San Francisco, June 5.—A 12 2«
this morning San Francisco and the
cities about the bay were shaken by
a severe earthquake. The shock was
the severest since the disastrous trem-
blor of April, ISO« The shock was
not violent enough to sever electrical
connections, and although the entire
tire department was placed in readi­
ness to tight any tires that might fol­
low. there was no blaze of any con­
sequence.
As far as can be learned at this
hour the damage was limited to the
breaking of dishes on the shelves and
the destruction of a few tottering
walls >n the burned district.
In the residence district a number
of people ran into the streets in their
night clothes. Along Golden Gate
avenue a genuine panic prevailed. Sev­
eral hundred women rushed to the
street in their night clothes. Three
women were treated for nervous
shock, but no one suffered injury, as
far as reported.
The earthquake was in the form of
two sharp shocks, the second follow
mg while the earth still trembled
front the first. The coming of the
shake was announced by the rattling
of windows and the swinging ot
chandeliers. Then came an adrupt jolt
and then a lessening tremble, to be
followed by another quick jolt and a
gradual lessening of motion.
Oakland, Berkeley, Alameda and
other bay cities reported a shock ex
actlv like that felt here.
Reports so far received indicate
that the shake was felt at least as fat
south as Santa Cruz, 125 miles down
the coast.

LABeL ALL FRUIT,
PUSH WOdK ON SALEM LINE.
Growers Find Several Ways ol Obeying Trains Will Be Operated Over
New Law.
In October.
Salem—Now that the fruit shipping
season has begun. growers are con
fronted with the necessity of comply­
ing with the new law, enacted by
the last Legislature, requiring that
every box or package of green fruit
shall be marked with the name and ad­
dress of the grower and packer. Here
at Salem there are various methods of
complying with the law, and some fruit
is going out with nu mark at all. The
only fruit shipped thus far ia straw­
berries. packed m small boxes, 24 in
a crate.
Some growers stamp their
names and addresses upon each small
box, so that the consumer will hnow
by whom the fruit was grown, and so
that if there is anything wrong with
it the dealer wilt kuow «here to make
the complaint. Others mark the name
and address only upon the erate.
lu
almost all instances the stamp placed
upon the box or crate gives only the
name and address. and does not say
whether the person whose name «(«(warn
is grower or packer, or both. The see
tion of the new law bearing on the sub­
ject is as follows:
•‘Any person, firm, association or cor­
poration engaged in growing, selling or
(tacking green fruits of any kind within
the State of Oregon shall be required,
upon (lacking any such fruit for mar
ket. whether intended for sale within
or without the State of Oregon, to
stamp, mark or label plainly upon the
outside of every box or package of
green fruit so packed the name and
postofiice addresa of the |»erson, firm,
association or corporation paehing the
same; provided, further, that when the
grower of such fruit be other than the
packer of the same, the name and post
office of such grower shall also promt
nently appear upon such box or pack
age as the grower of such fruit.”
