San Francisco Disaster Almost
Paralleled at Valparaiso, Chili.
Colector Murray Not Guilty Bounties

Silver New G. A. R. Commander.
Biggect Lake Steamer Launched.
Jerome Candidate For Governor.
At 7:32 o'clock last Thursday even
ing Valparaiso experienced an earth
quake of great severity and during that
night 82 shocks were fel.
Most of tho buildings of the city
were either ruined or damaged. The
loss will ba enormous, probahly reach
ing $250,000,000.
Two thousand persons killed la con
sidered to bo a fair estimate of the
cusualtlcs.
Vina del Mur (threo miles from Val
paraiso and having a population of
over 10,000), Quhihue (225 miles to
the southward with a population of
2.500), Salto Limache (15 miles to the
northwest with a population of 0,500),
Qulllota (25 miles to the northwest
with a population of 10,000) and vil
lages all around were destroyed.
Most of the damage was due to fire
which started Immediately after the
first shock.
The whole population is Bleeping In
the hills, the parks or the streets.
Food is very scarce. Milk costs
two Chll'an dollars a litre and It is
nlmost Impossible to obtain meat, even
at high prices.
The railroads are all destroyed.
Rain, which began to fall immediately
after tho first shock, stopped an hour
afterwards.
Tho nights are very cold and windy
and the people sleeping in the open
are suffering greatly.
The captain of a steamship which
has arrived from San Francisco says
that the situation here Is worse than
that following the disaster at San
Francisco.
Collector Murray Not Guilty.'
Fred O. Murray of Buffalo was ac
quitted on Thursday of the charge
of grand larceny In connection with
whut has been known as the grave
yard scandal. Murray was tried on an
Indictment charging the larceny of
$29,304 on June 11, 1901.
After the prosecution had closed its
case, and before the defense opened.
Justice Sutherland directed the Jury
to glvo a verdict of acquittal, saying
there was no proof that Murray had a
guilty knowledge of the transactions
of which he was charged with being an
accomplice.
Murray was county treasurer at the
time John W. Neff was county auditor.
Neft has been convicted of grand lar
ceny for connection with the same af
fair, and is now under sentence. He
is out on a certificate of reasonable
doubt pending an appeal.
Murray Is now collector of the port
of Buffalo. He has been under sus
pension since the Indictment was
found against him.
Bounties on Marriages.
Swift & Co., meat packers of
Chicago, have offered a sliding scale
of wedding presents from $50 to $200
to all men In their employ who will
marry. The reasons advanced by the
company for the increased value of
benedicts are:
A married man can be depended on
better than an unmarried man.
He has Increased domestic responsi
bilities and takes his work more seri
ously. He places his work higher in Im
portance than does the youth whose
brain is filled with thoughts of gliis
and light social affairs.
He Is not as extravagant and flighty,
hence can be trusted In financial mat
ters to a greater extent than the sin
gle man.
The larger a man's family the more
faithful ho Is to his work, his responsi
bility being such that he works more
energetically for increased wages.
Price of Silver 66.62 Cents Per Ounce.
Pursuant to the announcement of
tho secretary of the treasury on Aug.
1st that he desired to receive ten
ders of silver four bids were made
to Director Roberts of the mint last
Wednesday. The bids were opened and
after being submitted to Secretary
Shaw, It was announced that the gov
ernment had purchased 50,000 ounces
of silver, 939 line, at CC.C2 cents per
onnce. It Is not the custom of the
treasury to announce tho name of tho
individual or corporation through whom
tho silver is obtained and hence no
name of the successful bidder can be
given. It Is the expectation that the
government will require from 50,000
to 100,000 ounces of silver per week
lor an Indefinite length of time. It is
(ho purpose therefore of Secretary
Shaw and Director Roberts to receive
bids on Wednesday of each week here
after until further notice.

COTTON STILL If) LEAD.
Iron and Steel Exports Rose to
Third Place.
Refined Mineral Oil Drops From Thlrc
to Fifth In the List Displaced b)
Copper Exports of Agricultural Im
plements Five Time? Greater Thai
In 1896.
Washington, Aug. 21. A special re
port from the bureau of statistics o)
the department of commerce and laboi
shows some notable facts In connec
tlon with the doubling of exports of do
mestlc merchandise In the last 1(
years.
Analysis shows that three classes
(raw cotton, provisions and Iron anc
steel manufactures) had in 190G at
tallied each a total exportation of more
than $100,000,000, while In 189C bm
two classes (cotton and provisions)
ere entitled to that distinction.
In 1900 the articles which showec
each an exportation of between $50,
000,000 and $100,000,000 were five ill
number copper manufactures, refined
mineral oil, corn, flour and manufact
ures of cotton. A decade earlier, it
18!)G, but two Items full Into thh
group refined mineral oil and flour.
In the fiscal year Just ended 17 ar
tides or classes of articles showec
each an export value of from $10,000,
000 to $12,000,000 cattle, leather anc
products thereof, boards, unmanufact
ured tobacco, wheat, agricultural Im
plements, oil cake, bituminous coal
chemicals, oats, vegetable oils, timber
fruits and nuts, wood manufactures
carriages, scientific Instruments anc
spirits of turpentine; while In 189t
there were but nine articles entitled tc
a place In this class Iron and steel
corn, wheat, cattle, tobacco, leather
cotton manufactures, copper manufact
ures and boards.
Raw cotton still occupies first rank
and provisions second. Iron and stee;
manufactures have taken third place
and refined mineral oil has dropped
from third place In 1806 to fifth place
In 19HG.
Copper manufactures also show a no
table growth, having advanced from
11th place in 189G to fourth place in
190G. While flour shows an Increase
of $7,000,0110 In the decade, Its rela
tive position among the leading nr
tides of exportation has changed from
fourth In 180G to seventh In 190G; and
wheat, whose exportation of forty
millons gave it sixth place In 189G, hat
receded to 13th placo, with a total ex
portation of $28,750,000 in the year just
ended.
Agricultural implements exported
are five times as great In value as In
189G, and this large increase has ad
vanced the position of that class from
23rd in 189G to 11th In 1906.
Railroads Raise Age Limit.
Pittsburg, Aug. 21. Railroads enter
ing Pittsburg are In sore straits foi
men to man their trains. Some of
them have raised the age limit estab
lished for new employes some years
ago, while others are abandoning It
altogether. The tremendous Increase
in freight business finds them all short
handed, while at the same time the
Western roads are draining the East
ern market of all available men to
help move the phenomenal crops. Ad
vertisements are appearing In nil the
local papers for men to fill positions as
brakemen and conductors, wages are
being advanced and every. effort made
to Increase the working forces before
the heavy rush of fall freight busi
ness causes a complete blockade.

Mahanoy City, Pa., Aug. 21. Be

50 per cent of their day's earnings to
the family of the victim.

Cadet B?tt?lion Started Out on a
Week's Field Practice.
West Point. N. Y., Aug. 21. The bat
talion of cadets started on a week's
practice march among the mountains

be fought daily.
The miniature army consists of the

pleases him or not, William Jennings
Bryan will he indorsed as the next
presidential candidate of the Demo
cratic party hy the state convention
of Illinois which will he called here to

teeman to vftilch he was elected lu
