The Heaviest Shock Felt Since the
Disaster in1906.

San. Fraueiseo, July 2.—Two earth-
quake shocae, the neaviest since the
big &lake of 1906, and separated by
only a, few Bermuda, jarred the -cen-
tral portion a Oalifernia and west-
ern Nevada, anday. The firet sharp
shock, experienced At 2.01 o'clopla
wae followed in a few seconds by
one a eimilan Mtensity, each laet-
Mg about five seconds.
Only trivial damage had been re-
ported frem any section, but' in San
Franeieco and other cities in the an
teated area, panic eeized upon crawda
in stores and restaurants, and there
woe a pell-mell exodue from the large
ae, buildings.
One peculiat feature of the earth-
quake was that it di•ci not appear to
follow the old "fault." in the earth's
crust, winch has been the playground
of tremblers in the paet, but extended
from the sea coma eastward to the
Sierras, includiug hitherto exempt
Mountain areas. It was felt to the
northward of Saoramento, in the Sac-
ramento Valley, .southward as far as
Fresno, and to the east of Carson and
Reno, Nevada, the former place ex-
periencing the heaviest ehock in its
history.
Some slight damage was done to
buildings, in San Francisco, Ileave
stonee in the cornice of the Mech-
anice Bank were moved, slightly out
of alignment, euperfieial crack.% were
made in severer large office buildings,
cornices of the new postoffice
build-
ing were disarranged, and minor dam-
age was done to the interior walls of
a number of other buildings.
Within a few seconds after the first
shock many downtown buildings were
depopulated in a rush to the streete.
le, Telephone and telegraph service was
alf suspended by the eperators dezerting
their pests. Herbert Hadley, a lodg-
ing-bouse inmate, fell dead of fright,
and some cues of hysteria or of cuts
or bruises suffered in the semi -panic
were treated at the hospital.
Santa Rosa, which suffered greater
disaster in proportion to its size than
did San Francisco in 19063 scarcely
felt to -day's shock.
San Jose, another heavy sufferer
in 1906, reported that the stock was
the severest experienced since that
time, but it did no 'serious' damage.
Stockton and Fresno people were
frightened by the jarring, bat there
as in Sacramento, where the State
offices were deserted in a trice as a
result of the trembler, the damage
to buildings was trifling.
In Reno, Nevada, the shook was
scareely felt, but in Clarson it was
severe. The Federal Court was in
session in the Nevada capital, and
Judge, jury and attorneys rushed to
the street.
At the Stinta Clara College Obser-
vatory both reel a were thrown off the
seismographs. They were immed-
iately replaced, but the reeord of the
disturbance will be incomplete.
The mean time clods in the Obser-
vatory el the 'University of California
was stopped for the first time Orem
the great quake of five years ago.
The deep booming reverberance
which usually marka disturbances of
a widespread character accompanied
the first tremer. In San Francisco
the groaning and creaking of the
steel structures played a large part
in frightening people.

AWAITING HER DOOM
Is Mrs. Neopolita.na the Wronged Woman
She Has Been Described?
Sala Ste, Marie, Ont., despatch:—
With the approach of the time for
the removal of Mrs. Angeline Neopolle
tam, to the hospital front the district
jail, where slie is under sentenee of
death for the murder of her husband
on Easter Sunday morning, public feel-
ing, for the most part fostered by Am-
erican journals, who have more desire
tor effect than for facts, is being kindl-
ed to action in obtaining for her a
commutation of the sentence passed
upon her by Mr. Justice Britton at the
Spring Assizes. To show the success
of the newspaper rampage, the feet
may be cited that several sacks of pe.
titions for commutation have already
been reeeired at Ottawa, and each null
brings more.
While the women of Canada and the
United States are invoking every. means
to secure official clemency for her., MM.
Neepolitana, remains the same =per-
turbed figure as she was thrcitighout the
trial and the preaminary hearings in
the police court.
Strange to say, Sault Ste, Marie has
been the last place to mode in her be-
half, if it can be said that a move has
been made. . On Sunday last the first
petitions were placed In some of the
local churches, while ,one prominent
pastor absolutely refused to allow the
petition to be placed in his church. 11
is where the real facts are known that
little sympathy has been shown, be-
yond the sympathy that would natine
any be evinced for a woman about to
become a mother. Had it not been for
this latter fact, it is altogether likely
that little would ever have been heard
of the. matter.
The cry bas been raised that the wo-
man had been threatened with violence
if she dia not retort to a life of
shame; but this is not substantiated in
the evidence which showed Neopola
tam, to be ri hard-working and home -
loving man. It was indeed his wish to
improve conditions that he had gone
away into the bush to work. In giv-
ing evidence on her own behalf, she ad-
mitted that for one week at least she
