Note and Comment.
Oakland, Cal., May 1.— Regard­
ing phenomena in various locations
of the state caused by the recent
earthquade, H A. Greene, of Mon-
tcray, writes to Governor Pardee as
follows:
“In tbe Salinas Valley a redwood
tree was recently found at a depth
of 261 feet by men engaged in sink­
ing a well. This is stated on the
authority of H. Jacks, of Monteray.
“ Rev. M. Mestress, also of this
place, visited Moss Landing after
the quake. He reports many hap'
penings, one being that a large sand
dune near the shore has sunk 60
feet below the sea level.
“ J. B. Cooper, ex-Representative
of this county in tbe state legisla­
ture, took a launch on the day of
the disturbance for San Francisco.
A few miles off shore there were
thousands of strange fish floating
on the water, none of which were
known to old fisherman on the
boat. This was in Monteray Bay
where the water is very deep.
