The New England and Middle States Shaken Up. ‘THE RESIDENTS OF NEW YORK AND VICINITY FRIGHT ENED—REPORTS FROM VARIOUS LOCALITIES WHEBE THE TREMOR OF THE EARTH WAS PERCEPTIBLE. ‘Yesterday afternoon an earthqu'ke shock was feltin many places in the New England and mid- die states, the most violent agitation appearing to have been in the neighborhood of New York. Washington appears to have been on the southern- most Umit of the region affected by the aisturb- ance, while Portland, Me., was on the northern dorder. Some persons in this city report having observed a slight sock, but the vast majority of People were ignorant of the eartuquake until they got the newspapers this morning. Telegraphic re- ports from New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Delaware, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont and Maine, last night, gave accounts of ‘shocks felt tn different towns in'those states The ‘shock was felt a few minutes after two o'clock. The duration Of the shock seems to have varied in aif- ee ee but the average length of time dur- ing which the shock or tremor was felt does not Appear to have exceeded ten seconds. NRW YORK AND VICINITY. In New York and vicinity considerable excite- ment was caused among the people, who were startled by a sudden subterrauean tremor, accom- panied by a rumbiing sound or prolonged detona- Uon. People in New York ran Into the streets ter- ror stricken only to discover that all their neigh- bors were rushing out amazed and panic stricken Uke themselves, Especially was tnis the case in the tenement districts, and there was great terror for a while among the Polish Jews on Division, Or- chard, Bssex and Hester streets, and the Italiin colony on Mott and Crosby streets. The people in ‘some Cases remained In the streets for several min- utes before they recovered from theirfears. At the Cpe Malan h of the United Staves Signal Service in the Equitable building the time of the earthquake and its duration were noted by the observers. The first intimation of the earthquake was a low rum- bilng sound like the mutterings of distant thuailer. It was immediately followed by a shock as tlat of a violent explosion, which caused the building: to} quiver, although Jt id not ahake perceptibly. “The Tuttling continued for about eight seconds and was Sccoinpanted by the rumbulng’ sound, which grad- ually died a way. Asa sit ar fict connected with the phenomena It 43 stated that persons on the elevated railrouds did ‘Rot feel the shock, and It was entirely imperceptl- bie in the water about New York, there being’ no earthquake wave such as is usual.y observed. In Central park the animais in the menagerie were evidently frightened by the sock, and many of ‘them were seea to treble as if tn fear, while they remained perfectly still for some time after 1t oc- curr A street car in Avenue B was Ufted trom the track, and several horses are reported to have been thrown down. ‘The policemen on the Brooklyn bridge report that the shock was distloctiy felt there, and the great towers at either end oscillated visibly, while ‘tae bridge itself rocked us If struck with a’ burri- H cane. Along the river fronts the piers were shaken | as 0 by a heavily loaded truck passing over them Ia Brooklyn the earthquake was felt very gen- erally throughout the city. Along the river front, and in the e@ustern district the shock appears to have been leavier and of Jong duration. At various polats about New York and Brooklyn: doors were slammed, dishes and bottles were shaken from shelves, door bails were Jangled, clocks were Stopped. and other like evideace was given of the violence of the stock. The shock at Coney [sland appears to have been more severe than in the city, and there was much excitement among the pleas ure seekers there. Slang the Atlantic coagt on Long Island the shock was very violent, and the vibrations seem x4 (0 increase i power’as they travcied exstward, Reports trom Nyack, Port Jervis, Peekskill, und other points show that the eastern part of the'st ste Was affected. ‘Iwo distinct shocks were fell at Peekskull, NEW JERSEY.

N. J., lasted about 10 sec- onds, and created oonsiderabie alarm. Every lar 0 bullding in the city was rocked and belis were rung fo soe ee section. Reporis from Bordentown, At lantic City, and other points show that the sock was generally felt througuout the state. PENNSYLVANIA. ‘The shock felt in Philadeiphia was the first noted there since January 8th, 1817. It was of about ten seconds duration, and the undulation apparently extended from northeast to soutiwest, tncreasi ng In Intensity with each succeeding second and sub- Sided gradually. The strongest buildings in the city were shuken, rickety cilinneys Loppied over on the roofs and bricks tumbled down upon tue pave- iments tn all parts of the city. Frightened people rushed into the streets and there was much excitement, especially in the thickly puiated districts. ‘The shipping was likewise affected by the dock. The large ships lading petroieuin in the Schuylkuil river snopped their hawsers, and ‘were only prevented from going ashore by” the ‘united efforts of their crews, Several large steam- ers were thrown strongly against the waarves in the lower section of the city and the crews throw out of their bunks. Huge waves, backed up by tne rising Ude, overfowed many of the wharves and considerabie property was flooded thereby. At Macungie, Pa, Bee was created in the Germ:n Reformed church bui.ding, In which services were log on, and the ory te lige fled precipitately ym the buliding. Afterthe shock services were Tesumed, although the congregation was much Irghtened. At Allentown and Reading, two dis- Unct shocks were felt. Reports from Chester, Har- risburg, Lebanon.
