At Ramleh. 11 persons were killed
nd 26 Injured, while at I.udd 30
persons were Injured.
The report from Nahlea slated
that most of the easualtlea took
place when a baiaar collapsed.
In Jcrii alem, a material damage
waa extensive. The amail dome in
the holy sepulchre church, occupy

upon aa snrred for many centuries,
waa tindly crocked. Only one death
in recorded in the city proper, that
of a aervant at Government house.
Twelve persons are known to hare
been Injured.
The escape of the Inhabitants of
Jerusalem seema largely due to the
fact that the ahork waa not aevere
enough to bring down the com
paratively aolid buildings of the
city, although cracked wall and
ruined interiors are numerous. Nev
ertheless, the quake .caused intense
alarm and the people thronged the
streets and remained there for a
long time, fearing to return to their
homes.
Outside the capital, the loss of J
life undoubtedly was greater, owing
to the flimsy construction qf many
dwellings which collapsed upon In
mates before they were able to
scape. In this way 90, houses in
Abudis near Bethany, crumbled, and
