
Tho earth tiemhled and rolled and
twisted, until it wa,s Impossible to stand
oroct, and the terror-stricken peoplo
crouched together In tho darknors, fear
ful that the earth beneath thorn might
open and awsIow them up.
8OLDIER8 ARE IDLE.
Nothing for Them to Do at Shenandoah
Strikers are Orderly.
Shenandoah, Pa., Aug. 2. Twelvo
hundred state troops are encamped to
night op a hill overlooking Shenan
doah. Down in the town, whero riot
ers and policemon fought the bloody
battle last night, all is quiet, and the
indications aro- that so long as the
militia remains the peaco of tho com
munity will not again ho broken. The
riot which caused tho soldiers to bo rent
hero came like a flash and was over
almobt as quickly aa it had started, and
not a single case of violenco has boon
reported since. The tons of thousands
of Idlo men and boys in this vicinity
who have heon gathering in largo num
bers and marching from place to place,
did not repeat their demonstrations to
day, and the, authorities consequently
had little of 'nothing t6 'do. '
Tho arrival of the citizen soldiery
proved to bt- a grett attraction for the
large sjoiy of unemployed, and hun
dreds ormeri and boy came to town to
see the troops. Most of the commands
were on the ground by 10;30 o'clock.
Brigadier General Gobfni of the Tlilrd
brigade, in command of the troops hero,
and hia staff aero on the scene earlv.
The camp is located on a high hill just
outside of the town, and commands a
full view of the town.
Beyond the present 0 of a group of
soldiers here and there on the princi
pal streets, Shenandoah does not show
any evidence of having passed through
a trying ordeal, The large numer of
persons who had been attracted to the
place by the cojilng of the militia left
during the afternoon, and tonight the
town presents its nqnnal appearance.

WOULD PAY FULL REWARD.
Warden Janet Thinks the $1,500 Should he
Paid for Return ol Merrill's Body.
Salom, Or.Augustl. First Warden
J. T. Janos, of tho Oregon ponltontiary,
has created a stir In official circles by
giving out an Intorvlow in which ho
differed radically from hia superior offi
cer regarding tho payment of the re
ward for tho return of Merrill's body.
Ho contonds that tho whole amount
offered for tho capturo und return, of
Merrill, $1,600, should bo paid. Sup
erintendent Lee offered Mrs. Waggoner
$300. Superintendent Leo declines to'
say anything regarding Mr. Jane'
statement, which ia aa follows:
"Sinco thoro is no doubt that tho re
covered remains Are those of Morrill,
thoro should not bo tho slfghtost hesi
tation on tho part of tho Btate in tbe
prompt payment to Mrs. Waggqnor of
tho entire amount named in tho reward.
Tho stato cannot afford to bo niggardly
in this matter.) because of tha unpleas
ant refutation it will recoive, in fact,
has already received throughout tho
country in relation to its treatment of
tho criminal class. The effect on thn
discipline of tho ponltontiary that re
sulted In the return to tho instltation
and the burial of tho remains of one of
tho escaped desperadoes has in .itself
been worth moro than tho amount of
tho toward.
"Thoro is a second, and evongrcator,
reason why the rowurd should bo naid
Mrs. Waggoner tho failuieof tho state
of Oregon to promptly and liberally re
ward tho return of .Merrill's body haa
discouraged many who havo been pur
suing Tracy, and tho result Is that large
numbers havo entirely abandoned the
search for tho remaining bandit, slaca
the hope of adequate roward haa been
largely removed by the state's tardy
action in the consideration of the elaim
presented for the return of Merrill'a
body.
"Hence, for two distinct .reasoaa, I
think Mrs. Waggoner is untitled to tho
full reward i First, because she re
turned Merrill's body, and because of
the beneficial effect resulting in the gen
eral discipline of tho institution; sec
ond, for tho reason that by Its action in
the matter tho atate ta retarding the
search for Tracy. I do not wish to be
understood aa particularly criticising
the judgment of my superiors, but-at
tho same tlmo I havo my own opinions,
and d do not hesitate to expreaa .myself
in tho matter."
MINERS AND POLICE.
One Killed end Many Wounded In a Rlet aa
the Streets of Shenandoah.
Shenandoah, August 1. In street
fighting tonight between a mob of strik
ing minors on ono sldo and doputy
shorlffs and police on tho other, 'Jos

beaten to doath, two borough police
men were shot, one fatally, and more

Ferguson hotel. To an Associated
I'ress reporter ho said ho had asked
Governor Stono to send tho militia.
The governor wired that If tho citizens
of thu town petitioned for troops lie
would send them.
Thu trouble started ubout 6 o'clock?
tonight, when Deputy Sheriff Thomas
Beddall attoti'ptod to escort two non
union workers through tho strikers
lino of pickets. Tho workmen wero
dreasod in their street clothes, but one
of thorn carried a bundle under bin
arm and this aroused the suspicions of
tho strikers. Tho bundle was torn
from him, and when It was found to
contain a blotiso and overalls, tha man
was taken from the deputy andteataa
almost to death.
In the meantime, Beddall opened, fire
on thn mob which had gathered, and
omptied his revolver. Two of tho shots
took effect, one man bolng shot in the
leg and another in thu foot. The dep
uty und thu other strike-breaker war
now compelled to fly foi thoir Uvea, and
took refuge in tho Philadelphia A
Reading railroad station. The station
was soon surrounded by an angry mob
of 5,000, which was becoming store
threatening and demonstrative every
moment.
Joseph Beddall, a hardware merch
ant nnd brother of tho deputy sheriff,
waa soon making his way through tha
crowd In an effort to reach his brother,
and the mob, divining that he was car
rying ammunition' to those Inside tha
station, struck and beat him with clubs
and billies into Insensibility. He
died on route to tho Miners1 hospital.
