R NG Special Dispatch to The Call SAN JOSE, Aug. 2—The heaviest earth- quake sinc: if not in the history of San Jose, occurred here to-night at 10:49 o'clock. Damage was done to some of | the buildings and Mrs. Lusson, wife of Dr. P. M. Lusson, died of heart disease as a result. hotels were emptied and almost the en- tire population of San Jose deserted its homes for the streets. At the Garden Theater there was a panic. People rushed for the streets, a score of women fainted and the actors and stage mechanics became ‘rattled.’” The earthquake did most damage in the vicinity of Second and San Fernando streets. The towers and chimneys of tiie Louise building, the property of the Phe- lan estate, were wrecked and a great mass of bricks and mortar thrown to the street. Windows in the buiidings were broken. It was in this building Mrs. Lus- son resided, and her lifeless body was found on the bed. She had been a suf- ferer from heart disease and fright end- ed her life. Large sandstone capping the Native Sons was shaken Hall at Third and Richmond buflding on Second street. the latter place a block of ma hole a foot deep in the sidewalk. Windows were broken in the business houses at varlous places about tows, and plaster was shaken down. The CruCkEl’)‘ stores suffered severely Guests of Hotel Vendome and the St James rushed from their rooms to the street and many refused to retire again for some hours. A lodger in the Del Mar lodging-house fainted, and it was some time before he was resuscitated. The.big electric tower stood the shock well and swayed bl:; little. A report is current that the Hotel was wrecked In private residences bric-a-brac, crock- ery and plaster were smashed wnd some of the people report narrow escapes from ory reports the shock !h? in the history of the place.

Bay Cities Receive a Generous Jar- ring From Seismic Disturbance. The quiet of the Sabbath night was dis- turbed in more than one household around | the bay last night by a life-sized temblor, | »d the earth’s crust in a man- | ted to leave no doubt as to the identity of the subterranean visftor. The shock, which occurred at 49 minutes and 42 seconds past 10 o'clock, lasted for four- teen seconds. As the tory first, recorded by the delicate needle of Oakland, the heaviest shock came the vibrations being from north to After a moment’s pause a second traveling from east to west, lowed. The shock in its progress did not ignore the ho , the guests of which were not long in recognizing the strenuosity of the titanic visitation, and were by no means slow in making for a supposed place of safety. At the Palace there was quite a commotion in the corridors, where lodgers appeared In all kinds of habiliment, it to the more modest and and pestered the bell boy inquiries as to “what was @ more of the male guests made thefr way to the office about five minutes after the shock wearing assumed express of indifference upon their rather pale countenances, but otherwise noticeably nervous, a condition that be- came more pronounced after they had gathered about an old-timer who dryly related how the temblors of the pioneer days came near destroying the city and how an old Indlan squaw had predicted that some day an earthquake would lay the metropolis low. At the Occidental, Lick and California hotels employes were quickly dispatched to the upper floors, where frightened guests were awalting to be pacified, and in a very few minutes the guests had re- tired to their rooms to return to slumber, or possibly await another shock., In only one particular part of the hotels did the earthquake seemingly prove of any special benefit, and that was the bar. | rooms, which were liberally patronized by aroused guests until a late hour, for nerve tonics were in as popular demand as ice cream on a summer’s night. RO S Temblor Jars Tuscany Province. LONDON, Aug. 2—Dispatches say that an earthquake has destroyed some houses in the towns of Filattlerra and Mulazzo, in the province of Tuscany, Italy. Filat- tierra is a town of 2000 persons and Mu. U |lazzo a town of 4000 inhabitants. They re near Spezia, on the Gulf of Genoa. —_———— SIR THOMAS LIPTON PAYS VISIT TO NIAGARA FALLS Owner of British Challenger Is Enter- tained by Royal Canadian Yacht Club.— NIAGARA FALLS, Aug. 2—Sir Thomas Lipton boarded his special train to-night to return to New York, after a day of trenuous sightseeing, including a Jjolly receptlun by the members of the Royal Canadian Yacht Club at Nlagara-on-the- Lake.

C, Aug. 2—Wilford Roseboro, the negro who is charged with having attacked Mrs. D. Beavers in Ire- dell County, then murdering her and throwing her body into a well, iz in Char- lotte jail. He was brought here to-night safe keeping. Roseboro was captured in Polk County yesterday and taken to Ashe- ville jall. When it became known in Statesville that the Sheriff was coming there with his prisoner a mob began to form for the purpose of lynching Rose- boro. This was just before the arrival of the train. Sheriff Summers eluded the thering mob, however, and took his prisoner to Mooresville by private con- veyance and there caught a train for Charlotte. When captured Roseboro had two pistols and a razor on his person. Mrs. Long of Rocky Mount, who was at- tacked Saturday by a negro, on regaining consclousness said her assailant was named Till Black. He is known and his capture is certain, though up Lo to-night he has eluded his pursuers. ——n EXPECT NEWS OF WAR ON REACHING PORT Officers on Steamship From Orient Surprised by Peaceful Situation. VICTORIA, B. C., Aug. 2—Officers of the steamer Tacoma, which arrived to- day from Yokohama, report that the Rus- sian agents were buying large orders of bean cake at the Japanese ports and stor- ing provisions and war munitions at Port Arthur. Troops were being hurried west- ward and war was expected to occur at any time. An idea of how serfous the steamer’s officers regarded the situation is shown by the fact that the first inqui- ries they made when the pilot boarded the vessel was as to whether any ultimatum had been sent or war declared. TOKIO, July 18, via Victoria, B. C., Aug. 2.—The Korean Government has now declded to open the yrort of Wiju to foreign trade. In this connection the Kokumin publistes a dispatch from its Seoul correspondent that, in accordance with Russian objections, Korea was in- clined to abandon the proposal, but the Japanese Minister notified the Korean Government that Japan already consid- ered Wiju to be open. News comes from China in dispatches to the Asahi that three Roman Catholic missionaries have been murdered by Chi- nese insurgents at Pingli, in Shansi prov- ince. The remaining foreéign missionaries and their families, escorted by Chinese troops, have arrived at Hsunkang, whence they took passage for Hankow. The Chinese Government has consented to the opening of the following port: Nganking, Capo Anhul province; Shang- sha, Capo Hunan; Wunshien, in Szechuan, and the Tungchim“‘ and Hsichiang (East and West rivers) In Kuantung province.

A special to the Miner from Livingston, Mont., says an at- tempt was made by unknown persons this morning to blow up the large Northern Pacific bridge crossing the Yellowstone River east of thig city and wreck the eastbound passenger train. The explosion was terrific and broke windows in scores of houses in the eastern part of the city. No part of Livingston escaped a severe shock. The big bridge was twisted out of alignment. The powder had been placed by inexperi- enced persons and to that fact is attrib- uted the escape of the structure. A large hole was made in the central pier of the bridge. The Northern Pacfic Company has of- fered a reward of $§1000 and the County Commissioners $2000. There is no clew to the miscreants. ———— THIRTY-THIRD DEGREE MASON PASSES AWAY George Sinsabaugh, Prominent in the Fraternity, Succumbs to Con- sumption.
