San Fbancisco, April 19. In one re
spect only is the later reports of the
earthquake in this state mitigated there
were no lives lost. Damages to property
cannot be estimated, however, and it is
perhaps the second worst visitation of
the kind that has yet been recorded on
the continent of North America. Vaca
ville is by far the worst sufferer and pre
voua report are confirmed in this respect.
Fire was greatly dreaded in Vacaville,
as the reservoirs of the water works were
so badly damaged that there was no
water, to speak of, left in them. Every
brick bnilding . was wrecked or badly
damaged, and the wooden - ones were
racked and twisted out of shape.
DIXOU SET- OJI FIBE.
In Dixon the damages were aug
mented by fire, which broke out in Du-
gan's, Brown's and Coleman's buildings.
Dugan'a drygoods store, a brick build
ing, was crushed in by the falling of the
south firewall of the Masonic building,
while north firewall of the latter build
ing fell on J. Itockford's brick butcher
shop, completely crushing it in. At
this . juncture fires broke out. The
flames. were soon extinguished, but not
until considerable damage had been
done. The north firewall of Eppenger
& Co.' 8 brick, corner of . Main and B
streets, fell on an adjoining frame owned
by John Rehneke, crushing the frame
like an eggshell and sever y injuring Mr.
Rehneke. The firewalls, both in the
front and back of the Ross building,
fell in, doing -considerable damage.
All the firewalls on the north side of the
Old Corner saloon building, corner Main
and B streets, broke, and fell, crushing
and destroying the porch..- All the build
ings in town having brick chimneys re
port damage, nearly all being cracked,
while several were thrown down. Goods
In .nearly all the stores were thrown from
the shelves and counters, while all over
town '- doors were wrenched and torn
down from their hinges, being thrown
into the street or into the buildings.
', BURIED IS ' THE DEBRIS.
In Vacaville, the brick residence of
Carl M.Gate8, Lagoon valley, is badly
wrecked.. Rev. O E. Felker, San. Jose,
is injured badly. A hired man was
badly injured. The brck residence of
Dr. Dobbons, near the town, is badly
wrecked. Miss Lou Dobbins and Miss
Portia Hill were rescued lrom a pile of
brick uninjured. The building owned
by Mrs. Kittie Moore which, is a total
loss, was occupied by Joseph Donovan,
and W. G. Davis In the structure
Horace Patten and Thomas Rogefb slept
in the second story. Bennett's building,
just, west, piled over.it,: crushing the
roof and imprisoning the sleepers, for
tunately injuring neither. Raleigh Bart
lett, of the Enterprise, latter slept in the
building, baying a very narrow escape.
He. was slightly injured by falling plas
ter. V. H. Hacke, plumber and tinner,
was slightly injured. ..
. MABY8VILI.E SCARED. . . .
In Mary (mile, and vicinity, the' dura
tion of the shock was from seventy to
ninety seconds. The vibrations . were
north of northwest and south of south
east. " It was the severest and longest of
any ever experienced in there,, but did
no damage Buildings were swayed,
bells rang and clocks struck. The result
was a general scare, which kept many
timid ones awake until daybreak.
. WRITER'S DAMAGES GENERAL.
In Winter's there was a general des
truction. . Every building in town is
damaged. The loss will reach at least
(50,000.- No one was hurt. The con
tents of the stores and dwellings are all
piled on the floors in promiscuous heaps.
The shock was from east to west and
lasted about five or six seconds. "
SOUNDEST SLEEPERS AWAKENED.
In Nevada, Cal., two sharp shocks oc
curred here at 2 -.50 p'clock. The first
was of brief .duration, but the second,
which immediately followed, lasted
eight or ten seconds, awaking the sound
est sleepers and creating a widespread
alarm among timid people. The vibra
tions extended from northeast to eouth
west. - . .
8TOPPED AND STARTED A CLOCK. '
In Merced two distinct shocks were
felt here. The first occurred at 2:47,
stopping the dock in the El . Capitan
hotel. .'.The second shock was three min
utes later, starting the clock again. No
damage was -done. Stockton and Grass
Valley reports are to the effect that no
damages resulted, but . the scares were
rather large sized ones.. The damages
amount to nothing in San Francisco,
but the shock was severe enough - to
arouse people frm sleep.-' The vibra
tions lasted some seconds. -
VACAVILLE DAMAGES.
A Vacaville - special says the
citizens have made figures on the total
loss in town by the earthquake, and es
timates place it at from $150,000 to $200,
000. At some points only one shock was
felt, but where they , exceeded two in
number the shocks became confused.
Vibrations of the ehocke were from north
to south,. and from east to west, and
were accompanied at some points by
rumbling noises.

Brown's Valley, Minn., April 19.
Disgusted homeseekers are returning
from Sisseton reservation by the dozens.
All located claims, but say tney are
utterly worthless. All the good land
was taken before they got there.
Favorable to Republicans.
Salem, Or., April 19. The supreme
court today decided to hear the argu
ment in the attorney-generalship man
damus proceedings on Thursday. The
case was to have been argued this morn
ing, but attorneys for petitioners were
not ready, , and aeked a continuance,
which was granted. The attorneys on
the other side objected to the delays aa
they wanted a decision before the aetn
ocratic state convention met today
This action in the case is favorableto-1
the republicans, since Friday is the Hst
day on which democrats can complete
nominations according to the Australian
ballot law.
Still following; Oleo.
Philadelphia, April 19. The supreme
court yesterday decided that the fine of
$100 imposed upon J. Otis Paul for the
sale -of oleomargarine contrary to the
state law of 1885, is not a violation of
the interstate commerce act. - As a large
number of similar fines ' have been im
posed as a result of- prosecutions 'con-
Ictucted against oleomargarine-sellers, by
the-National Dairyman's Protective As
sociation, the decision is one of import
ance. The oleomargarine bad been im
ported Jfsm outside the state in 10-pound
packages, which the court finds were
broken and sold in smaller portions,
thereby becoming part of the common
mass of property within the state. The
court's 'decision upholds the constitu
tionality of the prohibitory statute, and
declares it is a police regulation necea
eary to protect public health. 7

The cupidity of the fisherman on the
Atlantic const is'rapidly destroying near
ly every kind of sea food npon which the
people hav9 been accustomed to rely.
The complaints of the men who control
the fish markets are long and loud that
the supply of fish is much less for this
season than it was the last The lobster
factories on the .. Maine coast are all
closed, and one has to go down as far
east as Prince Edward island to find . a
lobster with a shell on hia back at a fair
irice. -The herring factories have be
gun to exhaust the immense schools of
herring that gather around Grand Ma
nan and work their way into the Bay of
Fundy .
. The mackerel have been so scarce dur
ing the season, from the wholesale de
struction of schools, that a- single mack
erel is today more expensive than a
pound of beef. The bluefish are still
plenty, but there are signs that even this
species of fish is beginning to be preyed
upon by the methods employed by the
fishermen in'catching them. The fisher
men say that 'they are obliged to use
these destructive, methods in order to
protect themselves from the encroach
ments of those who refuse to keep to the
old methods, and so the wholesale de
struction goes on without restraint. -
The time has come when if the sea is
to yield to us much longer the delicious
food which makes life on the Atlantic
coast a delight to the people of the west,
as -well as to the natives, different
methods of catching the fish, and a pro
tection for them in the close season,
must be established by law. for which
the proper enforcement must 1 be ar
ranged. The necessity Is urgent. There
la' not a single species of fish used for the
table which is not now in great danger
of extinction. The salmon and the ahad
have been protected, but protection'1, is
equally demanded for the cod. the her
ring the totwter and the mackerel.

MADRID PLOT TO KILL

; : Remove the Boy King; .

A SENSATION THAT'S ABOUT ALt.

of
Madrid, April 19. A most decided
sensation was created today by making
public the further confession made by
Munoz to the magistrate M ho has charge
of the case. Munoz is the anarchist
who was betrayed into the hands of the
police by Delboche, who informed
the authorities tliat Munoz was the
prime mover among the anarchists, and
supplied him and others with bombs,
promises to result in the extirpation of a
dangerous class in Spain. Munoz has
already made a confession that has
caused the arrest of a number of his ac
complices, and it is thought that before
the police are through with him all the
leading anarchists of Spuin will be under
arrest or have sought safety in, flight.
He has today told the officials that at a
secret meeting of the anarchists lots
will be drawn to decideMvhich numbers
should kill the boy king. of Spain. The
statement caused much anxiety, and
the precautions to guard against an at
tack upon the king have been greatly
added to. Several anarchists under ar
frest confessed an attempt was to be
made to blow up the royal palace, but
none until now acknowledged a direct'
attempt upon the life of the king would
be made. With the knowledge that
such a conspiracy does exist, the author
ities will be able to guard against it.
The public does not know anything be
yond that Munoz revealed the existence
of a plot to kill the king, but it is
thought that in a very short time every
one connected with it will be taken into
custody: It is also thought that Manor -will
make a clean breast of his connec
tion with the anarchist movement, andV.
by this means escape the life sentence
impending over him. s

of the Cheyenne and Arapahoe reserva

was generally supposed. It would make
two Oklahomas, or five Rhode Islands.:.
It contains 4,000,0(10 acres. After the -Indian
allotments are token out there'
will remain 3,500,000 acres, or onough to -give
100 acres each to 22,000 settlers out-'

taken by the' Indians, and many of
the boomers will be sorely disappointed
in the character of their land when they ,
attempt to cultivate it. .
