Senor Alzamora of Peru had just risen to reply when a sharp shock of earth- quake spread consternation through the assembly, and for nearly one minute afterward the gilded hall of session swayed and groaned like the salon of an ocean limer. The delegates sprang from their chairs and grabbed their desks in alarm, but were reassured by the calm- ness of the Mexicans. The proceedings were interrupted for fully ten minutes. ‘When Senor lzamora resumed his speech, he alluded in temperate thoth unmistakable terms to the difficulties which Chile had put in the way of the convening of the conference, and the ob- stacles she is now making to the trans- action of business.
